Okay, um how do you guys feel about doing a lit study day on Saturday at Murdoch Uni Library? I’m thinking we could meet at Maccas at 8:30/9:00 and then bus it there and just sit at a table, do past papers, ask each other questions and stuff.

So, can anybody come?

tbh and dnt mean to be offensive and everything but isnt that abit over the top like i get the subject’s important to you n u wana study and everything but getting together at another place on the weekend just so ur not studying alone is abit excessive dont u think, jst study by urself its not that hard n lits just one subject yeah its sorta hard but u guys dnt do this for all ur other subjects do u? if so ur a study nazi, spread ur studying out dnt jst focus on the one and personally i think the whole idea of getting everyone together and going to a uni on he weekend right in the middle of exams to study only one exam that none of us are going to fail anyways is unnecessary and a waste of time i have other subjects to study and i rather do well in all my subjects then great in one and shit in the rest bcoz i focused to much on one subject sorry guys nothing personal aye i jst seriously dnt see the point.

Well, um, you could have just said no.

And also, I *do* do this for all my other subjects. And hell Emma, I’m not the only one. I know over 6 people who regularly go to libraries to study. If trying and utilizing my time to make sure I get the most productivity out of it makes me, as you say, a “study nazi” the hell I’m a study nazi. Though in reality I’m not sure how that works, considering calling someone a nazi implies that I somehow force people to study or have an undying hatred of Jews, none of which I do.

In addition, studies have shown that having a ‘study buddy’ or working in a group thats motivated towards the same ideals as you is highly helpful in learning the content and cementing concepts.

And yes, while spreading your study out over a period of time is a good idea, I know a lot of people, me included, who find that focusing on one or two subjects a day is more helpful in retaining the information. Forgive me for thinking that going straight from Lit to maths isn’t exactly helpful.

And hell, whilst you might want to do average in all your exams, I want to do *well* in all my exams. Because, guess what, I’ve put this amount of study into all my TER subjects. I’m not saying you should do the same, but I’d appreciate it if you didn’t call me a nazi for wanting to do well.
