Can you go to the library? Can you get up early in the mornings? Can you get a study group together? What about getting a study partner to work with? Put on a pot of coffee and talk to yourself or sing your notes! :lol Take a lukewarm to cold shower. I always feel refreshed after that. Put on some loud music and dance for a while before starting. Whatever works! Don't be afraid to do something silly that might wake you up enough to get you focussed. Whatever you do, move away from the atmosphere that you are currently in, that is putting you to sleep! :) Best of luck!!!

I do get up about an hour or two before my kids when I have a major test. I make the coffee, and go at it! I also make flash cards, and keep them right in my purse, so if I am at an unusualy long traffic light or stuck in line somewhere, or waiting for anything at all, I take advantage of that time to study. If I haven't made up cards, I keep my text book in the car.

I suggest reading the chapter before class. Type your notes right after lecture.

USe flash cards and keep them with you at all times!! :-) Study EVERY DAY. Atleast read over your notes once a day.
