Students: How Many Hours Can You Study Maximumly At A Stretch? by Alikaxon(m): 12:16pm On Jan 10, 2014
I'm a student. This issue is bodering me, I can't study beyond 3hours at a stretch, even if I would like to, my brain or head starts getting hot, my eyes starts straining. Seriously, I'm not happy about it, I hope to study up to 6,7,8 hours, yes, I've alot to do. I write alot; novels, encyclopaedias(non published yet). I'm just forced to stop writing or reading because of my head. And you know the most painfull thing? That is often the peak of ideas flowing in my mind, and I don't intend to stop writing soon, but am just forced to stop, because my eyes re already straining.
Am a fresher, I got admitted newly, I'm wondering how this will let me excel in the school when I resume, I learnt you must read extra hard to succeed in the university.
I'm asking; Am I the only one experiencing this? Or everybody else does too? If I'm the only one, what could be the cause? That is why I created this thread to have your opinions and advice aswel. Thanks.

It's not a question of how long but how well u assimilate what u are readying,nothing wrong with reading for 3hrs straight.

When yours head gets HOT,just close the book,relax your eyes,talk a walk just relieve the stress then u can continue later mayb in a hour time

its actually 'a question of how long'. U should learn to read posts carefully b4 commenting, and try to ensure u answer the main question first before veering off to offer ur own words of wisdom. That being said, i kind of agree with ur point...

Maximumly, and in other to stay relevant even though we aren't students; we work around the clock

I don't read for too long, 5 hours maximum, and that's if I'm solving some mathematics related problems.

Basically, 3 hours, at a full strect. smiley

Well, we don't need to read before we gain more knowledge, we're actually expected to pray to a skydaddy, asking him to provide us with answers during our exams. We're also expected to plead the blood of this skydaddy's son on our papers to avoid having our papers in the hands of frustrated lecturers.


Mehn, I'm yarning trash like it's going out of fashion.

Excluding meal break nd reading all alone without distraction , by d grace of God I do read up 2 10 hours @ a go, nd sometimes a TOTAL of about 15hours in a day.

Often, I read wit passion nd enthusiasm. Mostly, I do nt read just because I must read 2 pass but I read because I find it intresting.


However, without reading morale , I cant stand 10 minutes reading.

If u wanna study a long hours @ a strech, cool down nd find a very quite place, make sure 100% of ur thinking is concentrated in d book in front of u, with passion nd enthusiasm, believe me u, hunger 4 food is d only factor capable of sending a break/tym notice 2 u.

hmmm....

For me, it depends on d subject anyways.
If it's a mathematics related courses...like Maths, Physics etc. I do spend up to 6hrs @ a strech.
Mostly, I like reading @ a conducive/suitable place that aids understanding of what u r reading. Immediately I discover that I couldn't decifer what I'm reading....I quit.

Exactly! Some people just read for the sole aim of passing exam and that's it. It's does no good.

As for me,I would just skim through the reading materials(textbooks,lecture notebooks,jotter,whatever). I don't fancy long hours reading. I feel it's for people who have difficulty in assimilating what they read,unless it's Mathematics and anything related to it. Most time,skimming through a reading material can do much good than reading word for word.
