It is common to find people study hard, late into the night during examination period.

Ironically, health specialists says the loose of sleep during these night session could work against those who practise it, adding that any student who does all night reading may be undoing him or herself.
In my own view,i believe students should study throughout the semester,set up study session in the evening because this period is always known as alertness and concentration period.

Students should get atleast six hours night sleep before exam,because memory recall and ability to maintain concentration are better improved when individual is rested enough as well as increasing performance in the examination.
So lets cultivate the habbit of early learning and not just when the exams is around the corner because reading more and more Aid better understanding.

This only works for people who are interested in learning/internalising what they study. ~ My Style wink

If you are reading to pass your exams only, kindly embark upon your usual fire-brigade approach and ensure you review all past questions. ~ No-NO angry

Dear Op,
please, try hard to read at night. It will help you in using correct phrases as your topic next time you want to start a topic.
Thanks. (you can edit your topic now)

I never studied at night, I was always top 5 when a student, Glad I've been vindicated. Listen in class, review notes immediately after class, shun unnecessary activities and use the time for extra study. Then sleep well at night

Read at night all tru my university days at Ife and blasted. Some of my friends can read and assimilate with heavy metal rock blaring out of d speakers. I find it hard to read in the day. So my 6 hrs from midnight to morning sure pass. Understand urself, there are no hard and fast rules to these tins.

Exactly! There are no hard and fast rules to this.
While I was in school, I dont read at nite. I made sure I was present during lectures, whatever was taught stuck till today,any class I miss, whatever was taught was lost too.

I wrote the last CIPM professional exam, due to the nature of my job, I could only read at night, and I utilised it.

Trust me, its 4am now...and I am reading preparing for exams next week...dont ask me where I am...in North America...figure it out. I have been reading like this since I was in Naija n graduated with d best in my set...#check d records# wink
However, doing this a day to the paper u r preparing for could be disastrous becos ur brain would be so stretched...so in that regard, I wouldnt advise it.
Back in Naija, I read almost 3 days in a week, all night (Thursday to Saturdays) because most fridays are lecture free...Its pratically the same here...

Bottom line - My brain dey kamkpe...no lele...as e dey hot!

I'm sure she didnt graduate higher than a 2:2. Rush hour reading can never make you perform better than the material you rush to read. Perfoming better requires reading wider than the notes you were given in class.

Did enough awoko but never really liked it. In university, as a student of graphics, I did my practicals during the day and read my theory courses at night since colours alter at night.

Speaking for myself, a Lastmin.com kind of person, give me assignment to be submitted in 2 months, i wont look at it till 24hrs to submission. (and still Ace it)

One notable things in Nigerian universities is that we read to pass, not to retain..

All the bloody literature, fine art, islamic banking and history i learnt years ago has been of zero value in my life

throughout my days in Ife, whenever i had a paper in the morning, i usually spent my nights reading at white house. I used to move from white house straight to the venue of my exam. No brushing or bathing. It worked for me. Just know urself period!

When educated people share ideas, its better you keep quiet and refrain from being noticed.

Dear "Odunnu the educated people", i can point out at least two grammatical faults in that "innocuous" albeit condescending sentence of yours.... Don't be so damn smug madam, we can't all be "serious".

Yours sincerely,

That guy you feel like banning right now. wink cool
Re: Students Should Avoid Reading Late At Night by GeneralGaricks: 2:33pm On Nov 28, 2012
Any reading that i dont do with daylight, i do not participate. I will just be playing with sleep in futility.

What i usually do is after the everyday's lectures, i retire to the school library and spend 2-3 hours there before going home. That is more than enough time to cover all my books. This is when others go home to unwind and visit friends.
