Since I didn't get into an internship this summer, I told myself I was going to study all throughout the summer. I did fairly well during the first month but got...well...interested in having fun. Like most on here, I study with all of my energy during the school year and at the end, get burnt out. I have since discovered that I cannot coax myself to study even though my chances hinge on doing well on the GRE. I got a study plan but I just...can't.....execute....it. Argh! How do you all focus on whats important? In my SPS tutoring lab we have a picture of Einstein and late at night I would hear..."Don't be a loser...Don't be a loser...ect" But all I have at my house is the constant bickering of my sister and mother. That should be reason enough to lock myself in my room but all I do is play video games or go out. Any advice?
Thanks
Help, I can't motivate myself to study!
Oh my god, the exact same thing happened to me! I was going to study one hour every day this summer for the GRE. I only did it for the first two weeks!
Sorry, I have no advice for you. except look for schmidt.paul's post about his secret to doing well on the GRE. The guy did most of his studying in the few weeks prior to the test, and a monster jam session in the last three days just working the latest ets practice exam over and over, pulled out an >900. There is some hope for us. I'm gonna start studying tomorrow!
