Get a late night job, working somewhere you absolutely have to stay up because its extremely stressfull. Staying up will be your least problem in no time...


Getting up in the morning might be your next one though ;-)

sleep for 4 hours and then get back up. 12 hours later, do It again. This is a more efficient way of sleeping rather than the standard 16 hours awake 8 hours asleep routine. You end up gaining an extra couple of hours a day in awake time, without feeling tired. The only problem is that this rythm will mean that you are not synced with the rest of the world.

All of the above make me sleepy.

Can't really post any suggestions since I need these tips too.
SonuvBob: Yes, the majority of TL is college-aged, and thus clearly stupid.

Staying up is only good if you're in the middle of something and on a roll. Otherwise, get a good nights sleep and go at it in the morning again, late nights and lack of sleep make me less concentrated and motivated to do stuff in general.

Energy drinks are good, Monster, Red Bull are the best, but I think you should just study alot and then go to sleep early.

Hide all your clocks, close blinds, and turn on all lights. Your topic ttile is ironically very correct. In human psychology light levels are subtle cues to your brain that its sleepy time. I've seen studies that allowed people to stay awake nearly all night as long as the subjects were kept busy and unaware of the time. Sort of explains how I can lose so many hours playing SC...

But yeah, often by studying without a good amount of sleep will do a lot less good than getting some sleep, getting up early, and cramming it in.
