Midterms?! CHILL VIBES PLAYLIST �� Need tunes to get in the zone? Create a playlist of instrumentals or classicals! Youtube playlists (there are ad-free ones!) are a good place to start. But, if you need silence to study, that’s cool too! Check out our page on the best study spots to meet you needs :D
UTILIZE CAMPUS RESOURCES Whether you go to McGill, Concordia, UQAM, or any other university, they all offer a variety of study resources! You can find them (which can be study groups, academic support centres, etc.) on your uni’s website and make the most out of your tuition :) Don’tpanic-hereare3studytechniquestohelpyouacethem:)
SLEEP = SUCCESS We’re calling some of you out here. All-nighters are temping (the 3 AM study panic is real), but hear us out: SLEEP IS YOUR FRIEND! Studies show that well-rested brains perform better, so put down the books and catch those zzzz.
