I'm 2 years in. I'm having a hard time trying to force myself beyond 3 hours of study. It's painful.

How i can make those hours feel less anal?
What's your study method?

When I'm starting to feel tired in mid-semester, I try to go to the library, I guess that being around people studying makes me focus. Also avoid distractions, etc, etc, but that shit is never enough for me.

As for study method… I read something, then cover it and try to see what I understood until it is clear for me.

Give yourself frequent breaks. It's unpleasant because your brain is fatigued and need some time to process and get ready to learn more. Use the pomodoro technique; study for 30 minutes, and then give yourself a five minute break. Every third cycle of this give yourself a ten to fifteen minute break. You can play with that and find something that works better for you, for example if you like longer breaks you can study for 50 minutes and then take a ten minute break. This way you can work as efficiently as possible. If your brain is too tired to work, you're just wasting your time by trying to force it to do something it can't.
