Motivation to Study?

    It's almost two weeks to go and I have very little motivation to study? Whenever I try to study I don't feel like I am taking in any of the information. This is really frustrating as I did very well in the mocks (9 As and 1B) and I really don't want to get less than that in the actual thing. Any tips on how to find motivation to study or how to concentrate more?

    Get rid of all of your distractions, sit down in a room and just try to do the work.

    If nothing is going in; perhaps you're tired and need to sleep?

    Install or buy a cheap ticking timer. Set it for 25 minutes. Make sure the sound of the ticking is loud. Study hard for 25 minutes. Repeat. The sound of the ticking motivates you to try your absolute best.
    Also, you can opt to buy a small notebook and write in whatever you revise, so you know how far you've progressed. It's good motivation.

    Congrats on your mock results by the way. I'm sure you'll do great in the real thing :) Best of luck!!
