Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Heh, yes, I was going to suggest a good focusing screen and a little practice!.!.!. But you're talking about tests, not photography!.

Must have been yahoo seeing word "focus" and suggested photography section!.!.

As to your study - here's how I've done it in my college time:

- Get yourself comfortable, get a book or whatever material you need and begin studying!.
- If you start feeling that you're losing your focus, e!.g!. you read through half a page and can't recall a word, because you were thinking about the football game last night - take a break!. Do something completely different, but not too long (or else you won't be able to finish before tomorrow)!. Things to do:
* Play a quick video game where you don't have to think (I mean QUICK - 5 minutes)
* Eat a quick snack
* Check your e-mail
* Play some music if you play musical instrument!.
* Grab a favorite family album and go through some pictures
* Take a quick nap in a chair
* Do a little cleaning in a room
* Etc, etc, etc!.

Because as experience shows, if you're lost that concentration, and you're thinking about something else while reading - you can't just flip a switch and get back on a subject!. So get yourself off the hook, then go back to the book from a place where you last remembered something you've read!.

If you have to do it every 10-15 minutes, so be it!. Don't worry about not studying straight hours!. You'll learn much more if you're focused!. So as soon as your focusing drifts, switch tasks!. Of course if you're doing it every 5 minutes or so - consider doing shorter things in between, or else it's going to be a looooooong night!.

Good luck on your tests!

1!. Witness your thoughts!. No one can stop thinking entirely; it is impossible!. If you start trying not to think, you only end up thinking about how to stop thinking! What you can do, however, is to withdraw from your thoughts and become more of an objective spectator!.

2!. Picture your mind as a blank canvas or a dark sky!. Allow your thoughts to come and go, but resist the urge to follow each one!. Your brain will eventually slow down and you will feel less pressured!.

3!. Count!. If you find it difficult to let go of your thoughts, try counting slowly as you breathe!. Watch your thoughts and try to resist following them!. Turn your attention to the count as you breathe out!.

4!. Pay active attention!. As you work and think, try to keep your attention on the task at hand!. Be strict with yourself and each time your mind wanders, return it to the task!. As you keep refocusing your attention, your “mind stillness” will improve!.

5!. Still your body!. One sign of fragmented attention is fragmented movement!. For example, when you are at the theatre, it is easy to tell if others around you are fully attentive to the performance!. People who sniff and sigh, move their heads this away and that, and wiggle in their seats are having some difficulty concentrating!. Rapt attention is usually accompanied by still body posture!.

6!. Find a comfortable position and don’t allow yourself to move!. Concentrate on what you are doing or watching, drawing your attention away from physical distractions, and focus your thoughts on your task!. After a while, you will notice that you fidget less and feel less physical discomfort!. You are now channeled into mental exertion!.

7!. Interest your mind!. Try to find interest in projects to help you concentrate!. Taking up a new hobby can be a tremendous help!. You should also try to find something interesting even in the dullest chore!. If you are at a gathering, find someone and start a conversation!. Be inquisitive and you might discover you have similar interests!.

8!. Open the mind!. Just as strength, stamina and flexibility must be incorporated in your physical routine, the mind needs new and absorbing challenges to give it a change from its everyday journey!. Notice something new on the same way home that you might not have noticed before!. Buy a magazine on a subject you normally wouldn’t look at, read it, and open yourself to new possibilities

Get off the computer and open a book!?

Get rid of any distractions- computer, tv, music, phone!.

Shut your door to whatever room you are in!.

And just start reading!.

Yeah, it makes it boring, but whoever said studying was fun anyway!?
