Taking breaks is a good one since your mind needs time to process all the info you have been studying. I try and break my studying down into a few days instead of having to study for hours all at once. I think these are great ideas.

Although my reality is quite different, since I live in Brazil and dorms here are a faint reality, I travel about 1h by train/subway everyday back and forth to college and home, sometimes I think its this traveling that kills me when I try to study. Anyway, I'd like to ask, is there a possibility that the drowsiness is somewhat caused by a hormonal problem? Now to the protein bars, the water and the books!

A lot of friends & relatives have majored in Bio, Pre-Med, etc. so I take note of the differences between the science and arts majors (you'll see their experiences come up in some of my posts about med school, too).

I do that a work, too, when I'm having a really hard time concentrating. Somehow the fresh air & outdoors helps me get my head back in the game. : ) @ Lydia: Taking a walk is a great idea.

But if you can work your schedule around it and discipline yourself (not listen to music, munch on snacks, etc), it is definitely supposed to make a difference. Anybody actually tried this? @ Nichole: That’s a great point–I’ve heard that, too, but I never found it practical.
