Not the place to ask, but does anyone have any good study/homework tips for focusing? I have 2 research essays due next week and I cannot focus for the life of me.

Caiti Highly recommend the Pomodoro Technique! 🤘(quick google will explain it best) Helps with sustained focus & mental fatigue. Good luck!!

Elizabeth I would literally barricade myself in my room. Turn off your phone. Go to the library. Try writing your outline and initial thoughts by hand. It's too easy to erase when typing on the computer, then you get frustrated and it looks/feels like you're not making any progress. If you write ideas down on paper, you have them to go back to and they can spark different ideas or maybe be used in a different part of the paper. Don't try to get it perfect the first time - write a rough draft to get your ideas down, then go back and add details and correct your grammar. Best of luck!
