Why Studying With Your Best Friend Will Get You The A

If your upcoming exam is comprised of 10 chapters that were 25 pages long, then an easy review session the night before is not the way to go. It is super easy to get distracted on your own, making the information difficult stick in your brain properly. Scheduled breaks keep getting longer and longer, and sometimes you just want to talk it out with someone who gets the material -- not your dog.

This is why having a friend in your classes to study with creates the best results. Not only do you have different notes, making it easier to gather all the information needed for the exam, but you can also split up making the study guide. And the best part is not having to worry about not making any sense when trying to grasp a concept. You can make hysterical analogies that will be ingrained in your head forever, because you and your best friend laughed for hours when you came up with them. It's the moments like those that are what helps ignite your memory during an examination.

In continuum, the study breaks are 20 times more fun with friends, and always involve food. Loading up on candy and other sugary substances to keep you awake all night is the best part. The material you are studying is always more interesting and fun to learn when you have someone like your best friend to learn it with you. When the night is getting late (or shall I say, when the morning is beginning), the delirium creates even more jokes, but you have your best friend to push you to stay awake and chisel as much information into your head as possible. You don't want each other to fail, and that is the best part -- you won't let each other.

You have so much more motivation when studying with your best friend because it feels like you are taking on this exam -- basically, the apocalypse -- together. This collectivity leads to the best results: an A.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

We're in college, none of us actually have anything together. In fact, not having anything together is one of our biggest stressors. However, there's a few little things that we do ever so often that actually make us feel like we have our lives together.

1. Making yourself dinner

And no this does not include ramen or Annie's Mac & Cheese. Making a decent meal for yourself is one of the most adult things you can do living on campus. And the food is much better than it would be at the dining hall.
