>>13094185>>13096040Kek, this is true but annoys me a little.
I'm studying engineering (yes I know, peabrain) and 99% of my peers work this way.
I personally work well with group study so I try to make friends in class and encourage people to work together and arrange study sessions etc.
But literally everyone at my university doesn't give a fuck and they all leave everything until the last second and don't even do the work themselves anyway, its just this perpetual cycle of copying some pajeet on chegg.
I'm picking up their bad habbits as well.
>>13096033This is good advice, I found myself to be the most productive in my second and third year where they absolutely ass blasted us with weekly closed book tests in every unit so you literally had to be on top of it or else you'd fail very quickly. In my later subjects we mostly do projects that can be put off until the last second then cheesed.
My computer science studies were a lot less like this, partly because, surprisingly, even with things like stackoverflow, there's less resources for cheating in computer science (particularly the discrete mathematics side of things, algorithm design and such), so you had to actually do it yourself.
In summary, chegg is neat but it has made me a worse student and maybe a worse person.
>>13094116Also to answer OP, if you can't focus on the content maybe you don't care about the subject as much as you should, and its not for you?
Its not neccesarily the case though, for instance I'm fascinated by computer science but I think I genuinely have ADHD or some shit and I struggle with focussing as well. So who knows.
