    Guy next to our dorm room had, no shit, 10 alarm clocks spread all over his room. That way he had to get out of bed to shut them all off. It was both hilarious and obnoxious.

        You can always try a caffeine nap, they got me through a lot of late nights studying in college.

        When you’re tired and about to collapse, down a cup of coffee or an energy drink and immediately go to bed. You’ll wake up in 30-60 minutes feeling… Well not quite fully refreshed, but at least awake and a lot better than you felt before.

        Don’t do it several nights in a row, you’ll quickly hit diminishing returns and you have to pay back that sleep debt eventually; but it can absolutely get you through an all-nighter. Maybe even 2 if you push it.

          When you’re so tired you’re ‘about to collapse’, what’s even the point in studying? Don’t pretend your brain was able to retain any of the words you tried to shove into it.
