How do you stay focused for studying? Was planning to finish

Try to do a pause of five minutes every 20-30 minutes or so.

lol 150 pages in a day?

It takes me at least 3 minutes to read a page. That's 450 minutes or 7.5 hours. It would never happen.

Reading everything never helps anyway.

What the fuck? How did you get into college

>>15351270
7.5 hours of studying per day is not much, for instance today I started at 0900AM and was planning to go until 0200-0300 AM with a few breaks for food.

Somehow my pauses end up being too long, I get sucked into them

Sounds like someone is an arts major.

I'm a CS major. I just opened a book by Machiavelli and it took me 47s to read and absorb a page. Three minutes is literally elementary school level.

I'm a mathematician and I write more words than I read through school. So a slow reading pace in secondary education seems reasonable to me.

I then read a page out loud as if I was reading to someone. It took 1:55.
How the FUCK are you in college and reading, in your own mind, 33% slower than a calm spoken word?

50% slower*

Thanks everyone arguing how long it takes to read a page. Personally I'm in med-school and it takes me a little under 3 minutes to read a page if I want to retain the information (obviously changes depending on class, language and other factors).
I'm generally comfortable at 100 pages/day since my concentration isn't good enough to just sit and read, so I spice it up with answering questions etc. Sadly I don't always have that luxury, this exam period I'm generally pressed to 150 pages/day.

That's why I want to improve my concentration, especially for the upcoming test tomorrow. Any tips would be appreciated.
