In-Class Strategies
Consider the following general strategies for coping with inattention…
1. Do not sit by the window.
2. Tape record class lectures when possible, or use your professor’s notes.
3. Participate in class discussions as much as possible to enhance your concentration.
4. Try to schedule the timing of medication doses to maximize your class performance.
5. When unsure of the meaning of exam questions, ask the professor. Inform the professor of this possibility prior to your exam.
