i believe that listening to music while working helps students concentrate because, when i listen to music when i am working, i get alot done rather then when i am not listening to music when i am working i space off and get side tracked and listen to the conversations that other students are having and i do not get my work done.when i listen to music at home i get my work done fast and i concentrate hard. so i believe students should be allowed to listen to music in class when we are working.

Comment on Buzzed – 420 Marijuana Use and College Students by Wh0AreYoU

Im a 20 yr old guy and in college and I finished my basics in 2 semesters and didnt start to smoke marijuana until after the second semester while on vacations(this summer).I used it just about everyday only at night times and it really helped me out with my mild depression and some anxiety issues I was having so I kept on using it. I would inhale the Thc vapors through a vaporizer that I bought online. So the summer ended and I am now in my first semester of my major and I kept on using the stuff every night until I noticed that my grades were dropping and I hardly knew any of the stuff that was on daily quizes and tests so I decided to stop after using it for about the first 3-4 weeks in my major. I was basically just high everyday even though I would use it night times only and had a sense of well being and it really did help with my anxiety/depression but after quitting I realized that it was all an illusion and was just making me think I was “confident” while it really was affecting my learning. i stopped using it,my concentration improved and I began to study more and pass quizes/tests and am now planing on using it only 3 times a week cus my problems came back to haunt me. I am also on financial aid probation meaning I have to pass just about all of my classes(4) but I can still fail 1 class and get away with it in order to receive finacial aid next semester. My financial aid probation is because I dropped a few classes already last semester and this semester but not because I got caught using marijuana. Still haven’t got caught and am hoping I won’t. Good luck to anyone who smokes and is in school.

I’m actually writing a report on students being aloud to listen to music during class and whenever i study i put on either jazz or trance. it keeps me on a quick beat and their isn’t any words so I’m not trying understand meaning or anything. It works very well and i’m not distracted by things like the TV, or conversations my family is having.
