I have this one lecture that I cannot stay awake in for the life of me. I don't know whether it is the material or the professor, but I just can't keep my eyes open. I've tried chewing gum, drinking coffee, or eating something, but to no avail =(

Any tips on staying awake in class?

Go to bed one hour earlier at night. Your body is telling you it needs more sleep. Don't use caffeine as a quick fix. Listen to your body and stop watching so much television after bed time.

i had that problem too, i tried drinking red bull, but didn`t think that helped much. so i started listening to music to keep me awake, it still helps me, or i write/draw random things down. then borrow notes later biggrin.gif

I have a hard time staying awake in my math class, because it's so boring.

No, it's a stats course, if that has any relevancy to the topic. Hahaha.

I had that problem too. I had a business class at around 1pm 2 quarters ago and I always fell asleep. I knew it wasn't the amount of sleep I get at night because before that class, I was able to function normally.. I'm thinking I got food coma because I always ate lunch before that class, and that class was held in the nearby theater where the seats were super comfortable.. so what I did, was that I started to bring my laptop to class.. and it worked, I stayed awake.. but then at the same time, I barely paid attention in class lol. so yeah, hopefully you have a good attention span lol
