I feel like it would ultimately be counter productive but idk what do you guys think?

While a vocal proponent of all kinds of social drinking activities, I personally wouldn't mix studying with any type of leisure activity.

Would you really want to associate fun things in life with this soul-crushing mindless memorization?

lol I tried this some in undergrad and it didn't work well for me. Made me too sleepy, especially for studying (vs paper writing or projects)

Is this serious? 🙂 I would think alcohol would make you less able to concentrate and remember things...

 

[WedgeDawg]

Study beers are a way of life

Only if you plan on drinking during exams as well.

study beers prevent you from studying too much= work life balance= good. Ez

Nah, after a long day of studying for boards, enjoying a cold one while watching sketchy is the highlight of my day

If you're not sipping on a brewski while flipping through anki then you're basically the biggest gunner I've ever met and I don't want to meet you.

If I have one, I will want more. Then I have to pee every 30 minutes, if not more frequently.

Also, I can't focus when drinking.

Same here. When I start drinking the only thing I'm good at doing is continuing to drink

Work hard and play hard, but never the twain shall meet.

Beer is the signal that the end of the studying day has arrived.

 

[ortnakas]

I've been known to have a (single) beer or wine while finishing up studying for the day; more than that is a bad idea.

Only for filler assignments in 3rd year like MedU cases or similar BS assignments that need to be completed for passing.

 

[takeurmeds02]

Definitely not in the thick of studying. If I'm approaching the end of the material for the day or doing light review and I happen to be home, sure.

Def not a bad thing but you definitely have to know your limits. It's really great for like 20-30 minutes until you start getting sleepy and/or over it.

Which a classmate of mine certainly did. (srs)

Non alcoholic beer only
