I am not sure if this platform can be used for such things but honestly this is the only place I could think of. So, forgive me if I have done wrong.
I am a high school student preparing for college entrance exams. Now the thing is, where I am from, entrance exams are a rat race. It's very tough to land a spot in a good, affordable college. Many students give this exam every year and very, very few get selected.
I am aiming to pass this exam but for some reason I just can't seem to study. I don't have problems understanding, in fact I am pretty fast at grasping a concept. I just cannot sit down and focus. I always get distracted by one thing or the other. I know this is a result of increased screentime and internet exposure in the last month.
I know I can do it if I just start. But no matter how many times I try, I just cannot. I have tried pomodoro, white noise, making timetables. I have deleted all social media apps from my phone. I only use Instagram browser to be in contact with my long-distance friends that too with a feed blocker. I know I need a reality check of some sort.
Recently I have seen my friends studying seriously. They study consistently. I don't have that habit yet and can't seem to form it. Even while writing my thoughts down right down, I feel like a loser who just keeps giving excuses.
Anyone, please give me tips, share your experiences or scold me so that I can sit my ass down and study.

hey! you did nothing wrong we all are here as one and nothing is right or wrong. see there is no need to be that harsh on yourself you just need to balance out your study timing and your screen timing when I was preparing for my college all my friends did the same deleting all apps and so but I didn't do that cause I knew at one point I'll be burnt out also when you don't have something you crave for that more which is maybe why your screen time has increased. you can use the study method if you want but I would say do it freestyle study as much as you can take a break and after some time just give yourself a thought that damn! I'm so stupid I should be studying or everyone else will pass except me. also, see some study inspo videos like those 15-second reels! also just so you go and study I'm gonna say this (you'll be a big failure if you don't study now it doesn't matter that you passed or not you should be satisfied and have no regrets that you studied and all of this is a game of luck)
hope you pass with flying colors do tell me when you get results!
rooting for you:)
