What is everyone’s favorite place to study? I have this local, quiet coffee shop with amazing coffee and it always makes studying a little better. Anyone else have a favorite study location?

My wife is also studying for exams as well, so we have a designated study room in our house. That works great Monday through Friday and on the weekends we go to the study room her company has for the actuaries.

My favorite study location is a little place I like to call “Nowhere”!

I used to study in my basement which was so depressing! The library or school were better for me 🙂 glad that's over with

I have followed this chair and ottoman my wife has moved around the house as we get new furniture or rearrange. I follow the chair. Noise canceling headphones are used to get me into the zone and get rid of dog barking or other minor noises.

Sometimes I go to Panera on the weekends because they open at 6 am but today the internet is starting to piss me off

My favorite place to study would be the food court at the airport. It's always open and no one ever bothers me there. Plus, I'll always have food nearby.

I have an office at home which works great as my husband can have 10 friends over on Saturday mornings without bothering me. 🙂

Otherwise I study in my bed as my computer is a tablet or at work when there is down time.
