  • Try listening to music without lyrics. Lyrics can be distracting, whereas instrumental music heightens concentration.
  • Try to avoid music that is new. You may find yourself paying closer attention to music that is not familiar.
  • Try to continue one style of studying, such as memorization or math, when listening to a particular type of music.

With both hemispheres activated, the brain can process information more efficiently."

The research also suggested that music, especially classical music, heightened arousal and mood, as it reduced blood pressure, heartbeat and stress."
