Most students find that a busy social life interferes with their studies.
Or vice versa. You need to adapt your study methods to what works for you. You might find it useful to find out about any resources your university has for blind, deaf or learning disabled students, such as books on tape or transcripts of lectures. I'd love to hear from anyone else who has tried this, as it works very well for me. Sometimes advice and resources aimed at learning disabled students can be useful .
