60 Best Songs for Midterms Season

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Coastal Carolina chapter.

Midterms are coming up and that probably means we’re all stressed out and having sleepovers at Kimbel Library. Music is a great way to focus for many people especially if you’re trying to tune out the kids doing a group project next to you at the library–but it has to have the right vibe or it’s more of a distraction than a help. So, I’ve created this playlist to help with your study anxiety and productivity as midterms swiftly approach:
