Great question! I’ve watched students study with music (through their headphones) and also ask my helpers and me for silent space so I guess it depends on which has helped you study better in the past. I suggest try both and then decide. As for snacks, my Post-it Note diet keeps me full and energized to answer questions like yours so I recommend it.
