the point of the test is to repeatedly punish users with extra time until 
they learn that the already reasonable 100 second/30 minutes of study time 
is not the bathroom break but actual study time. 

this program is for the worst of the worst as far as procrastinators and 
non-studiers.  

If you have tried the program however and have something that would work 
better for you personally i would be happy to get you a custom tailored 
version. 

Is it working properly for you btw? I have not had a very good success rate 
as far as this program working on other computers. Im still not sure why.
