Practically each of us either was or will be a student. The study occupies the most part of our life. The student’s life of all students is the same: all students have lectures, examinations, tests. Therefore, all students have common problems.

The first vital problem of all students is their financial state. Students never have enough money, because they do not earn money yet, but their needs are rather high: they need to live somewhere, to eat something, and to enjoy.

Another very important problem is a lack of a sleep. The majority of students neglect their sleep, especially when they spend time, surfing the Internet and communicating in social networks.

Another very important problem is a psychological state of students. The first very difficult period is the adaptation of the freshmen.
