After some research I've decided the MILD best suits me. I have a few questions though and would love some tips.

1. How long should I keep repeating "I WILL have a lucid dream and do a RC"
2. Are subliminal aids useful? Any recommended audio aids?
3. What should I avoid eating, drinking or doing before attempting to MILD? Anything I should eat, drink or do?
4. I usually see my friends or some form of water (rain, ocean, pool) in my dreams. How can I incorporate RCs without constantly poking my hands at school?
5. When are msot people REM periods? I usually sleep between 10:45-12:30.
6. Experiences using the MILD technique?

Sorry if it's a lot of questions
