      If i come home from a day at school and want to take a nap, what would be the best way/method to become lucid during that sleep?

      I'd say WILD is pretty much your only option, but I'll differ to more experienced would know more about it.
      MILD: 0 WBTB: 0 DILD: 4 CAT: 0 WILD: 0 EILD: 0 FILD: 0 DEILD: 0

      Some people can WILD into naps... But I've heard it is extremely difficult.

      If youre going to nap for a while, MILDs and DILDs might work.

      Normally my naps are very short, so I don't normally dream during them.

      WILDing is hard during naps. DILD seems like the better way to go but it is not very reliable. It is more based upon luck.

      I would try MILD or WILD, those are usually better for naps.

      Hm, I am going to differ with everyone on this. When I take naps I usually end up WILDing without too much effort. I find it much easier to do then when going to bed. Thats the reason I love naps so much, I feel more aware of my dreams and have better control in them.

      I can barely WILD, but the times I have have been naps. Depending on your affinity for the technique, it may be useful during naps. If you are reality checking and etc. throughout the day anyway, there's a chance that you'll get a DILD. Maybe do some autosuggestion/read your dream journal before the nap?
