Perhaps the kitten isn't the real issue? When I was studying for my A level exams in the uk, I had 7 adorable kittens running wild around the house, but I still managed to get good grades at my exams. The next years, the kittens were gone, but I found it really hard to motivate myself to study, to the point where I even resorted to tidying up the house to keep myself from studying, and when i'd tidied up the entire house, I moved on to GARDENING, something I've never done in my life before. I preferred pulling weeds out rather than sitting down and studying. If you get rid of the kitten, then something else will probably crop up to distract you. As someone pointed out before me though, cats live a long time, if you havent settled down yet, it's not a good idea to keep it as it will be harder to find a home for it once it is fully grown.
