- We all know that spending more time doesn't necessarily mean better results. I learned that working for 2 hours a day at an intensity of 10 is better than working 10 hours a day at an intensity of 2. In this video, I'm going to share all the strategies that I learned throughout high school, college, and medical school that boosted the value of my study time, giving me more freedom to enjoy other things I love.

@@rodennicosia5081 Lol love you bro
@@CajunKoiAcademy No worries bro 💥🤙🤗
I have been using Remnote for almost two months. In the beginning yes it was all free, but now it has started demanding subscription for things like image occlusion, which as you know is vital to studying anatomy. Is this a foreshadowing of what is to come? Will more and more features be unavailable for free? I made it my default studying up but now I am worried that I will eventually lose data. Should we stick to (free) anki???
My trend is: how I sleep 11 hours a day, and still feel tired
hibernating?
Low magnesium
You probably have sleep apnea.
@@frog6054 maybe that's it?

Most definitely killed mine. Thank you for the encouragement!
Best quote ever
@Probi Guy is by this person Suzy Kassem
Here's my philosophy: forget the grades, and learn what you have to study for the sake of learning. The journey will be enjoyable and grades will come to you automatically.
That's a good advice, thank you🙌
That's what works for me too. As long as I am interested in the subject, I will remember it. Helps finding appreciation for the little things. Love the little aha-moments.
Pretty hard to do when your dad chose your course for you.
This only applies if you actually enjoy the subject
I totally agree. I find learning for its own sake much more enjoyable!
1 hr of focused learning >> than 10hrs of sitting in front of books 📚 , It's all about focus,commitment, sheer will✏️
Bullshit
True
And even if you are a monster that can focus very well for 10 hours straight, it would still wear you out much more, so the retention rate might be lowered simply by the tiredness. To put it simply, your full focus will not be as effective anymore.
1.define what you need to know
Syllabus
Ask 'will this be one the test?'
Ask seniors
Identify weakness(practise test)
2. Go digital
Digital notes
Pre recorded lectures (TH-cam/websites)
Digital flashcards(remote, anki)
3. Deep work
No multitasking
Pomodoro
Make it a ritual(designated spot, playlist, same time everyday)
love it, thanks for this!
Thanks meh🤠
But isn’t this technique promoting studying only for the test (will this one be in the test?). While it’s efficient but IMO one should study to learn something. Every test in high school can be passed with studying a day before (not that you should study a day before).
Tysm
Got a typo there, it's remnote
Also studying for 2 hours leaves lots of free time to workout, read, relax etc... that actually help increasing the quality of your studies
This right here
Limiting environmental distractions + putting effort into hobbies= top tier studying focus
Ah yes, more hours for sleep!
I need help, in how to use exam questions as a method for studying
EXACTLY
1. Define - know what you need to know - teachers, upper class men
2. Digital - notes, prerecorded lecs, flashcards
3. Deep Work - no multitask, pomodoro, habits
I studied for about 15 minutes a day and took am taking calc at age 14. This video is one of the few that highlights the importance of, "Study smart, not hard."
My mom said to me once: If you pay attention in class, ask what you ignore, and share what you know, you will never have to study.
So far that's working for me flawlessly
Good for you to have good teachers and a good environment that can accommodate that behaviour :)
nice sharing! The second point do you mean, ask what you don't know.
You haven't started university i guess
It also has been working for me, I guess It’s because im still on high school
@@gabrielb8712 indeed it works even in university but the topic list is quite extensive and most of exams do not come in classes but in books or databases
They spend LESS time studying because they are CONFIDENT because they have studied WHOLE TIME.. same as a compounding habit.. thats why THEY DONT STUDY 14hrs A DAY AT THE END MOMENT but chill study little bit everyday
This right here 🔥
Nerd
@@dripfoe9569 is that supposed to be taken as an insult? If we go by definition, then you are acknowledging his intelligence. Is being a nerd a bad thing? I do not understand. Please enlighten me.
Wait you mean I ace the exams because my brain thinks “lmao ez”
@@gc4076 r/madlads?
this is the best quality abt studying advice/motivation ive watched so far. most content creators abt life/work/study advice are getting repetitive and sometimes i dont think they were doing it out of quality but quantity for their channel. Thank you for this video!
Deep work is key! I suffered a bit in dental school not putting in the effort myself. Have been working on it since. Thanks for this video!
Most of the time I cram. I feel like every class I take I could ace if I put in the time and effort, but I just can’t find the drive too. Later on I just feel guilty thinking “I should have been studying instead of doing this or that”. I’m sure others can relate
tHISSS! I absolutely feel you. It's just so hard to actually do something when you don't have any motivation :'^)
Me rn i need to study for my exams that allow me to gst into uni but i just cant get the motivation.
thats what im thinling this whole time like on 7th gradr i put real effort to my chemistry because i want to prove my self and i actually ace it but right now i just dont find any good on chemistry anymore
@@diediedice I might be wrong, but you always have motivation, whether it be negative or positive. You have motivation... but to not study, or do a task at hand, but you do not have motivation to study, etc. Try changing gears, and turn your motivation over to studying. Get your notebook, book, or whatever you use to study, and just... do it. Whether you want to or not, force yourself. I found removing TikTok, Instagram, Netflix, and TH-cam to be quite helpful, it gives you nothing to do so you resort to studying.
To be honest I thought the same and what I believe is the solution to this is to set the bar lower. Realisticly speaking having a B or C is good too, but if you only want A's this pressure is gonna take you down in the form of procastination.
Because what happens if you study hard and don't ace? It's gonna hurt your ego and you don't want that.
At least this is the case for me and now I need to work from the bottom all the way up till I'm satisfied with enough B's on my exams.
Quality is more important than quantity right?
Nice, that is it
not necessarily. being consistent is more important. studying even when you dont feel like studying is what sets you apart. once youve reinforced the idea that you HAVE to study at a set time, for a specific period, then after a while, you will achieve that flow required to start building up on quality.
@@vaanya5474 being consistent on studying is literally a Quality work in this context tho. If you study at inconsistent rate, you study wouldn't be as quality as we should be and vice versa
Why not both
Both,
While it is important to nail down the concepts and know everything, practice is so much more important
I have been in a lot of tight situations for exams. What has helped me the most is making a simple list (per chapter) of just the concepts/terms that I need to know. I only write the names (no definitions), and I then realign them from the most important to the least important. I then type out (in my own words) the definitions of the terms without looking at notes. I double-check and repeat. This system has helped me a lot in exams.
I never understood how people could spend like 12hrs studying on the weekend, even when finals came around I didn't study that much. (I just graduated from high school so this was my experience in senior year)I usually gave myself one hour per day at home to finish everything and 2hrs max per day on weekends because I found that having slept well and a clear head allowed me to study more efficiently. And it also helped not to procrastinate when you know you won't be there sitting for hours and not being able to finish your work, it's way easier to get one hour down and put stuff away.
You found your way early that’s awesome
University is a lot different! I was that kid in high school who just paid attention in class and could count on one hand how often I studied throughout the year. In college, you gotta study. Professors often won’t teach you everything in class (not enough time). Not trying to scare you though! It all depends on your college, your major, how well you retain information, etc. I found I had MORE free time my freshman year than I did in high school (because they keep you in class 8 hours a day, in college you control your own pace *also didn’t have any sport responsibilities*). In the end, PLEASE don’t fall into the trap of studying too much. Use your time well, pay attention in class, and study what you feel rough on. As an engineering student, wayyyyy too many of my peers focus too much on school and are missing out on a lovey social life. Each person has a different reason for studying too much, but they’re almost always bad ones. Going into my Junior year now and I almost always leave Fridays and Saturdays for just having fun and goofing off. Gotta have some time for yourself on the other days too though!
So schools & classes are harder than others to the point where even if you don't procrastinate, you still have to study a lot
Highschool is doable with little learning, but depending on your major 2h/day don't get you anywhere on university (Especially math-related majors).
@@albertalman8919 is university just like online classes? Where you are expected to know some of not most of the lectyures before the meet?
how i studied 10min a day and failed my exams 😂
😂😂
Atleast you study
@@al-farizi8756 It usually takes around 10 minutes just to get into flow state so 10 minutes does absolutely nothing lmfao.
Bro same i mean i didnt fail but i got so many C’s so yeah
I got "a" and i read the subject only the day before it , idk how I got a as my grade
Awesome video. I have so many hobbies that I absolutely refuse to give up for the sake of studying so this is right up my alley
Thank you so much for the help. Now I’m excited for my next study session.
I think productivity lies in doing your daily duties faithfully. I have watched all these people studying 12 hrs per day and tried to do the same. But after sometime it only becomes a hassle. Someday I study 5 hrs someday 2 hrs and my grades are well above avg. Do your thing and then enjoy your day as u wish. Maintaining a well balanced system will help u not only be good in ur studies but also in other parts of ur life. I have personally tried studying 12 hrs per day. Let me tell u after 5 6 hours nothing enters. I just sat in the chair mumbling the same thing untill the timer runs out. I'm very happy that I discovered this video speaking the truth and as a result I'm leaving this huggggggeeeeee comment. You gained a sub😊.
It's great to try out different approaches to learning , but in the end you trusted in yourself and what has worked for you. I think that's what matters most. Welcome to the fam :) what do you study?
@@CajunKoiAcademy I'm in medical school too.
After 5-6 hr nothing enters? Man, there is some patience too... Try to do it for 2 months and ur productivity will increase.. but most people quit after just days..
@@govindam_adi_purusham7724 It's not about quitting or not quitting. It's about getting things done. So many people on TH-cam doing this huge study sessions and I have nothing against them. You can study whole day for all i care. Being productive doesn't mean working 24 hrs a day. Since this video talked about this recent trend I wanted to share my viewpoint about devoting my time to studies and other activities. However this is a highly individualistic approach. Some people think the more the better some don't and I won't force u too follow my view either. You know what works for u and do that.
@@bhiswadev2882 it's very individual, yes. I know this is a old comment, but for anyone reading I wanna tell you to just try it out. Don't blindly follow guys that study 12 hours a day or those that say 2 hours is enough. Personally when I'm in the zone I can study 12 hours a day efficiently. But it took time to get used to it. I also study 2 hours a day when I'm not feeling it. Just try to increase the hours and see what you can do and what works for you (I'm in Med school)
“I did pretty well”
*Gets valedictorian in his class*
What is that? I'm from Europe
We have that slightly different in Finland. Valedictorian is the one who gets most points out of final exams, cumulatively. So I became valedictorian by taking more than anyone else by accident, and getting mediocre grades without ever studying for them. The second best had to give the speech that year, I was awful at public speaking.
@@RoyalRhino He earned the highest Grade Point Average out of all the students in his class.
@@SETH_SOT no, well probably, but its not just that. valedictorians are supposed to be the model student academically and the model citizen within the school and city community, so extracurriclers, sports, community service etc. play a big role as well, pretty much always the valedictorian will have an expentional GPA, but not neccearily the highest
@@codingwithbobby8340 primarily GPA my friend
Great video, I loved it. Some tools I already use, but I will try to implement the rest.
Thank you soo much this helps me a lot and I love watching your videos ! keep going!
“The teacher will tell you what you will be graded on”
Me in science class: Excuse me Mrs. so and so, what will we be tested on?
My teacher: *You’ll see on the test.*
she's sent from hell
And then there is my teacher: Everything
So true T_T
exactly lol 😭😭
or, "everything"
From what I’ve heard from Elite students, in advanced classes 4-7 hours a day should be enough. If you need more you are being inefficient. You do need some quantity but it has to be a quantity of quality hours. 2 hours a day can work of course if you mass it over time. 2 hours each day is better than 6 hours the night before an exam
Also is there a potential replacement for Digital? I think Digital works well for the accessibility but what about scenarios for people who like a more “organic” approach?
Tbf I can’t replace digital accessibility. But I’ve always done better in in person classroom settings
A video on how to watch pre recorded lectures effectively would be amazing!! Thank you for these videos!! ❤️
Omg, I love your channel so much!! I found your channel a few days ago and you guys give me motivation, inspiration and a lot of study habits to try :)
Father always told me that it's better to study everyday, even for at just 15 to 30 minutes. Because then you won't really have to cram and study everything all at once
Cramming is too stressful
I'm your 101th like
doesnt work when your workload makes it impossible for you to study. what are you highschool?
@lordlopikong6940 then reduce your course load and stop being a victim.
Thank you, I really needed this. I have been indirectly discouraging myself by watching all those 18 hrs study vlogs daily and feeling I'm nothing compared to them...I have always been comparing myself to those who study for more hours, because I just can't. I have always been that student who studies less hours, and still gets more marks but ever since I have tried to up my hours, my performance has fallen tremendously....now I will go back to studying less hours and efficiently and see if that still works for me. :D
Atleast I wouldn't criticize myself everyday and actually be in the moment while I study. Currently I'm also working on fixing my schedule, so, yeah - LETS DO THIS.
haha yea forget what they tell you and trust in what has worked or you. I'm with you on this, LETS DO THIS!
@@CajunKoiAcademy Thanks. This motivated me a lot. Ima go and study now :D
Same, I bumped up my studying hours and gave myself less rest, I felt burnout within a week, I labelled myself whatever negative names I can think of. Oof, I got real depressed for the next few months, no motivation whatsoever, falling behind school work, not energized... Soon enough, I just realized that I don't have to be these people. My own way worked so I should stick to them, I don't have to compare myself with these people. They are just here to guide us :)
I really found comfort in both of your comments, so thank you so much for mentioning your own experience too. I relate so much to this and I might not have even realized the reason why I am feeling so burntout might be that I am trying to be someone I am not, everyone studies different and that's totally fine! Let's all together try to do what makes us feel best and more productive than what appears to be good on the surface but would not work for us. Best of luck!
@@nadaalghussein9881 yes, absolutely. Glad it helped you. Best of luck to you too! Oh and best of efforts, because luck might not work but our efforts and hardwork always do :)
man, ur so chill in explaining stuff, you should see some other guys doing what ur doing they litrelly just intend to flex , or pick themselves up
Ever since hs, I never cared what the percentage of a certain exam is or what questions will likely to appear in an exam. I enjoy the process of learning so I would naturally try very hard to understand and learn the topics. My grades would just follow. Amazingly, my grades were really really good! However, with the quantity we need to learn in medicine, my previous methods were simply ineffective. I was forced to study the testable materials and let go of my principles.
I studied only a day before the exams for two hours. To be honest, I didn't "ace" it,but I also knew I could if I wanted to. All thanks to Allah for the good grasping skills.
I’m assuming not everyone uses the word “ace” right? What do you say?
@@CajunKoiAcademy let's say I Ducked The exam :D
Im kind of the same. Absorb stuff really quickly, dont do so well when I dont try though. Not a genius after all
Same. Never gotten worse than a C even though I barely studied or did homework until university. Never been a straight A student either. Fast learner and easily reach conclusions on my own, permanent underachiever thanks to ADHD.
Nothing is thanks to Allah
I think its about consistency , even if you study 1 hour everyday , you'll be able to crack all your exam .
Consistency is underrated
Ahhh.... Not really
You can't
1 hr not close enough for indian exams
@@jim41 depends on how u spent that time and the major/ subject
Thanks buddy , this video motivated me and I feel like I can do it and I got more confidence now , and also thanks for yt for recommending this
Thanks so much...really needed this 😅
TH-cam’s getting real comfortable with these studying recommendations
I personally love the Feynman method. I tend to be the person who gets asked to teach others how to do things a lot at work. And its made me have such a strong understanding of the processes and procedures we use.
NO WAY i love remnote and the recent app launch made it sm easier to navigate on my iphone! thank u sm for itt
I am grateful for such a video because these three D's are worth a try.
Interesting how different my experience was. I was a high performing student who barely studied all through tertiary education, and I did almost nothing except learn in class. Usually taking notes at the rate at which I was understanding the lecture, letting myself fall behind to think if I needed to.
In some harder courses I had to study a bit for the exam in order to learn the things that you only learn by applying your knowledge, but in most courses, it was only a matter of confirming my understanding.
I found a focus on understanding rather than optimizing for the exam gave me a bit of an advantage in classes whose professors liked to throw in never-before-seen trick questions on their finals.
Sounding like a true life long learner right here
I do the same yet my marks still arent the good
I do the same in some classes and I love it but in some others there's just a lot of memorization and stuff
I study like 2 hours a month lmao. I rarely ever take notes and I definitely wouldn't ever review them. The way I retain information is by asking questions in class constantly. A solid 10-20 questions per class per day and I no joke have not gotten anything under an A for any exam or final grade.
Studying works for some people but not everyone learns things the same way. For some people, studying might even make you do worse because reviewing notes on a topic that you don't really understand isn't going to change anything. You didn't understand when you wrote them down, you won't understand when you review them. For these people, I recommend instead asking questions about things you don't know. Don't be afraid to ask questions you assume everyone else already knows because if you don't know, most likely others don't know either and you'll be doing them a favor by asking. Look up external reviews and explanations. Sometimes I'll reference video essays on the topics that I'm trying to write about and form my ideas based off of that. Maybe even try to explain/teach the concept to someone else. Often times you'll find that you understand it a lot more than you thought you did because in trying to find a way to explain it in simple terms that others will understand, you'll find yourself understanding it even more.
If studying doesn't work for you, then don't beat yourself up over it. If you're spending 10 hours a week studying or 10 hours a day studying and it's doing nothing, then you're wasting all that time when you could be trying different methods. This idea that you NEED to study to be successful in school is silly. When I first started working on cars, I could've read the service manuals a hundred times over but it never would've worked as well as actually doing hands on work. When I was learning physics, I could memorize all the concepts and formulas sure, but none of it stuck as much as me connecting the concepts to my real world experiences.
But of course, like I said, everyone learns differently. If studying works for you, then more power to you. It's never worked for me and I'm okay with that. As long as you find something that works, that's what matters most. When my students tell me that they just don't understand the material, I ask them to explain what they do know to the best of their ability and I'll fill in the gaps, but for the most part they actually do understand the material and just let that uncertainty be the reason why they got answers wrong. They doubted their answers so they changed them to what they thought was right, only to be wrong. That's the way the cookie crumbles I guess
So you are basically using actuve recall without knowing it?
Same with me I study like two hours each day of what I don’t know, or clearly understand. Also any advice for becoming a civil engineer like what can I do to get practice. I’m 15
what's your major?
 I have an associates in English and in Sociology, bachelor's in English literature and minor in French, and currently doing a master's in Education with a focus on curriculum and instruction. So I'm a bit all over the place lmao, but my overall focus, and the reason I chose everything I did, is on education and how I can be the best teacher I can possibly be. Sociology has really helped me out massively in that respect.
 my advice for you is to not get so hung up on the details. What matters is that you become a civil engineer, it doesn't matter if you do it in 5 years, 10 years, or 30 years. All that matters is that you end up accomplishing your goal.
To that end, I will say this, make sure that every A and B is a moment to be proud of yourself, and everything lower is a learning experience, not a punishment. Grades are meant to tell you where you're at, not a punishment and certainly not for your parents or anyone else to look down on you for. Far too many students were raised in a way where they do everything for everyone but themselves. They get good grades and the first thing they do is show their parents because they want to make them proud. That's fine, but they should really be proud of themselves first and foremost. Never set goals for others, it's your life.
Lastly, you might experience "senioritis" your senior year, but I'm here to tell you that there's no such thing. It's not you being lazy and just wanting to graduate, it's the fact that your whole life you were told that graduating high school was a huge thing and that it's a massive goal. It's been your whole life and you don't know anything else. What's really going on is that you just achieved a big goal for the first time and you just don't know how to handle it, so you ultimately feel underwhelmed, and now that you finished this goal, you no longer have any drive to "reach the end" AKA "your goal" so you really need to make sure to have lots of goals ready. Keep your eye on being a civil engineer and stay motivated. It's your life and you're the one who decides how far you make it, so make the most of it and above all else, enjoy the journey. You'll only ever get to enjoy youth for so long and you'll never get to redo this, so seriously, take it slow and breathe a little. Enjoy what you have and minimize your regrets. Participate in school events, go to games, go to the dances, join clubs, and just enjoy being young with minimal responsibilities. Worry about being a "grown-up" once your bones start hurting lol.
Great information. I wish I had had this knowledge years ago.
dope man thanks!!
I actually used to and still study 2 hours every day. Without any suggestions, even was not aware about this video. And currently, I am on the verge of completing half of the curriculum by myself within 3 months. This is very useful for a person like me, who has to attend 6 hours of online lectures, 3 hours completing assignments and projects, while preparing for my University Entrance Exam and the admission procedure at the same time.
pre-recorded lectures worked great for me.
live class were pure chaos for me.
pre-recorded lectures are very peacefull, lets you time to think when you get stuck.
💯%
Pre-recorded lectures are actually really bad for me because I have bad perfectionism and I will spent 2 hours taking notes on a single lecture. In person lectures force me to write down only what’s important.
@@terrasai2857 don't write down during lectures (at least if it's recorded), coz that would make you focus on writing instead of learning. Listen first and _then_ write it down later.
I just had an online instructor led course that I swear was pre-recorded and played back in real-time. I couldn't stand it, so I recorded it using OBS then went and took notes on another subject. Once the online course was finished I replayed it at 2.6x. I think it's all the little things we can do to make learning more efficient that makes the biggest difference.
Great video! I already use Anki to learn new languages, so might as well use it to learn things like math and programming too.
I struggle with overcomitting. This was eye opening. I will try this!
In James scholz’s video he explains that consistency= time x Focus so it’s not only effective asf but also a long period of time and since he’s used to it and built up that drive, it’s healthy too, you gotta have that balance.
I love how you casually say that you were valedictorian of his class, very humble man
Thanks for the tips
Thank you, appreciate this video
I always study for more than 15-18 hours a day, seriously. I would spend my whole week focused on school, literally. It's so stressful, work keeps on piling up and I can't fall since im aiming for high honors. I always cry it out since my math teacher just make it worse by not explaining the lesson clearly, it's so tiring that i cut myself whenever i get low scores. I don't know what im doing anymore with my life. I fear growing up.
I’m sorry 🙁
you can read your maths textbook to get to know how to do it. thats what i do when im stuck with something, either i read the lesson or search how to do it online and you dont really need to study more than 8 hours a day imo. spend more time on something you're interested and then start studying again if you really want to. you sound depressed 😐
If you're in high school, it's simply not worth it to spend that many hours a day for school. Whether it's just as a personal challenge or if you want to be able to go to top, top schools. These top colleges look at the student overall. Their school spirit, their involvement in their own high school, and extracurricular activities. Another thing that is heavily looked at is SAT and ACT scores. I don't remember off the top of my head but many top schools require a score of something around 1300 and 25 respectively (it's different for every school).
If this is for college, however, it's still not worth it, no matter the major, to go for high honors. Just aim for 3.2 or higher. Unless you have a scholarship that requires a minimum GPA or if you're in a program like nursing where you need a higher minimum GPA.
Schools/employers don't just look at GPA or scores. They look beyond that. They look at how motivated you are for your school and for your future. Any clubs that you join or any orchestra/band or any competing that you do for your school they'll look at all of that. You can even pick up competing in math or reading or anything of the such.
Anyway, I wish I could help you a lot more but I really can't since I don't know your situation that well, I would love to know more about it so that I can assist you more. Feel free to DM if you'd like.
Spoiler. In 10 years time your grade wont matter. Enjoy life
Hey, I'm sorry to hear that. All I can say is I recommend taking up something you're interested in and makes you feel good (like training your body). It'll be much easier to study if you feel better about life. Hope everything gets better!
This video was very helpful, I could never study 10-12 hours in a day, I know I am capable of doing it but I'd feel very guilty for not contributing with the the chores of the house or for not being able to have a job and have my own money
thanks for sharing the tips
Imma try this thanks for the tips
I always used to tell my friends the reason why we seem to know the work similarly well before a test, but I get 20% more than them, was purely a confidence thing.
I don't know how you can build confidence, but once you back yourself everything goes way better.
This doesn't just apply to school. Makes all the difference at work as well.
I need less time studying! I am on call 24/7 in a small practice and I have children. Not every student has over 2 hrs a day to dedicate to studying. So I really appreciate this video!
Wow you sound extremely busy that’s great that you found the balance
aww all the best, I hope you're able to balance life well
Thank you so much for all your wishes!
Bless you!
Really appreciate these tips for a post-grad mum of 3 like me ☺️..thanks a million!

Why people on TH-cam teach better than the college professors?
youtube teacher go big because of viewers a.k.a real students' approval. professors are most likely good at studying but some of them are naturally inept at teaching
Because college professors don’t need to be good teachers to get their job. They just need a degree and some good connections.
@@roamingmompreneur792 That makes sense 👍
A lot of college professors didn't actually sign up to teach, they signed up to study/research at the school and teaching is part of their contract.
Because you choose to learn.
The exams I spent the most time studying for were often the ones I did the worst in 😂.
Lol don’t over think it
Mike and Matty ❤️❤️ be brave U can success 😇😇😇.

Love the perspective and facts here! Study smarter & not harder. Thanks for the great content as always guys!!
Thanks for the support and hope you doing well man!
THANK YOU A LOT !!
so much helps . i hope we get better every day
I have a job, a side job (design), art projects, volunteer work and clubs along with a full school schedule so it's so important for me to take as little time studying as possible. I also have to spend time with family and help clean. I have to exercise and care for my mental health (I have bad anxiety and depression). It's just insane so like, studying one trillion hours a day kills me inside.
I'll be having my CPA licensure examination in 2 months time and i wish i found your channel earlier. I'm on day 3 of incorporating active recall, spaced repetition, interleaving and ofcourse RemNote all of which i learned from watching your videos. All i could say is that the quality of my study time skyrocketed! I cant express enough how I'm thankful that i found your channel ☺️
How did it go? Hope it went well 😊
This is some really good advice.
Thank you for this. :))
Thank you so much! 👏🏼
I hated seeing people study for so long each day. I’ve tried it and it leads to burn out so quickly and the quality of revision towards the end of my revision wasn’t good. Not only that but I wouldn’t have time for the stuff I loved doing like gym and TH-cam.
Little but often is better 🔥
Haha yea gotta live a little
I watched all these videos and honestly wanted someone to make a well thought vedio on the subject.
I expected such a video to just ridicule those , but you not only did that and then went on to address the actual problem.
Thanks you
Sir
Appreciate it !
pomodoro changed my world! Thanks for your video
Good content 👍 keep. It up bruh ✨
What you said is true. No one has a lot of times dedicated just to study especially during the pandemic. Your video is great. Done subscribe!
Thanks, welcome to the fam! What do you study?
How to Study 2 Hours a Day and still ACE your Exams?
Start a year in advance
Thank you!
Thank you 💌
This is soooo trueee
Finally something relatable jeezz
Great topic! Thank you for that.
As an adult - I don't have the privilege to glue my back on a chair and study for long hours, even though I did so when I lived with my parents. I am still getting good grades. I feel smarter now because I'm having to do it in a short time.
The constraint of time has trained my brain to process information faster. When you have to work a real job - this skill comes handy.
Such a valuable skill, as long as we are willing to invest the effort up front
Thanks bro ❤
Thank you soo much for such a wonderfull ideas...to study..it was very difficult to study up the medical stuffs after soo much hours in journy from collage to home but still tiered finiding easy with this time table...thank you soo much ...
This was a fresh take on this topic, loved it!
In the starting of our year our energy is pretty much high for doing better in studies so at that time if you take your energy as an advantage to learn more then it will get easy for you (in future) to study.
THANK YOU ❤
thank u so much you don't know how you have imapct positively my studies; thanks to u i got better grades and keep the balance between my personal life and studying thank u so much
Thank you for this video. It is likely undervalued by many.
Thanks for taking the time to watch
Although I agree with every point in this video, I have to emphasize the fact that time is equally as important as the focus.
Actually Cal Newport said himself that productivity = time*focus.
I think people forget just how knowledge can compound: the hours you put on in first year of University helped you understand the 2nd year faster all the way through year 4. You can't cheat time. The longer you can study intensely, the more productive you become.
very true! you have to optimize both for sure
Agree to this! That's why I'm reading and trying to be productive than before. Elementary to Senior High school I was so uneducated, stupid, playing games, wasting time, and focus to my passion. Now I'm in college I'm trying to improve myself. I think I can be a better student if I'm always be productive everyday.
Great video
Quick Notes:
1. Define - Syllabus/ Teacher, Ask Seniors, Identify Weakness
2. Digital - Digital Notes, Pre-recorded lectures, Digital Flashcards
3. Deep Work (get in the zone) - Stop multi-tasking, Pomodoro, Make It a Ritual
10:07 caught me offguard. I was doing exactly what he said and it felt like a 4th wall break 💀.
Same 😭
Or just study a reasonable amount of time like 5 or 6 hours:
*Wake up at 7am
*Start studying from 8am to 11am
*Rest for 1 hour
*Study from 12am-2/3pm
It really is myth that you need to spend 40+ hours on studying. It's much better to work 30 hours for an entire year than burn yourself out within 1 semester.
Note: I'm in engineering so we don't really need to memorize things so not sure if my metbod works for things like medical school
Thanks, Creed! I miss seeing you around in the office! What have you been up to?
😊 thank you so much
