Since so many of you are already taking final exams, I worked really hard to get this one done early. Hope you enjoy it!
I noticed the Megaman and castlevania posters! Cool! Ushould do a video about ur favorite games. U see the new ff7 remake trailer?
Holy banana pancakes.... I literally sent you an email two days ago asking for a video on how to make a study schedule...and bam! Here it is! Are you psychic on top of everything else?? Haha...but honestly, thank you so so much for this video, I really needed the advice. Great video as always :D
+Ayamas B drat, my superpower's been discovered! :P
+King of Kings you really have to decide whether your knowledge gaps are large enough to justify showing up to the exam with a severely hampered brain. No one is perfect, and occasionally you'll run into situations where you're woefully unprepared - but I think you should really try to plan ahead so you never have to pull one.
I only did one all-nighter during my college career, and it wasn't even for a test; it was because I started redesigning my site and completely lost track of time :P
SuperTom! Imagine actually having to constantly put up with everyone's mad thoughts...I guess it would get pretty exhausting at times. Honestly though, I think you'd manage to find an amazing hack to prevent you from going round the twist like the other psychics out there :D
Me reading the comments and seeing that the comments were 4 years ago💀
Haahahahaah samee
its 5 years now
*clears throught* 6y

Kiera Spahn Hi beautiful!!
when i feel like procrastinating i watch this channel and it puts me back in the right mind set. thanks.

Get back to work I would say. Focus !!!
work work work work work work
Howd you Go?
@@gemill7870 he obviously failed
hey man, how did u do on ur finals 4 yrs ago lol?
Have u graduated?
I'm watching this video instead of studying for my exams.
So am I 😄
me too
Isn't everyone?
Literally me
mee😂😭
The hardest parts of studying for a final nowadays: 1) Getting started, 2) Avoiding distractions. The rest is easy.
This might sound like a lot but prepping is key! I copied and pasted my electronic syllabus into my evernote and put checkboxes for everything I felt comfortable with. It was a little consuming at first, and stressful considering the time crunch, but once I had a system going it became very easy to follow and I felt more confident going into the exam because I knew what I had covered and what I was a little rusty on. I made sure to focus on what I knew and filled in the gaps as I worked through my exams. I usually get testers anxiety but prepping this way really helped. Also, if you're a nervous nail biter, pop in some gum during the exam. Good luck!
I'm in online class and since the start of this semester i've been paying so much more attention than last semester so i need this to pass my SBQ1's and CA1's. Thanks Thomas!
I love your channel soo much!! Your help and advice is AMAZING thank you from all your subscribers!
Ooofff. My exams are in 3 weeks and this is the first time I will study THIS early and not a day or two before exams and get in 80's and one or two 90's (Mind u, I'm in 8th grade)
Well, partially becuz I didn't understand ANYTHING during online classes and partially becuz I now am REALLY knowing how important education is cuz a LOT has happened during my 13 years of life. And my mom depends on me SO MUCH. And my grandfather telling me what happened becuz he wasn't educated, and how my 8 years of suffering (13-20) will make me live a comfortable 70 years or more and me not regretting anything.
Ur videos and watching other ppl study and be productive has helped me to be SO MUCH and made me be more productive so thank u!
"I don't have a joke for this one" haha!
procrastinating right now...
+JD Eggebraten same gg
+Sonic is the best sign me up

+JD Eggebraten STOP IT AND GO BACK TO WORK!!!!!! :)

Where have you been all my academic life? This is so useful for my 3rd year coming up in uni thanks.
I add books to my reading list almost every time I watch one of your videos.
So helpful, keep up the good work man!
I've been listening to your podcasts as well, they are extremely helpful. Thanks dude for all the great work! Keep them up.
For someone extremely helpful and so informative, you deserve a lot more subscribers
Your videos always inspire me to study more!!! I'm like surfing on youtube.. watching one of your videos and.. ''Nah I need to get some work done!'' Please make a video about memory skills.. Med school needs you!
I am waiting every single day for your videos like crazy. Thank you so much ! I love your videos incredibly much - they are the best amongst all the youtubers :)
My exam is next week, Thanks for this!
Making my google calendar schedule now :D
You are the first person I've started following on TH-cam haha. I love your chanell and have watched more than 10 videos already, and plan to see even more. Thank you for doing what you are doing. Your sharing these great, constructive and motivating advices plus making them sound easy and possible for all to do are making me, and I believe many more efficient and constructive people every day :)
I've noticed you are growing well which is not surprising considering your content is consistently amazing. Well done and keep it up!
I have just reached high school and was struggling a lot. Hope that making a good routine will save from the nightmare
perfect timing! i needed this just now! thank you so much!
this is the best TH-cam channel for studying .Thank u Thomas for bringing us these awesome tips.
I wish I have known about this channel 2 or 3 years ago so that I have planned out my routines and habits on my first 2 years in college really well. The first 2 years of college haven't been too good for me 😂 but now that my third year will start soon, I hope I can apply all your tips and advices and become focused and motivated.
thank you for the fabulous tips you gave! this is going to help me a lot during the coming weeks!
Thank you Man! You Sir are doing the public a huge favour by educating the youth on how to progress. Thank you so much
This channel keeps me motivated! Thank you so much :)
Great stuff thanks mate.
I needed this a lot right now! Thanks as always!
This was INCREDIBLY helpful, thank you!!
Man, you are too organized. You are awesome. I wish, I was like you when I started my college.
I always try to get all the assignments and projects out of the way as soon as possible so I can have more time study near the exams
Great video! I'm definitely going to use your tips.
College in the US is so different from my experience. We rarely have homework and we don't get the chance to earn points during the semester, because the exams at the end of the semester count for 100% of the grade.
The timing could not have been any better! I stopped studying to check out this video first! Thanks Thomas!
That Google calendar tool looks absolutely brilliant. I think i'll give using it a fair shot. Thanks Tom.
Well, this was almost perfect timing. I already had three final exams today and could've really needed some scheduling help...
This was really helpful! i already use a similar style of planning on my Apple calendar but hadn't thought of scheduling office hours or meal times. Forgetting to eat during finals is something I'm guilty of. Thank you for this video! :]
always does good to rewatch ur videos... and.take notes!!!
PERFECT timing!!! thank you!
Love the videos, keep them coming. 👍
1. assess knowladge, identifiy gaps
2. impoertance of classes
3. not important but may be beneficial - identify when is your productive time
Love love 😘this channel l find it very useful my finals a are 20 days away and l have never been more ready thanx a lot keep up the good work....Blessed💜
Thank you very much, perfect timing !
Thank you so much :') am grateful for the tips!
thank you so much, I really needed it !
A little too late for this x.x, but definitely following your advice next semester :D By the way, thank you so much, your videos have helped me to be more productive :D
you are the man Frank!
Thanks for this video! More of these please!!!!!
i come here after an year, your all videos have that effect ! ★
Thank you so much for helping me! I don't know what I would do without this channel lol.
About to create a study plan for an entire month of studying for university exams. AND IS THAT ARKHAM HORROR IN THE BACKGROUND? :O Omg, you're just awesome. Thanks for the amazing tips! Feeling more motivated to start now :)
This is really helpful, thanks!
Thank you so much. I have finals next year. This will help me a lot.
Aww thank you so much for this video!!❤️
Amazing video dude! I was wanted to suggest if you could make a video on the proper way to pull an all-nighter
I honestly face lots of trouble controlling my self to get to study! As I think about what might happen if I didn't finish what I scheduled for my self
What helps me a LOT is to get up in the morning and head to my city's library. The atmosphere gets me motivated and I can't procrastinate if I have lots of people in my back looking at my monitor :D
THANK YOUU, this helped me a lot!
Amazing video! But I was wondering if you have ever considered making a video about how to concentrate just on the study portion of life and not let other thoughts or stress in the way? That's the problem for me, and it is also one of the main things that lead me to a hella intense procrastination.
(Thank you for this channel, I love it!)
wish me luck. have my exam today and I am a big fan of yours.
great tips. totally dying with finals at the moment!
Great video! I noticed how you schedule 1 hour for dinner with friends. How do you manage to stay disciplined to stick to this kind of planning, especially in social situations?
Your videos are amazing!
Thank you! This really came in handy : )
this video is perfect. thank you so much
I like the posters in the background. gives the video a good vibe
hi! i've been watching lots of your videos in a while and found a bunch of helpful tips and i love them!! i'm a first year college student and a person who likes to plan and stay organized. Though, sometimes, i get overwhelmed by planning and replanning (especially in times when academic and nonacademic activities get together so much) all of the things i need to have on my calendar, to-do lists etc. and find myself wasting 'not-a-small-amount' of time . Anyways, i wonder if you're planning to make a video about 'overplanning', if not i would really appreciate if you did!
FINALS TOMORROW!! Helpful video! wish me luck ☺
Great timing thanks! :) My study dedicated time starts in two weeks. (We have a semester of lectures then a month of "freetime" to study and then one 4h exam with everything). Do you have any advice on how to deal with unknown variables when planning? I will have to do an unknown amount of research and work in the upcoming month and take care of someone who sometimes just takes a whole day or evening out of my plan...
Thanks for the video. Could you do a video about how to structure your studying for finals? I a writing finals in March and they will cover up everything i learned in the past 2 yeara in 3 subject. Since this is a lot to learn i don't know how to structure my learning and how to make sure a haven't forgotten everything in March
Duuuuude!!!! 1 million subs!!!!!!!
Congrats!!!!!!!
thank you sir,for this amazing veideo it really useful because there is my exam and i want to schedule.
totally work!! thanks
Please make a video on how to follow your study time table
Please,make a video on how to cover a huge study material piled up along with studying for daily classes and frequent internal exams.
awesome bro thanks you a lot
Just here to announce that ''Syllabi'' is not a word, never has been and never will be, otherwise, great video!
thank you so much for this video ! can I get your help on how to make sure that which subject is of most priority ! I fail to prioritise things and I feel I studied something in morning which I should not have studied
really useful!! thanks
40 days to finals. Really needed this
Great video!!
YOUR VIDEOS ARE GREAT!!!!!
thanks for the tips :)
+ Thomas Frank great video! could you make a video on how we can learn large chunk of lessons in a shorter n effective time span.
You are just amazing!!
awesome tips thanks
This was useful I am reviewing my calendar right now
This is a great video. I'll share it on my channel
perfect timing thomas
It's finals!! thank you so so much!!
Thank you Thomas for this very useful tips and video. I have a question, you mentioned to schedule according to said person's energy level.
Does this suggest that I should schedule in advance and on the day depending on my energy level, I can update the schedule for the day assuming I'm slightly on the lower end.
However, what are the likely impacts on productivity in this case? Such as tasks gets snowballed and other unknown various factors. How would you effectively counteract such a scenario, very much like to hear your thoughts on this! And everybody else's as well. Cheers and good luck to everyone out there.
Hold on, I keep coming back to this video at least once a year but only now I've noticed that you have dinner at 5:30. Whaaaat, I can only have dinner past 8, seems crazy to me ahah. Btw I'd love to see a remake of this with you new super powers to make vids ahah. Keep it up
Thankyou so much!!!!
Love this thanyou so much for this video it he
