How I got a 4.0 GPA in my comp science degree: 1) Aim to be smarter than your professor 2) Read you text book(s) cover to cover (or the chapters required for your course) 4)Do sample exam questions! 3)Always try to understand everything you read and link ideas together from your other courses. Don't memorize! 4)Don't rely on your professor 5) Use mind maps
I don't understand why I lack so much motivation, I don't dislike school more than the average person or anything. It's just once I'm at home I just don't feel any pressure to complete homework or revision.
+Elana Marie i have the same problem too! What I do is I stay at school longer to finish homework because i'm more productive then, but that's just me. XP
Stay at school and study. also, If you feel like studying is hard, try to tutor someone less smart than you. Just find someone you know is struggling, befriend them and then talk about school with them. if you do that, they usually will talk about how they are struggling in the class. Then ask them if they want you to help them by tutoring them. If they are serious about school, they usually will say yes. Tutoring someone will force you to study and learn.
exactly! Like I'll not do so well in a test and be like OMG I'm going to study my ass off and pass the next one and then I see how much I have to do and end up procrastinating.
I think it's so important and I loved how you started the video by addressing mental illness. Mental health does need to come before everything else because if you don't feel good on the inside, you won't have motivation to do anything, let alone study. I'm taking a semester off now because of depression and I'm finally reaching out. so thanks for that
k farah I have problems starting conversations with new people that's another reason why it's hard for me. I'm scared to go to college because of that and social anxiety):
i know right. im also so worried and uncomfortable about being seen alone, but also just as uncomfortable sitting with someone and having nothing to talk about, im a mess.
I hope that by the time you graduate you're able to get over your social anxiety and learn to handle group work. Life after college is nothing like college and social situations, whether it's with your boss, peer, or team is probably one of the biggest factors that everyone has to face. How you present yourself to others, how you work well alongside others is something that I wish college would have pressed on more. Also, getting an A or a 4.0 is great, but the real understanding of achievement comes when you realize perfection is not possible in real life, and you don't get graded at work. I highly recommend people find a part time job, internship or summer program during their college years so they aren't completely shocked after college (which happens to a lot of ppl!) Best wishes in your college success!
i just have 0 motivation to study tbh thats my problem... and i'm the type that when i see how much i have to study, i get even more discouraged and would just choose to procrastinate studying. which means i'm sorta doomed since i'm in my final semester in university T_T
+kyufail There is a great course on coursera called Learning How To Learn that i feel would greatly benefit you. I was a huge procrastinator myself but after taking this class i feel more efficient in my studying habits. Try it out :) www.coursera.org/learn/learning-how-to-learn/home/welcome
I've been in your situation and you just need to look at it piece by piece because (according to my personality test) you can get overwhelmed and lose motivation when you end up stuck.
i think thats exactly how i feel!! i just finished my finals and truthfully how i managed was to break it into small bits so i dont feel like i'm suffocating xD thanks for replying :D
Really great tips! My 'method' of maintaining my 4.0 is to work backwards. So, at the start of the semester I look at the unit outline, and then work out where I need to pull my weight and really apply myself. I then plot this on a calendar to prevent a burn-out on assessments with a small weighting.
This was helpful but I think it depends on your major. For instance, in hard sciences you have less leniency on just dropping and picking up other classes. This was a nice overview of courses you want to take. But if you're in the social science/humanities you have more range of options versus a Chem/Bio/Physics major. I appreciated the video though but I'm a in STEM so a lot of these ideas don't fit well within my college experience but they can cover a good amount of people!
Lauren Delgado Very true! I am pursuing a STEM major, and feel that they're binding on a student's schedule, and require a very different approach to learn! The video was well explained though :)
I will personally agree with everything expect the idea of changing of your classes. Here in the united states, when you choose a major in university, you cannot decide which class you want to take. There's four years in university: the first 2 years are for your basics, the last 2 years are classes for your major. For your basics, you can choose any humanities, upper division course or language that you want to take. Expect that you have to take a certain a math class and a english class based on your ACT or SAT scores. For your major, take it or leave you have to take the courses listed on your degree plan. If you hate a class that's your degree plan, too bad. As a psychology major at ENMU, I have to stats 213 and it sucks bad, but I have to take it to pass and move on and take experimental psychology 337 I and the second part of experimental in the spring which would be 338 II. If I don't pass 337 I, I have to wait until the fall semester to take the class again because it's on a class rotation. When on a degree plan, you cannot decide if you want to take the class or not. You can choose to take it online or at campus. But that's it.
Gabriella Montez what do you.mean you can't decide what you take??? is my uni that weird, because other than the core of my MAJOR I can take literally anything I want to...it's technically required you take one class in each gen ed section, but that's why you take the CLEP if you're not interested in x gen ed subject, or just take the intro course of it if you can't place out...I'm pre-mad, medical lab specialization, with a Japanese major as well and I take random classes that interest me or fit my schedule. my first 2 years were one semester of gen eds, 4 semesters of my Japanese major, my last 2 was all my med lab classes and 1 yr more for the required internship but i had plenty of flexibility especially with the summer semester (most mls majors just had a year gen eds and 2 of major classes and their last year, 4th, was the internship. i had an extra year because i couldnt fit everything with those two very different majors😅). I guess you're stuck in a block and HAVE to graduate in 4yrs maybe there's not as much flexibility but past your major requirements and the 6 to 10 gen ed classes, there's usually quite a bit of wiggle room to get the amount of required credits to graduate. I know business degrees are very strict in when you take things and what you take but most majors jst have recommendations and give you the freedom to study things you want -that's the point of college, finally being able to choose what you learn..though that's very flawed in the states and still has pointless general requirements but you should still have room for other areas of interest outside your major. I'm just curious if uni here have all different crazy ways of doing things, since what you said is so different that what I'd experienced, that's all.
I also am able to pick and choose for the most part. My major and the arts degree itself has a few core papers which are a bit of a drag and that you HAVE to do, but for the most part you can choose whatever papers you want for your major/minor and obviously electives.
Well I think she also might have meant that if you don't like that professor or section, you should change to another professor's class of the same course. But yeah, when it comes to core classes, it's expected that your major classes are required, but sometimes you can find a better professor.
I didn't study, missed classes alot and got a 0.5 GPA! everyone told me I was the smartest guy in the college.. because I try to convince them 0.5 is better than 3.0-4.0 and the higher you are the harder you fall..
tell me about it, but you know, I realised that sometimes when we just focus so much in school, we start to perform a bit more poorly, so maybe go and have fun, you'll be happier, I bet we won't even remember our gpas when we get out mid-twenties 😂
so far i've never seen a beauty youtuber thats pretty, AND SMART AND MOTIVATIONAL. im in love with you already. thanks a lot for the tips, i agree so much about the bullet points notes & organizing the notes.
I like how you used the word "improve" because it means you went through a process into finding better ways to do things. Thanks for the informative video. My summer school starts on Monday.
I honestly felt really shitty and demotivated but watching this video with all the tips really helped me to feel less shittier and more motivated. My finals are coming and im so scared like i dont even know where to start. But im going to the store tomorrow and buy all the things to organize everything.Thank you for this :) lots of love xoxo
Excellent video. Thank you Anonymoushackzone com for Msc grades changes. I just got the transcript and it reflected, God bless you all for the connect and recommendation
I came here at the beginning of the semester, got motivated, and slacked off anyway. I was at a 3.0 two days ago, now I'm at a 3.2. If I get the grades I want and think I can get through finals, I will be at a 4.2. If I get that 4.2, it would be a miracle and I would be so happy I would probably cry. I'm really trying to do well on my finals which are on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday of this upcoming week. I hope I do well. I'll update on how I think I did on Wednesday. When my grades are updated in January, I will also update. Please wish me luck on my finals.
Social anxiety is a very real hurdle for both attending classes and getting the motivation to study. I am no stranger to it either. Thank you for sharing your struggle.
I love the tips! I'm in my 3rd semester of freshman year of college and organization has NEVER been one of my strengths. The binder and planner are a great idea. I might also suggest getting those binder seperaters, or whatever they're called, to seperate sections of loose leaf paper notes. I just thought of that lol. Thanks for the tips!!
this video inspires me to study and organize well :D i used to be so organized in high school.. not sure what happened in college. thanks for these great tips and re-inspriring me :)
Thank you! The first semester of my second year of university starts next week. I am going to apply these tips (and others) and do my best to get that GPA. Good luck to all of you!
Hi Sarah!! I'm new to your channel and I love this video! I just had one question. When you meet with your professors before an exam, what kind of questions do you ask them? I want to become friends with my professors, but I don't know what to ask or say to them
I agree with Nuong. Whatever concepts you don't understand, just ask your professor to explain them in brief. Also, make sure you complete your assignments on time. I have a great impression on my professors and they all respect me. The only problem is, I cannot meet their expectations since I always screw up in my exams :(
I like u...like your personality.. it's so positive and honest. while you're explaining you're also enjoying interacting to your audience.. really sweet!😘🐝
I'm taking a physics course right now from distance and I can tell you that the best things that are working for me are: 1. While you read, write the main idea of the paragraph in your own words. 2. If your career involves mathematics, practice a loooot. Watching classes on youtube works too. 3. Don't be afraid to ask. 4. Try to procrastinate the least. 5. The "pomodoro technique": study 25 min, then you have a break of 5 or 10 min (up to you), then study 25 min, break 5 min, study 25 min, break 5 min, study 25 min and then "lunch" for "15 or 20 min". The idea is not to sit there for an hour because you'll lose concentration. During the break times, don't think about what you're studying, distract yourself and then come back to your study session. You'll need discipline and you can repeat this pomodoro as many times as you'd like :D
Sarah please do more study related videos! You explained everything so well and straight to the point. I'd love to learn more about your study methods and how to stay motivated. Xoxo
I agree with everything you're saying. I have had a 4.0 GPA for a long time.The way I do things is; I study right after class for each course while the information is fresh in my head. I always take lesser classes normally so I can put in the quality of work required. During study sessions I read the text book then go over the key points of that chapter and practice explaining the concept aloud in a way that I can understand then talk with the professor and tell him what I understand about the concept to see if I am explaining it correctly. I usually look for great teachers who notify me what to expect on exams and papers. I have taken a full course load and have still maintained really high GPA. However, it's difficult and leads to inefficient study sessions because you have to find a way to focus on all of your classes. Some classes happen right after each other and the work load conflicts with each other. At my school I live on campus and I was told I had to be full time or I would lose my housing. Being full time caught up to me this semester. I took 5 classes. I received a 98, 96, 88, and an 85 in 4 of my 5 classes. in the 5th class I received a 79. I have one exam left.
Thank you for the tips! Very useful! It's time for me to actually start focusing more. Even tho i have relatively good grades i am not a straight A student. So, kids at school always hit me up with the classic "you're Asian, why don't you have straight A's?" (｡-_-｡) stereotypes.
You are so on point! I am glad that we study the same way. I also believe that mental illnesses, especially anxiety, is one of the things that will make it hard going through college. Its what I wanted to address with my counselor,except she didn't believe me.
Thank you so much for making this kind of video. It is really helpful because I'm procrastinating on many classes right now and I still wanna get grade A. After watching your video makes me realize that I have to go to the class regularly from now on.
I think you generation Z people are going to have to deal a lot with anxiety, specially if you are not very extroverted and social, since you are so exposed in the social media and constantly judged by how popular you are or how many friends you have, it's the society of the image instead of the soul. I had a little social anxiety myself, but it almost never gave me a problem, but I am sure that if I had been born in 2000 for instance, the pressure would have been completely unbearable
Hambeast Destroyer I'm so sorry to hear that! Your mental health is more important than anything else so definitely seek help if you need it. And whenever you're ready, try high school again! ♥️
Thanks so much for the help! It's great to see tips from someone with the same degree as me. I find studying philosophy (among similar subjects), where there's heavy emphasis on understanding the primary source through itself, is very different than studying textbooks or novels. Thanks again!
thankyou so much for the tips 😄 its motivating me for study hard in college next year. i hope you will give more study tips again. i adore you and i hope you get 4.0 again! lovelove 💞
Thank you, I finished my first year of college and it was terrible because of a host of things and this video is helping me get ready for next year! Thank you.
I like how you addressed mental health prior to going on with the tips! I completely agree that it's probably one of the most important things to tend to first! Wish I mentioned it in MY study tip video haha subbed!!
No it depends, there are people who are totally logical but stupid af in linguistics. I had a friend who got 10~40% for linguistic subjects and many different subjects other than his maths and science that he got 90~100%.
You are super cool and helpful. I LOVE all the tips and how you mentioned students need to take care of their health and mental health. That resonates with my social anxiety so much!!
This is so motivational!! It makes me strangely excited to get back to uni this week haha... I totally feel you with good quality pens, i love looking over at my cute notes and it makes me feel great about my work 😛
Yes the pen! But I hate G-2s lol! Pilot acroball every day! You're so wise. It took me a year of struggle to realize I need to take care of myself and my anxiety first... I wish I would have taken the year off instead of trying to handle a depression i didn't know I had and try to begin university. I've conquered it now and I'm a more confident, positive, productive, and balanced person, but it was difficult. It feels nice to know I'm not the only one. Yes go to class! Yes don't overload! Id say it's more important to select a professor that teaches in the way you learn. Do not be afraid to ask questions. Use every resource you have. always be early. read in the text and even take notes before lectures. make sure to to take time to study out and expose yourself to the material every day. Having a comfortable and cute study spot or desk is a necessity for me. And listening to instrumental piano or electro pop music while studying helps me so much . I use a binder for each class split in sections of notes, reference sheets, labs if applicable, homework, tests and exams, with the class schedule in the very front. For exam study I read through all my notes then go through practice questions then go through homework assignments and revise before turning them in. And I take my notes Cornell style with colored pens on grid paper.
Being friends with your professor really works. For my sociology class I got sick and wasn't able to turn it in at extacly midnight but since she liked me she understood and she accepted it! Ps I also find that using different color pens work a lot
Can you do a video on how to motivate yourself to study? or anything to do with college? I'm starting college this coming year. I need advice😭 this was a great video btw! loved it💕
omg sarah please do a video on tips for studying philosophy! im in my first week of uni, taking two majors, and one of them is history and philosophy of science. im basically enrolled in three philosophy classes this sem AND they're all level 2 (meant to be taken in year 2 but im taking them in year 1 as i have credit exemption and i can skip like 90% of first year subjects). have never studied philosophy before, its a completely new field for me. i find the content really interesting but what concerns me is all the terminology and the essay writing process. its bound to be very different from what ive done so far (which was a mix of business, marketing and education in the arts). maybe tips on that as well as advice on a new philosophy learner and just how to study the subject effectively and correctly? i think it'd be a great help to others in my situation as well (:
this is what beauty with brains means like
True. btw, hi co-EXO-L!

my social anxiety is getting in the way of my study. i cant help but feel anxious about making friends in class all the time..
I feel you
;(
k farah I have problems starting conversations with new people that's another reason why it's hard for me. I'm scared to go to college because of that and social anxiety):
Omg this is me right now. Like I only made one friend and I don't even sit beside her :/ but I'm struggling to try to talk to people around me.

I really should be studying for my midterm thats in two days and get a 4.0 but I am here watching your video of how to study
I write everything from school in one huge notebook and rewrite it on cute notebooks at home, it's actually fun

cute notebooks are expensive :(I don't even dare to write anything on it haha
This video gave me so much hope for the semester
Where is my Alevel squad?

Really great tips! My 'method' of maintaining my 4.0 is to work backwards.

I honestly felt really shitty and demotivated but watching this video with all the tips really helped me to feel less shittier and more motivated. My finals are coming and im so scared like i dont even know where to start. But im going to the store tomorrow and buy all the things to organize everything.Thank you for this :) lots of love xoxo
what college do you go to? :)
Katie Tracy you watch all the videos I watch cuz your always in the comment section 😂💖
you are a typical example of beauty with brains!!
Excellent video. Thank you Anonymoushackzone com for Msc grades changes.
I just got the transcript and it reflected, God bless you all for the connect and recommendation
I came here at the beginning of the semester, got motivated, and slacked off anyway. I was at a 3.0 two days ago, now I'm at a 3.2. If I get the grades I want and think I can get through finals, I will be at a 4.2. If I get that 4.2, it would be a miracle and I would be so happy I would probably cry. I'm really trying to do well on my finals which are on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday of this upcoming week. I hope I do well. I'll update on how I think I did on Wednesday. When my grades are updated in January, I will also update. Please wish me luck on my finals.
when you're watching this instead of studying 😂
Social anxiety is a very real hurdle for both attending classes and getting the motivation to study. I am no stranger to it either.
Thank you for sharing your struggle.
omg that pilot pen is my fav too ahhh !! :D
Have you anxiety disorder? Then that's why... you're just prone to doing whatever it takes to be perfect. The rest of us can't compete with that.
i think those tips are more like common senses....
Have you check other awesome and interesting apple apps for studying?
What about Flexcil?
ikr
Also it doesn't apply to all field.
Tobi Ologbenla yeah, I know people who don't do homework and skip class then wonder why they don't have straight A's
tbh this is the most accurate study tip ive watched so farr.. THANK YOU!
Really helpful video I love your organization. Thumbs up and a share
I love the tips! I'm in my 3rd semester of freshman year of college and organization has NEVER been one of my strengths. The binder and planner are a great idea. I might also suggest getting those binder seperaters, or whatever they're called, to seperate sections of loose leaf paper notes. I just thought of that lol. Thanks for the tips!!
all I need is just one tip to get 4.0 GPA: master English language. Too easy if I understand English in class.
Howard Tan I feel you bro
this video inspires me to study and organize well :D i used to be so organized in high school.. not sure what happened in college. thanks for these great tips and re-inspriring me :)
could you do a video on social anxiety? :)
Thank you! The first semester of my second year of university starts next week. I am going to apply these tips (and others) and do my best to get that GPA. Good luck to all of you!
Just don't study engineering or medicine.. 4.0 is guranteed
what about maths , and physics?
yes 😔
Will does anyone know what major she takes?
Same goes to law studies lol 😂🙌
Will AND law ! 😂
You're literally my fav TH-camr, so genuine and pure and soft ILYSM ;-;
Hi Sarah!! I'm new to your channel and I love this video! I just had one question. When you meet with your professors before an exam, what kind of questions do you ask them? I want to become friends with my professors, but I don't know what to ask or say to them
Hi Chelsea, I have sub your channel. I would really like to see you on your channel. Would you check mine?
Nuong Nguyen what well did you do on college?
I agree with Nuong. Whatever concepts you don't understand, just ask your professor to explain them in brief. Also, make sure you complete your assignments on time.
I have a great impression on my professors and they all respect me. The only problem is, I cannot meet their expectations since I always screw up in my exams :(
I like u...like your personality.. it's so positive and honest. while you're explaining you're also enjoying interacting to your audience.. really sweet!😘🐝
Love this! Any tips for studying at home?
I'm taking a physics course right now from distance and I can tell you that the best things that are working for me are:
1. While you read, write the main idea of the paragraph in your own words.
2. If your career involves mathematics, practice a loooot. Watching classes on youtube works too.
3. Don't be afraid to ask.
4. Try to procrastinate the least.
5. The "pomodoro technique": study 25 min, then you have a break of 5 or 10 min (up to you), then study 25 min, break 5 min, study 25 min, break 5 min, study 25 min and then "lunch" for "15 or 20 min". The idea is not to sit there for an hour because you'll lose concentration. During the break times, don't think about what you're studying, distract yourself and then come back to your study session. You'll need discipline and you can repeat this pomodoro as many times as you'd like :D
Sarah please do more study related videos! You explained everything so well and straight to the point. I'd love to learn more about your study methods and how to stay motivated. Xoxo
You're damn gorgeous.
this was useful for going back into the routine of school after 2 years not doing any studying 😃
I didn't do any homework or studying I just payed attention to the lesson in the class and I ended up with a 4.0 gpa ☺️😋
don't you get lost at all?
saya nop;)
your memory must serve you really well. without doing homeworks, i can't really remember things being taught
saya actually I'm used to this way since I was in elementary school
same here
I agree with everything you're saying. I have had a 4.0 GPA for a long time.The way I do things is; I study right after class for each course while the information is fresh in my head. I always take lesser classes normally so I can put in the quality of work required. During study sessions I read the text book then go over the key points of that chapter and practice explaining the concept aloud in a way that I can understand then talk with the professor and tell him what I understand about the concept to see if I am explaining it correctly. I usually look for great teachers who notify me what to expect on exams and papers. I have taken a full course load and have still maintained really high GPA. However, it's difficult and leads to inefficient study sessions because you have to find a way to focus on all of your classes. Some classes happen right after each other and the work load conflicts with each other. At my school I live on campus and I was told I had to be full time or I would lose my housing. Being full time caught up to me this semester. I took 5 classes. I received a 98, 96, 88, and an 85 in 4 of my 5 classes. in the 5th class I received a 79. I have one exam left.
Thank you for the tips! Very useful! It's time for me to actually start focusing more. Even tho i have relatively good grades i am not a straight A student. So, kids at school always hit me up with the classic "you're Asian, why don't you have straight A's?" (｡-_-｡) stereotypes.
You are so on point! I am glad that we study the same way. I also believe that mental illnesses, especially anxiety, is one of the things that will make it hard going through college. Its what I wanted to address with my counselor,except she didn't believe me.
What do you usually ask when you meet with professors?
Thank you so much for making this kind of video. It is really helpful because I'm procrastinating on many classes right now and I still wanna get grade A. After watching your video makes me realize that I have to go to the class regularly from now on.
is gpa really so important to our life?
In the grand scheme of things no. But to people with specific aspirations, yes.
It depends on what you wanna do in your life
why would schools use gpa system if it wasn't important in the first place
I think work experience & internships are more valuable.
i already graduated 4 years ago and im watching this. this is so good
I think you generation Z people are going to have to deal a lot with anxiety, specially if you are not very extroverted and social, since you are so exposed in the social media and constantly judged by how popular you are or how many friends you have, it's the society of the image instead of the soul. I had a little social anxiety myself, but it almost never gave me a problem, but I am sure that if I had been born in 2000 for instance, the pressure would have been completely unbearable
OMGG SAMEEE the certain type of pen affects my mood
social anxiety is why i had to drop out of high school :(
lmfao.
same
Hambeast Destroyer I'm so sorry to hear that! Your mental health is more important than anything else so definitely seek help if you need it. And whenever you're ready, try high school again! ♥️
With Nekopara as your profile pic, I totally can see that.
me :'( yeaaaah it sucks
Thanks so much for the help! It's great to see tips from someone with the same degree as me. I find studying philosophy (among similar subjects), where there's heavy emphasis on understanding the primary source through itself, is very different than studying textbooks or novels. Thanks again!
thankyou so much for the tips 😄 its motivating me for study hard in college next year. i hope you will give more study tips again. i adore you and i hope you get 4.0 again! lovelove 💞
Does she lives in the US before? Her english speaking is pretty good
i think she half white...
+sakura jade she is chinese hey
+Nicole she is from hong kong
Thank you, I finished my first year of college and it was terrible because of a host of things and this video is helping me get ready for next year! Thank you.
why am I watching this even though I am in middle school 😂😭
I loved that you spoke about working on mental health first----its so important. thank you
Where'd u get ur glassessss :)
Sarah great video!! You should definitely do a high school experience/advice video!
Need more motivational vids like this instead of all the...click my link...buy these products videos :)
I like how you addressed mental health prior to going on with the tips! I completely agree that it's probably one of the most important things to tend to first! Wish I mentioned it in MY study tip video haha
subbed!!
what's her major? no offense, but a 4 in engineering is WAY DIFFERENT from a 4 in women's studies
totally agree. But my friend really got 3,99 in mechanical engineering. I just cant believe it
No it depends, there are people who are totally logical but stupid af in linguistics. I had a friend who got 10~40% for linguistic subjects and many different subjects other than his maths and science that he got 90~100%.
You are gorgeous and intelligent! I hope you never lose motivation.
Step 1
Be asian

Step 1
Focus in class and learn proper self-control

You are super cool and helpful. I LOVE all the tips and how you mentioned students need to take care of their health and mental health. That resonates with my social anxiety so much!!
i love when you fix your glasses ...very cute
SHES PRETTY AND SMART WHAT THE HECK SHES JUST AMAZING
This is so motivational!! It makes me strangely excited to get back to uni this week haha... I totally feel you with good quality pens, i love looking over at my cute notes and it makes me feel great about my work 😛
I loveeeeeee the way you talk. so real and so intelligent!
you're so pretty!
Omg that is my favorite pen too!! I refuse to use any other pen because that one is literally the best
Yes the pen! But I hate G-2s lol! Pilot acroball every day!
You're so wise. It took me a year of struggle to realize I need to take care of myself and my anxiety first... I wish I would have taken the year off instead of trying to handle a depression i didn't know I had and try to begin university. I've conquered it now and I'm a more confident, positive, productive, and balanced person, but it was difficult. It feels nice to know I'm not the only one. Yes go to class! Yes don't overload! Id say it's more important to select a professor that teaches in the way you learn. Do not be afraid to ask questions. Use every resource you have. always be early. read in the text and even take notes before lectures. make sure to to take time to study out and expose yourself to the material every day. Having a comfortable and cute study spot or desk is a necessity for me. And listening to instrumental piano or electro pop music while studying helps me so much . I use a binder for each class split in sections of notes, reference sheets, labs if applicable, homework, tests and exams, with the class schedule in the very front. For exam study I read through all my notes then go through practice questions then go through homework assignments and revise before turning them in. And I take my notes Cornell style with colored pens on grid paper.
I have 5 assignments due today and here I am at 4 AM watching this
Being friends with your professor really works. For my sociology class I got sick and wasn't able to turn it in at extacly midnight but since she liked me she understood and she accepted it!
Ps I also find that using different color pens work a lot
you inspired me to get a fancy pen for myself from swarovsk, i even mentioned it in my medical study vlog!
so prettyyyy
omg thank God youre back
these tips are all so helpful but the way you styled your hair is so simple but flawless. video please ?
Thank you for your tips!! Listening to you talk about what works for you is motivating for myself to find what works for me!
hello! I am starting semester 2 in a week time and i just wanna let you know that your advice came in in time and i feel more motivated for school x
Can you do a video on how to motivate yourself to study? or anything to do with college? I'm starting college this coming year. I need advice😭 this was a great video btw! loved it💕
Thank you so much Sarah, tomorrow is my first Midterm exam and I needed a motivation thanks
omg sarah please do a video on tips for studying philosophy! im in my first week of uni, taking two majors, and one of them is history and philosophy of science. im basically enrolled in three philosophy classes this sem AND they're all level 2 (meant to be taken in year 2 but im taking them in year 1 as i have credit exemption and i can skip like 90% of first year subjects). have never studied philosophy before, its a completely new field for me. i find the content really interesting but what concerns me is all the terminology and the essay writing process. its bound to be very different from what ive done so far (which was a mix of business, marketing and education in the arts). maybe tips on that as well as advice on a new philosophy learner and just how to study the subject effectively and correctly? i think it'd be a great help to others in my situation as well (:
