    As someone who's been going thru the last board exams of her life and officially done with school life,the best advices i could give the juniors are that please please please do study regularly. Especially the things you've learnt in class or lectures,you should recap them that day when you're home. Summarize the whole topic and write them down on your own way. You'll definitely see the results. I wish i realised this earlier now it's too late

    1. Read the theory, underline words or lines that define the whole paragraph
    2. Solve the previous year questions topic wise and mark the the tricky or time taking ones (also see how a teacher solves those questions)
    3. Cut out distractions if possible or like he said, delay them
    4. Don't make time tables(not very effective), set goals for each week and divide it as each day's task. Keep 1 or 2 days for revision( quickly go through those underlined words and topics in your textbook and solve the marked questions )
    5. Set feasible goals
    6. At the end of the month take a collective assessment

    @mehakverma7043 Před 8 měsíci +2430

    I find that this works more for STEM students, like doing questions and stuff, but for humanities students, you have to spend lots of time reading and applying what you read through writing and assignments. It's unavoidable. I have never stayed up all night studying for a chemistry test, because I can just solve the practice questions and tests over and over again. And once you can solve the most difficult questions in the textbook, you are ready for the test. But the only all-nighters I've ever pulled were for English class. Writing an essay takes time, even if you do not notice the time. First you have to understand the subject. Then you have to formulate new and profound thoughts on that learned info. Then you have to articulate it in writing in order to apply your thoughts well so that the teacher can judge your knowledge. That's a solid B. But a solid A...well that's hard. You have to go above and beyond and really connect the readings to your own thoughts, and maybe even the world. And you have to do it well and convincingly and ope- it's 6am and you studied for 12 hours straight by accident.

      that was such a good summation but, tbh, not relatable. im planning to take humanities with so much pressure to take science and i think as my country has english as a second language, the standards over that subjects are much lower. in rural areas, just being able to say "i am a boy" in english is a subject of awe. maybe thats why getting almost 100% in english is easier for fluent/semi-fluent students. but reading your comment makes me much more apprehensive about my command over english...if i were to move abroad in the future, (which i most probably will), then would that be a herculean task? would english, my best subject, potentially become my worst due to higher standards in english-speaking countries...?

      @@side5029 I'm from Canada, and English is not easy here, its all about organizing your words in a way that conveys what you know and convinces the reader your point. Writing is meant to be beautiful. Honestly I did take my fair share of STEM classes in grade 11 (chem, physics, functions, programming). And the science and math classes were indeed very difficult, even more difficult than the humanities. I was doing awful in them, but my problem back then was that I kept making notes (which is useless). But when I got a tutor my grades turned out fine and the courses were a lot easier, because it's just your ability to understand complex theories and functions of science and math. But I never needed to spend more than 3 hours per day on my STEM subjects. Because once you understood the unit and how to solve the difficult questions, you're set for the tests and exams.
      Humanities requires you to think critically and beyond the scope of what you are given. I'm going into law so in grade 12 I dropped all my STEM classes and took philosophy, social studies, history, law, etc. Reading is very time consuming but it must be done. Planning your essay, writing your answer, thinking, these things are more time consuming than they sound. So while the "minimal time deep thinking" technique shown in the video may work for STEM classes, they do not work for humanities. I remember doing a philosophy assignment on the matrix and it took me a whole 2 days to answer 9 questions about the movie. (A bunch of kids got in trouble with that assignment because they used ChatGPT to answer them, which is why you should always keep your written outline and thinking before you type it up).
      To answer your question about studying abroad, I'm also going abroad for Law School in Scotland and I'm kind of scared because they take the arts and humanities a lot more seriously. Honestly, your essay writing MUST be excellent if you want to study humanities in an English speaking country. Read as many of the classics as you can, it'll save you a lot of trouble.

      Something that help me past with an A for my humanities classes is to
      1:Don't try to edit and create at the same time, when trying to be a perfectionist, it's really difficult to generate ideas. Instead just try to get the word count down and then revise. However, this skill will take some time to build up.
      2:Try to write when you have the most energy and have clear goals.
      3:Imo, reading the texts are inevitable, but you can maximize your 1st reading sessions. I like to generate essay prompt questions for the readings and then answer them in 2-3 paragraphs, this is simply my ideas rather than trying sound professional. It'll help you prepare for exam prompts your professor may give to you.

    The very first thing I’m doing before studying or revising anything is to write down all the topics and then get 3 colours and mark the topics I already am familiar with, the ones I don’t fully understand and the ones I don’t understand at all. That takes only a few minutes and is so practical for having a good overview of everything and later for efficiently using your precious study time. Now when I start studying I first study the topics I don’t understand at all. My red flag is that I just love having a summary of all topics on one page. That’s why I always write my summary around a week before the test/exam, BUT it is so important to really just write a SUMMARY and not all the little details. I always do that on my computer because 1. I have more space on one page and 2. It’s just so much faster and easier. I love having my own summary for revising everything in a quick way (for example before sleeping or right before the test/exam). When I have prioritised my topics and wrote my summary (this takes me around 30-45 minutes) I’m gonna study all topics by using different study techniques that work best for me (I think it’s really personal which study techniques are working for you).
    I really liked this video and just wanted to share my study habits! Please always remember to put your mental health first and don’t feel pressured to be this perfect student, because literally nobody is perfect! 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼

    Really some good advice. I never struggled as much with working efficiently since I found ways I can study in less time pretty early on and I also set precise goals for myself. My problems are that I get distracted easily, am unmotivated and can't discipline myself to actually stay focused for longer periods of time. So although I am very productive when I work, I procrastinate way too much, which leads to having less time left, which stresses me out and makes me even less willing go go study. It's also nice to hear someone acknowledge that leaving all distractions behind isn't something you can just do and it takes time to get used to and pull through. Thanks a lot :)

      It’s always important to believe yourself innovate and see your results, and for that you have to say yes yes but I won’t be treating it like a bible to what others tell you. But still idk studying seems like something that it should progress in much faster than that imo 😂
      I guess others want you to reach your potential? But.. what abojt the potential of living a happy life? Is that not important? Is it bc we’re too happy and excited about the new world we’re living in? And we think being a student is the time to build your foundation forever? Hmm I see I see… you do gotta remember that students will have more motivation and power to build a good foundation for their future if they are happy and living well rather than completely sacrificing their years like a slave for it.. but I guess that’s a concept people have to explore a bit in order to realize. I guess it’s everyone’s personal choice and I’d like to see everyone’s new innovations.. rather than I’d like to criticize those who seem reckless based on my own clueless ideas 😂

    Everything you said is true. I'm a med student and I started off solely making pretty notes on my ipad, and I look back on them now and i don't remember jack shit. As soon as I gained access to question banks, ditched the need to have perfect notes, I started seeing the results. I use note taking for more consolidation; to compare similar and different things (because that's what's tested). I am still trying to overcome that more hours=more knowledge and it is a somewhat hard pill to swallow. What I've learnt that how many hours of deep work that allows you to grasp content is worth way more than idly sitting at a desk and only ever taking a breath when having to eat/shower. I feel like that not putting much pressure on yourself opens up the gates of your mind more lol. Wonderful tips and i love the concept of deep work. i am on a journey to fully maximizing on that concept, because it really is the key.

    My advice is that if u take notes for the sake of taking notes, don’t do it because it’s a waste of time. Just read the textbooks and try to understand it instead of memorizing. 80% of the stuff taught can be remembered by just understanding it (not the case for labeling stuff though)

    I've already graduated and am moving into a MBA program, but I highly recommend delaying your distractions, as this is a key point to how to become successful in your studies. Both my parents (Singapore and Chinese) always used this method of forcing me to study 1-2 hours, then allow me to spend my time freely until later at night when we do a quick review. This is very efficient and for parents, this is a great way of parenting that will help more to guiding your kid while they will eventually learn to appreciate the effort you have put in.

    The type of students he described (makes notes and thinks they're studying tons, flips through textbooks and not really study the main topics) is totally me. I always procrastinate and even tho I take more time to study than anyone I've known, I end up studying faster than anyone right the last minute. That's just how I survive even tho it gets me burned out everytime. So, this video was like a fate to me lol. I really needed to hear that. THANK YOU ♡

      Imo it's neither ADHD nor inability to stay focused that is keeping you from focusing but (if i am guessing it right)
      you are not even interested in the study material.But that's not your fault , textbooks ARE boring😢 BUT you can do something about it,like learning the how and why of things , applications of formulas ,imagining scenarios and creating stories instead of cramming...as long as you develop that close relation with your subjects, will you start to enjoy and excel at studies...Stay motivated❤❤ and remember ,nothing is wrong with you but the way you are DOING stuff can be ineffective

    @saltyspudhead Před 6 měsíci +4

    I’ve recently become a college student flattened by the exams because the concepts are so different and difficult. What I learned is very similar to this video but I’d recommend having those notes in addition to doing topic and exam qs because it gives you the why and the background knowledge necessary. Plus when I take my notes now I focus on writing down the learning targets and specific qs before I read and transfer the information to my notebook. That made note taking efficient and made practice exams easier and gave me a deeper understanding. Even then I find myself making a small cheat sheet of the basic information and reviewing that to help me remember.
    Just my two cents. Awesome video :) and this totally changed the way I do work for the better.

    As someone who struggled as hell with organisation, procrastination and all messed up things a good student should avoid, I'd been obsessed watching all this study techniques on CZcams and Internet.
    I got super overwhelmed, none of these worked for me and my anxiety started crawling to my head. "I need to find the perfect method and schedule" I used to say-...
    And sometimes the best studying method is so simple as paying attention in class and asking questions. Understanding what ur being teached is the key. Furthermore, having a keen interest on the topic and searching doubts on CZcams or internet overall, has helped me alot.
    I like taking effective notes, like writing the date and topic, also doing like a little scheme with brief explanation of what we are talking, while writing at a side vocabulary that idk. With a basic scheme, at home, I can highlight those things that I kinda struggle and search up the info that I don't understand. After that it's just about accumulating notes till you have a nice lil book to study and revise for the exams.
    I advice revising everyday what u had done yest. 5 mins or so, using the question method in ur head. So when the exam it's close, you already know pretty much everything and you only need to revise a little bit.😊
    In subjects that revolves around problem solving it doesn't work ofc, those I highly recommend practicing everyday with exams that other students may have posted on the internet or problems that might equal to the level of the exam's.
    Even tho, I really suggest finding ur self-made methods that adjusts to ur conditions and necessities.🙃

      I relate a lot to what you wrote. I never really struggled with working efficiently but starting to work at all. I also take a lot of notes in classes etc. and know how I need to study but I really struggle with maths even though I know I need to solve a lot of problems since learning the theory doesn't help. But I really hate it and never do.
      All those study videos are promoting just doing better and getting over it, but it's really not that easy to discipline yourself like that.
      And in the end, you're right, you need to find what works for you and sadly others can suggest options but you somehow have to figure it out on your own.
      I hope everyone figures it out (sooner rather than later, including me)

    I am someone who can only study if i make those aesthetic pinterest notes. My adhd makes my mind wander and procrastinate too much and those notes have been the most effective way for me to focus. Yeah a lot of people here seem to think it is useless but the only way i can get myself to sit down and study is if i make notes like that. I try to understand each and everything i put down in the notes while writing them, make sure to highlight important points and then also write down questions i have or further research i need to do on the topic. Thats my method and it's something that works for me. I'm now in grad school doing my masters in physics and it has taken me a long time to perfect this method for myself. So the only thing I want to point out from this video is that while these are very useful tips, if you have a method that works for you and goes against what's said here its still okay.

Of course I've heard quite similar things over a hundred times in the past 3-4 years but now that I'm in uni (it's a bachelors in technology, basically all science(& maths) except biology) i somehow decided it was time to get 'serious' about life, though probably because i can't just skim through it like I've been doing in school. That sounds kinda weird even to me because highschool is also supposed to be taken seriously, but whatever. And yes, past year questions is quite literally your goal in front of you, i think all over the world just covering them up, i mean not learning but having genuine knowledge would help like 70-80% with your results. So I probably just needed something to kickstart myself, I'll follow these advices. Thanks!

After starting the 9th grade I started having difficulties with maths where I used to win math olympiads and was the best math student in our class. I thought this was due to not practicing enough during the covid time, everything was falling apart. I only focused on learning the concept fully even the nihht before the exam because I felt like that would help me score good. But after getting the question paper I realized I knew all the equations, formulas, tricks and everything but I failed to imply them.

    80/20 is amazing principle, it applies literally every area of life. Just pick the fundamentals/most important tasks that move you towards desired goal/outcome and max them out...
    If you can, Monk Mode/Dopamine Detox while preparing for exam is probably best choice to make... cut out all the distractions, and only do productive stuff (when you get tired, instead of scrolling or playing vidya, read some book, or watch high value podcast about specific topic you'll be able to implement info in)
    Great vid.
