Honestly don’t even worry about this. I’ve been reading on my own for a while now, and I’ve noticed that my scores on English assignments, tests, and exams as well as the ACT have been fairly high, with a lot less studying than for other sections.

I've read sapiens and I must say, it is one of the best books I have ever read. It explains concepts we humans were afraid to consider before, and it explains it in the most efficient and simple way possible. Definitely recommend it 10/10🎉
Another book I would suggest reading is The Art of War by Sun Tzu. It’s an amazing book Focusing on military strategy, psychology and tactics. Each section concentrates on a different facet of warfare and draws out important themes such as communication, strength and positioning. It is quite hard to read for a beginner or a non-native English speaker but it’s a timeless classic of East Asian culture and history and is still taught in some colleges today.
@@Davis... It's from book Atomic habits. To build new habits it's good to do things only for two minutes at first and progress. My explanation is kind of poor so for clarification search it up
Two STEM books and some test prep? How about Toni Morrison, Chinua Achebe, Ralph Ellison, Issac Asimov, Octavia Butler, Amy Tan, Dostoyevsky? Where is the culture? Where is the passion? When do we learn to think and to love?
What's your routine for getting the motivation to get there? Please help a fellow student here..life is hard gravitating through friends, relationships, family. It just feels like I lost my reader self in midst of it all.
Sapiens is an AMAZING book, but it’s a little hard to digest. If you aren’t an avid or advanced reader, I would recommend Sapiens: a graphic history. They put all the ideas of that book into a graphic novel format and not only is it really fun, but mind opening too!
it is an AMAZING book, but same, I found some parts a little hard to understand because some of the things they discuss are complex so I had to read some things a few times to really understand but still really good book

You’ll want to pair it with some caramelized onions to give it some contrast and voila your book is ready.
a brief history of nearly everything is one of my favorite books, it was laid out super well and got me really into physics. Edit: I just finished reading Sapiens, very good
Step 1) walk out of the bookstore and into the library It’s literally free and tbh they’re more likely to have all the books you’re looking for or a way to get them.
discipline is the key. Try to build discipline, you compromise with yourself will drive you forward. compromise with yourself is always motivation enough. if you simply do it, at least start, you will see the difference. you have to do things even when you don't want to, and that builds character
Read 2 3 pages daily, it would help and then you may want to read more... or less. If less, well at least you read that day. Have some of your favorite healthy snacks with you and water
i absolutely love bill bryson’s writing. he manages to make everything so interesting, and by the end you don’t even realize that you just read a massive nonfiction book.
I highly suggest reading Percy Jackson, even though it's not fully nonfiction, it helps. Trust me - it tested my knowledge of the Greek gods and goddesses
I started reading a short history of nearly everything and I’m loving it so far! As a person who has been scared of space and how life works for all of my life, my dad told me it would help with my fear :)

Back in year five, I remember my teacher always on about how reading ANY book can make you smarter. I can also literally confirm this is true because from year four to year six, I had a friend called Maddie who would ALWAYS read fiction novels and she was the smartest girl in my year group. When you were born dosent matter either, she was the youngest in the yg
@@sunookissWell, “Sapiens” refers to “Homosapiens”, which is the kind of monkey that many people believe humans came from. If you are a Christian, chances are you probably believe in the whole story of The Garden of Eden with Adam and Eve. That’s what I meant, but sorry if it wasn’t clear enough 😅
The diverse selection you've recommended is fantastic, covering a range of topics and genres. I appreciate the emphasis on books that not only inform but also stimulate critical thinking and creativity. Your insights into each book give a great preview of what to expect, making it easier to choose based on personal interests. It's inspiring to see how literature has the power to elevate our intelligence and broaden our perspectives.
This is why we are all miserable… still living in a high school mindset competing with others to see who’s smarter or who can retain more unnecessary knowledge

I’ve actually read both and I think Sapiens is very interesting. I’d recommend “The psychology of stupidity explained by some of the world’s smartest people.”
If someone says they’re smarter then don’t believe them intelligence isn’t up to IQ it’s determined ability to learn. Intelligence is incredibly broad in scope. Intelligence as it’s measured today is left up to tons of factors like general mood, environment, experiences and social interactions. Just focus on improving yourself not everything is so predetermined
I'm not from America and these are the subject I am studying 1:business studies(management and Financial management) 2:Economics 3.Accountancy Any tips ?
For anyone studing history, I'd 100% recommend "A Little History of the World", by EH Gombrich, it's a short, delightful book, whenever we start a new chapter in History, I'l always read the corresponding chapter in the book.
Books give information, can increase vocabulary, and is great for one's imagination! But always remember: -experience is a good teacher -not all books give the same information of a subject -don't just read fact-based books, read story books -write: what you know, what you learned, what you wish to learn -if you don't know something, ask This is advice from a high school student, so maybe I'm not worth listening to, but I hope I can help. Have fun and be productive!
You can be dumb and have a higher potential to be smarter than a guy who’s studied all his life. You can also be super smart and a guy who’s dumb can surpass you just because he had more consistency and grit. The only thing that matters is grit to do it consistently
So, people confuse knowledge with intelligence quozient, the IQ is not calculated by how much you know, but by how much you manage to work around certain situations and recognize patterns, which is how QI tests are developed
It would be amazing if you did this but with fictional books that are educational and entertaining. Eg. Percy Jackson-Teaches you about Greek mythology in a entertaining story
Remember be careful with electric items as they could hurt you and or someone else and or start a fire also be careful of anything that produces heat or a flame. Also eat red meat and processed meat in moderation and attempt to avoid eating burnt or roasted food as all are known to increase your risk of cancer. Also there's a tick that can make you dangerously allergic to mammal meat and other mammal products (at least so I've heard I believe it's called the lone star tick)
booksmarts is not the same as having a high IQ! apologies that the hook is a bit misleading (was just trying to make it entertaining)

I like the idea of writing down book quotes that I love. I take pics of sections in pages that I highlight and never look at it again 🤦🏽♀️
It would be amazing if you did this but with fictional books that are educational and entertaining.
Eg. Percy Jackson-Teaches you about Greek mythology in a entertaining story
I LOVE "A Short History of Nearly Everything" It's a must read. Makes me want to read it again after so many years!
I had to read a short history of nearly everything for my college composition class, I’m surprised to see it get brought up lol
dawg i swear every time i try to read any of them i feel sleepy😭
“Penthouse” will make you smarter. I learned that from a friend.
Remember be careful with electric items as they could hurt you and or someone else and or start a fire also be careful of anything that produces heat or a flame. Also eat red meat and processed meat in moderation and attempt to avoid eating burnt or roasted food as all are known to increase your risk of cancer. Also there's a tick that can make you dangerously allergic to mammal meat and other mammal products (at least so I've heard I believe it's called the lone star tick)
