Thanks, all of you! I actually have an online test 2 weeks later, so this video put hope in me and I’ve already tried this technique. It works like a charm! Plus, thank you all in the comments section! 😁
Barca Koseoglu I’m in eighth grade and this really helps me as well I get a lot of homework and some of his videos have made me start enjoying homework keep watching his videos there really helpful to study better
I want to say thank you for all the info you provide! I wanted to change my study habits which have been atrocious since MS and HS. I started watching your videos and implementing your strategies. Got a 99% on my last A&P exam and a 90% on my last microbiology exam thanks to the changes.
This is great! It’s really not addressed much in school. We are forced to learn a lot of un-useful information when the true value would be in teaching us HOW to actually learn it- teaching someone how to learn is more valuable than WHAT they learn often times.
As I'm a non-traditional hopeful studying for the MCAT, I find the Feynman Technique hardest. The other techniques (especially active recall/spaced repetition) are absolutely beautiful! Thanks for all you and you're team are doing. #neuroplasticity #potentiation
You should go over the med school application more. I know you have done that already, but you should go more in-depth. Like how do I log my personal experiences such as shadowing, volunteer and service activities, leadership and community involvement, Research, and clinical exposure? I know it's all important. But how do you log it? How will the admissions teams actually know that you have done these things?
I’m in eighth grade and this really helps me as well I get a lot of homework and some of his videos have made me start enjoying homework keep watching his videos there really helpful to study better also they have helped me learn how to manage my time and I’m getting better grades so thank you keep up the good work
I’m the worst test taker, i get super anxious, i doubt all my answers and even question my knowledge right as I have the test infront of me😞 Can you make a video on test taking PLEASE?
Carol Chimirri i haven’t done research on this since I’ve only heard of it from a professor you should look into ways helping test anxiety because it’s a real thing that you can overcome and eventually be confident and okay with test taking
How do we get into med schools in usa and uk from countries like India and other countries. As it is very expensive for people in india to go into US for med school.
Why didn't you mention mind mapping and summary sheets? Otherwise one of the best you did. I'm a Paed and the info is too much to convert into Anki. I use summary sheets/mind maps and own questions, but attaching to my main textbook (Nelson) which I have divided into systems.
I just wanted to say that while I'm extremely cheap, I'd buy any sort of software you put out. If for example you had a note taking software that included these techniques (so that maybe after a certain about of time you had to go back to a certain topic or it had ways to put in flashcards & practical problems & cases /examples), I'd buy it. Depending on the functions, I'd say I would pay up to €30-€40 for it (and I'm as cheap as they come). Just an idea!
I have a question. Is it weird that I don't find studying from flash cards aren't for me? Also I was interested in the idea of the forgetting curve. I watch some videos about it and thought about this over, and I attempt using a template that uses the forgetting curve. It's not for me I prefer understanding the information for long term memory, and for processing information I prefer writing down questions to quiz myself if I take notes or when I do a reading.
Hey Med School Insiders, could you do an episode on morning vs night showers, and settle the debate once and for all? Would love to hear the science behind why one or the other is better (or maybe both?)
Hey Dr. Jubbal, I’m wondering what modifications did you make with your Anki schedule? I have been using it but my cards age so fast and then the next time I will see the card is like 3 weeks away when i have the midterm in 4 days....
if you haven't made a video about it yet, could you make a video on minors as a pre-med student? do you recommend it? is it better if the minor was a scientific subject, or could it be something different like economics? i'm a junior in HS so i want to know what my options are!
Based on the book Make it Stick, I believe the essential idea is to mix it up rather than repeating the same concept or technique. For example, suppose you are learning boxing. You may keep doing the jab for hours if you believe concentrated practice will improve your technique. Interleaving suggests that repeating the same technique is pointless. So, instead of just doing the jab for hours, it’s more effective to practice the jab, cross, hook and uppercut all together at the same time. In an academic context, instead of repeatedly doing question of permutation, it’s better to mix it up and do 1 question of permutation followed by another question of combination and so forth. In this video, he is suggesting that you complete one section of an entire subject before moving on to another. So, study maths for 25min, take a break for 5 minutes and then study maths again for 25 minutes, but, after this session, move to a different subject. Once you are done with an entire session of that subject, come back to maths and repeat.
Tq bro short and cute it was like a spaced reputation!. For people who usually Donot acquire knowledge by books, the other modes auditory will this help bro recording hearing again is not useful (help) pls🌝
It means that you switch to other topics instead of studying one topic exclusively. For example, you can study each topic 20 to 30 minutes then take a 5 minute (or a few more minutes if needed) break then move to another topic and repeat. That keeps you focused and helps you to associate information in topics to each other.
Hello, I was wondering about the re-applicant status. I think it is not explained very well. Is it only to those schools that you have applied the first year, or all schools in general, even if you are applying to them for the first time?? Thank you for your videos, they are a great inspiration!
So listening to music while studying isn't bad right?? Cause I have had people tell me, " How do you study with the music ??" So I thought I was the only one , but I tend to get drowsy but music keeps me awake and I tend to actually concentrate , I have also seen videos saying that it isn't very effective either but it seems to work for me .. So should I do something abt it or be unique abt it ? 🤷

ehhhh ... your gym "analogy" could use some work. first and foremost, it only really applies to guys ... if then because you're much more prone to injury as well. that's not kewl. secondly, you can very well lift 10 lb dumbbells and just max out on reps; in general, this is what gives one a slender but very toned appearance vs the hulk like steroids-y (not the kind about which i usually talk) appearance. also, i really suggest that everyone compares and contrasts "material" or even sources no matter what they are referencing. if we had more people do this in the recent election, things would not be so close, i'm quite sure. we need to make and keep facts, well, facts! finally a point about which i agree! iq and standardized tests HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH ONE ANOTHER. i have mentioned throughout facebook that i know many people i went to grade school with who were barely able to get into the gifted program (iq about 120) who, comparatively speaking, are much LESS intelligent than i am, but they are now doctors. on the other hand, although i got nearly a perfect score on the ACT and the writing SAT (those were once separate ... but for those of you who were not born when i took these tests, i got 1 wrong from my writing SAT) ... but i didn't really do very well on the regular SAT AT ALL. well enough to get into great schools, esp. w/ the writing SAT and ACT as well as the fact that I was going to be the valedictorian and held the highest class rank until I decided to drop it altogether to skip a grade to get away from my "bullies" so i had to work HARD, fitting into one school year (during which i was sick for about 4 months) two full academic school years. i did it though. on the other hand, i dated a guy who got a nearly perfect SAT and he didn't do so well on his ACT but he was incredibly smart and got into a CA-based school to deal with ... a very difficult branch of physics. but he gave it all up to be near his home ... and the story gets sadder from there. so in short, a couple of "anecdotes" that prove that IQ and "standardized testing" are not one and the same. oh, just by the by, the second example of the physicist-to-be? he went to a crap school, got crap grades, and had to stay an extra year to rectify that. i went to a top research school (in the world) and i think my gpa is like ... 3.96 as of now ... and i am chasing my dreams while he seems to have forgotten about his. so ... it also depends what you want out of life in a lot of ways.
It's better to use apps such as anki for spaced repetition because they are made to organize the time between each repetition based on the difficulty to recall them.
