Thing is the, "write it in different colours" thing was something I was once taught was a good method of encouraging information retention. You're tricking your brain into associating the info in different fashions such as through colour or through body motions. Also, the whole, "Review everything and then blurt it" tactic was legit how I crammed for my technical school tests. I generally graded highly.
I used this trick with Math too. Im awful at remember anything with numbers and long division and remembering how it works always confused me. I found a website that helps with math and they color coded every step. It helped a ton!
@@thehorde4868 Bit of both really since the point is to help with retention of info. The way it was explained it's more or less tricking the brain to associate something distinct from everything else where you might otherwise blur on things. So do this for revision and for learning something new. The reason I originally learned it was for helping with a language credit in college prior to going to technical school, and it helped for that too.
Blurting is useful if you use korean language especially teacher cannot understand that also use blurting technique with different languages when the teachers found out they can understand what that means
Someone spent most of the exam thinking of the questions asked and analyzing them (without understanding them despite this), falling asleep and doodling before actually starting the exam 5 minutes before that period ends. That one student was ME during math
I've watched many vlog but yout vlogs are the best on RU-vid right now, really loved them!!🤌🏻 I found the motivation to study by watching your videos, thank you so much! So glad I found your channel :)
This trick works more for high school than college because the test are more focused on what you remembered compare to your critical and abstract thinking.
Depends on what you're studying and the teacher! I'm a STEM major, so lots of science courses, and most of them are "remember the thing" types of tests. If you go into the humanities, it's much more likely you wont be tested at all and will be writing giant papers and making presentations instead. I love my field, but I'm genuinely so jealous of all the people that get to write papers as their final, I love writing papers and really miss doing it.
Uhhh mom? Yes sweetheart? I got 5 marks on my test. YOU WHAT NOW? I got 5 marks on my test. how many questions sweetie??? 100. 100 BOY YOU ARE GROUNDED FOR LIFE
I've heard about it many times, I'll definitely try it out for the next exam. Watching a study with me video also helps me. Then I always divide my work properly, take enough breaks and have enough motivation. I wish y'all good luck in the next exam ☺️🤗
Pretty simple as the best way of remembering something is by trying to remember it, it sticks it in your head more than just reading it over and over again, which I'm pretty prone to doing lol.
@@vinson3725 I'm sorry if i offeneded you in any way, it's just that i was explaining the reason as to why this technique works. Then again, the technique still works even with adhd, just that it would be really difficult to start and continue using.
I literally just had this few weeks ago,i studied my whole ass reviewer and didn't know that the teacher sent us a different reviewer that is different from what we learned so far
Here’s what I did: study 50 pages of notes for 1 hour the day before then sleep for 3 hours after procrastinating studying the whole time and still somehow get first.
@@AhyamiYoitomodachi Yes 🙌, I am not Muslim, but I don’t discriminate any religions really. And I believe that God/Allah (a higher power) has blessed me to not fail my exams. 🫶🥲
Its true flash cards are literally the way for everything cuz after you say what you remember you go and study what you forgot and restudy what you already remember easy but im lazy now i need to prioritize work over weed :/
And I do the exact opposite of it. Even though I noted all the important things, I would still try to add some more points to make it bigger(I even sometimes write the same points over and over again but with different wordings in the sentence)lol
you’d have to make a lot more changes to your life, including being good at taking notes to have this even starting to move in the right direction lmao.
Note taking isn't rocket science. Its really not that hard. If you're bad at taking notes in the first place, you probably never pay attention in class.
@@freshlymemed5680 I have adhd and I still pay attention in class, I generally retain most of the knowledge but I can’t study because I can’t write and listen at the same time so I don’t usually have notes. It’s not all about paying attention in class
@@32soup36 Actually you can !it may be a little difficult 2 do that but try to concentrate and listen carefully and make a point on things you have to remember then write it later briefly😊
Tell yourself daily my memory is very Sharp I can remember anything ,I understand anything after some days you can look yourself what tremendous change has come
For those who didn't understand properly : He's telling you to make short notes by your own , which you can understand easily . And later on take test and repeat
Surprisingly ever since I started school that was how my mom prepared me for exams and ever since then I still do it... I didn't know it was called blurting..
@@Rickygrines Well if you really want to focus of course it'll work.. Well it depends on the person tbh, not every technique fits everyone so yeah.. But give it a try, after reviewing in the evening, do it again in the morning just incase.. Yeah!
I used to live by “if I wrote it, I know it”. It’s how I never study for a test bc I know I wrote it down, I just have to remember the muscle memory and notes.
Oh, so that’s how it works for those who barely study. But does it require a good confidence level to know the stuff you wrote isn‘t wrong in your head?
Confidence is key when jt comes to test, if you're not even a confident at all then studying is a must. If you're cocky and confident, you don't need much of studying. I'm pretty confident and always get better than 80%
That would make it less based on intelligence and understanding and more based on how well you can learn things inside out and forget them in a few weeks
If only I has your memory it's tuff here man teachers with their goofy AF grammar in PDF's and transcript makes it so fooking hard to understand the topics
I once did that exact tecnique but it felt incomplete. Now I understand that instead of rewriting everything I knew and then just check if I wrote everything, I could simply do this and spare so much time. Thank you!
I did something similar for a biology exam. I study for an hour through my 100 pages of notes and tried to remember the most important parts that morning. When I got to the exam, they gave us scratch paper and I spent the first 30 minutes writing down everything I remembered and covered the page front to back. I didn’t even need 75% of the stuff I wrote down but I felt really good about doing it anyway 😭
