“When is your exam coming? Is it 2 weeks, 2 month?” Me: 2 days :,)

0:57 - *Advanced information processing* After reading the topic/chapter(ask questions) 1) How would I use this 2) When would I use this 3) Why would I use this 3:45- *Space repetition* Keep revising the topic in regular interval of time, for example if you studied a topic today revise it in 5 or 8 hours or maybe the very next day than revise it again after 3 days and keep repeating this cycle . 5:38- *Pareto principle* 80% of outcome(grades) comes from 20% efforts This 20% of efforts include 1) past paper analysis 2) summarizing lecture notes 6:49- *Feynman technique* 1)Rewrite the entire information you are reading in your own words 2) teach what you learned (teach like you teaching something to a person who has no knowledge of the topic).Try to simply the concepts to the greatest extent. 3) Observe the concept which you were able to explain well and the concept which you were not able to explain now go back to the book and try to understand the concepts again which you couldn't explain well 4) Repeat the above steps until you are able to explain it without opening the book Edit:- Thank you for amazing comment down here *It ain't much but it's honest work*

Currently studying and this video =motivation break

Do you ever watch these study tip videos, create a mental routine, plan it so well and start daydreaming yourself studying but never actually study, to the point you get exhausted from all that planning and daydreaming and then just say, "I'm too tired to study today, I'll start tomorrow", and the tomorrow never comes?? Because that is me. If there ever was a procrastination God, that would undoubtedly be me.

"By learning you will teach, by teaching you will learn." - Latin Proverb

I had to make you uncomfortable otherwise you would have never moved. -*universe*

I've taught so many things to my mom that i think she can pass the exam for me .

I wish everyone nothing but the best on their academic journey you got this!💯

*The most improtant two days of your life is first when you were born and second when you find out why.* Have an amazing day ladies and gentlemen.

Don't mind me, just taking notes. - Active recall: 6hours, 24hours, 3 days and 7 days - Feyman technique: rewrite definitions with your our words -> explain it to someone

To all students and people who wants success in grades, I am hoping you will achieve. Stay motivated.

Good that you posted it Otherwise everyone just talks "Do smart work...!" No one tells exactly how to get that crap done

*Greatness is built when nobody else is watching.* I don't know which stage of life you are in but I hope you never give up... 💥

Whoever is reading the comments- explain what you learn vocally like a teacher it helps

"Focus on being productive instead of busy." Thank you Elon 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Can u also make video on .... how to stop thinking about other things and other people while u r studying 📚?

these kind of videos always get recommended to me at the last days before the exams

I feel so proud , I've done all of these through my years of studying 🤣 and that's why when people ask me how you study it was hard to explain but here you go made it as a piece of cake. ♥️

EPIC! you have condensed all the how to study youtube videos into one rich masterpiece not wasting a second of the 9 and a half minutes!

*His heavenly looking study room and environment is the main key to be honest, which I do not have*

RU-vid liked the video and started recommending it to the target audience. That's how algorithm works

well, the technique that worked for me is spaced repetition. the more u recall ,the easier it will be for u to remember.

Guess who has an organic chemistry test tommorow and they're not studying 🙌😽

Elon. Next week I'm starting college... I simply love your videos, I've been watching them for like; the last 5 days!!! Keep up the gr8 work mate!!!

if you need a motivation to study just have a big ego, if I fail this test I'm gonna look bad compared to other people that passed it or just imagine your competitors thats studying hours and hours or maybe your friends " I'm better than them I can't fail this " the hardest part of studying for me personally is having the motivation to do so but by making it my necessity it helps me a lot fun fact! I got accepted in my dream univ 🥰 in compsci major

3:42 I started off my unit acting on it, and soon enough I starting retaining immense information! I was introduced this technique on your channel, and Ali Abdaal's channel. I started using this and my result came where I topped the grade! Extremely helpful and thanks a lot for this :)

Whoa!! Excellent content! I applied this methods of studying that you mention and I have seen an exponential improvement in my exams! Thanks for this! I appreciate it !!

studying hard is: learning a subject 8 hours a day without making a break and then nothing gets into your brain. styding smart is: learning a subject 4 hours a day with making breaks and everything gets into your brain. edit: i didnt watch the video beforehand

You nailed what people come to your channel for. Thank you so much, love your work!

super helpful video! I will definitely be using all of the methods mentioned! and I have noticed that all of the successful students use these same methods. Asking questions, spaced repetition, studying the most effective/relevant information first, and explaining the information to yourself or others.

1.asking question while reading 2.spaced repetation.( revise 3 times in 24 hr) 3.feyman techniques - teach it to someone else. 4.80/20 rule give most time to self study rather than school work or written work

Yay! 💥 Thanks fr dis amazing video! Gotcha complete my to-do-list b4 dawn✨✨✨

It was a really motivating video and practical steps were explained clearly. Thank you for the video. Keep on posting such kinds of videos for the much-needed motivation for the students.

had discovered this method, used to make massive notes before, now the only thing I write down is the questions that I can ask, the linking of the concepts is awesome moreover, u get a complete realtime feedback of what you know and what you don't know, so u don't waste time learning things u already know, but u direct ur time to things u don't know.

Your videos are absolutely AMAZING!!! I was feeling unmotivated, and I had no idea how to be motivated again, and how to start studying with a goal. Love your videos man! You are awesome! And a quick question, can you make a video about your desk setup? It look very cool! Keep posting videos! Your videos have a big impact in my life! Good luck!

omg i just saw this video and realized that ur channel has grew so much these past few months!! congrats on getting the attention & subscribers u deserve!! please keep posting videos, u're such an inspiration to ppl to workhard!!:)

Absolutely the first video with actually useful advices and information about studying! Thanks 👍

Ignore the negativity and the doubts people have on you. *Keep moving forward.* I am cheering for your success. ✋

I'm sure these strategies are going to be very helpful for my exams.Thank you so much😍😍.May GOD bless you🙏🙏🙏

So RU-vid knows I have my university’s last midterms coming up in my senior year ... thank you for the tips!

Thanks, I needed this... 4 years ago

In under 10 minutes, you deliver life-changing information. If students were to study and apply this information, it could change the trajectory of their academic life. This, in turn, would influence their career.

At First i study harder now iam studying Smarter

I am telling you this video is very much helpful. its true that noting down some important thing adds its urgency

I think theres nothing like " study less and get success "u have to do both in the same time

This is really helpful, thank you ✨

Thank you! this video gave me lots of tips and motivation for my upcoming exam.😃

Damn the artificial urgency or making a deadline on my own sounds like it's gonna be very useful. Really thanks for that!

Oh wow....thank you so much!! This seriously works..

Heard that Future Me? Alright for now I'll kick back and relax, Future Me you go this!

Just to share my thoughts, on 0:55 Advanced Information Processing. I learned to do this early in my childhood, (being able to read books at the age of 2) it is a really effective technique. I discovered that it's easy to learn and retain new information when you know "why" and "how" does that information works. By bridging information from various sources (eg reading other books) and "figuring things out", learning becomes more "active" rather than "passive". So instead of just mindlessly memorizing new information, try to figure out "how does it work" or "why does it work". Ask questions during or after reading, then try to answer them by opening another related book or search on Google etc. Yes, it can be a pain in the ass (when you really have 0 background knowledge about it), but the returns are worth it. Then to "reinforce" that information into your brain, do the 6:48 Feynman technique (the funny thing is you might create a better understanding in the middle of an explanation). PS: I'm a medical student (a lazy one), since our field requires a lot of information to be memorized, doing these 2 "lessens the burden of memorizing things". It really does save time and frees up your schedule to learn new things.

these videos are so helpful, im only in high school but all the tips in this are really helpful for motivation and productivity. I was just about to do my history homework but I wanted a different set up cause my notes weren't very neat and now instead of history notes, I have studying notes but im so grateful that I came across this video.

I watch a lot of these videos and yours really stands out. Great job!

All I can say is: thank you ❤

thank you, this is helpful!

Really loved that pareto principle.. gonna practice it form today itself

Thank you very helpful continue to inspire and encourage live God blss

The second technique doesn't have to be the exact pattern that looks stressful. Instead random reparation in 3-4 days are better.

Congratulations brother!. You are very smart. And full of language. It's plain to see how you find your words easily to make yourself well understood. I am impressed!!!.💥

This is what I needed. Thanks for sharing this important topic.

Love your videos about studying. It helps me alot. Thank you from bottom of my heart.

*Winners never quit, and quitters never win! All who want to be winners, you can do it ! Just keep going!🔥💪*

Yeh I'm gonna explain embryology to my sister who is studying business

This is a miracle video no joke. I started implementing this in for one day and not very well my quiz average went up by 20%

Hey dude! Nice video! I like the “questions” part of the video I’ll definitely try it out more. I also like having a glossary notebook on my side for terms!

Me feeling like a shit for not studying this whole ass year and freaking out my exam is tomorrow and don't even know how and what to study. Feel like I should go for imp things but I'm still eating my ramen and watching this .There are 10 chapter's and 10 hour's life is not hard unless we made it that way its really weird to be a topper couple of years ago and going to be a loser. Online class ruined my life and offline exams are gonna bury me edit: the exams went online may be because of prayer lmao. SO ATLEAST I WILL PASS. there is god y'all after writing this comment within 1 hour my school cancelled the exams and conducted it last week online idk how to feel..........

Thank you for me usually I don't study just do the assignment and take lectures notes to prepare for quiz/exams 😂

thank u man for creating this type of video

ty my friend rayyan rly needed this video

I was studying in the night of exams and i was the first at my classroom when others started preparing 3months before because i was studying smart and focusing on understanding not memorizing

How cute the way you explain!⭐️

Thanks a lot,, it was really hepl me, and i was glad to be one of your subscribers,,:)

This is amazing😭Thank you so much! I’m going to recommend this to my friends.

Im currently taking notes from this video

Thanks for the tips!! I want to ask a question, it is my own experience when i think i understand the material well, but once i didn't get the answer on the mutiple choice, i became panicked, and confused whether my knowledge for the material was right or not.... it is kind of really problematic while i was in exam , because i became blank after that. Anyone have any idea to fix it or ..?

That's great! Keep on helping me vro

I swear you’re the best. You’ve helped so much. 💖

This video came at the right time 😄😄
