If you're not getting the grades you want, it may not be because of a lack of effort. The way you study - the techniques and strategies - are just as important as the amount of time and effort you put into studying. Using these methods, you'll crush your college, university, or medical school courses, ace the MCAT, and even your USMLE Step 1 and Step 2CK boards.

Summary for myself (and those who may benefit from it) - you need both comprehension as memorisation (eg make a mindmap for comprehension and flashcards for memorisation) - listening your lectures on a higher speed isn't necessarily more effective but it can be - highlighting isn't effective - use active learning strategies eg self testing and spaced repetition

@jackielynnfoster8656 5 лет назад

Nursing is a real difficult course, my mistake and a big regret I listen to my mother advice, I can't meet standards. I read books and study but the college I attended never taught me anything and never train me. It is all a waste of my life, a waste of time, money and effort. Getting a job that is irrelevant and not related to your course is really a challenge. Nursing is only for hospitals, clinics and some specialized areas such as dialysis centers etc. Company nurses require trainings, seminars and experience which is I cannot afford. I wish there is someone who guided me when I was still young and didn't realize that it is a huge mistakes. Getting employed is really a challenge, creating another career path in the BPO industry but due to language difficulty local account pay very low. So this is my biggest problem mismatch of jobs. I guess I will settle for low paying jobs just to ends meet. Jobs that don't require a bachelor degree program. It's like my educational experience is only a High school graduate. Good education is really important in our modern society unfortunately I have a very poor educational background because of this poverty, living an empty life because of unemployment. Nothing to gain but I have so much to lose. Stupidity. Destroying a person's dream, life and future by sabotaging her Education and not providing jobs opportunity that can somehow uplift her life from poverty. Imbecile and stupid. The root cause of all the problems is having a very poor education. A part of my life is wasted, 5 years of my life is wasted.

@davecao908 4 года назад

You should consolidate everything into one study guide, only highlighting the most important points. Review anything that’s still a bit unclear. It’s too overwhelming to study the same material from difference sources the days prior to the exam.

If you could put together a video on how to optimize your anki settings, regarding changing your intervals to better assist in the learning process, while limiting review time on cards, would be interesting. Anki, as powerful as it is, can take up an enormous portion of one's day, and fiddling with the settings can free up lots of time.

Hey Med School Insiders! Last year (Grade 12) I began playing music or videos in the background while studying. This worked well for me as I was able to study for extended periods of time without feeling burnt out. This worked well for me then, but as I’m entering Uni I was wondering if I should abandon this habit completely, since I know including distractions lessens the effectiveness of study time.

But here is the kicker, if someone would have asked me to teach them what I learned that week I could tell them, but I still made a damn D on the test. It's bullshit but whatcha gonna do when the time is already gone.

@LeileyWow 3 года назад

The first point of this video hit me hard. I distinctly remember being told in o-chem by my professor that memorization wasn't going to cut it for the course. I misinterpreted that ONLY memorization wasn't going to cut it, and I shot myself in the foot by not doing basic memorization for the course. Yes, memorization alone won't provide success in o-chem, but it was still needed for a basic foundation for applying the concepts of the course

Dr.Jubbal! Thank you so much for this video! I have a quick question to ask you! It's my second time studying for the MCAT, and I still don't feel like I have a strong grasp on certain topics. Though I'm sure the materials will come back to me faster, would you suggest me to read only the chapter summaries, jump right to practicing problems, and identify weaknesses of knowledge by re-teaching myself and then strengthening the gap of knowledge afterward? It's hard to convince myself that without a strong base of knowledge, how can you master the concept through just practicing immediately? Thanks!

Try to read every lesson u've got in order in a very short time like a day maybe and focus on what u're studying, after a while you'll start to connect ideas between lessons and even come out with your own conclusions on them, but this method only works when you've already revised your lessons.
