how to learn new content and never forget it

save this for your next academic year and finals, and it’ll save your grades and time.

1. whenever you read a paragraph with new content, close the book/look away and ask yourself: “what have i just learned?” explaining the concept to yourself right away and asking follow-up questions will change the way you retain new material forever.

2. at first, it’ll be daunting, and it’ll be pretty hard to actually bring yourself to do this. trust me, it’ll be worth it - as this is scientifically proven one of the most effective study techniques.

3. to try this out, set yourself a timer for how long you estimate learning a concept might take. now take away 20% from that estimate. you won’t be able to reach this goal with basic highlighting and re-reading techniques - but with active recall, you will.

4. once you’ve understood the concept, use spaced repetition systems like anki flashcards to force yourself to retrieve this information in a set period of time. this way, your brain will always be reminded of this concept before it could possibly forget it.

5. teach it to others as much as you can. as with the old wisdom “see one, do one, teach one”, one of the only guarantees you’ve really gotten something is when you can effectively teach it.

hope these are helpful for you!!

I love having this account. I love talking to people and making friends and realising I'm not alone and feeling motivated and being excited to study, but the inherent obsession of the community with aestheticism really bothers me. Like I get it if you want to make pretty notes, go ahead, you do you, but as a fellow member I've felt(I'm pretty sure others have too) that my work is just not pretty enough or aesthetically pleasing enough or just not up to the fucking gigantic standards ive set myself up too, yk and Ive been thinking about how ridiculous those thoughts are, because like you know what, studying isn't aesthetic, atleast not for me, it's messy, it's stressful, it's frustrating and it is definitely not perfect so I want to fuck shit up, disrupt the system, the above picture is what studying actually looks like for me, it's not perfectly aligned expensive pens, it's used cups lying around, it's not 100gsm paper, it's my bed covered with notebooks, it's not perfect routines, it's late nights. And you know what. Im proud of it. I'm proud that I'm getting shit done. I'm proud that I'm not procrastinating and wasting my time and above all, I'm proud that I'm being real.

I'm in no way saying that wanting your work to look nice is bad, I'm just saying that this is me trying to let myself make mistakes and not have 100%, 10/10 perfect notes.

It's 4:05 AM here and all of this is prolly just coming from a weird place but I really do believe in this message and I hope I don't feel differently about this in the morning.

Anyway, wherever you are, lots of love and I hope you're safe and healthy, take care💞

How to prepare for an exam in less than a week

I got an anon ask enquiring on how to study for an exam when only 4 days are left and I deleted it by mistake🤡

So anon if you’re seeing this, I’m not ignoring you, I’m just idiotic sometimes.

Anyway, First order of business should be taking a few deep breaths, you’re gonna be fine, You can do it and i believe in you:)

My usual plan of action in such a situation would be:-

- divide your syllabus into 3 parts, so that each portion has a few chapters

- You’re gonna do 1 out of 3 portions on the first 3 days

- I believe in extensive testing, So read notes of a chapter or watch a video and then TEST YOURSELF.

- You can use a study guide for questions or just choose whatever study material you think the exam is going to be based upon.

- After you’ve done the test, evaluate yourself and see where you went wrong. Write down the names of the topics that you found difficult (for later reference)

- Complete the chapters you’ve assigned for each day

- On the last day, Go over and understand the logic behind the questions you got wrong. Then make a mega question paper, filled with all those questions and test yourself again.

- After that, just read notes and watch videos of your study material. Go over everything again

- If you have time, attempt question papers from previous years and stick to the stipulated time limit for eg: if your actual test’s duration is 3 hours, solve the previous years’ question paper for 3 HOURS ONLY.

- Please sleep for 8 hours everyday. You won’t be productive if you don’t get adequate sleep. Early to bed and early to rise rule.

- EAT. don’t starve yourself please, keep having light snacks every once in a while.

- Constantly drinking a cups of coffee may seem tempting but there are side effects so please try to limit it as much as possible.

- Take breaks after each chapter’s test but you can also choose to deactivate social media if it distracts you too much.

Whatever happens, at the end of the day this is just an exam. So please don’t be too hard on yourself, try your best but please don’t jeopardise your health in the process

Hope you do well!

Love, N.
