So, I realised that I never realy introduced myself on here.
So, I decided to answer some basic FAQs so you guys could get to no me better! I'm not sure if you even care tho
For the sake of privacy, you can call me M! Or simply seonghwastudy, either works!
How old are you? What grade are you in?
I'm currently 16 and so I'm in 11th grade.
What classes are you taking this year?
As I'm an Indian in 11th grade, I'm taking the science stream, PCM and bifocal: Physics, Chemistry, Maths, Computer Science. But apart from that, I'm actually preparing to apply to an American University for Fall 2020 and so I gave the SAT exam in May 2019, GED exams in October and November 2019, I'll be giving the SAT again in December 2019 and I'm preparing for AP exams to give in May 2020. I'm giving 4 AP exams: AP Human Geography, AP Calculus AB, AP Statistics and AP US History.
What is your dream university?
I'm hoping to get into Penn State University next year!
I like to take notes in class. Then I read them and the Barron's prep book at home while underlining key points. For APUSH, I'll make notes because my class notes are super messy hahah! Plus I have tonnes of different resources for APUSH that I want to combine together.
For AP Calculus and Statistics, I'll read the content review in Barron's and solve the hundreds of practice problems and frqs.
For AP Hugs I'll read my notes and the Barron's book and solve practice questions.
I also love making quizlet sets wherever required and studying them using the learn mode.
Lastly, I'll just make tonnes of senseless mindmaps to review all the information during exam time. I'll just grab a piece of scratch paper and scribble out all the information in the form of mindmaps that won't ever make sense to me in the future!
I learn the best by writing a lot so I make sure to write our everything as much as possible!
Do you listen to music while studying. If yes, what do you listen to?
Yes, I do listen to music! I listen to music when I'm doing any form of numericals, when I'm writing out notes or when I'm just doing anything that doesn't require too much brain power! I love listening to my playlist!
Sometimes, songs with lyrics are too distracting so I'll just listen to
Both are Kpop, yeah hahah I'm just Kpop trash
Favourite musical artists?
As I said, KPOP TRASH. I only listen to Kpop songs heheh
BTS, VICTON, Pentagon, Stray Kids (ot9 forever TT), The Boyz (ot12 forever TT), Ateez (MY ULT), Up10tion, VAV, Oneus, Got7, Jus2, TXT, Astro, Onewe, Kard, The Rose (GO GIVE THEM LOVE), Bolbbalgan4, Woosung, DAWN plus I occasionally listen to X1, SuperM, NCT Dream, Day6, A.C.E., Sam Kim, Jimin Park and I also have a tonne of songs from many more artists in my playlist.
I don't really have a specific method or routine for destressing. I'm terrible at keeping a journal so definitely not that one lol. I just find listening to music and watching nice YouTube videos to be a good de-stressing mechanism for me. Probably not the healthiest but it works hahah! Also, spending time with friends and family helps me feel calmer and more relaxed!
I'm currently obsessed with tbhstudying's study with me's hahah! I also love studyquil, studioushailey, studytee, studyign, Mariana's Study Corner, mia ong, revisign and some others.
Apart from these, there are a couple of College Vloggers whose college vlogs are literally all you need in life to survive!
There's Yoora Jung, PaigeY, Holly Gabriel, alicedoesphysics and some others.
I also watch quite a few Korean study vlogs cuz Koreans study so much 😫 and watching their vlogs makes me want to study for the next 20 hours lmao
There's 작심 이주, LAMOON라문, Ryoko료고, HYUN현, SENSE센스, SEOYUN서윤, 달씨Darcie, 게인gain_vlog, HANBINI STUDYLOG and some more. Many don't have english subs, but honestly that doesn't really make much difference cuz you get the point anyways.
I guess that's it for today. If you have any more questions you want me to answer, feel free to leave them in the comments and I might make a part 2 of this!
