BACK TO BEING A LANGBLR/STUDYBLR/WHATEVERBLR

Hey everybody, after two years and a half of med school on Peru 🇵🇪, I've decided to retake the things I left behind, and one of them is Tumblr.

I'm going to be posting here about

My journey to fluency in French (I'm on a B1 level right now) 🇫🇷

A polyglot goal: How I'm learning german, finnish and quechua (a sudamerican language) 🇫🇮🇩🇪🇵🇪

My book challenge of 2021-2 (a little bit late because it's almost june, but it's never too late to start, isn't it?) 📚

Productivity tips: How I manage my time in order to lead a voluntary association (also founded by me), being the director of a commitee in the Scientific Society at my University, being the secretary of a Neurosurgery Student Club and having (most of the time) good grades 🥸

If you're a langblr, studyblr or something similar, answer to this post so I can follow you!

If you're interested follow me so that we can be connected in this journey ❗️💗

Hii I just wanted to ask if you have any tips for studying as a pre med? I am sitting for med school entrance exams in a couple of months and I'm so freaked out that I won't make it😭😭

Heyyyy! First of all GOOD LUCK FOR YOUR EXAM!

And as for tips for studying, they are pretty much the same no matter what exam you take.

Plan out your studying (what you have to study, allot time for it, follow your schedule),

figure out your learning style and stick to it or switch it up if that helps,

give yourself time to relax and take a break every once in a while,

try to study everyday even a little so you keep your study momentum going, 

revise! Every Sunday or every 3rd day, try and revisit what you learned.

be confident in yourself and what you learned and that it’s all going to be fine :)

I do feel the need to reiterate, relax and don’t worry about it. Given the importance placed to entrance exams, and I mean the kind of intense importance us premeds put on one exam, it gets tricky to stay calm and not worry about it. Looking back, I wish I had chilled out more about the test. All the stress was unnecessary and counter productive. There must be ways you calm yourself, right? Exercise, cooking, eating out, fun time with family or friends or both, any activity, sleeping, yoga, whatever. Do it.

And, anon, don’t freak out! (I know, I know, easier said than done) But why do you think you won’t make it? You need a friend who gives one hell of a pep talk and you need to go talk to them. That’s what I do :D I could give you a pep talk too but I don’t know your situation. 

I hope you are doing well, but hit me up again if you are still freaking out. Wishing you all the luck in the world! I hope you do great ^^
