Studying in real life

Inspired by this post by the amazing @universi-tea, I took a photo of my desk this morning while I was studying. It’s nothing to write home about, but it’s the reality. Sometimes (a lot of the times) studying is not glamorous, perfect and something you want to share with the world. Sometimes, it’s working so much on so many things all at once while going to school, work and trying to have a life, that you don’t have the energy or motivation to make everything look pretty. 

And that’s okay.

What is your favourite study method??

As an engineering major most of my classes are more “practical” I guess (i.e. they’re more about solving problems than remembering certain things) so I can’t use most study methods. I do tend to read the book more than my peers since I’m not much of an auditory learner and need something I can actually see, and that tends to help for reviewing concepts. The thing I do most though, so I suppose is my favorite, is do loads of practice problems. ALL the practice problems. I go through so much paper come exams.
