Advice on becoming an Academic weapon
1. Listen to music that puts you in the mood
~ I love the website I miss my cafe/I miss my library where they give the ambience of being in a coffee shop/library. Also listening to classical music or slower music. It gets you in the mood.
~ You don’t become an academic weapon over night. For instance, if you never study then it’s better to start off small like only studying for half an hour and if you get C grades then you should start aiming for B’s instead of aiming for A’s straight away.
3. Embody a fictional character
~ Rory Gilmore is probably who comes to mind but it can be any academic character. Personally, I love Sweets and Brennan from bones. They inspire me to get good grades.
4. Play around with study methods
~ Different things work for different people. Active recall was my favourite method but now I’m studying health and social care I just take notes because I don’t do exams anymore.
~ Working non-stop is how you burn out. Take breaks while studying, have days where you don’t do any study. Don’t let studying become your whole life.
