LEREAD CAPTION
1️⃣ Study in shorter intervals and take breaks, (50 minutes studying and 10 minutes break)
Especially when studying subjects like Bio and Chem as they are heavily memorisation based.
1st year bio students need to follow this.
2️⃣ During your break don’t watch tv or surf the internet. Get outside if you can and go for a walk or at least listen to some instrumental music and walk around your hall or meditate or do some art. Anything that doesn’t require super directed attention, this allows your attention to be replenished. It’s like a muscle and you gotta give it time to rest. Tv doesn’t allow for that.
I often eat something or chat with my family.
3️⃣ When studying, take notes by hand and put them in your own words. Generating material yourself will encode the material better in your brain, and you’ll remember it better.
Most important for Biology. You need to write those terms in your own words and handwriting.
For chem its great to practice the reactions especially of organic chem.
4️⃣ Don’t just reread, rehearse! quiz yourself on the materials.
Solve past papers or MCQs from key books such as scholars.
5️⃣Organising information into groups that make sense create more connections in your brain and allow you to remember things better. The more meaningful connections you make, the better.
You can also make FLOWCHARTS. They really help organise info.
6️⃣Make sure the last thing you do before bed study.
No phone, No netflix. Your brain will process what you’ve just done while you sleep and this improve recall..
