Just do what works for you, but most people study in 1 hour blocks and take 10 minute breaks.

Does not work for me as i cant do anything for 10 mins, i usually either study for like 2 hours or more, then take a long break...
Or if that doesnt happen i just dont study

i study for 25 min then 5 min break x however many hours i need to do

 

[rumbleroar]

Depends how into it I get...hahaha so sometimes I can do 2 hr blocks with no breaks or 30 minute blocks with heaps of breaks. It really depends.

Study from 9 to 5 break whenever I lose concentration

good strategy. i remember trolling my classmates when they say "bro how much u study". i tell them truthfully "i got about 2 hours yesterday" and they're like "nahhhh bro, your top of everything, 5 hours at least". so i just said "yeah...."

For every 4 hours I study I have a 10 min break.

For these holidays, I've been studying for 40 minutes and then having a break for 20 minutes (I think this is the most efficient) usually, I go over the 40 minute block cos I get really into it. That's the hardest part of studying, actually starting, once you start and get into it, usually you lose track of time haha. When I do past papers, I do the past paper and then have a half an hour break or play a game of League of Legends This is what works best for me lol.

That's really dependent on you. Some things you might want to consider when deciding on this include:

- The times of the day when you are most productive
- When do you prefer to relax and when do you prefer to study
- How much work you have
- Do you work better in large or small chunks

3-4 hours on normal days, i.e not leading up to assessments. This covers hwk/study/making notes etc.

Well ideally

3-4 hours a day has been working pretty fantastically for me, taking a break whenever I'm ceebs (but still maintaining some discipline). However I feel like I should be doing more in the lead up to trials... better start busting out the past papers soon (don't judge, mine are in 5 weeks).

Ideal hours = 24 hours / number of subjects

 

[nerdasdasd]

Ideal hours = 24 hours / number of subjects

Wrong

Ideal hours is relative to how efficient you study. If you are super efficient at maths (because you like it), then you can spend less time on it.

 

[d-alarmclock]

study 24/7

This is a question with infinite many answers, there are countless factors that prevents anyone from giving you the right answer apart from a purely lucky blind guess, it depends on how motivated you are, your ideal concentration span, how high is your work efficiency, how you study and etc... (put in the amount of effort and hours you think will be adequate to achieve your goals, and fundamental rules would include spend more time on subject you are weaker at and have adequate sleep so you have a good long term memory)
