[watermelonenjoyer]

[iloveeggs]

mine plan is not in hours but in tasks. im just getting ahead enough for me to not have to worry too hard about the upcoming exam block and to revise over things i was bad at last term so im not falling behind during trials. the rest of it is going to be ucat spam

how did everyone go with this

 

[rh_06]

rather than js sitting for hours upon end, yall should try anki (or any other flashcards app) - active recall + past papers is key to success. That way, you only need to spend maybe 3hrs a day, everyday. Doing e.g. 3hrs everyday is much more effective than doing like 6hrs one day and taking a break the next ~ unless you wanna do 6hrs everyday but thats js calling for burnout ;-;

this is my DREAM schedule... but w/o school my life is so unstructured and lazy what r ur tips

 

[ButteryNucleotide]

i'm only doing a couple hrs of study a day, but honestly it's not resulting in much. i'm so slow at maths exercises, n i get so unfocused so easily (e.g. rn)

pretty much just this, just changed around when i need to eg-diff subject than shown
its sincerely just mind over matter; an unstructured day is a day wasted imo.
set ur mind to what u want before ur day starts, eg- i read a couple of motivational quotes til one hits hard. one good one for eg to keep in mind s "i would rather deal with the pain of discipline and taste the juice of success, then taste the pain of failure and the spiteful juice of it.

the best you can do rn is START NOW
start with your easiest subjects (getting easy high marks in) then work from there - do the 'traffic light system'

during finals i had a schedule that evenly distributed my studies (unfortunately i didnt stick to it but oh well)


i said 30min each but im not someone who sticks to times i do quantity of work > time

anyways this was the schedule (it has 6 subjects - assuming u do) n the traffic system so yur
mind you this was a schedule for after school so if you can fit more subjects a day that'll be perfect

another tip: do as me - quantity>time bc realistically you might tell yourself 'im going to do chapter 3 from module 7 + practice questions for [whatever subject] between 9am-11am' but then spend all that time 'understanding' instead of actually studying if ykwim

so dont set time boundaries
say 'im going to do chapter 3 from module 7 + practice questions for [whatever subject]'


and remember at first it might be hard to stick w all your study schedule (eg you might do 2/4 subjects bc they're time consuming) but thats ok with more practice you might balance your time more effectively (remember 2/4 subjects a day is better than 0/4 subjects a day)

[note: i said 4 subjects as a guide you might wanna adjust that to your preference]

thank you sm that's really helpful and i'm glad you said i should start now because i feel like i just don't have enough time but in reality doing something is better than doing nothing about it. i was just sitting here digging myself into a deeper hole out of laziness and my worse-than-usual mental health. anyways thanks again, i'll try your strategy out
