tell me EXACTLY how you study

You read into it and summarize what you have to know.
Then you go over it and make sure you understand everything.
Then you excercise as much as possible and finally you train everything.
Flash cards, matching definitions and putting the question in a real life scenario.

I'm philosophy student, so i read a lot of texts. What helps me best is trying to understand the underlying structure. If the text is too complicated, then i learn by making elaborate models involving basic definitions and how they relate to each other.

Depends on the topic. Like for Calculus I would read the text. Then I would summarize the main concepts to see if I get it. To fully understand the material I attempt my best to at least do a couple passes at the proofs but frankly it waSnr necessary to pass the test. I do it so I can follow the logic. I would then proceed to take notes as if I plan on giving a lecture later. I would then proceed to work examples as if I were lecturing the material. Then I work every problem despite assignment only wanting me to do like 20 out of 120 problems. I mark all the problems I have difficulty with. I would then proceed to analyze the fuck out of my errors because stupid shit like that always appears on exams. Rinse and repeat. It's tedious but it works for me.
Also no Internet. Internet literally makes studying impossible. Fuck you if your textbook is online print to pdf and go offline if you want a God damn A

I'm not giving any advice for math, because it's not what I studied, even though I work in tech.
1. Get a study guide from the professor.
2. Use the key terms to focus on their subjects.
3. Use your textbook. A textbook is structured for you to learn the most in the intro to the chapter, and review what you SHOULD have learned in the conclusion and remarks at the end of the chapter.
4. If there are points at the end of the chapter that you are unfamiliar with, return to the chapter. In that chapter, there will be paragraphs with a clear intro, and a clear conclusion. You can scan these parts of the paragraph for the right information. Then, read the middle sentences, and conceptualize the words you read instead of memorizing them.
5. Stop stressing about studying. Get a decent night's rest, and make sure you're comfortable adapting to the issues put in front of you, and applying the knowledge. Wrote memorization will do you no good.

1. do a big line
2. read 50-100 pages
3. repeat until done with lecture material
Before even considering memorizing anything i try to break the topic down and tackle it from any angle necessary so as to truly understand the underlying principles.
I believe you don't know something if you don't truly understand it, and once you truly understand it, you don't have to remember a thing about it.
