Study methods thread

It's not impossible. You just lack discipline faggot.

You're going to have more than enough time to NEET it up in the Uni break after, just study

I dont' really have any method, I just get all the notes and lectures and immerse myself in it like 8 hrs a day for 2 weeks before exams after doing fuck all all semester and it works for me - No phones, no computers, just do those questions over and over again

Do you really want to be there?

Might as well ask here. I made a thread on /adv/ earlier but only got 1 reply.

What method do you guys use to study? I need to read A LOT of things in the next 2 months. I read reasonably fast and can understand and memorize the main ideas of what I've read. The problem is that I forget some details in after 1 or 2 weeks and I need to know those details.

There's no uni break for me here, new semester starts right after my exam

Turn off the computer, unless you're doing research but research should be done as soon as you get an assignment.
In the case that the computer is on, don't have any unnecessary windows open, no 4chan, no obscure fetishist websites, no music, nothing.
Try to minimize distractions where ever you can.
You have a window you can look out of? Shut the blinds.
People bothering you in the dorms or wherever you're studying? Go to a quite library.
Etc.

just non-stop school?

work for a bit then take a short break. Also reward yourself. Weed works as a reward for me. Alternatively you can kill yourself

>>34345503
Of course. My problem is that i'll do all that but my thoughts literally can't collect unless deadline is just around the corner and the stress kicks in

>>34345503
Forgot to add that with deadlines, try to establish a deadline with a professor, tell him or her that you will have a draft for them to look at 3-4 days before you really need to start working on the essay, assignment or whatever.

Don't push yourself using the absolute deadline, it just causes you to make some big mistakes on your assignment.
Also, try talking to your professors more, that way it's a bit more personal when you set up a deadline for a draft with them, you wouldn't want to disappoint them, right?
This has worked for me, but I can't say the same for you.

>>34345643
We don't work with drafts here but thanks for the advice anyway

>>34345695
What kind of assignments are they?

>>34345707
Currently i'm preparing for an oral exam on thursday

>>34345725
I would still recommend talking with your professor anyways, that always helps.
Try to ask for further advice and shit like that.
Never leave questions you may have unanswered.

Don't do it all at once, learn to break it up. Set a timer and read for 30mins-1hour then set a timer and take a 30min-1hour break (how ever long you read for) do this until you finish reading it, once you're done reading whatever it is repeat this. Don't do this all day obviously, figure out how long a day you need to read to have read it 3-4 time before your test day or whatever and divide your time that way.
