I figured out how to study so fast it feels like cheating you know that feeling of spending days studying only to end up with the same grade as that friend who crammed the night before yeah makes you feel like an idiot you sacrifice all your free time skip the things you actually enjoy and in the end your grades are still average while your friends are out there having fun and to make things worse studying can be exhausting and boring which makes you want to procrastinate even more but the problem isn't you it's the dumb and
inefficient way you've been studying in this video I'll show you how to spend just 20% of your study time and still score top grades using simple techniques that almost no one knows about yet even an average student can easily apply and the best part you won't have to keep losing your weekends every time there's a test coming up so let's get started eight ditch the sweets do you binge on sweets before tests due to stress and anxiety well you're being dumb the truth is sugar is only going to make things worse studies from UCLA prove
that too much sugar slows your brain down making it harder to learn and if that's not enough research from the Journal of physiology shows that Sugar can mess up your focus and reasoning so if you want to study faster and crush the exam ditch the sweets and go for nuts fish or berries before the test those will actually boost your memory and keep you focused without leaving you in the sugar fog seven change your mindset it if you sit down to study already thinking it's going to be endless and boring guess what it will be
but if you stop being so negative and decide it's going to be quick and easy your focus will improve and time will fly your brain does exactly what you tell it to there's even a Harvard study that showed employees who believed physical work was good for their health actually saw improvements like lower blood pressure and even weight loss if it works for them why wouldn't it work for studying the bottom line is your beliefs have way more power than you think if you start studying convinced it's going to be torture then yeah that's exactly what
it'll be you idiot now try thinking differently instead of saying this is going to take forever try I'll knock this out in no time and instead of I'll never understand this go uh go with this one's easy I'll get it done in half an hour if you stop being so stubborn and adjust your mindset you'll see how much better your brain performs managing your expectations isn't just motivational talk it's a legit strategy to study faster and suffer less six use a timer just like managing your expectations can save your study sessions using a timer as
the perfect tool to stop procrastinating like an idiot if you think you've got all day to finish a task congrats you're definitely going to take all day that's the famous Parkinson's law work expands to fill the time you give it but if you set a 30-minute timer everything changes your brain registers the countdown and switches into full Focus mode forcing you to be efficient and get things done faster plus studies show that when we use a timer we naturally tend to finish tasks in the least amount of time possible the trick is to set a
time limit that pushes you but doesn't make you panic don't go crazy thinking I can't study all of this in 1 hour but also don't make it too comfortable or you'll just procrastinate instead of saying I'll study all day for this try something like I'll cover this chapter in 1 hour and see how much faster you get through it five prioritize important content when time is tight stop being dumb and focus on what really matters if you only had 2 hours to study Are you seriously going to waste it reviewing the stuff you already know
or diving into useless details that aren't even on the exam of course not that's where the 8020 rule comes in 20% of the topics will give you 80% of the answers on the test so instead of drowning in irrelevant stuff get straight to the point need an example stop rereading the entire textbook like that's going to help go straight to the summaries and the topics your professor won't shut up about do exercises on the most tested areas and review past exams ask yourself if I could only review one thing what would be the most useful
by prioritizing what's really important you not only save time but also avoid that awful feeling of studying everything and still learning nothing because honestly what's the point of knowing 100% of the material if only 20% is going to matter on the exam for study the answers first and if you want to stop wasting time and start studying smarter begin with the answers instead of wandering aimlessly through the entire book go straight to the questions and answers at the end of the chapters that's where the important stuff is doing question and answer exercises helps you solidify
your learning much faster without wasting time on pointless details and the truth is exams follow predictable patterns so if you focus on the right questions you'll know exactly what to expect understanding the structure of the answers and how the grading scheme works is the real secret sauce it's no use acting like a know-it-all if you can't answer the way the examiner wants and uh from what I've heard one of them even mentioned that your grades will only improve if you subscribe to the channel H yeah only if you actually want to get smarter three focus
on your weaknesses stop wasting time revising what but you already know you idiot instead focus on your weaknesses those areas you avoid because they require more effort it's easy to fall into the Trap of reviewing the topics you've mastered because it gives you that I'm doing great feeling but that won't help you when the exam comes face your challenges headon and concentrate on the parts you haven't mastered yet that's where you'll see real progress also try using horizontal learning where you connect different areas of knowledge to understand the bigger picture for example if you're studying
