The main thing you need to study is focus. You need to be able to plan what is most important to study and then make a schedule to ensure you cover everything. After that, patience is also a good trait – every bit of studying helps, but not every bit will feel like it’s helping! 🙂
It can be difficult to study if you are using techniques that don’t suit you.
It’s really helpful if you can work out how best you learn and apply that to your study techniques.
I’m a practical study person so I remember things best if I’ve physically done them e.g. remembering equations for maths or science, I remember them better if I’ve used the equations and written them out or can apply them to practical examples.
I always found studying is tricky as I would sit down and be distracted by a lot of things and never get to it. Some things I have found helpful have been having motivation, whether that be through a sweet treat or overall goal. Some people also claim pomodoro method is quite good for studying but I found myself that the time breaks are too much for me.
The best trick I can give is to put your phone away, even let your caregivers have it for an hour or so! Put post it notes around your room too to motivate you “I will pass Mathematics”, “I will get an A.” You will be riled up to continue studying!
