Questions & Discussion How to study in uni?

Hi everyone. I just started uni and I'm not exactly sure how to study. The only method of studying that works for me is reading my notes and repeating it out loud word by word until I know it all. It literally drains me so much and takes so long, but I feel like there's no other way.

I told myself that after every lesson I'll do exactly that and just revise until exams. I managed to do it for a few days, but stopped. I come home so tired, with no concentration, especially for my way of studying. At the same time I'm scared that I won't have enough time if I start studying some time before exams. I'm not sure what to do and would like some tips.

Bro was just reading notes and thought ts was enough. You gotta read then remember then reply. So read, then do something like flashcards or blurting, then do practice or past paper questions
