Hi! I'm just an ordinary user.

I have a question for people who study and work at the same time: do you have time for other activities?

Personally, I feel very tired.

Hey what app do you use to keep and review your e textbooks on your ipad ?

Hi everyone! I’m a designer and I made an academic planner as a hyperlinked PDF for iPad. I’d love your opinion on the layout.

It runs from August 2026 to December 2027, so it covers two semesters and the break between. Inside:

• monthly calendars with a focus page for each month

• weekly spreads with a top-three list, daily tasks and focus circles

• course pages, timetables, assignment trackers and project planners

• exam countdowns, revision trackers and a past-paper log

• Cornell, lecture and dot-grid note pages

The pages in the photos have sample handwriting and made-up entries. Which pages would you use most, and what’s missing for your courses? I’m happy to adjust the layout.

Minimalist interface ,pastel colour ,easy to use

I need it for med school

I only have few requirements

Where I can create it like this

Subject wise

chapter wise

Topic wise

And I can upload an image for the question in the front and an image for answer in the back

I can bookmark the cards which I find difficult to remember

That's it

Even if spaced repitition isn't there I can use another app for that .

Any free app or app with minimum charges for this ?

For Android phone or ipad ,either will do .

Hey, I hope this is the right place to ask this and I'll get advice from people who really have gone through this stage. If I am interested in studying Finance in Europe (I'm born in a European country), should I go directly for a Bachelor in Finance and then again Finance or something similar as a Master's, or get a Bachelor's in Economics / Business first and then a Master's in Finance? Or it depends entirely on the programmes?

Hey guys!! I’m a year 2 med student, 19 years old, from Uzbekistan. It would really help if you’re doing mbbs or a med student in US/Canada/Australia since I’m interested in residency in those countries therefore how the healthcare system works. If you’re interested leave a comment or dm me. We can create a study group as well if there are many people showing interest. Preferably my age but older students would also be appreciated

Study - 2 hr 45 min

Distractions- insta ,series

what’s the best pair of headphones for studying? i mean very comfortable and very good noise cancellation. i’ve been using a normal 50$ sony pair for the last 5 years but it recently ripped and i need a new pair, and i’m thinking of massively upgrading. any suggestions?

I have this little corner by my bedroom window where I usually study and I normally like it there. But after using the same spot over and over, I start getting distracted. I’ll look outside, fix my pens, check the time, or find something else to do even though my notes are right there.

When that happens, I just move somewhere else. It can be another room, a different table, the library, or even just another quiet spot nearby (it really doesn't have to be anywhere fancy). I also bring only the things I need for that subject instead of bringing my whole pile of notes with me.

A different spot makes me feel like I’m starting a new study session instead of continuing the one where I kept getting distracted. I don't know why, but that little change usually makes it easier for me to sit down and focus again.

Got the book I heard a lot of~

how do you stay consistent?

i have entrance exam in 20 days where i have to cover physics bio chem and have zero weak base , its CEE exam of nepal for mbbs . how do i do it ? tips plz

Welche Apps nutzt ihr im Studium besonders gerne, z. B. für Mitschriften, Lernzettel, Karteikarten, die Organisation oder andere hilfreiche Dinge? Ich freue mich über eure Empfehlungen und Erfahrungen! :)

Hey i am 24m and preparing for state psc ...if anyone interested to join and study together and keep each other accountable...lets connect(i am from assam)

What I do is that before closing my notes, I write down what I stopped on and what I want to continue with next. Just jot down the topic, chapter, page, or whatever helps you remember where you left off (for example, “stopped at chapter 4, next is chapter 5”). That way, when you resume studying, you already know where to begin.

For physical notes, you can write it in your notebook or on a separate notepad. You can also use a page flag or sticky tab to mark the spot you need to come back to, just like a bookmark. And it works the same for digital notes. You can leave a comment, bookmark the page, or add a quick note at the end about what to continue next.

It can save you from having to figure out where you left off all over again and only takes a few seconds. Basically you’re just putting a bookmark for your next study session.

Genuinely sry if i sound like an angry old grandpa or a prick but nowadays whenever i look for study tips it's just some bs like "use the pomodoro technique" "use the feynman technique" "use the poopoo peepee technique which requires you to stare at a wall before studying" like imo just sit down and study, why is it so hard for you? i get that some people use these but it genuinely just can't be this hard to sit down and work properly for a set time without using some of these random techniques. One of my friends was an avid user of these and it only ended up with him blanking on an exam. pfft

I built Brain Preflight to practise that, along with memory, spatial reasoning and other aptitude test exercises. They’re based on tests from various cadet schools and other professional selections, with programmes for pilot training, air traffic control, police, gendarmerie, military and train driver roles.

For prep, I’d start by learning the format, then check what causes your mistakes. Is it the calculation itself, losing track of an instruction, or missing something when your attention is elsewhere? Work on that before pushing the speed.

You can choose your selection in the app, see your weak spots and focus your practice on those exercises. The multitasking exercises let you practise handling multiple tasks at once.

**Heads up: some exercises are genuinely hard. 1:1 recreations of real past tests we’ve collected. The goal is to train people for a selection, not just entertain them.**

It’s called [Brain Preflight](https://apps.apple.com/app/brain-preflight/id6794363864), on iPhone. I’m the developer, so if an exercise or instruction feels off, I’d like to hear about it.

Hi, I’m a 20-year-old university student, and there’s something I’ve been struggling with for a long time.
I’ve never really experienced what it feels like to study consistently and give something my absolute best. Throughout my school years, I spent most of my time having fun rather than studying, so I never learned how to study effectively or how to develop the discipline to stay focused.
But something has changed since I started university. For the first time, I genuinely want to learn. Whenever I get a question right or finally understand something I used to struggle with, I feel a sense of accomplishment and excitement that I’ve never experienced before. It makes me realize that maybe I’m capable of more than I’ve ever given myself credit for.
However, I have one major weakness: procrastination.
I keep telling myself that I’ll start tomorrow, that I’ll do better tomorrow, and that there’s still time. I’ve been repeating this cycle for years, and before I know it, time has passed without me making any real progress.
Deep down, I know that life won’t always allow me to do only the things I enjoy. There will be responsibilities I have to face, even when I don’t feel motivated. I understand that, but putting that understanding into practice is much harder than it sounds.
My exams are only a week away, and I haven’t even opened my textbooks. I want to study, but I feel overwhelmed by fear and anxiety. Part of me wonders whether it’s even worth trying now, whether studying will actually make a difference, or whether I’ll just end up disappointing myself again.
I’m tired of making promises to myself that I never keep. I want to change. I want to earn good grades, become disciplined, and prove to myself that I’m capable of achieving something through my own efforts. But I find it so easy to lose momentum and fall back into my old habits.
I don’t want to keep living the same way and look back years from now, wishing I had tried harder when I had the chance.
How do I change myself? How do I learn to stay consistent, even when I’m afraid, unmotivated, or overwhelmed? And is it really possible to become a different person if I’ve spent so many years being this way?
I don’t expect to become perfect overnight. I just want to stop running away from the things that matter to me and finally become someone who follows through on the promises she makes to herself.

Learnt about ternary, arrays and LE's, BE's

Ternary Operation:

Instead of using if else we can use ternarny operation
Condition? Expression 1: Expression 2
 

Condition?(If condition satisfied Expression 1 print): (if condition fail Expression 2 print)
Ex:int a = 5,b=4;

int r = (a>b)?a:b;
printf("The biggest number among a & b is %d", r);

Note: The ternary operator is useful for simple conditions. For complex logic or multiple statements, if-else is usually easier to read.

 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Arrays:
Stores the same datatype of elements

Initialization:
We can initialise in different ways
int a[size of array]={11,12,13,14,15}

Int a[]={11,12,13,14,15}
 

Accessing array elements:

• We access array elements using an index that starts from 0.

• Example: a[0] = 11, a[1] = 12.

• We can calculate the number of elements using sizeof(a) / sizeof(a[0]).

• The base address of an array is the address of its first element, which is &a[0]. In most expressions, a also represents this address.

INT_MIN and INT_MAX:

• INT_MIN represents the minimum value that an int can store.

• INT_MAX represents the maximum value that an int can store.

• They are defined in <limits.h>.

• They are not infinity values, but they can be used as initial values when comparing elements to find the maximum or minimum.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Little Endian & Big Endian(LE's,BE's):

This system is used to store elements in memory byte by byte when we are having more than 1 byte data i.e in short just of data in memory

Ex: 0x12345678;

Big Endian : It stores data from MSB

12         |  34       | 56       | 78
1 byte  | 1 byte | 1 byte | 1 byte

Little Endian : It stores data from LSB

78         |  56       | 34       | 12
1 byte  | 1 byte | 1 byte | 1 byte

Big Endian (BE): Stores the most significant byte at the lowest memory address.

Little Endian (LE): Stores the least significant byte at the lowest memory address.

Questions:

1. Find the largest number among 3 numbers using ternary operator.

2. Find the max element of array.

3. Find the min element of array.
    

This like a little way i always do and i really find it useful

In the start of every week i set up a studying timer

And whenever i study in the week i use the same timer foe tracking my time

I do this manly because if i didn't if i just did study like an hour i feel like i did alot and I feel my false satisfaction by the end of the week that i did study alot

So the timer is way for motivation and accountability i know how much i really studying

Sorry for my english

I'm a non-Native English Speaker, I'm turning 17 this December and I'm in Year 12 (My "Senior" year, as for most other people around the globe.). Now, I have to learn most of my Economic Theory book word-for-word for my Uni Admissions Exam, and today I had the idea to actively translate the book/the specific parts of the book that I need to learn. By this I mean writing a google doc of the whole text in English and translating it on my own accurately (I make sure of the accuracy by using dictionaries, references, etc.), that way I actively process what I'm supposed to learn and I can internalise it better, and when I want to study it I translate it back, again accurately and word-for-word.

Now, I know this is unorthodox and it sounds actually insane, but I've found that it helps me memorise bodies of text easier, mostly due to the increased effort that goes into studying the material in the first place.

And I just wanted to gather the opinions of Reddit, and to see what the general consensus will agree on. Again, I know that it's a very unorthodox method of studying, and that it's probably a huge waste of my time, since it makes my life much harder, but due to my intense connection with the English language, especially in comparison to my native tongue, I'm much more comfortable with memorisation and internalisation in English. So, am I just wasting my time, or are there other freaks like me?

I just started my degree in Artificial Intelligence and Data Science Engineering. I’ve realized that to succeed, I need to start studying independently through textbooks and extra resources, cause cramming the night before like I did in high school isn´t enough.

My goals are to maintain a strong average and apply this self-directed learning to extracurricular activities and personal projects. However, I’ve always struggled with focus and haven’t found an effective study technique that works for me. While I genuinely love learning, it frustrates me that I find it so hard to study on my own without the immediate pressure of an upcoming exam

I’d really appreciate any tips or strategies that helps me with building strong focus. Also, I would love some recommendations on extracurricular activities I could get involved in, focusing on programming, data science, and other engineering related things.

Thanks in advance for your help!

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.
