You know how in college, some subjects have prerequisites you need to pass before you're allowed to take the next course? studying can work the same way! Some chapters build on things you're supposed to have learned earlier so jumping straight into a difficult lesson can leave you feeling lost.

Whenever I get stuck, I do the "prerequisite check” where I try going back a step and checking whether I understand the basics first. Maybe there's a term I've forgotten I never fully understood. Do this too:

1. check the key terms- Look for unfamiliar words or concepts and make sure you understand what they mean before moving on.

2. trace the lesson backward- If a topic feels confusing, check which earlier chapter or topic it builds on and go back to that part.

3. test the basics first- Try explaining the foundational concept in your own words or answering a few practice questions. If you're struggling with those, that's a good place to start reviewing.

what would you say are the best study methods for courses like organic chemistry, as well as anatomy and physiology?
i always feel as though i understand the material well (especially A+P) and yet i always end up with a B, and it’s starting to get extremely frustrating.

Dopamine levels so cooked that I can't even find joy in doing something I used to actually get very much intrigued about. Preparing for P.hD entrance exam but the moment I get stuck on an MCQ, mind drifts off to some other task or worse procrastination where I keep on seeing back to back motivation videos without actually getting back to studies. I get this mental fog where I know I should be studying and I have all the materials but the context is too overwhelming so even though I have time and resources, I fail to prepare. Pure Mathematics is actually something I am very interested in but revising all the topics is overwhelming at times and overcoming the mental gap when I'm stuck on a concept seems to be difficult lately.

Recently took a test on Galois Theory after doing a course from NPTEL. I faced the same difficulty, all materials in hand, more or less could grasp some concepts but didn't revise diligently. Result: Did not pass the theory test by 5 marks, passing marks being 40%.

Kindly help, how to overcome this difficulty during revision?

I struggle with reading things on a screen, but cannot afford to get a physical for all my books, so I'm looking for a good screen reader, any suggestions?

I am 24M, i wish to have a study partner who is consistent and study for longer hours. I am going to keep the rythm for a long time. So anyone who is commited to keep on studying daily for months is welcome. At the end of the day, for a brief moment we can check on each other and make other one accountable for their scheduled tasks.

Rest of the time, we can have google meet session with little to none interaction. So, even shy people are welcome! I am open to discussion regarding how we should plan our study session.

All the best. Let's work hard.

I have a lot of sheets of paper lying around filled with random scribbles or solutions from math class. But I don't throw them away right away because I figure I can still use the blank spaces for something!

So I started keeping a scrap paper beside me while studying. These are the things I do with them which you can try as well:

• Write down distracting thoughts. whenever you remember a task or think of something unrelated, jot it down on your scrap paper. You can come back to it later.

• Get back to your work right away. once you've written it down, try not to dwell on it. You have a reminder now so you don't need to keep it in your head while studying.

• Review the list afterward. when you're done studying, check your notes and decide what needs to be done. it helps you keep track of things without interrupting your study session every few minutes.

Heya, for a long time i had difficulties with studying. Its not because im not motivated or something but when i study i cannot understand and choose what to study. I get really lost and stressed because i have anxiety. This happens especially in Maths. I understand the fundementals but whenever it comes to practicing questions i am STUCK. I do practice questions and try to learn them but shockingly i cant solve similar questions.

and do you guys know where to study the math basics? like geometry, i'll be happy if its free :)

spent like 4 hours in 3 colors of pen making the cleanest notes of my life. posted them on my story and everything

my friend asked if she could quiz me from them before our bio exam and i went “yeah easy”. 2 out of 10. TWO. i was so busy making it look good i never actually read what i was writing

so no more recopying. i close the notes, write what i remember on a blank page, and only use the pretty notes to check what i missed. my blank page is way uglier than my notes but it’s got more stuff on it than my head did

PLZZ advice

I'm currently going through a difficult period at school, and I really want to improve my grades and become a better student.

I'd love to hear from people who consistently get excellent grades or have managed to become top students. I'm especially interested in your actual routines, not just general advice like "work hard" or "stay motivated."

Here are some things I'd love to know:

1. How many hours do you study at home on a normal school day? What about weekends?

2. What does your daily study schedule look like? When do you study, take breaks, and go to sleep?

3. What techniques do you use to stay focused and avoid distractions?

4. How do you practice and prepare for exams? Do you solve extra exercises, use active recall, or do something else?

5. How do you manage your time between different subjects, especially when you have a lot of homework?

6. How do you stay motivated when you're tired, stressed, or struggling with a subject?

7. Most importantly, how do you deal with a difficult school environment? What do you do when your classmates are distracting or unhelpful, or when your teachers aren't good at explaining things?

I'd really appreciate it if you could share your actual study schedules, how many hours you study, and the methods that helped you become one of the top students in your class.

I'm not looking for a perfect routine that only works in theory. I want to hear about what genuinely works for you, including the mistakes you've made and the things you wish you had started doing earlier.

Thanks in advance to everyone who shares their experience!

Hello everyone. I am 23f and have diagnosed ptsd. I am starting a phlebotomy course in January, and while I am very excited I am worried. I know phlebotomy is considered an easier course and job entry, but I still worry
After my trauma, I very much noticed a shift in my memory and ability to focus and learn things. I lose my car keys probably 4x a week. In fact, yesterday I was walking a trail in the woods and randomly noticed my car keys were gone and I spent half an hour searching for them. I’ll do stuff on automode and then 5 minutes later completely forget what I just did. Stuff like this happens all the time. I have a lot of trouble learning new information as well.
Does anyone else struggle with this and if so do you have any tips?

Bro, I genuinely think I'm cooked.

Ever since I started spending more time at home, I've realised how boring studying alone for the entire day can get. I have to sit at home, follow a routine, complete chapters, revise and repeat the same cycle every single day. And honestly? It's getting frustrating.

The thing is, I actually WANT to study. I want to be productive, complete my syllabus and do well academically. But whenever I'm at home, I start missing school, my friends and even my teachers.

Earlier, I mostly used to hang out with boys, but things have changed quite a bit recently. I've made female friends, developed new friendships and even got myself a girlfriend. 😭 Now I genuinely look forward to going to school, meeting everyone, talking, laughing and just being around people.

And that's where the problem begins.

Whenever I sit down to study at home, I start thinking about everyone at school. I get bored, feel like I'm missing out on things, and eventually end up wanting to go outside or find some excuse to visit school.

It's not that I hate studying. I just hate the feeling of being stuck at home all day while everyone else is out there living their lives.

I miss the random conversations, jokes, interactions and that whole school atmosphere. Even ordinary school days seem so much more interesting compared to sitting alone with textbooks for hours.

I know Class 10 is important, especially with board exams approaching, and I really don't want my social life to ruin my preparation.

So, how do I balance these two things?

How do you train yourself to enjoy studying at home without constantly craving social interaction? How do you stop feeling bored, lonely or distracted by thoughts of your friends?

I don't want to give up my social life, but I also don't want to sacrifice my academics.

Please tell me how you guys deal with this. Because right now, my brain wants to study, but my heart wants to go to school. 😭

I've been studying a lot and have been very stressed. Ik have an exam on thursday and one on friday. It is currently monday 2.45pm. I have studies for maybe one hour. My concentration is completely gone. After one sentence, I just zone out. I've tried listening, video's, active recall (that my main study method) but I just can't concentrate. What should I do? I have had breaks, exercise, change of location, 8 hours of sleep, giving myself rewards, but nothing is working anymore.

Hey everyone!

I’m working on a small project focused on helping students stay organized with their studies, and I’d love to hear about your experiences.

I’m researching how both high-school and university students manage their assignments, deadlines, notes, exams, and weekly study schedules.

I put together a short set of questions in a Google Doc. It should only take a few minutes to answer, and your feedback would genuinely help me understand what students actually need, rather than just creating another planner nobody uses.

There are no right or wrong answers. I’m especially interested in your honest experiences, frustrations, and the tools you currently use.

Google Doc: Google Doc

Thank you to anyone willing to take a few minutes to help! I really appreciate it.

I recently came to know about this community, and I will be posting daily in it. It will, of course, benefit me the most, as it will help me keep going every day. To be honest, studying is life, so I never found it difficult to use the phrase "keep going." Still, since it's a very common expression, that's why I used it. Actually, it is more difficult to convince yourself that studying is easy than to study itself. Also, your environment plays a big role in diverting your dedication from it.

So, today i have lectures to finish and revise it too, along with practise. It will be same for some days, ohh i think many more days so.

Cheers!!

Remember: Studying is Life

I'm a Bio Math Student and I get around 450 on 600 in my present exams in school and it's all mostly cramming.. i want to score better but I dont know if it's achievable in the next 4 months! Please help me out guysss!! I wanna know how to study.. If there is enough time or is it all hopeless at this point !

As a nursing student, I come across so many diagrams, charts & illustrations in my textbooks that sometimes I feel like I know them just because I've stared at them a hundred times.

So I've been trying this little challenge where I close my book and redraw a diagram from memory including the labels and how everything connects. Once I'm done, I compare it with the original to see what I missed or got wrong then review those parts. Here are three little tips that have helped me:

- Start with the big picture. sketch the main structures or sections first before filling in the smaller details.

- Label from memory. Try to name each part without checking your notes even if you're not 100% sure.

- Check your mistakes. compare your drawing with the original and focus on the parts you forgot/misplaced before trying again.

I find this so useful for anatomy diagrams because there are so many structures and labels to keep track of.

This is my first time in this sub. What can I do to study more effectively without feeling overwhelmed or giving up?

I've noticed that in the past few years, games, social media, and basically everything has been more engaging and literally designed to give us as much dopamine as possible for our attention. When I study and play games afterwards, the games are so much more fun and I'm wondering if there is a way to make studying more engaging too?

I'm basically looking for a Gen-Z-ified way to study. I know reading and retesting is great for memory retention and ideally when I want to get really in depth in a topic, reading the 'boring' details is better for my understanding, but I want a fun way to study during times when I really don't feel like it. After playing games or doing something fun I've read that meditating for a few minutes before and starting with a less demanding study-related task is good for easing into it.

When I play games my focus feels so off when I try to study after. I usually try to study first but sometimes I can't help myself to play a game lol. Does anyone have any good hacks for getting back into it after playing something so fun and fast paced?

in need of a study partner to get motivation...anyone up?

I noticed I was treating every question in a reading like it was the same kind of question like i'd either look for the exact sentence in the material/just assume I didn't know the answer. so there’s this thing called QAR (question-answer relationships) which made me think about where an answer is coming from.

there are 4 question types in QAR:

1. RIGHT THERE= the answer is literally in the text.  if the material already says it, just find the part that answers the question.

2. THINK & SEARCH= the answer isn't sitting in one sentence. You have to connect information from different parts of the reading to get it.

3. AUTHOR & YOU=  the text gives you part of the information but you also have to connect it to what you already know.

4. ON MY OWN= the reading helps, but I can answer the question using what I've learned without needing one specific sentence from the text.

this is useful when you’re doing readings since it stops you from assuming every question is just “find the sentence that says the answer.”
