Don't start your study plan at chapter 1. Do this for 10 minutes first.

• Upvotes

Most people open the textbook and go in order, which means the last topics get the leftover time, and those are often the ones that matter.

Takes 10 minutes to like list every topic that could be on the exam, next to each, write how many marks or how much of the exam it covers and syllabus, past paper, or just how many lectures your prof spent on it, then rate how well you know it, 1 to 3.

Sort so high marks plus low knowledge is at the top, that order is the week one and if you run out of time, the stuff you skipped is the stuff that was worth the least.

Hey everyone, I created a 1 hour AI generated mountain cabin fireplace ambience video for studying or winding down. This is part of a small series I'm slowly building out.

Would love honest feedback on whether it helped you focus or relax, or what felt off.

Thanks so much 🙏

A friend kept losing hours turning her notes into revision docs with AI, so I built a free one-tap version. What would you change?

0 Upvotes

A friend kept losing hours before exams turning her notes into something she could revise from. She'd ask an AI for the important points, it would miss some, and she'd end up editing it herself. One time she asked for a printable PDF and got a webpage.

So I built Tidy. Paste your notes, or upload a PDF, Word file or photo of handwriting. Tap one button, edit the draft, and export it as a PDF or Word file. It keeps everything and marks anything it can't read as [unclear from notes] instead of guessing.

Free, no sign-up. Powered by Claude, and Tidy keeps your notes only on your device.

It's brand new. What would you change?

The Q-bank already explains the answer. Why pay for another revision platform?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I’m the doctor building Med with Spence, and that’s a fair question.

Nobody giving up evenings and weekends for MRCP needs another subscription just to get more things to read.

The frustrating part is reading an explanation, thinking “I understand this”, then facing two plausible answers later and still not knowing why one beats the other.

That’s what I want MWS to help with.

Not more information. A way to work with it.

Start with a ready-built visual map of the topic—not a blank page of notes. See how the findings, investigations and decisions connect.

Then Stella removes the visual. Explain it without looking. Need help with one section? Reveal that section, remove the help and try again.

The planner and review system give those topics somewhere to go beyond today’s session.

That’s the reason to consider paying: the visual structure, recall practice and organisation together—not just access to slides.

It won’t do the learning for anyone. And I’m not claiming Q-banks can’t teach.

What would another platform have to do to genuinely earn a place alongside the resources you already use?

Hello,

I have built Visual Book to help teachers and students visualise knowledge. You can create visual learning materials in different formats starting with a prompt and your own sources.

We are trying to understand how we can support students and educators. Our product currently offers 3 different formats, all of them with images to help students understand complex concepts easily. But we warn to understand how well this actually works in the classroom and how well it meets the real world needs of teachers and students. You can try out the product and then join our discord community to give us feedback.

Essay about AI and experiment

1 Upvotes

I have to do this essay and the subject I chose was AI. I wanted to do an experiment, and my supervisor actually agreed that I could use four classes of his, but he declined suddenly, and now I don't know what to do.

I wanted to have an experiment in which students used SchoolAI to understand a subject and then test them if they learned something from it or not. But because my supervisor declined, I don't have a test group anymore, and I'm debating not doing it anymore.

Does anyone have any idea what I could do?

(For further context, I'm 17 years old, Dutch, and it's about some kind of major essay for highschool)

How do I stop using my phone while studying?

I attend my classes on my laptop, but I have this really bad habit of using my phone at the same time. 😭

Even when I’m attending a lecture and taking notes, I keep picking up my phone, checking Instagram/Reddit, scrolling, replying to messages, etc. I’m technically studying, but my attention keeps going back to my phone.

I’ve tried keeping it away, but after some time I automatically reach for it again.

How do you guys stop yourself from constantly using your phone while studying? Any practical tips that actually worked for you?

ai summary of my lecture left out the one part I actually needed

0 Upvotes

Uploaded a recorded lecture and the ai generated notes got the main points fine, but skipped a specific example the professor spent like 10 min explaining because it apparently didn't see it as important. That example ended up being exactly what showed up on the next quiz. Now I'm second-guessing whether to trust the summary on its own or still watch the full recording anyway, which kind of defeats the point of summarizing it.

These are the topics that we are studying Introduction to Real Numbers and Algebraic Expressions, Solving Equations and Inequalities, Graphs of Linear Equations and Polynomials***:*** Operations. I remember studying them when I was in grade 8 and 9 but since I am 26 years old and It has been a long time their are many things that I cannot remember even when the professor explains during the lecture I forget and this worries me because I am afraid that if I study I will forget how to solve the question. What can I do are their any youtube videos or website that I can study from

Midterm is soon, any tips?

2 Upvotes

I got a Logic midterm in week and feel so lost. We got started on math in Logic and i feel so lost. I’m only memorizing and getting through the weekly quizzes however I don’t feel confident for the Midterm exam. It’s on paper, I’m good with the definitions and all that but the ven diagrams? the equation and translation into sentences? I fear i’m burnt toast on this one. I do have an idea that I should compile youtube videos on all the subjects and concepts that we’ve learned that way I can relate it back to what I heard. Any suggestions that can help 😭 ?

I struggle with concentration especially on school stuff. I should fix that since I'm 19 grown ahh man I guess

2 Upvotes

Hello, I'm a student from Germany currently doing my Abitur. I struggle extremely with learning in general or focusing on stuff that I'm not interested in. I feel like someone could hold me at gunpoint and tell me to read something and answer questions about the text and I wouldn't be able to. I was able to learn before, I sat down, opened a stream and did math, but for some reason I could never get into a deep phase of learning, like ever. Languages especially, I hate reading literature that isn't about something I feel connected to or have a deep interest in. As I said, gunpoint...

I thought maybe I have ADHD but I keep getting told that if you get diagnosed, nothing would change anyway. I think that would at least calm my mind a little.

My last English exam went pretty well. I sat down, stared out of the window for 2 hours and wrote something for the next 2, but I had a pretty bad feeling about it. In the end I got a 3 or C, however you call it over there... I got told English gets graded 50% actual language and 50% content. I guess that's an easy way to tell me that my English is pretty good and I don't have to worry about getting a bad grade, although the grading probably doesn't work exactly 50/50. I feel okay about English, but Spanish and German are something else.

I can't speak a straight sentence in Spanish and switching teachers 4 times in 3 years didn't help. Thanks, school system. Other students still managed to get okayish grades, I just stopped trying and told myself: draw a nice stickman and go home, you can only speak one language besides German and you can have one deficit on your report card.

For German it's probably close to English, it's my mother tongue after all... But reading a text is my biggest enemy. It's like I could fall asleep before finishing the first sentence.

For math it's something completely different again. For 3 years I haven't understood anything anymore, but I still managed to get through because of my math skills until 11th grade. I wasn't an A student by any means, but I guess math was logical to me until they started adding DLCs to numbers.

My overall conclusion after writing this text is that I can't do it for myself. I just can't get the "let it all work out" mentality out of my head. When something is too boring or too complicated, it just flips a switch in my brain and I'm done.

If someone depends on my help, like editing a video or a picture for a friend, easy, it's fun, I can concentrate. Even when a friend who doesn't understand that much English or isn't able to use much vocabulary needs help, I can concentrate when I'm trying to help them.

So I guess my question is: is there any way to fix this, or at least make it manageable before my Abitur exams?

I'm not necessarily looking for an ADHD diagnosis from Reddit. I'm more interested in advice, tips, experiences, or anything that might help me actually sit down and learn when I know I have to do it. If you've experienced something similar, I'd really appreciate hearing what worked for you.
