My notes for this video (in my own words):
1. Start studying way earlier than the actual day of the exam. People don't do this since they feel no pressure to study early and to counter this, set your own earlier deadlines.
2. Review your lessons every after lecture by quizzing yourself to help you retain the information you just consumed.
3. Don't study just so you can feel productive. Do active studying even if you follow step 1 and the exam is still far away.
4. Every after your lecture ends, write down the main points of the lesson OR write down the points of the lesson that wasn't very clear to you.
5. 80-20 rule; just study the parts that you think will be included in the exam. Key word: study. So I think it's fine if you read the 80%(background of the lesson)
but when you will be studying for the exam, just study the 20% (past papers, relevant info, etc.).
6. Set a number of hours a day you're going to study daily. (For me I think 6 hours would be good.) At the start of the semester, just gain background knowledge on the topic. Then as the semester progress, start actually studying for the exam. So in line with #5, do the 100% at the start of the semester then while at it,
determine the 20% so when it's time to study properly, you can study efficiently. Of course, this is easier said than done.
7. Find your biological prime time and enter a flow state of studying during that time. Personal note: I think the most important tasks must be done during this state to achieve maximum efficiency.
8. Create soft deadlines (earlier than actual deadlines) for yourself. To motivate myself into doing this, just remember that I don't have just one subject but rather, around 10 courses during this semester. I need to apply almost all of these steps to all those courses so freeing up time to do that would be very ideal.

"Study to learn not to pass exams" that phrase has motivated me so much, thank you so much sir.

My igsce exam is around may/June so I have a pretty decent amount of time to apply all of this stuff to my routine. Starting by tomorrow 😁👍

[shaathiraamna]

Thanks for the tips, Though I'm a topper and getting good grades in class I don't revise early, but if I did it, I will be unstoppable🤩
I will try these from tomorrow. Thank you once again ❤️

Please make a special video for med students and their time table as well tips to cover their syllabus faster as the syllabus is super vast and the time is less as well ...it would probably be best content which is going to help med students just like me these days !

[naomimutale]

Thanks Elon and most of things you mentioned I actually practise them and they work for me.
