How to Finish 6 Months of Study in 72 Hours

I think though not many institutions split up exams like that mostly you have exams on most days of the exam week!

Exam technique do the easy questions first! Then add to your grades once youve got the pass mark

Also its the parts of the lecture where you dont think why are you over explaining this when the lecturer is talking about it are the conceptual bits . Yes rote learning is absolute last resort i totally agree.

Higher order learning is easier though then you can get back to the lowere order stuff but i guess tgats what you are saying.

Is higher order learning not just easier i.

Omg relatable

Another question: I learned my lectures as you recommend with priming, big picture, active techniques, interleaving and so on...i wanted a solid base to be able to pass-but i aswell have some required reading on my list - like books that have some chapters that are covered by the lecture and some new stuff. now i have problems mentally integrating lecture and book - some infos are double in my mind but associated with lecture or with book (even with the mental image of script vs book page) and sometimes i lose my train of though when i switch from content of lecture while explaining it in feynman to the content of the book and cant find my way back. How do i integrate all the info?

do you know the difference between me and the rest of you my exam is in 2 hours i haven't studied ever about this topic before it consists of over 20 chapters which is over 1000 pages so wish me luck 😰😰

Thank u so much Justin, an awesome video like always!!, just in the right time for my next exam, i will try this and see if i can make it <3

😮I have 6 exams in 4 days I got sick and now only have this time I m dying😭

65 was a c+? My god... 80% was a c+ for ny school.

could you maybe talk again about structuring and planning for an exam - especially when you lost track?
When i work with the lecture slides to learn something the first time it still works kind of - the second day i may remember to review the day before - if im lucky i have some flashcards that i can do whenever - but with multiple exams there come times when i get stuck and dont know what to do with my time and focus regarding a certain class. I guess thats why people love blurting, write down what you remember is at least a starting point

I read cramming as creaming.

Thanks so much. This was needed

Be the examiner
Prioritize High logical >mid logical>lower logical
Higher logical - bigger concepts, principles
Low logical - technical information can be memorize later by memory place or other memorization techniques
How can understand others concepts from this information?

I'm in the Course and this still provides a good level of direction on how to approach academic set-backs/exam revisions.

Btw got a major assessment in a few weeks.

The way I'm learning how to learn.

Sir please a detailed video on how to tackle MCQ tests, how they are different from the written answer tests and related stuff.. You are the best sirrr. I am going to utilize this strategy to study for my semester exams.

This was me in December for my Calculus final. I studied for 4 days straight using a similar method and it was my birthday that week as well. In the end, I was able to get a perfect score in the final!

Is it possible to learn a game with your methods

I'm studying IT networks, that makes me wondering what is the high learning orders? Seems to be everything is important.....

Hi Justin, your content is always inspiring but for me at the same time, frustrating. It inspires about how learning actually works, but as a medical student who was purely relying on "writing and organising notes" for 10 years(also serious video game addiction which has been overcomed), I completely burnout this semester and fail exams, and I feel like in the past i can get B or even A is pure luck, because i can tell nothing solid is left in my brain except isolated information or vague memories.

I watched a lot of your videos espically about priming and mindmap, but I still struggle to do mindmaps. For an example, I need to learn muscles. There are pre-existing groups like muscles of head, muscles of neck, abdominal, back, pelvic etc. And what can be done to map on these groups? I just look at abdominal muscles, the only concept i know is there is little skeleton support in the abdomin so the muscles have to attach to pelvis and rib, which is correct. Then I just dive in to read the skeletal attachments, but after an hour i just cant remember the details (exactly which rib, inguinal ligament, thoracolumbar fadcia etc). I know it takes time to rebuild my brain but, how does priming and mind map helps if my previous knowledge gap(skeleton here) exist?

thank you so much...the example questions were a real help

Can you use mindmaps during lectures? I think that would be hard

Unfortunately for my post grad exams, the hardest questions are the lowest order questions because you can't reason your way to an answer without knowing the actual answer

"which of the following is NOT a poor prognostic factor of..."
And they present 4 options that sound reasonable. So unless you've read the same article they examiner has read, there's no way to "figure out" the answer

Oo my god everytime it's like you make the perfect video for what phase I am in my study journey😂😊❤

I just started cramming whole 2nd year subjects ( pharma patho micro ) in 10 days... so that I will get nicely built knowledge schema... on top of which I can read textbooks easily and retain more...

And you dropped this ❤

Awesome

Me watching this with my exam in a few days 👀

Well I have exam after three days and I haven't started yet I will follow your strategic cramming plan and I will see but I should mention I mean I barley remember anything but I have a previous look on some lectures of the exam but I guess I forgot them all I need to go over them althen on next level I will start go for other lectures .wish me luck ❤❤❤❤ it's final exam I need 30 marks to pass this course.

It might be a great idea to put your app ahmni on android too😅

Hey, can I ask? How do you manage your time to be a student, a lecturer, a person and a content creator at the same time, just being two of those is struggling 🗿

Justin please do a video on using your methods in a PhD scenario such as reading the literature and writing a dissertation

I had a bad experience in a final test, despite I didn't disapprove, now it is a reminder to study at least 1h every day for the coming tests. In the course they give a lot of tools to build habits. I learned the hard way, I stopped being perfectionist memorizing at the very last moment, and now I try to stay consistent.

this is my favourite video. you addressed exactly what i've been struggling with.

Thanks a milli, Justin and iCS team!🙏🏾

Chemistry practicals tomorrow thanks bruhh

Beautiful.

Bro you came just in time😭😭 Have an exam in 2 weeks

on time

please make a video for math heavy subjects....been waiting long for this!

this video isn't helpful for enginnering students tbh

How I took my time to study and never cramp.
Guaranteed.

I tried to subscribe to the course and I want to pay monthly. Can you help me?

Love the video abruptly ending mid-sentence, really matches the cram vibe. Also, I believe this approach is good in general just like you said. I get overwhelmed by a lot of things, because I cannot handle unknowns and have this urge to figure-out every detail of a problem once I'm faced with it. Which is not a feasible task, because solutions don't really exist in a vacuum. There is just too-much missing information to find an individual one for each problem. It would be a good approach for my stress levels to group problems under a common solution or solutions under a common problem as a sort of 'deductive library'. It does not address my intollerance for the unknown, but it offers a mental route that can process multiple problem/solution equations at the same time which should reduce overwhelm.

I indeed have an exam in 3 days 🥲
(I didn't study anything)

😂I can't believe that I have only 3 days before my exam and this video pop up🥲

this is not for medical topic,rather deep concept becz the ques are made tricky and u cant guess rather
