Spent a few mths studying how to efficiently study b4 I went into uni Most of which was spent w/ psych, neurosci & medschool YT'rs Got a 4.0 while learning a 2nd language & playing videogames half the day
My recommendations are.
1. Proper sleep
>8 hours + 30-60 min nap
>Nap after morning study block
2. 0 distractions
>Phone out of room 4ch blocked on PC etc Dont waste your willpower:out of sight=out of mind your will power is a lim. res. that affects study eff.!
3. Properly timed studying
>4 hours before you go to sleep are the most efficient for studying
>4 hours when you wake up your mind will be clear which also makes it a great time
4. Proper exercise
>Exercise before test or after studying
5. Motivation
>Motivation in high levels increases neuroplasticity and there is some argument that adults can have similar learning levels skills if the motivation is incredibly high
6. Proper diet
>Sugar impairs memory
>Proper supplements like omega3s
>Some evidence processed foods and oils impair memory
7. Focus
>3-4 hour study block full on no breaks
>Needs to be built up if you've never done it before
>Works best with added meditation beforehand
8. Abuse fasting
>Brain works and learns way better in a fasted state
>will prioritize knowledge learned b4 a meal
>do one meal a day & eat immediately after a 4-hour study block
>For long term cramming 2-3 day fasts are ideal, just don't eat and study all-day
9. Anki
>Use it for everything
>can learn ~10k flashcards per mth at max eff.
