So, the last time I posted original content was almost 3 years ago. I was still in high school, suffering while loving the IB, with no idea about what major I wanted to pursue. 

A lot of things have changed in these past years, I recently switched majors, I´m reading a lot (something I hadn´t done since pre-IB times), I´m in a healthy and loving relationship, and I´ve grown immensely as a student and as a person. I love the studyblr community and now that I am finally studying a career that I genuinely enjoy, I hope I can start posting way more often, and talking about my passion for learning new things on here.

general mathematics spread! this week was about math in finance. the classes for me were just like reviews since I learned this back in senior high! ☀️

19 March 2020 | I’ve been rather quiet lately, but here is a little glimpse into what “social distancing” looks like for me. It just so happened that this was the first semester of my program that I was doing almost entirely by distance anyway so remarkably little has changed for me in how I do my coursework. I’m thankful for how little the present pandemic has disrupted my education and know that very few can say the same. My husband, who was until a couple of days ago in the midst of his clinical rotations for medical school in a nearby emergency department, has been much more directly affected and involved in combating the current outbreak. Join me in praying for our entire world—as no one is unaffected by this virus—for when one suffers we all suffer together, recognizing the value and dignity of every human being be they near or far.

╰ exam questions/practice questions

╰ rewriting notes

╰ grab a textbook and highlighter (only important stuff!!)

╰ bullet pointing notes (use funky arrows or pretty heart bullets)

╰ reading over a page for 2 minutes then trying to recall as much as you can on paper - repeat (very effective)

╰ watching educational videos/documentaries

╰ flashcards (2 types) - you can either write a word with the definition on the back or do a full subtopic on a flashcard for portable revision

╰ plain reading - this is underrated but reading simple articles or just reading over your notes is considered studying too !!
