HOW TO KICKSTART THE NEW ACADEMIC YEAR
Most of you have either already started the new session or would be starting after the summer break and if you’re anything like me you’d probably be very lazy the initial few months *smh*
So if you would rather stay up till 2 and watch Brooklyn99 and procrastinate assignments this posts for you ( Gina is my spirit animal oof)
HOW TO BE PRODUCTIVE AND GET THE MOST OUT OF THE INITIAL MONTHS
1. Stay on top of your assignments
From day one, do whatever work is given on that day itself. It’s better to do 10 questions everyday rather than 70 on the weekend.
2. Have a fixed sleep schedule
Coming back to regular class timings and waking up early can be very difficult after the break so it’s better to start acclamating atleast a week before school starts. You don’t want to be nodding off in classes believe me.
3. Study topic wise rather than chapter wise
This is something that you can do in the starting of the year only because once the classes gain momentum you would often see yourself waiting for the chapter to get over to actually get to revision. You don’t wanna be revising without the vising haha.
So how would you actually do this?
Here’s an example: if you have 3 books for a subject of level of difficulty 1,2 and 3 you should start by completing the theory of the topic from a textbook and then solving questions from book of level 1 then 2 and then moving onto 3. Proceeding like this would help you to apply the theories in questions of varying difficulties and you’re more likely to remember the concepts. Thus would also save time as you wouldn’t have to go back and forth again to revisit the initial concepts taught.
4. Participate in extra curriculars
The work load from classes is less, missing a few won’t affect you much, I guess you get the point.
5. Make sure you don’t burnout
If you study 3 important subjects try to focus on 2 initially and take things a little slow for the third one. This would reduce pressure that you’re feeling right now and before the exam, you can focus more on the third subject as you would already be thorough with the other two. You can tweak this according to the number of subjects you’ve opted for.
I guess that’s all. Also, remember to have a few binge watching nights because a little Brooklyn99 never hurt nobody hehe.
