Do you have a method of studying and how do you go about it?
Yes, I think I do. I I like to write in-class notes and then rewrite them to better grasp the information floating around in my head. The more immediate this is, the better for the retention of information. When it comes to subjects that are heavy laden with terminology, I make index cards before I read and make notes for the chapter. Then, I make chapter notes and there is a summary of major points at the end of the chapter, I rewrite those. Itās a lot of writing but it definitely helps with recalling information during exams and class sessions.
What motivates you to study everyday?
All of you, actually! I thank each and every one of you for motivating me. This blog has helped a lot and so has Tumblr ā„ Also the Forest app, which piles up coins to upgrade your trees that you plant, that plants trees or bushes depending on the amount of time you program for studying.
Do you normally get distracted and what do you do to stay focused?
I do get distracted pretty easily. However, I have this app called Forest on my phone that locks the whole thing which definitely helps me concentrate. My computer is too slow sometimes to do anything other than be on Google Drive for writing my papers or opening Word. I also use the Pomodoro system for studying, so breaks are a must in my studying which helps me stay focused.
Hope this helps :) and sorry for the delay :/
