So here is just a random collection of tips, in no particular order, on how to survive a full day of studying (surviving? not sure if i’m still alive…) remeber these tips work for me but everybody is different. so try some of these but don’t feel pressured to apply all of them onto your routine. you know what’s best for you. so here we go:
1. write yourself a to-do list. otherwise you will loose the overview and have no idea what you actually have to study.
2. start with the topics you are the worst at. do not start with the first slide of the power point lecture exept the fact that you literally have no idea what you are doing here (and that’s not ideal, of course).
3. remeber that you can always restart your day. we all have bad days (literally every second day is a bad day for me, *help*) but that doesn’t mean you can’t start new. when i plan my day i just plan the mornings (so the time before lunch) bc i never know, how i will feel. and after my big lunch break i write a list for the second part of the day. that way i make sure that at least one part of the day is productive (does this even make sense?)
4. eat enough! normally i’m the person who always eats and never says no to chocolate or food in general but sometimes even i am forgetting that i’m hungry. when you are too focused on your studies this easily could happen so just make sure you always have enough food at home. bc when you stop studying at 10 pm and are incredibly hungry you will need food. and not having food after a long day of studying sucks. believe me.
5. reward yourself. it’s sometimes rlly difficult to motivate yourself to study (especially if you have to memorize a huge bunch of unimportant stuff like me atm). without my chill-time at the end of the day i wouldn’t be able to study for weeks (ok, I just studied for one week but it felt so long!).
6. change spots. i get crazy after a few hrs in my dorm room. so i either go outside and sit by the river or go to the library or get on the nerves of one of my friends.
7. friends. classmates. whatever. try out study groups. sometimes it can be rlly useful. like study for yourself a couple of hrs than change your study spot and meet some ppl (yes social interaction is important as well, even if you hate people). it can be really motivating to ask each other questions or simply sit next to each other. i’m actually doing this a lot with @andidjkasv atm. and it’s so useful bc whenever i’m feeling unmotivated or down she’s sitting next to me, giving me the dead-into-eye look and than i’m so scared i go back to my studies.
8. know when to stop and take a break. believe me or not but breaks are as important as studying (in the right balance of course, not like me atm, i’m writing this just to escape chemistry *help*). i can barely concentrate after 1.5 to 2 hrs so taking breaks can help you a lot. and remember to stop after you studied for like 8 hrs. for me that’s the maximum that’s possible. after that i am just too tired to do a single thing (exept breathing maybe).
9. do the best that’s possible and accept what’s impossible for you. maybe i’m stupid (yes ok, i am stupid, i know) but sometimes acceptance is the only thing that is left for you (why am i so melodramatic? finals suck). study as much as possible but it is ok to say enough is enough. go into the exams with the knowldege that you did everything that was possible for you. there will always be someone more intelligent than you or the day you wrote the exam simply was one of these shitty days when nothing works out. give your best and than forget it (so not the stuff you studied but all your insecurities). you can’t change it anymore and beating yourself up on it doesn’t help anyone.
10. try to enjoy it. just a little bit. i don’t know about you but i like the stuff i’m studying (in general). i made the decision to study chemistry and that was just bc i enjoyed it during highschool. so it is easier to motivate myself to actually do sth for chimstry because it was my own decision. and some of the things i’m learning are actually pretty cool. every once in a while remind yourself that studying can be wonderful and there is nothing more rewarding than finally grasping a complicated concept.
not sure but i think that was everything. ok, it was more of a rant but who cares. take care of you and good luck with your studies!!! <3
