Most of us have heard from our teachers and parents that the more you will study, the more you will ace your grades. Everybody taught us to study hard and spent the maximum number of hours with books, but only a few get to understand that studying for long hours is not important, but studying effectively and with the best strategy is the key. Here are the methods that will differentiate between hard study and smart study and will teach you the strategy of how you can study effectively in less time.

Today’s advanced technology has made our learning and studying techniques digital. Most of us either study through apps or youtube lectures. Even those who study solely from books, get distracted just by a mere notification on their phone. So to avoid this,

• Switch off your phones before studying or put them in some other room.
• Always have a ballpen in your hand when you are studying to underline the keywords. This will help you to focus more
• Use the Pomodoro technique, which says to focus for 25 mins straight, then take a break of 5 mins. For most students, it works, but if you are one of those who just continue to extend this 5 min break, then this technique is not suggested.

Focus on important topics from last year’s question bank

The common mistake that students make is that they start from page 1 of their textbooks and read till the last page. This malpractice is continuously addressed to be avoided as it drains students’ concentration levels. At the beginning the focus level is high but it diminishes as we study for an hour or 2 straight. So if we will waste the time on least important topics, our important topics will get skipped and preparation won’t get as effective as it should be to ace the exams.

Set deadlines for your tasks

Being a procrastinator is a common habit. Even those who used to be well aligned with their time, become sluggish when the period for a particular task increases. So to prevent this, it’s crucial that you set your daily deadlines and goals and try to meet them according to your stamina. Every student has a different stamina. Some can study 5 topics per day but some can only study 2 topics per day. Both are fine as long as you are regular with your tasks and assignments.

Active recall principal

The most effective way to remember something is the active recall of that. And the thing that matters the most is that you always stay in optimum state and with a positive mindset, self doubt is the killer of your thoughts so try to stay motivated and positivity will be attracted to you. When we study a topic for the first time with full concentration, it gets stored in our short-term memory. To get it stored in long-term memory, it is crucial that we effectively recall it whenever we get the time.

Conclusion

Studying for long hours is not important, but start studying effectively with the best strategy is crucial. Once you master this idea, no one can stop you from achieving your goals.
