watch youtube videos about it
always take notes (since u have little time, take them on laptop it's more effective)
remember to write down the connections between people and topics when you notice them bc that will show a greater understanding

hmm yes connections between people and topics is a good tip. im literally so lost when i write notes bc i have a hard time distinguishing whats important and whats not lol so my notes usually end up useless

Tell yourself that you are going to study for 5 minutes. No distractions, just 5 minutes of studying. If you don't want to continue afterwards that's fine. You can take a break and after some time tell yourself again that you will study for five minutes only. Most people end up continuing their work after 5 minutes since they already started. You could give it a try.

Also you could take a test about what learning type your are? That way you can optimize your study time.

that's a good tip! do you have a good test, or should i just google and find one? @xBillieEyelashx

uhhh i don't have a good test sry sad

just google you should find one x3

good idea! i do have a study group which helps a lot, i just need to catch up with them. i think i will ask in a few weeks if they want to divide the exam questions between us so we dont have to do them all on our own
