Top study tips

  • Always make notes in your own words – it’s easily the best way to learn
  • Use spaced learning: if you learn something on a Monday, go over it again the next day, then three days later, then a week later
  • Interleaving – splitting and mixing topics – helps your brain. If you have a three-hour period of time, use it for several different topics, not one subject. Switch from one task to another every 30 to 45 minutes.
