Hello there friends and learners! Welcome to another blog of mine! After our second stop, we will travel all the way back to my fleeting classroom, a.k.a our house to check on how I did in preparation for our finals week. Now that it's over, I would gladly share to all of you my tips and techniques that are applicable for you to use in the future, or the current. I hope you guys gain something new from this blog. Thank you so much and happy reading!

1. USE THE 123 METHOD
This might be a new technique for some but actually, it has been used by many since the old days. I learned this technique from one of my friends just recently and all I can say is: it works. You see, there is a logical explanation for this. If you are someone who easily procrastinates and gets distracted or lazy frequently, all you have to do is count 1 to 3 in your head, then proceed to go on with your goal. I know you must be wondering how on earth this works but technically, our minds immediately responds to an action that we intend to do or plan. In simpler words, counting down can give us the sudden urge to do something, especially when we say an expression like "Go!" at the end. It suddenly gives our bodies a boost of energy to do certain activities, even when we prefer not to. There might be some psychological explanation for this, but you should definitely try this out, whether it's something related to school, work, chores, or many other things.
2. OPEN GIZMO WEBSITE
I am not trying to boost or advertise any platform but I just want to share my experiences with you throughout my time using this site. I had just recently stumbled across an ad that an academic influencer shared on an app and I decided to give it a shot. At first, I was giving it the benefit of doubt since most of these sites are just duds but I turned out to be completely wrong. The site helps me question my existing knowledge about a certain topic and summarizes context into tiny bits and pieces so I can understand them better. It enables me to become more independent on worksheets and remember other details much better than before.
3. SET UP A STUDY SCHEDULE
Narrowing down your lessons enables you to grasp more information effectively without any hassle. For me, I opt to start off with easier subjects so that way, my studying won't get cut off each proceeding hour I have left. Since I have 10 subjects, I usually divide them into two; five subjects for the first day, and on the second day. Day two would be nearer to the exam day and I actually plan it to happen that way because the information I have acquired or study will be much more fresher and easier to comprehend, compared to the other subjects from day one which don't require much reading to do since the lessons are also quite understandable. I recommend using the Pomodoro Technique. You need to set a timer for 25 minutes and during that time, you need to study fully and straight without any distractions and such. After 25 minutes, set another timer of 5 minutes for your break and continue with the loop until finished. This way, you'd effectively balance out your time and not complain on the long duration of studying or the back aches/headaches you've gotten from those long hours o0f studying.
4. REFRAIN FROM MAKING REVIEWERS (REWRITING LESSONS ALL OVER AGAIN)
I know most people won't agree with me on this one but it's just my personal perspective. I understand that each one of us also have our own study habits and I respect that. But honestly, I think that writing reviewers all over again is a waste of time. Why write everything in your notes or modules in a piece of paper when you can just read everything and highlight the important details at once? Not only does this eat up the remaining time that you have, but it'll also make you more tired and drained than you already are. Instead, just straight up read it from your learning materials and gather them all during you studying sessions.
These are just a few of my tips and techniques. I have so much more to share but I only included the important parts. Moreover, I am really proud for surviving hell week. I definitely am grateful for everything that has happened this school year despite all the pressure and sadness I've felt. I was still able to conquer it all. If you're also having a hard time in school, get up and work on it. Don't give up just yet. Everything will be worth it in the end. I believe in you, warrior! :)
This are actually useful techniques in preparing for upcoming exams! My classmates also use websites that create flashcards. It helps a lot. Thank you for sharing this.♥️♥️
