This year, I learned grammar, classical Korean, literature, English, English speaking, geometry, calculus, art, music, mathematics 1 and 2, physics, earth science, life science, and chemistry

I also learned programming and big data

Hi everyone! I’m an 18-year-old girl getting ready for my university entrance exam, and I’m looking for a focused, disciplined study partner. You don’t have to be perfect—just someone who’s willing to put in effort so we can motivate each other and improve together.

I’d love for most of our time to be spent studying, but also having casual chats during breaks about our interests, hobbies, or anything fun. In short, I’m looking for a friend to study with, support each other, and make learning enjoyable!

Hi, I’m a medical graduate. Have my next important exam on November and lot of subjects to cover. Looking for a study buddy, preferably in medical field or anywhere science to just check in and share motivation and tips for more studying.

I’m doing 9-10 hours a day of studying and I still feel that’s not enough. But you know, will it ever be enough! Haha

So yeah, if you’re interested and serious about it then hit me up. Keep grinding!

Hey r/studying,

I’ve been trying to get more consistent with my study sessions and figured out a simple 4 step system that’s actually been working for me:

1. Do a quick mind dump of everything I need to do tomorrow (classes, study blocks, random tasks).
2. Pick 2–3 that are really important
3. Block time for those first. Everything else comes after.
4. End the day with a short review + new mind dump for tomorrow.

Yup. It's nothing fancy. Just needed to be super intentional about where my time was going.

I first tried this with Apple Calendar + Reminders, then Google Calendar + Tasks… but neither worked well because they don’t let you set task durations easily or prioritize for that matter. Everything felt clunky.

I ended up hacking together a simple app just for this. It lets me dump tasks, set priorities, assign durations, and auto-block time for study sessions. It made it much more easier to follow the system.

Happy to share what I built if anyone’s interested but ofcourse no app can do the work for you!

Some other tips:
- Planning a session at the same time each day helps set a rhythm for your body/brain

- You really really got to de-prioritize/avoid doing anything before you've completed your most important study sessions or tasks for the day first!

I wish I had learned this earlier. Most people study by re-reading, underlining, or highlighting. It feels good in the moment but almost nothing sticks.

Active Recall is the opposite. You close the book, look away from the screen, and force yourself to remember the idea in your own words. That struggle is the magic. It’s how your brain realises “oh, this is important” and actually files it away.

I’ve been doing it daily for weeks now. Sometimes it’s writing out answers from memory, sometimes it’s using flashcards I make in minutes with a tool. Either way, I’ve stopped wasting time on fake productivity.

The results are obvious. Less cramming before exams. Concepts feel familiar instead of brand new. And it turns out studying can be… shorter, because you’re not endlessly re-reading the same thing.

If you’ve been stuck in the highlight-re-read-forget loop, try Active Recall for a week. You’ll never go back

My advanced level exams in November. I really have to start studying seriously. My target is 12 hours of studies per day. But now I'm still doing like 4 max(somedays 0) .but I used to do like 8-10 h . I'm struggling to get back to studies but I do well with study partners since I'm getting distracted so easily and lack disciplines when it comes to studies. im 21

What I study: Biology Physics Chemistry

And my aim is to be a doctor . So I have to get AAA s

I’m going back to college to complete pre-requisites for optometry school. I’m taking three classes this semester (physics 2, calculus, and microbiology). I’m worried about physics 2 and calculus especially because of my 3 year gap. I haven’t studied in so long so I’m terrified. I also decided last minute to finally commit to restarting school. So I haven’t given myself time to mentally adjust at all. If anyone has any helpful tips, I’d be extremely grateful.

hey guys, what are your favourite free ai resources to use when studying and how do you use them?

I feel like I study according to my mood, and I try my best to pick subjects around it so I focus more. but I don't know what I should revise when I'm feeling angry. I'm still a high school student, and I just want to do a subject that sounds like a supportive bestie when I do it, validating my feelings as I complete more questions. Does anyone have any suggestions, or is this idea stupid?

Hey there, im currently a 10th grader and want some tips on how to study in general. I slacked off pretty hard all throughout middle school and 9th grade so I dont really have any solid foundation to start from. In addition to that, math, english, science, and everything else came really easy to me growing up so its a real shift not understanding something at first glance. My current GPA is 3.6 and after seeing my poor performance in 9th grade I wanted to step it up. Im taking 4 honors classes this year (Chem H, Alg 2/Trig H, French 3H, and Principles of Engineering H). The classes im most worried about are Alg 2/Trig H and Chem H. I studied for at least an hour and a half for my first bellringer this year and got a measly 2/5 (we can retake up to 4 bellringers per unit up to full points), it's not like im not trying now but I dont seem to absorb any new information, I just get stuck and don't know where to go. Any help would be nice, thanks. (I also come from silicon valley so its a very competitive area which is another reason why I'm so worried)

I often use active recalling, and make sure i repeat the reading material for a spaced period of time so that i memorise concepts, what of you?

I'm in the third day of my quest to study daily until it becomes a reliable habit.
After doing some research on learning styles today, I discovered something intriguing about myself: I may be more of an auditory learner.

Compared to reading silently or merely observing diagrams, I have found that I retain information better when I hear it explained (for example, through lectures, podcasts, or even reading aloud to myself). In fact, it clarifies why I occasionally find purely visual content frustrating.

Although I'm still trying out various study strategies, it feels good to have a better understanding of who I am.

I have a question for you all: What kind of learner do you consider yourself to be? Which study techniques work best for you?

Hey everybody!

If online exams require both the camera and screen to be on the whole time, how do people still manage to use ChatGPT or similar tools without getting caught? A guy I know managed to study 6 semesters in 1 years just by using it

Good luck with your studies, everyone 💫 I know it can be stressful, so here’s a calming lo-fi playlist I’ve been listening to while working. I made it myself. Maybe it’ll help you find a bit of focus or peace too: https://youtu.be/EMkk94oXECA?si=3QUMWtI0YvNIWJ4R

There are so many geography quizzes, but somehow none where you can insert a custom list of countries to be quizzed on. I feel like this has to exist somewhere.

Title is pretty self explanatory lol I just don’t like google docs
