I finally figured out how to be that guy in class while studying less you know the one who gets top grades while you're busting your ass studying yeah that used to drive me nuts how does some people barely touch the books and still get straight A's while you're grinding just to get a be that question used to keep hammering in my head and I could never figure it out until now I discovered that the problem isn't a bad memory it's that you're wasting your time like an idiot and not making the most of it in
this video I'm going to reveal the seven simple things these people do that most others completely ignore or never even think of and the best part no more spending endless hours studying at home you'll walk into class confident knowing you're already ahead so let's get started seven just sleep right first off if you want to study less and still do well you can't be going to class half asleep you idiot it's simple just sleep like a normal person yeah I know sounds like something your grandma would say but the amount of sleep you get directly
affects how well you can learn and uh pay attention and no I'm not talking about a quick nap on your desk genius I mean a full night sleep where you wake up without your alarm blasting in your ear if you sleep badly your brain goes into autopilot mode like you're physically in class but mentally in Another Universe and guess what any chance of learning something flies out the window faster than your Monday gym plans and let let's be real life's full of temptations that mess with your sleep the latest season of that show you just
have to finish or those random Youtube videos that somehow got you learning about the history of french fries because yeah that's totally going to be on your geography test but fixing this is easy set a consistent bedtime and wakeup time every single day yep even on weekends no matter how much it sucks studies from the national sleep foundation and Harvard Medical School show that a solid sleep sleep routine not only boosts your brain power but also keeps you sharp during the day like you're finally running on full power keeping this cycle in check regulates your
circadian rhythm that internal clock you probably didn't even know you had making you more focused and ready to soak up info in class like a sponge six pay attention forget the idea that the only way to learn is by locking yourself in your room surrounded by books like some kind of Monk the real secet to saving hours of study is simple actually pay attention in class you idiot and if you don't get something raise your hand and ask yeah just ask don't sit there looking clueless it might feel like you're being annoying but asking the
teacher to explain it again will save you from hours of pointless revision later here's the kicker not everything the teacher says is important you know that student who barely studies and still does well they know exactly what's worth paying attention to and what can be ignored like when the teacher starts rambling about how they discovered their passion for chemistry during a backpacking trip through Europe seriously do you think that's going to be on the test focus on the key points and ditch the stories do this and you'll practically eliminate the need to stay up all
night like a desperate Maniac trying to understand it all later five draw your notes who said taking notes is just writing stuff down if you still think that you're wasting time like an idiot a smarter way to lock in what you're learning without spending hours is to draw your notes don't worry you don't need to be the next Picasso even those stick figures you Ed to draw in kindergarten will do the trick the key is creating simple visuals to help link Concepts your brain is basically obsessed with images even crappy ones and you'll remember way
more than if you're just scribbling words in your notebook like a shopping list plus this method saves you from being a Mindless zombie that just copies whatever the teacher says without thinking when you draw your Force to really get the concept because you have to break it down and turn it into something visual this way your brain actually kicks into gear activating different areas and building stronger connection four make every minute count studying doesn't need to be a torturous sit at your desk for hours type of deal you idiot you can actually make it way
easier by using your time wisely while you're cleaning the house walking or even working out just slap on a podcast Audi book or an audio lesson boom what used to be wasted time now turns into a chance to absorb information suddenly you're making every minute count when you're stuck in traffic or in a long line use that time to mentally review what you've already studied a few minutes replaying a tricky concept or recalling key ideas in your head make a huge difference maximize your time and keep your brain working you'll actually retain stuff without spending
endless hours cramming like a fool three post it in strategic spots grab those difficult ult Concepts yeah the ones you probably don't understand because you spent half the class on your phone and write them on Post-its now stick those bad boys around the house in strategic spots the fridge the bathroom mirror or even the door you walk through 20 times a day without thinking about anything useful every time you pass by take a quick glance no big deal before you know it you'll be passively studying multiple times a day without even cracking open that book
which let's be real is probably collecting dust on your shelf right and if you're thinking this is kind of ridiculous well what's really ridiculous is not even trying and not subscribing to the channel you idiot two use pneumonics using pneumonics is like cheating in school but without anyone noticing seriously coming up with acronyms songs or Rhymes to remember all that boring complicated stuff is one of the smartest ways to save yourself some effort I know you probably think this is kid stuff but guess what this kid stuff is what's going to save you during exams
while you're stuck trying to memorize everything like an idiot your brain loves patterns and when you turn something complicated into something easy to remember like a song or a funny phrase it sticks in a way you won't be able to forget and if you want to create those pneumonics easily you can use chat GPT with the right prompt it'll cut your time and effort in half to give you a hand I've put together over 250 prompts that'll help you study faster than ever check out the link at the pinned comment and stop wasting time one
brain dump method it's super simple grab a piece of paper and dump everything you remember about the topic yep everything like you're clearing out all the mental junk this helps you pull up information later because it trains your brain to remember when needed something you're clearly not doing right now you idiot now here's a massive difference between just mindlessly copying stuff down like a robot and actually processing what you're writing if you're just throwing words onto paper you're basically making a useless grocery list that even your brain won't bother with later but if you take
a second to actually think about what you're dumping organize it just a little and connect the dots in your head you're helping your brain make stronger Association this is where the magic happens you start turning that chaotic mess into something your brain can easily retrieve later think of it like a mental map where every piece of info gets its own spot and your brain knows exactly where to find it on top of that the brain dump method can really help ease anxiety when you're feeling overwhelmed writing everything down clears your mind and gives you a
clearer picture of what you need to focus on if you like the video make sure to send it to that friend who's just as desperate for these tips as you are and leave a comment if you've got some secret trick to Ace exams without sweating it I highly doubt you do but you never know and I hope to see you in the next video if you don't show up up well you're dumber than I thought
