1
I'm not ashamed to admit that it's taken me a long time to figure out the best way to study for me.
2
And I think this is the case for a lot of us.
3
We spend most of our academic career steadily optimizing our study routine to what eventually works for us best.
4
I just wish that I'd known about these things that would actually help me sooner.
5
Building strong habits is one of the ways that we can be more productive in our lives.
6
The trouble is that it's really hard to form habits
7
and actually stick to them knowing how to do this is key
8
but even more so is knowing which habits you want to try
9
and form in the first place in the past i've stuck to studying habits for lots of reasons
10
and a lot of them weren't
11
because they were the best habits to stick to we've all done
12
this you know sometimes we follow how our friends are studying even
13
if it's not ideal for us or we might even do things like revising topics
14
that we already know because it makes us feel good there's all kinds of habits
15
that we do for the wrong reasons it can take a lot of time to figure out
16
which habits you want to stick to when it comes to studying
17
so to save you some of that time here are my top seven habits
18
that really changed my studying life you might not know this
19
but medical schools are notorious for examining students in completely different ways one university might want
20
you to learn the anatomy of the whole body in your first year
21
but in less detail than another university
22
which might want you to learn every aspect of the upper
23
body in your first year some universities like to test students in completely different ways than others
24
we've got multiple choice questions short answers full -on essays
25
and everything in between some are more clinically applied
26
and some are more theory -based the list goes on all of this is important to remember
27
because ideally you want to tailor your own studying strategy to the specific exam questions
28
and content that are being taught at your university on the course
29
that you're on this of course helps us score as best
30
as we can now one way to do this is to
31
be guided by past paper questions instead of learning all of the material from the lectures the tutorials etc
32
and then using past paper questions in the last couple of
33
weeks to figure out what your exam is going to look
34
like it's a good habit to get into to check what
35
your past paper questions look like early on in your studying
36
looking at them will not only show you what the questions are going to be like
37
but more importantly it shows you the patterns of the types of content
38
and questions that are going to be asked this means
39
that you can start to tailor your revision by spending more time on those high yield topics
40
that your professors and your university love to ask you on
41
if you can get to the point where you have a clear understanding of things your school want
42
you to know
43
and how they're going to test you from past paper exams
44
then you're setting yourself up for success
45
it's always a good habit to get into early on whatever the course is
46
that you're doing studies done by employers show
47
that their employees are 50 more satisfied when they're working with others
48
and the quality of the work produced increases as well i really believe this is similar
49
when it comes to studying for exams it's really beneficial to work with other people it's
50
so tempting not to make the effort and to decide
51
that you're going to follow your own timetable and
52
that you don't want to be potentially distracted by others but honestly there's so much benefit from working with other students.
53
You're in a supportive environment
54
and this usually leads to feeling more empowered to do your own best work
55
and being with friends means
56
that you're fully engaged in the task that's in front of you
57
because you're all working on the same thing at the same time.
58
On top of
59
that the feeling of working towards a common goal with a group is a really good one
60
and it helps to push you and keep you going sometimes even when you might be finding studying very hard.
61
It also helps you get that start initially
62
which lot of people have difficulty with because
63
if you're all there forcing yourself to start you're gonna start
64
if you guys haven't heard i actually have a patreon
65
which includes access to a discord server
66
that has live study with me sessions happening every day
67
it's such a great community of other students working towards their goals encouraging each other
68
and just working all together it's honestly such a lovely community
69
that i'm in every single day talking to replying to comments reading on what you guys are up to
70
and doing if you're interested in joining my patreon
71
and joining the discord server please do check out the link in the description down below
72
i'm on there a ton and I'd love to chat with you guys
73
and get to know you a little bit more personally over there.
74
Another great thing about group studying is
75
that you can get real -time feedback from your friends
76
and they can share all the resources that they have
77
or have created with you so that you're really setting yourself up for success.
78
There's definitely something that we can learn from everyone around us
79
and we really see this when you work in a group with other people around you.
80
There have been so many things about exams
81
and the content being taught in medical school that I've only learned from speaking to other friends on the course.
82
Such a large part my success in my oski exams the practical exams here in medical school is simply
83
because i spent the time practicing with other people so
84
if this is something that you're traditionally against
85
and you haven't tried before please do give it a chance i honestly think
86
that it's very very helpful it's so important to use every resource you have available
87
when it comes to studying for exams one thing
88
that people often forget about is that older years at your university
89
or college have gone through exactly what it is
90
that you're doing right now just a year
91
or two before they can give you tips on how to get ready for these exams how to manage stress
92
and what techniques to use
93
and they can also provide you with resources their own notes
94
you know good studying resources past paper questions whatever you can also use the mistakes
95
that they've made as lessons going forward
96
and they'll probably have really good insights on what is going on at your school
97
and they're likely to understand what they test on what's the high yield material etc
98
if you ask me now as a final year medical student versus in my first year
99
you know what kind of things should I focus on
100
and how much effort should I put into studying for exams I have a really good idea now
101
which I didn't necessarily have back in first or second year
102
and a lot of university also have societies where older years
103
share their resources their notes their past paper exam questions
104
and they offer tutorials peer -to -peer teaching
105
and learning etc it's really useful to get involved in those things as well
106
it helps you feel like you're not going into your exams completely clueless
107
if you know how other students have found those exams and studied for them the years before.
108
It means that you're going in as prepared as you can.
109
One of the things
110
that I think people worry about with using a method like this is approaching the older years
111
and asking them for resources or about their experiences.
112
Honestly, nine times out of 10, anyone who you talk to or message is going to be more than willing to help.
113
They really want to help pass on their knowledge
114
and their information to the younger years that they can help you and make sure that you're as successful as possible.
115
I found that joining your medical school societies or asking about tutorials
116
and peer -to -peer learning from older year students is a good way to kind of get
117
that in to meet those people build relationships with them
118
and then ask them for the information or the help
119
that you need when the time comes joining whatsapp groups
120
or facebook groups and things like
121
that is also a really good way to get into those circles don't be afraid to reach out
122
and talk to the older years
123
i promise 90 of them just want to help for years i hand wrote my notes
124
and that's something that i completely stopped
125
when i got to my fourth year of medical school just
126
because it became unsustainable you can check out this video over here
127
which talks all about
128
that now handwriting notes can be a good way to stay active during your lectures
129
but all of the evidence on studying tells us
130
that note taking is one of the least efficient ways to retain
131
and recall information for exams in my clinical years i focused on active recall through answering questions
132
and looking up the information i didn't know whenever i couldn't answer those questions
133
if your current
134
or main method of studying is just taking notes it's okay i get you i did
135
that for a really long time and it can be a strategy
136
that works it just takes a lot of time and effort
137
and isn't the best way to be doing things according to the research
138
and my own personal anecdotal experience now changing your study method
139
that you've had for such a long period of time can be really really difficult the reason
140
that i didn't stop handwriting my notes sooner was
141
because i was worried that
142
if i did change then in my upcoming exams i wouldn't do as well it might take me a
143
while to get used to my new note -taking habit
144
and there was no guarantee
145
that it would work better than what i'm currently doing right now i didn't want to take
146
that risk and by doing that i wasn't really trusting the evidence
147
that showed that doing questions from day one or earlier on
148
and increasing the amount of active recall you were doing was the better
149
and more efficient way to study all i would say is just consider trying something new
150
and you can always see if it works better or it doesn't
151
and you can go back but there's a good chance that
152
if you're just handwriting notes there's probably a better
153
and more efficient way of studying
154
that will help you save time help you remember information better
155
and hopefully perform better on your exams as well one point
156
which really emphasized to me
157
you know the whole handwritten notes thing isn't the best way to study was thinking about how often
158
i revisit my handwritten notes to take a look at them
159
and the answer to that was absolutely never and the reason for
160
that was because they're just so difficult to find the specific information
161
that you want at a glance
162
when you need it quickly whereas with digital note taking
163
you know electronic notes you can just control f any word you want in your huge expanse of notes
164
and documents that you have and so that made it a lot easier
165
and more common and frequent for me to go back to old notes
166
that i'd written making them actually useful instead of just a one -time thing
167
that i wrote to study for an exam
168
and then forgot about it's worth exploring other options before
169
you just stick to the root of going down endlessly writing handwritten notes i mentioned in the previous point
170
that i was handwriting my notes for the longest time
171
because i was worried to change my study method even though i knew
172
it probably wasn't working as efficiently as it should be i think
173
it would have been a good idea to review my studying methods much sooner and more often than I did.
174
I think that it's
175
so worth taking the time out to really think about whether
176
your current study methods are actually working for you in the best way,
177
or if you're just continuing on with them because they've worked in the past and you're worried about changing them going forward.
178
For the longest time, I was just on autopilot, attending lecture, writing handwritten notes, listening to the lecture, writing handwritten notes, and that was it.
179
And I didn't really think about whether this was a good strategy or not.
180
I knew a lot of other people were being directed by past paper questions, were using Anki flashcards or whatever, but I thought, you know,
181
this is the method that I have it works for me why change it
182
and it took me up to my fourth year of medical school to realize
183
that there was a much much better way of studying than
184
what I had been used to all of this time and
185
so I wish I had kind of taken a second to
186
just think about it a little bit earlier review my own techniques
187
and make a change I've tried using so many electronic
188
or digital tasks and to -do list apps
189
but I just never engage with them the same way
190
that I do when I just use a simple pen
191
and paper or post -it note I find it
192
so useful having these lists right here on my desk
193
that i can look at every day when i'm sitting typing
194
and doing things on my desk they're right here in front of me
195
and i can't miss them spending the five minutes
196
that it takes to think of my list
197
and reflect on what it is
198
that i need to do for the day is very very helpful on top of
199
that there's something really satisfying about just taking your pen
200
and crossing off something on your to -do list
201
or taking it off and seeing and knowing
202
that it's done i see this list on my desk throughout the day every day
203
and it keeps me accountable because i can see it
204
and look at it
205
and it reminds me of what I need to do you've got a digital to -do list
206
or app and you're not looking at it as often as you'd like
207
or it's not serving its purpose as much as you think it should then i highly recommend
208
that you just ditch it and go back to a traditional pen
209
and paper ultimately though whether you use a digital to -do list
210
or app or you use pen
211
and paper it doesn't matter it's all about what works for you
212
so check which one you find more helpful and
213
which one keeps you accountable and use that one it's
214
so easy to get lost in the thought
215
that you hate this particular module that you're having to study
216
and you can't really see the point of getting it done and you know what's beyond that.
217
I think it's important to remember that
218
that particular module is just a step towards the wider goal that you might have going forward.
219
I think being clear about your goals
220
and using them to motivate
221
you instead of you know being tunnel visioned on directly what's in front of you right
222
now can really help with motivation and studying over a long period of time.
223
If you can reflect on what it is you want
224
and why you're doing the thing
225
that you're doing in the first place then I think
226
you'll feel like you've gone a long way in terms of reframing the tasks
227
that you've set for yourself for that day or for
228
that week or whatever one thing
229
that you can do to help is to keep a visual reminder on your desk
230
or somewhere in your room that you can glance at a couple of times a day
231
or once a day to kind of remind you of the bigger purpose
232
that you're doing in the case of medical school you know this could be a stethoscope
233
or a photograph of before you got into medical school maybe the day you got accepted
234
and how happy you were that day
235
or something along those lines just something to help you remember how far you've come
236
and you know where you've always wanted to be i forget where this quote is from
237
but it's something along a reminder of you're currently living the life
238
that you used to dream about when you were younger you know
239
so thinking about it in
240
that perspective kind of helps put the day -to -day struggles into context for me
241
you know university was never about being the best in any particular topic like molecular biology
242
or anatomy or anything like that it's always been about becoming a competent doctor one
243
that patients can feel that they actually trust when they see
244
and feel comfortable and confident around and even wider than
245
that it's always been about helping people and contributing something positive
246
or good to the world as cheesy as that sounds
247
which is something
248
that I've always tried to do with this YouTube channel as well
249
you know contribute value to people's lives in some way shape
250
or form which have hopefully been able to accomplish
251
and back to the theme
252
that we were talking about before having this silver plaque here on my wall
253
that I can see pretty much every day
254
when I'm on my desk helps remind me of sort of the impact
255
that I've had the work that I've done and helps keep me motivated
256
and going with creating videos just like this
257
so yeah think about you know why you're doing the thing
258
that you're doing in the first place what got you started where you were
259
and how far you've come and it just helps motivate you
260
and keep things in perspective those are just some the habits
261
that i wish i had learned sooner and ones
262
that i've kind of accumulated over what has now been nine years of university i'm hoping
263
that sharing them will mean that you guys don't have to spend
264
so many years as i did without them and
265
that you can start incorporating them into your own life
266
and into your own studying as soon as possible
267
if you guys have any studying habits that have personally changed your life
268
or made a big
269
or significant impact on you then please do share them in the comments down below
270
and that is it from me i'll catch you in the next one peace
271
those are just some of the habits that i wish i'd known sooner
272
and that i've actually learned along the way of what has now been over nine years of you

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
