1
Today we're going through some science -based, tried and tested study tips that will help you study smarter, not harder.
2
My name's Izzy, I'm finally a medical student at Cambridge University, and I just finished all of my Cambridge Medical School exams and managed to pass them all.
3
So these tips are pretty much how I survived Cambridge Medical School.
4
There were some ups, there were some downs, but we made it.
5
These tips and tricks will be applicable whether you are something else like that.
6
So I study Mandarin in my free time and these tips are very applicable to that as well.
7
So without further ado, let's get into the video.
8
So firstly, why am I making this video?
9
Learning how to learn is actually so important
10
and it literally supercharges all of the rest of your time that you spend studying.
11
It essentially acts as a productivity multiplier on all of your life.
12
And yet we're never really taught how to learn while we're at school, but it's just sort of assumed that we'll kind of figure it out along the way.
13
spent years focusing on study techniques
14
that have actually been shown by psychological studies to be relatively inefficient for the ultimate goal of understanding and memorization,
15
such as taking notes, rereading or highlighting.
16
Especially rereading and highlighting, I absolutely loved doing those.
17
So I'll go through the nine study techniques that got me through Cambridge Medical School.
18
I'll firstly explain them and then I'll go through some practical tips and examples of ways Let's start with Eat the Frog.
19
This is actually the title of a productivity book by Brian Tracy
20
and is actually inspired by a quote from Mark Twain which goes like this: "If it's your job to eat a frog, it's best to do it first thing in the morning.
21
And if it's your job to eat two frogs, it's best to eat the biggest one first." And this is essentially telling us to focus on the difficult things first.
22
You don't need to waste time repeating the stuff that you already know or that you're already comfortable with.
23
to do in a day or things that you have to study in a day.
24
A question that I find really helpful to ask myself
25
when revising for an exam is
26
if the exam were tomorrow what topic would I feel the least happy about coming up in the exam?
27
This often is quite revealing and I'll often try to avoid doing topics
28
that I don't like or that I find unpleasant
29
but often those are the topics that I actually really need to do and are actually my weak points.
30
This also ties in with the Pareto principle
31
which is also known as the 80 -20 rule which essentially states that 80 % of our results
32
from approximately 20 % of the topics or the inputs that we actually make.
33
By focusing on the most important and core topics first
34
and moving out from there we can help to prioritize what we're actually studying and what we're focusing on.
35
This applies to both studying medicine and also studying languages.
36
So for medicine focusing on the core topics and eliminating the ones
37
that you find the most difficult first and then moving outwards from there.
38
And then for language learning focusing on the core very commonly used words and focusing on the difficult ones you find there,
39
and then gradually broadening that circle and including more and more vocabulary, more and more topics.
40
So this combination of eating the frog and doing the difficult things and also focusing on the important core topics,
41
really helps us to make good decisions when it comes to prioritizing what we're going to be studying on a given day.
42
The second study technique that has saved me in medical school is the Pomodoro technique, which you may have heard of before, which involves 25 minutes of work time and intensive study,
43
followed by five minutes of a break, and this is repeated.
44
really helpful because as per Parkinson's law where work expands to fill the time allocated to its completion,
45
studying also does the same and by time boxing our studying to fixed windows of intense studying followed by a break, this means that we can set ourselves like a mini study goal for
46
that duration of time and work in these short bursts.
47
An article by MIT recommends working in hour -long blocks as
48
the most effective with 50 minutes of study time followed by a 10 minutes
49
I would say that in my personal experience and the experience of many other colleagues at Cambridge,
50
the optimal intervals will vary a lot between people and also actually between topics as well.
51
So for me, if it's a topic that I really enjoy or something that I find quite fun, I often can study for a longer duration before needing a break,
52
so I can set it to maybe the 50 minutes followed by a 10 minute break.
53
But if it's something that I find really quite unpleasant to study
54
or I keep avoiding or I find it very mentally taxing, then setting a shorter duration doing a short burst of intense work often works better for me.
55
Play around with it, try out different time intervals and see if this works for you.
56
The next tip is to aim for understanding first and then memorization.
57
So often throughout medical school and even when learning Mandarin, you could either take two routes.
58
You could either rote memorize everything
59
and just have all these random facts kind of floating around in your head
60
or you can try to go down an understanding route where
61
gaps in that understanding where there's maybe just facts
62
that you have to know and you can't actually go from a first principles place of understanding.
63
In a way there are only two real components to good learning or good knowledge which is understanding plus memorization.
64
The understanding is there to give us a mental model for how things generally work in
65
that system or in that topic that we're learning about and then the memorization almost adds just the extra bits
66
just derive things from first principles.
67
So the next tip links into that quite well
68
because it helps to promote a clear and concise understanding of any topic that you're trying to learn.
69
And it's a technique known as the Feynman technique, which is named after Richard Feynman, a physicist who famously used this technique a lot throughout his career and teaching.
70
It essentially means teaching the topic or concept to somebody in a simple and clear way.
71
So that someone with very little basis in that subject matter, would be able to understand your explanation to them.
72
And by being able to teach it to somebody else, that demonstrates that you really need to have a solid understanding of the topic itself.
73
There are two ways that you can put this into practice.
74
Firstly, if you're on your own and you don't have anyone else with you, you can just try explaining out loud as if there were another person there.
75
Or like maybe you could explain to any fluffy toys that you have on your bed or something like that.
76
Just to actually go through the process of trying to explain it and trying to teach it.
77
Secondly, if you do have friends who are studying a similar topic to you, or even just family members or other friends who aren't doing the topic,
78
you could try explaining to them and see how it goes.
79
The next tip is to focus on practice testing, which is a form of active recall.
80
It's a common misconception among students
81
that the best way to learn is by reading through notes or textbooks and essentially trying to put information into our brains.
82
by Dunlosky et al showed that we actually learn best
83
when we try to take information out of our brains by actively recalling it.
84
When we're tested on a fact or a topic, neurochemicals that stimulate memory formation and attention are released in our brain and help us to really solidify those memories.
85
So whether we get it right or wrong, it doesn't really matter because as long as you check the answer afterwards and find out what the correct answer actually was,
86
your brain is so much more and file it away as a memory for future use.
87
It's essentially a way of saying to your brain, "Hey, this information is actually useful.
88
"Look, we're trying to remember it.
89
"Why don't you remember it for next time?" And
90
that helps our brains soak up all of this new content much more quickly.
91
Try turning your notes or textbooks into flashcards or taking mock tests.
92
For example, for all of my clinical medical exams, I found
93
that one of the most effective ways for me to study
94
was to actually do practice questions on a website called Past Medicine, question bank, which would actively test me on my knowledge and also my understanding.
95
I would get instant feedback as to whether I was right or wrong, and then also have access to a page with more information
96
so I could fill in any gaps in my knowledge or understanding afterwards.
97
This made it almost feel like a game, and I would almost try to reframe it as a game so I could stay engaged with doing it.
98
This isn't sponsored by the way, that's just how I revise for my medical school exams.
99
The next tip synergises really well with the last tip about practice testing and active is space repetition, essentially how you can beat the forgetting curve.
100
In a number of studies about human memory retention, researchers came up with a graph visualizing how the brain retains memory over time, also known as the forgetting curve,
101
which looks a bit like this.
102
So essentially after we initially learn something, we will gradually start to forget it over time, unless we revise that piece of knowledge or that fact,
103
and then we reset the forgetting curve.
104
Then after resetting this
105
before we forget it
106
and the curve is a little bit less steep as the information starts to enter our long -term memory instead.
107
Spaced repetition is essentially how you can beat the forgetting curve
108
and to put this into practice my favorite way to do this especially for language learning is to use Anki
109
which is a spaced repetition software which combines both active recall and spaced repetition.
110
I love this for learning Mandarin vocabulary but it also works for studying anything else that you need to memorize things for.
111
Essentially Anki is a an app which does flashcards on either your computer or your phone,
112
and the software will automatically calculate when you should space your repetition of it.
113
You can also do spaced repetition and active recall with manual flashcards, and I'll link some resources down below explaining how you can do this, but I don't personally do this myself.
114
I would really highly recommend Anki as it automates everything for you, and all you need to do is make the cards and then everything just happens, and you do your reviews every day,
115
and then you suddenly remember new facts.
116
Tip number seven is leveraging some memorization techniques to help remember things that are kind of tricky.
117
So my favorite ones for these are mnemonics.
118
So this is really helpful for medical school
119
because often there's long lists of causes for a certain condition
120
or other things like that where we don't want to forget any one item off it.
121
So a mnemonic helps to make sure that we can remember that.
122
Another tip is doing mind maps.
123
So sometimes I would almost use mind maps as try to remember all the things on it,
124
and then check with the list of all the points that I actually should have got.
125
And by making it in a mind map format, it helps our brains to visually remember where all the bits of the topic are and where all the different facts are.
126
Another memorization technique I found super helpful for learning languages, in particular Mandarin, is to create a personal connection to certain words or facts.
127
Find another way that you can link it in For example, on some of my Mandarin learning Anki flashcards,
128
I'll include a photo or maybe something
129
that reminds me of a story that's related to that piece of vocab or that sentence.
130
And that will just help to get my brain in gear and paying attention to be like, oh, this is actually important information or, oh, this is actually interesting.
131
And again, that stimulates our brain to release those neurochemicals that help to support fact retention.
132
Tip number eight is to make a study schedule, including rest, and also to track your progress.
133
essentially to zoom out on all of your revision or your studying
134
and there's a few layers to this firstly creating a routine
135
for your studying helps your brain feel ready to learn at
136
your usual allocated time this also helps to make sure
137
that we don't end up studying late into the night
138
or doing all -nighters as actually there are some studies
139
that show that doing an all -nighter can actually really impair your memory retention
140
and even your rational thinking for the next few days
141
pressure to study and keep on top of things
142
which I think is a healthy thing in moderation
143
because in my personal experience with no pressure at all I can often feel very relaxed
144
and very happy to procrastinate for many weeks so by creating a schedule
145
and realizing oh actually there's not that much time I should probably get going
146
that just helps to make sure that actually some things are happening and some things are being learned.
147
The final layer is that by tracking your progress to master a topic or to understand something,
148
and B, also gives you an idea of what you really need to focus on next for your studying.
149
So it gives you information essentially about you as a learner and also about what you need to do next.
150
I like to create a sort of daily routine
151
when I'm studying intensively where I try to wake up
152
and go to sleep at a similar time and eat meals around a similar time.
153
So I did this especially when I was preparing intensively for lots of the heavy knowledge -based exams at Cambridge.
154
calendar so often I would actually make a revision timetable calendar in Google calendar in like a different color
155
and pop that into my Google calendar to schedule all my time.
156
I can show you in detail how I do this
157
if you're interested and I can make a video about my schedule if that's interesting to you guys.
158
The final tip, tip number nine, is to keep reassessing how everything's going.
159
This means essentially doing an audit on a couple of things.
160
So firstly on your academics, how your studying is going, whether you feel like you're actually to learn using the techniques you're applying.
161
Secondly, just checking in in terms of your well -being.
162
This is so important when studying and scheduling in breaks
163
and scheduling in time for self -care
164
and looking after yourself is literally the foundation of any studying
165
that you want to do because if you're not taking care of your health and your well -being, you're not sleeping right, you're not eating right or exercising,
166
then how on earth are you supposed to be effective at anything else that you want to do?
167
So ensure that you're taking care of yourself, make sure that all right so if i had checked in with myself
168
and thought of how i could help support my mental
169
and physical well -being better i may have been able to actually enjoy life a little bit more
170
and enjoyed the journey rather than just struggling through
171
and just about surviving and managing to do my exams after all i've realized
172
that it's more important to enjoy the journey than to focus
173
purely on the destination to quote einstein insanity is doing the same things over and over to achieve different results.
174
So if you find something's not working either in terms of your actual studying
175
or in terms of your well -being then adjust something, keep trying different things and keep reassessing.
176
I like to reassess how things are going maybe every week
177
or so but obviously this interval can be adjusted depending on how long you're studying for.
178
For learning Mandarin for example every single week I'd write a slightly longer journal entry about how my studying was
179
things or adjust things because studying and life generally is a dynamic thing
180
and we need to respond to the needs of the moment
181
and to the new information that we're getting about how things are going.
182
So those are my top nine tips for studying smarter not harder.
183
I hope this video was entertaining or useful or helpful in some kind of way.
184
If you enjoyed this video you might like this one over
185
here where I put some of these techniques into practice and show you how I do and find what works for you,
186
find what feels good for you.
187
Thank you so much for watching, take care of yourself, and I will see you in the next video.
