Studying helps.
Studying actually helps (WTF??)
So to most people this may seem like a weird thing to hear but uhh...
I have never studied properly. AT ALL. All my "studying" consists of just shoving everything into my head a day before the exam. And luckily I have a weird brain. So it has been working out for me for as far as I know.
I somehow usually manage to get decent grades regardless of the fact that I don't study for the entire year.
But that all fucking changed the moment I got into med school.
Basically you need to do an assignment or a test every 2-3 days. And that was my bane. Studying for that is kinda hell for me mentally because I am usually used to relaxing the whole year around and then just studying everything in one big swoop . But this obviously isn't possible for me in my current situation. And as a result I was failing. HORRIBLY .
Then I tried something REVOLUTIONARY called studying stuff on time. As in actually spending an hour or half on actually studying for the stuff next day and not letting things pile up to the point of failure.
AND IT FEELS EFFIN AMAZING.
It just feels nice to have my work not pile up on me. It's so effin peaceful.
