Biggest How To Study Problem

Hi guys…

In case you hadn’t noticed, I’m trying my best to get you the best grades possible in your exams. Having firstly failed exams and then going on to become an ‘A’ student, I probably have a lot of good ideas to pass on to you about what works and what doesn’t.

So… I had this brainwave that it’d be a great idea for you to tell me your biggest ‘how to study’ problem so I could focus my attention on giving you the most help possible. You’ll also be able to see some of the problems other students are having so you don’t think you’re the only one with the problem.

Just tell me in the comment box below, what you’re having the most difficulty with in your study. For example, it could be time management, memory, exam anxiety, too much information to process etc… anything you can think of!

Hope to see your comments…

Another How To Study Question

Here’s a question from a student who’s already started How To Study Bootcamp

Here’s my situation. I have modules to study and then take an exam to get credit. The module is divided into chapters and at the end of the chapters are multiple choice questions and essay questions. There is so much information to learn. It’s especially difficult when studying subjects that I’m not familiar with eg computers and ethics. I failed the ethics exam twice. Will your program be able to help me? Subjects that I am familiar with I do well, such as, abnormal psychology. I got a B for that exam.

And here’s my answer..

Put it this way… you’re going to have to learn this stuff one way or another. I’m not saying that using my technique is easy for all subjects… It’s just more logical and efficient than anything else out there. So if anything can help you then it’s studying in the way I show you.

If you’ve been following the videos you’ll realize that it’s relevant for any subject as long as there are exams used for assessment. It’s like asking… “will practicing basketball help me play better basketball?”

So… to answer your question, yes, my study program will help you.

Just realize that it feels like a lot of information because you’re probably focused on the facts rather than the structure. Imagine if all the pages of a book were loose and scattered all over the floor compared with how they’re normally bound and arranged under titles and chapters. It’s the same with everything you’re trying to learn.

Focus on the structure first and then the contents.
