I turn off all electronics and distractions and write everything out multiple times. Over and over again. It helps get the information not only in my memory but in my muscle memory as well.

Also absolutely close / sign off from any and every social media. Give yourself 10 minutes after each hour of studying if you need to.

I found a similar thing that works for Windows: http://parker.kuivi.la/projects/selfrestraint.html

That's my method. I write things down over and over again until I'm sure I know it. However, it's very time-consuming so I've been looking for different ways.

Flash-cards seem to be a good idea.

Adderall

does that exist !?!?!? Tell me more about it !

This!!! Esp when it's a really cute guy who teaches so well

Think of it not as learning stuff for school in order to regurgitate on a test, but because you want to, just because you want to learn more--for the sake of your own edification. It sounds weird and idk if it's making any sense but it works for me.

I use flash cards for everything. They work but they taking for ****ing ever to make.

Definitely trying flash cards next time.

4 hours till my exam though. Hope I studied well enough

There's lots of flashcard apps tho so you dont have to write them.

Color code your notes, it helps you (or me at least) organize them in your mind, and your eyes will be drawn to important words whenever you scan your notes.

When I'm studying I always read 1-2 pages, then try to recite them, Rinse repeat until I know it. If I miss some smaller details I write those down so I can learn them at the end separately.

Keep dem tips coming!!
I have a preliminary exam in law filosofy tomorrow and I have yet to do 200 pages from now.
