college study tips that actually help

samsstudygram:

• put your phone on silent and put it across the room
  
• listen to classical/soundtrack music without lyrics
  
• make index cards for important vocab
• wear pajamas
  
• make diagrams and pictures. they don’t have to look pretty, as long as you understand it
  
• make timelines for historical events
  
• have a light snack
  
• drink coffee or tea to keep you going
  
• take a break every hour or so
• have one pencil/black pen and one colored pen or highlighter. anything more will just distract you. the aesthetics aren’t important, your knowledge is
• don’t be afraid to email/message your teacher or a classmate if you don’t understand something. the last thing you want to do is learn the incorrect information
• know that sleep and health is more important than your grade. you cannot perform as well on a test if you are tired or sick. take care of yourself
• it’s not a race. it’s not about who can learn something in the quickest time, it’s about learning
• take a deep breath 
• prioritize your homework by how long it will take you and when it’s due
• plan some you time in between studying and school
• if you’re mentally exhausted, set a timer for 30 minutes and take a nap. any longer and you’ll wake up even more tired
• don’t understand something? that’s perfectly fine, don’t stress over it. ask for help rather than complaining
• have a goal in mind and write them down. say things like “i am getting an education so i can get the job of my dreams. the life that i want. the happiness that i deserve”
• be thankful. it is a privilege that you get to go to school and get an education. 
• you got this.
