Honestly? Most study advice is bullshit
Never let your studying go to waste
No feedback: half the effect (0.39 vs 0.73) Explaining it yourself: g 0.55 · 69 studies Recall vs rereading: 39% vs 26% at 6 months Spacing in med ed: SMD 0.78 · 21,415 learners
Stop trying a million study systems
Use one that's backed by evidence, built by someone who actually does it
Don't listen to study advice from people who have never done it
Research that doesn't work in practice. Anecdotes you can't repeat. This is the best of both worlds
Encode
First, encode it. Simplify, compare, connect, then say it out loud
Recall
Then recall it, so what you understood survives the pressure. Then do that... a lot
SBA
Then practise it, so the confidence is still there on exam day
Disease index
Then a quick review of the highest-yield material, so you can recall it in bulk
The honest part
