Many years ago, I had imagined a realm and set out to acquire that realm, to make it a permanent realm. After much work, the realm came to me. But it also required that I realize reality is a choice, whether consciously or subconsciously chosen. Rarely is one gifted with a reality from early on and upon consequent achievement, we regard them to be a genius among us. We all, then, can be a genius by choosing our reality embedded in what is called 'belief'. I am a reader, a professional reader or at the least intending to be, well situated in my reading realm. Time and again, engagement take place as a break from my realm to serve the purpose of being a fellow human being. But my reading realm is the only thing that is real to me. The rest, unless there is a purpose, then may be regarded as a distraction.

It’s been 3 days and I am binge watching your videos from the very moment that I clicked one of your vid while scrolling on YT. Although that was not the 1st time that I saw that vid “the problem with active recall and spaced repetition”, in fact I first saw it last year but I ignored it back then because I was a new user and subscribed to Anki. And I haven’t utilized it that much. I am here because I really want to know what are the best strategies for learning that will work for me, I am in my 2nd year of doctorate degree and my goal was to have a passing grade, because of that I haven’t learned that much. Seriously, I am craving for CHANGE.

9:12 I think this is something that has helped me do well so far. I started the quarter off terribly due to some missed assignments and being busy with a family trip that I probably should’ve skipped. Im taking physics, differential equations and chemistry 142 and I was at like a C/B after turning stuff in late and it was a little intimidating but I knew that I still have the rest of the quarter. We’re approaching mid term and all three classes are now up to high B/A level. Not the highest, but trending up. With the assignments, I knew I wasn’t going to be able to actually learn the content and get them in on time, but would be better off actually learning the content correctly than just finding answers online and getting a good grade. Paying off now because I feel like I’m understanding the content and I’m primed to finish well.

What does it mean to find purpose of information ? Are the flow and the directionality only given by cause and effect relationships? 5) WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF LINKS BETWEEN PIECES OF INFORMATION ?

@@jorgesanabria6484 Diagnostic testing is measuring your ability to solve problems beforehand related to the chapter you’re going to tackle. I usually do it using the chapter questions at the end on each chapter. It helps for identifying the prior knowledge needed and the knowledge gaps you need to fill up so you have a purpose to fulfill when you read on the chapter. It also helps in priming because you can easily identify the terms in the question that appears unfamiliar to you.

About the 1st point about the grades-I felt it hard at the start of my medical journey and now it's my second time. When I had my 1st ever exam I thought I'm gonna get A but the night I couldn't sleep and cried because I was afraid to fail and guess-I failed,and for little extra I failed another one. I was so depressed but got up and studied because without studying I can't achieve my dream (and this is everything I wanted-to learn about human body,how does it work and how to fix it). The next semester I passed everything with As and one B and I saw thing are going good. The 2nd year was As and one B and I got scholarship. I was proud of myself but I became afraid to fail,I needed to stay at this lever,also I became a bit greedy.3rd year only As and scholarship,even happier, didn't think that something bad will happen. But now I'm in my 4th year in session and I got two As and two Bs,I was feeling miserable. But I realized because I had these grades and getting money and be one of the best among my colleagues made me egoistic and only caring for the As but not for the real reason I started studying medicine,I was studying because I wanted to show I can but not because I wanted to know this stuff and apply it in my future practice. So I want to give to all students advice not to feel study as a nightmare but as pleasure,a thing that you want to do,be curious for knowledge. Be present and when you study topics be a little bit independent, don't be afraid to have questions,find the answers,make scenarios,connect in the big picture and with manu other topics because there's logic in it but teachers/professors won't make it (nost of them teach very straightforwardly)-you have to make it,not always you'll get the best grades (just because not everything depends on you) but you learn from these mistakes, understand it how it should be and continue forward ❤ P.S. Good luck to those who have exams coming soon, you'll make it.

The number one tip I’ve gotten for learning/doing well in general is probably “embrace the struggle”. Justin talks about something similar with actual learning being uncomfortable. The math sorcerer on KZbin talks about “embracing the struggle” and it’s really helped me. Now when I’m struggling to understand a concept or do a problem, that comes into my mind that ”this is it!” And it really helps motivate me to push through to understand- and it works!
