How to dominate ANY subject using the T Tree study method

One of the biggest mistakes that you can make when learning something, is to try and commit it to memory without first understanding how it works. When we study, grasping concepts is more important than remembering details. In this video, we share a versatile method that you can use to learn new content no matter what the subject: the T Tree.

If you are using RemNote, the T Tree method fits like a glove 🔥 - topics as Folders - titles as Documents - terms as Concepts - tables as Descriptors Thanks, M&M for the amazing videos 🙌🙌

[@supernopal]

@@CajunKoiAcademy How would you manage multiple layers in Remnote. Multiple Folders (e.g. folders w/in folders)? Also, I think I'm getting a little confused with "terms" because I am imagining the bolded words in texts, however, it seems like "terms" for you is really more like the name of a section in a chapter (e.g. 1.1, 1.2 of CH 1).

[@hima5554]

@@supernopal To make a sub folder, you should first create parent folder and then create a child folder, then pin the child folder and open the parent folder and drag the child folder and place it in parent folder. Hope this helps!

I already use notion but i'm really interested in RemNote since i love all of Mike and Matty's stuff. I wanna keep it as simple as possible. Should i quit Notion for RemNote or use both?

[@am.b.1552]

I did the same the 1st year. I was shocked by the tons of material and I wanted to memorize it but I failed 2 exams. I realized that understanding should be on 1st place. When you understand the topic,it's easier to memorize it and make connections with other topics. Also when you forget it,you can easilly recall it. P.S. Thanks for this video and all the best!

[@Kasumi10074]

Correct many students who failed the purpose of active recall, and studying isn’t memorizing which many young people makes, so understanding should come first. You need to go over and over and repeat until you understood the information. I use active recall too and took a while to understand the information.

great idea: Learn new information by RELATING it to prior knowledge, and organize a structure that integrate the new information and the established prior knowledge. Next, list details of this new information into tables, preferably compared to relevant aspects of the familiar knowledge.

Love your content. I am a practicing MD and prepping for the board recertification. The problem is that the boards require LOTS of memorization of minutiae to there are lots of "tables". There is no way around that for me; it is what it is but I hope Remnote helps me do a better job.

[@audreyguo13]

interestingly, that's ac how i take notes and it really helps me learn. By that I don't mean actually drawing out a tree, but more like outline bullet points. So you would put the topic on bullet point layer one, the titles on bullet point layer two, the terms on bullet point layer three, and the tables on bullet point number four. Of course, for each topic it varies on how many layers of bullet points you need so you just need to adjust to that. I'll give an example below: 1. Mindsets (topic): a. Fixed Mindset (title) i. Characteristics (term) 1. talents and abilities are set traits (table) 2. always trying to look "smart" 3. ..... 4. .... ii. Examples 1. .... 2. .... b. Growth Mindset i. Characteristics 1. .... ^ real example from my entrepreneurship class notebook ok you get the gist, and if under ur table u have more specific details, well, just add another layer. And if for that topic all of them are terms and you don't have tables, then don't add the fourth layer. I also have custom bullet points for each layer so now I actually find note-taking sorta fun. Hope this helps whoever need it lol

[@boitshepho9827]

[@alexclovis4590]

It would be amazing if you guys knew (or could find and collaborate) with other innovative learners from different fields, because its one thing saying that this method is versatile for other fields, and its actually a completely different thing to just be able to guide and provide examples of how this works in obscure fields. For example for a student studying medicine, engineering or science, this is easily replicable without issues. However if we were to take me for example, a linguistics student and learner or languages, music and art, to actually attempt to try this but within these areas is more of a complicated feat than it appears. (I am not saying I do not appreciate or value this information, I am just pointing out I’d love to see this critical thinking of learning applied with examples to a wider range of subjects, especially subjects where such a self reflective method of learning is hard to find employed on the internet)

[@CajunKoiAcademy]

Haha yes that would be cool to meet other creators who would be interested. I’ve personally used it on multiple subjects, but that’s still just n of 1. We’ve actually built this method into the fabric of RemNote (hence the tree logo) and have seen success in our community across so many subjects
