How to Study Effectively in Medical School | Study Smart (UK)

[@mohammedkarim6615]

Not taking notes is the single best piece of advice. Focus on getting the information into your head from the get go and learn to have confident memory.

[@DursameenZehra-hk7ov]

Not for everyone thou, i have really bad memory. If I don't take notes , I'm definitely gonna fail

[@giusleao]

I love taking notes because i have adhd and the only way I can concentrate is taking notes. Weird isn’t it?

[@michelledyment1832]

​@@giusleao No, not weird. Taking notes is the only way I can focus too.

[@relaxinglabvideos]

To the person reading this who may be tired of studying but HAS to; sometimes, before studying, you need to remind yourself what you're doing this for. you're doing this so you can enjoy your life later. you could even be doing this in hopes of going to university and partying the heck out of a Friday night. you'll get there you can do it. let's try to make it together, eh? smiles and offers you a hand fix your posture, unclench your jaw, relax your muscles, breath in, ..... and breath out. repeat with me; "I got this!" Damn right! you HAVE got this. believe in yourself

Couldn't agree more about taking note. Once I stopped wasting my time to make the whole new note and only jotted down the important things during the class, I have more time to spend on reviewing the content like speaking to myself over and over or practicing the exam. In this way, the knowledge is more absorbed and it's with me longer. 💖

[@Sarah-gc1ry]

but how can you "review the content" if you dont have any notes to review from??

[@suchaks]

I read textbooks and just small notes that I took during the classes, I didn’t mean that I didn’t take any notes. I just didn’t rewrite all the notes, but spend time reading and acknowledge myself by talking to myself. Anyways, everyone has different methods of absorbing knowledge. 🥰

but how do you remember the lesson if you don't take notes?

[@suchaks]

@lily16009 same thing as above reply. I read textbooks and just took small notes during the classes, I didn’t mean that I didn’t take any notes at all. I just didn’t REWRITE all the notes, rather I spend time reading, repeating and acknowledge myself by talking to myself. Anyways, everyone has different methods of absorbing knowledge. Hope you find one that fits you. ☺️

[@mercyapolot7757]

The main takeaway I’ve taken from this video is the importance of practice questions & active recall.

I’m a med student in Turkiye. I have an exam in 8 days. Today I studied 6 hours, took notes and watched videos. At the and of the say I realized that I only wasted my time and got nothing in my brain. It was so disappointing. I have not much space to took voice notes but I’ll try that brillant idea. Thank u sis!

Ok ❤ sleep go

[@dmoon4269]

Wow, I didn't know how much I needed to see someone else doing what I started doing. I really felt like I was doing a mistake when I stopped taking notes and watching lectures, because I found that it did not help me at all, but I was the only one who did it and people looked at me like I was crazy. But the time I gained from it is really used in a much more effective way. I am also a foreigner studying in a second language, so I really take double the time to complete the tasks other medical students need.

[@Alien2799]

I think she will be a crapy doctor.

[@seleniums101]

For me it goes tactile (most effective) -> visual-> auditory (least effective) This means that I *have* to take notes to learn. I have to touch, highlight, write. The next best one is reading. And even when I’m not taking notes from reading I sometimes move my hand as if writing. Auditory learning does nothing for me. In one ear and out the other. I’m so glad Zeliha found what’s best for her and to be honest it’s the most fortunate learning method. No hand cramps. Best for what she will be doing since she’ll be talking with patients. But I encourage everyone to modify their learning methods based on which input (tactile/visual/auditory) works best for them

I find this topic of study methods so interesting. I actually learn the best when I listen to lectures. The audio just lives rent-free in my brain lol. But it’s really interesting to see so much variability when it comes to studying.

[@vxnessa_rey]

hey what do you mean by tactical learning ?

[@seleniums101]

@@vxnessa_rey tactile learning essentially means learning by physical touch. Hands on learning if you will.

All my life I’ve been doing it wrong. Im a perfectionist and I used to think its good to take notes but now i realize it takes a lot of my time and I don’t even go back and check it because it’s literally a TEXTBOOK of notes. Thanks for sharing

[@SimranKaur-gn5tx]

I am a engineering graduate but I have similar experience like you. I think note making is time-consuming and your solution for it is using voice notes which is great way. My friends and I used to divide units and teach each other which helped us a lot. Using Diagrams to study topics and concepts has been one of the great ways we found. At the end we only tried remembering diagrams. Yes books were never useful for scoring well. So youtube has been a great resource. I got some great tips in this video. Thanks for sharing them!😊💖

[@drZayd786]

Thank you zeliha . My internal exams is on the head and i luv the idea you gave about flashcards and passmed. It truely 2x my study timing and interest. I highlights the imp points about disease, management and epidemiology and paste it on the google notes. It really helped me when i am revising the specific topic. Once again thank you❤.

[@johnz7167]

My most effective study method (proven) as a med student is studying in a way to pass quizzess and exam. Those two are the main source of grades in med school. Idk what i should do, if I need to read a texbook Ill read it, if i need to listen to lectures ill listen. I always try to predict what will be in the test, if u dont know, just asks upperclassmen. I always take a book quiz after a lecture, and I always take note my mistakes after a quiz from my professor to think why I didn’t answer jt right. What I dont do is study long hours and do troublesome long notes. I study 2-3 times a day. 20-45 mins each session. Just keep things simple guys, and at first, it is good to give it your all and then adjust accordingly after a month

[@ejisip2091]

You rock it! I will consider your study techniques once I'm in a med School😇. Thanks and keep safe.

[@thomast9736]

The approach to study preparation really depends on subject. As an engineering graduate, math, the physical sciences, and programming require lots of problem solving. The lecture material serves to let you know what material is pertinent. The real understanding comes from working problems in the text.
