As a Med student, I always make sure to stop studying at 10 pm. No matter how much I studied. If I studied less than desired, then it's my fault for not studying early. I would then learn my lesson and study earlier, helping me become more disciplined. I also make sure to at least just watch and understand the lectures rather than read and memorize if I don't have any energy to study. Small progress is still progress.

same, i usually study from 4:00 - 9:00 pm, i make sure not to go past that because my brain switches off when it gets late..

I have never stayed up all night to study. The thing is, my mother wouldn't let me stay up because she always repeated to me that sleeping helps to accommodate things, just like you explained. And I can completely agree because there were times when I didn't fully understand one topic but I didn't care, just went to sleep. In the morning, it was amazing how I understood everything and all the topics were much clearer. Sleeping is really really important and your explanation says it all.

[@ckckck555]

This is literally how I'm so good at absorbing concepts. I just don't care about the explanation if it seems difficult, and I come back to it later and then it all seems clear. Literally 8x faster than my peers because of this (and maybe some actual genetic superiority, but can't measure so who knows)

I'm a top student too but never study so much like my friends who have tutions for every subject and also attend online courses. But they struggle to answer basic questions in class (practical qsn). I open geography, history, language etc theoretical subjects only the night before exams(I sleep for 3-4 hrs on exam days). And throughout the year I work on the base of every subject which will stay in my brain. That's why it's hard for me to memorise theoretical informations. And everyone thinks I study like a machine everyday. If I did that, I swear I could score 100% in every subject, but I hate studying unnecessary details.

As someone who LOVES sleeping I was never able to wake up early, no matter how unprepared I am or how important the test that same morning is And guess what ? I was a top student, always first in my class, always getting the best grades My secret ? Working smart 1) Don’t leave things till the day before the exam, try to get as much preparation as possible weeks or months earlier (preparing notes, doing exercices, understanding the difficult notions) 2) leave the memorizing part to the last days. I always memorize stuff the night before the exam just before going to sleep and I wake up remembering everything by heart (don’t know how to explain it, maybe sleeping helps the brain fix all the readings you did earlier or sth) 3) Do past exams : you’d be surprised to learn how similar the questions are. If you don’t have them just ask : your teacher, older students, etc. This will help you know how to prepare and what you’ll need so that you can target exactly what you need Hope this helps someone

My study strategy is to sleep early and wake up at 5:00-6:00 am, then study till 10:00 am. Our adrenal glands starts to release at 4 am and peak at 10 am.. That’s why I can study less and learn more between those hours.. And when I learnt the diurnal variation of cortisol rhythm in 2nd year medical school, I was like now I knew the reason haha. After 10 am tho, I took a 30 min nap.. and never study again unless there’s like an exam coming up.. Still, I always go to bed around 8 pm tho.. I felt like my brain starts to resist learning after 6 pm and cannot handle anything after 8 pm.... The icing on the cake of studying in the morning especially on an exam day is that active recalling works better in the morning due to the long-term potentiation and memory consolidation that your brain is exposed to during Step 1 of NREM and REM respectively. Not to mention your anxiety level and muscle tone is reduced too.. PS: I was the top student both in first and second year of med school.. And also wishing I could be one in my third year too..

[@AishiBhattacharyaOfficial]

Woah for me its the total opposite. I'm in med school too. I've been the 2nd topper in my batch of 150 students in the first and second year university exams and the topper in 3rd year university exams, but I always prefer late night study. Mind you,it ruins my health for sure and I've tried many times to change my schedule but it simply doesn't work for me. My entire learning and revision process speeds up after dinner at night from 10 pm onwards till 4-5am in the morning. I can get things done faster and more efficiently. During exam time I study till 4 - 5:30/6 maximum in the morning sleep for 3-4 hours max and then just after getting up directly go give the exam. I never leave any topic for revision in the morning because from my experience I know I'll completely miss that part and from all the stress and strain of exams I get really nauseous after waking up and can't revise much in that terrible state. I've tried in normal days to go to bed early and wake up early, but first of all its a herculean task to wake me up early. I get terrible headaches, my brain seems clogged and fuzzy and I can't utilise my time. In fact what I would require half an hour to study at night before sleep, I will take more than 2 hours in early morning studies. So although I know it's taking a toll on my health, I just can't change my habit because that will mean considerably sacrificing my results. But of course above everything else, health is the most important.

[@angelrosetillo3319]

Great information! Thankyou!

[@Liza_vv]

Agreed. Currently doing a PhD, and I've just been allowing myself to sleep in a bit lately. I'm tired of forcing myself to wake up early and then have a horribly unproductive day. I'd rather get to the office/lab an hour or two late and have good quality work, and then stay a little later. You don't need to wake up at 5am to be successful, find what works for you.

[@pietrolocatelli33]

I have a correction to make: if you go to sleep late you're not missing out on the first cycles but on the last ones. Going to sleep late is the same as waking up early. You always start with the first cycles, it all depends on when you wake up. Also it depends from person to person, there are people who need a lot of sleep, others need way less, the brain can process all the needed things in as little as 1 or 2 cycles a night and the extra sleep is mostly for the actual body to rest, but that massively depends on the situation, sometimes even day by day for the same person. To be honest these are all kind of myths, the actual only way to sleep better is with trial and error. For example I sleep better if I go to sleep very late in the night, bright lights don't make any difference but I need to sleep a lot of time. Any change and I feel terrible when I wake up, even if I sleep more time than needed.

[@ee214verilogtutorial2]

Well that’s false. Instead of late night cramming when my brain doesn’t think right I prefer going to bed early (with the help of melatonin) and waking up at 5-6 am.

[@ImprovementGang]

Getting top scores in my classes right now, and I have got to say that I have followed 1 rule - always do the homework. Lots of times, homework can help you learn more and give you a margin in your total grade. For example, you can do well in homework and do average (like a B), and you can still get an A in the class. It is something that I see my classmates mess up constantly.

[@fendybendy6466]

yup, i did very little studying in highschool and had all A's with 1 B. I always did all of my homework and I was very attentive and active during the actual classes. as long as you do that, you don't need to study that much in highschool, outside of some memorizing and the such for bigger tests. I'm sure AP classes would require some extra studying outside of homework tho.

[@profanity3733]

I found it strange how my colleagues seemed to be struggling while I was doing fine in college/uni (getting high grades, even competing for the top). I never slept late nor wake up early to study. I was also daytrading (trying to atleast) stocks and cryptocurrency too which took a big part of my free time. I never forgot to workout and/or train boxing almost everyday. I also always ate healthy. Then I realized that most of my colleagues spent most of their free time on social media. That explained a lot of things. My point is: If you're struggling, go over how you manage your time and see if you're doing something wrong. Maybe you're spending too much time on something that doesn't yield a lot of useful results for you. Make use of your time properly. But don't forget to have fun. My recommendation: Find a useful hobby that you love. Do you enjoy editing videos/films? Do you like writing stories? Do you want to learn how to speak another language?

[@dangerousmango88]

i kinda agree with this. A lot of the time, its time management that usually bring people down in doing their work but tbh it also depends on their course load and subjects they took on that particularly term. My key thing is to NEVER cram and NEVER overload in a term. In addition, separate your personal and academic life. My advice is to have a timer like if 9pm or 10 pm hits don't do any school work or think of anything that has something to do with school.

I can do a bit of revision after this, but the rest of the day is just for relaxing and doing whatever I want.

This hippocampus analogy is perfect. I've always been a top student trying to revise at different times every day but no matter when I studied whether it was waking up at 6am to study or studying at 10 or 11 there was no difference. In the end, maintaining a constant sleep schedule and studying less while prioritising to remember my studying and forgetting less important things worked best. You need to be able to have control of what you are thinking about during your sleep by zoning out things such as KZbin videos before sleep.

[@gintongaparador999]

Recently, I've been observing my sleeping pattern and I found out I fall asleep pretty fast when I'm in the living room. I just feel sleepy every time I go there, but when I go in the bedroom, I'm wide awake and find it hard to fall asleep at night. The difference in both the living room and bedroom is that my bedroom has poor ventilation while the living room has a window and it's usually breezy there when it's evening.

sleep cycle has three phase that last 90min each: - deep phase: help us to store the information that we learn througth the day -light phase: help us to delete the information so we can learn new things -rem phase : help us to make connection between our knowledge natural ways to sleep faster and stay asleep: - temperature: cold (take hot shower so our bodies turn colder) - time : go to sleep every day and have a regular routine - light: get right exposure when you wake up and limit the amount of light when you go to sleep

i highly recommend everyone to get a lamp in their room and set the color temp to something warm. this way you can have your main ceiling lights off at night but still be able to see as the lamp gives off a dim, warm, soft glow which actually makes me feel even more sleepy.

My younger brother used to wake up 1 hour before school and do all his home work he also had time in the bus going and coming home and at recess... ive never seen him study during the day and hes got straight As

[@roisinnigcrainn7722]

I used to do this. I'd primarily use class time just to pay attention and take notes. Then I'd go home, relax with a movie, and go to sleep. The next morning I'd get up (early, but well-rested) and on the way to school, before class started, and during lunch time, I'd cram in all my homework that was due THAT DAY. 😅 But actually, I was using that homework as active recall without realising it! So I ended up not with straight-A's (I didn't expect A's all the time as I _never_ studied) but I only ever failed ONCE in my entire time in high school. That said, now that I'm in college, I have NO CLUE how to study! So skipping the study sessions comes with pros and cons! 😂

I been trying to keep myself motivated to learn a second language, there's myths around language learning and misunderstandings but definitely one should keep a great sleep schedule and meditate to ensure your mind keeps every bit of that data. Input is highly valuable in language learning, you have to allow your mind to subconsciously recognize all of the patterns the language posses. The brain after all is a pattern recognition machine.

[@ckckck555]

Problem is I think people focus too much when they learn, and then they get stuck somewhere unimportant and their focus gets broken and they have to bring it back up again. I keep a low level of focus and boost it up to 11 when I determine something is really important. Really helps skim past unnecessary details the first few times, and makes the process repetition-friendly. Then I can fit in the details as the final part of the puzzle after a few repetitions of learning the material and practice questions.

[@fralou_sind_kreativ]

I'm actually super surprised that this is not common knowledge. We learn while we sleep. Why do people think children sleep so much? Because they process all the things they have learned in the waking ours. With adults it's the same. I used to calculate the hours of sleep so my alarm would go off when I'm in a phase of light sleep. This way I felt much more energetic when I woke. Now I have my set time I go to bed and I wake up before my alarm. Everyone has a different time window where they work best. Some work good at night others in the morning, midday or afternoon. In these windows they are most productive. Unfortunately most jobs don't support that. I hope that one day jobs can be as flexible so every person can work in their time when they are most productive. Sleep is so valuable! Use it, it's a Superpower! :D

[@WiSHNUKEs]

i feel like sleep is the most mysterious thing to me. It works differently for all of us. Some days i wake up super energetic while getting less hours, and then i sleep more the next night and feel really sluggish. I use to be able to wake up about 10 min before my alarm clock went off and i felt super human. They'll be somedays where ill sleep for a decent time and wake up feeling like i got 10 min of sleep. Theyll be times where Ill dream and dream and dream during my sleep and wake up tired asf thinking I was up the whole time but in reality i was just dreaming. Happening to me once, I was so convinced that my dreams were real bc I felt like I got tired just from dreaming

[@fralou_sind_kreativ]

@@WiSHNUKEs Sounds interesting :) Have you found any patterns in when you feel super energetic or really tired after waking up even though you got the same amount of sleep? Do you go to sleep around the same time at night? Did you eat or drink anything an an hour before you went to bed? Have you watched a movie or read a book? Had an amazing conversation or an argument? All these things have an affect on our sleep and therefore also on the way we feel after waking up. A while ago I read a book about lucid dreaming which was amazing!

So if you want to be productive, stay away from distractions and instead of learning straight forward ... understand the concept, read the question answers or notes once or twice , then write in your own words from what you understood. .. this works quite well for me .. this way you'd never worry about forgetting concepts. . If you're covering a chapter, or memorising notes ( we don't have notes system yet , we do question answers in school for now ) , then make sub topics .. then cover them .. always helpful ..

Misleading title, someone’s perception of what is ‘early’ may very between different people. Of course, if you wake up at 3:30-4:30am you can miss a great deal of sleep, but 5:30-6:30? 8+ hours is definitely still possible, and students will be able to tackle more complex work and eat the ‘frog’ in the morning. In high school I’ve never met or have known of a top student who didn’t wake up before 7am (school starts at 8:50 where I am from). Most who had developed good habits with study, fitness and social connections were often disciplined enough to wake up at 6:30am (which most would consider early). Those who would wake up at 8-8:20am later, were often the most disorganised, wrecked sleep schedule (2-3am) and often got lower scores on assesments and SACs. In my opinion their is a lot of value to wake up ‘early’ in the morning.

Well I always studied late at night, and in my last high school year I studied almost always from 10 pm to 3 am. I opened my books around 6 pm, but I wasn't able to start that "early". Btw I graduated with a score of 100/100 from liceo classico (a kind of italian high school considered to be between the hardest, if not the hardest, were we study, among other subjects, mainly Ancient Greek and Latin). So, at the end of the day I don't think is about how much you sleep or at what time you go to bed, but is about knowing yourself and studying when you feel more productive

[@12akul]

I experienced the same with driving as well as studying , basically when I was trying to learn a new concept.

My freshman year of high school I was really motivated, I could do things easily, I was able to remember and process the information I was being told. I ended up getting a 99 on my math final and I maintained a 96 average for the whole year. I really struggle in the last half of the year because I would stay up really late and wake up early. I have had no idea about what could possibly be wrong with me, if it was burn out, but I think it's because I haven't been getting enough sleep. When I think about it, I would wake up, get ready, go to school, come home, do my homework immeadielty, have some free time for about 2 hours and then I'd go to bed at 9:30 or so. I have no idea how freshman me was able to do that, but I'm so so happy this video was recommended to me.

[@Call_me_Fred]

I've been a top student/gifted kid all my life and have always been a deep sleeper. When I don't sleep enough hours, my brain ends up making me sleep right after school. There was this era where I didn't sleep 8 hours, yet I felt I had slept enough. The same goes the other way around when I slept a LOT and still felt like it wasn't enough. Through the years I've discovered that I slept better in spring, auttum, and summer than winter. Also, I don't have an official night routine, but I always lower my computer brightness, volume, and turn off my keyboard's LEDs an hour or two before resting, and put on music to help me sleep. Then I turn the other way, facing the wall to sleep and I don't even last 5 minutes more awake. For homework I usually did it before going to sleep, I remember forgetting I even had some until my sleep hours when I recalled all I'd done that day and then stayed a few more minutes making homework, no more than ten minutes though. With exams, I read all my notes 10 minutes before going to sleep, and I would always get a 10 on that exam. I am now 16 and this method still works just fine for me. I took arts so I don't have as much homework as I used to and use that free time mostly to sleep. If you doubt me being a top student, my records are usually 10 out of ten, I am fluent in English and have a diploma to prove it (I'm Spanish, have never been to a native English-speaking country before in my whole life), won an advanced mathematics competition, finished exams 40 minutes before the average, 140 IQ in the tests, and was selected twice to participate in university-level novel writing competitions (Didn't won those though).

being a top student in my school, sleeping late works well on holidays and school days too.

I wake up by 12 pm or 1 pm during holidays but when I have school I sleep by 2 am and wake up at 6 am, I don't feel groggy or weird after eating something and as soon as I leave the house I feel great. I come home from school at around 2 pm and then nap from 4 pm to 7 or 8 pm. Then I study and/or finish my hw till 2 am and the cycle repeats.

I study like a 9-5 job. I do “me” stuff from 6am to 9am such as yoga, journaling, skincare and make my office space (home working) as inviting an environment as possible before starting working. Then I begin with a 50/10 pomodoro and use the breaks to move away from the desk, put on some music and stretch, refill my water/coffee and so on. I’ll have lunch between 1pm and 2pm then work until 4.30pm. From 4.30pm until 5pm I plan for the next morning - meaning when I sit at my desk at the start of the next day I already have a game plan/to do list and don’t waste time working out what I should be doing that day. Then I watch an episode of something with my iPad so I can plan non-work responsibilities like social events, gym classes, chores, budgeting. Next is the gym between 5-6ish then showering, dinner around 6.30pm. After that I just relax and decompress in time for sleep. 9pm I read a few chapters of a book until I’m tired which I put down at 10pm if I’m not asleep yet. Phone is put in the other room and bedroom window is opened before reading and I use a physical alarm clock, but my body knows my routine so I usually wake up 1-2 minutes before it goes off anyway. Our bodies like routine and knowing what’s happening next. The most important thing with sleep is resting and rising at the same time every day. Even weekends.
