6-hour study session
Studied for around 6 hours today.
I know it sounds long and I also did go to Uni for 4 hours, but it wasn't that bad honestly.
When I study, I don't just try to memorize, but also to understand. With computer science, this sometimes takes a while.
My primary way to understand things is to take notes during lectures and listen to the professor's words. Then I let it be for a day or two and return to write my notes down in my notebook (not the laptop, the paper one). But this time, I also read through the script/PowerPoint (if the professor gave us access to it). When I'm done with that an hour or two have already passed and I now have written down the content of that lecture at least twice.
A while (maybe hours, sometimes days) later, I create some anki cards, which leads to me reading through the topic again and filtering out the most important stuff. That I type it into Anki for review. With that, I went through it for the 3rd time.
So at that point I at least have memorized the most important parts, from this point on Anki makes sure that it will stay in my head.
But not just reviewing those topics takes time. Doing the tasks our professors gave us also takes 30mins to 2 hours.
That is why I'm today, aiming to study even longer.
But how do I manage to study for 6 hours?
First things first: I use flow. This program reminds you to take breaks every 25-40 Minutes. So yes I take breaks regularly.
Second: start with the stuff that takes the most concentration. Writing cards go last while doing tasks or reviewing the topic will be earlier.
Third: No Phone, I use Forest to block my phone for 2 hours, before I take a more extended break. This means I have no access during my 5-minute breaks.
fourth: Exercise, do stretches or push-ups during short breaks. Even walking around your room can help.
five: Open a window and drink water.
Six: If you get bored, change the topic. Study some other subject for a while.

I know people have tagged me in things before, and tbh I’m kind of worried about Tumblr eating my @s, because that does happen a lot? So I’ve decided I’m gonna start tracking the tag #linksstudyblr if y’all want me to see and reblog your stuff! I’ll most likely reblog and queue tagged content right away so it’s more visible as well.

Completed practical file for tomorrow as well as notes of unit "Chromosome". I had saved some money for my friend's birthday but as I'm far away from her, I ordered food directly to her hostel, she was very thrilled 😄💕

Learned about various enzymes that are used in DNA replication, it's absolutely amazing how everything works in such marvelous co-ordination in our body — from our organs to dna just to keep us alive and healthy (as much as possible).
