The top seven study tips for students

    • The most important thing in learning is planning and organization – first systematically do a time budget analysis.
    • No massive learning over several hours, but distribution of learning units (between 30 and 80 minutes) over a day.
    • This determines how the learning material can be distributed over the available time (sufficient breaks between learning units so that the brain can continue learning).
    • Plan systematic repetitions – the first repetition is the most important and should be done about 24 hours after learning, the second repetition after 3-4 days.
    • Only repeat more before going to sleep and do not learn anything new.
    • Reduce material by systematically making excerpts.
    • Organize small study groups in which you can quiz each other and in which you can eliminate ambiguities.
