I've been using many of these techniques thanks to your other videos and also a few books on the topic of learning (A Mind for Numbers; Make It Stick; Unlimited Memory; et cetera) and have had some great success implementing these techniques to become a straight A student (thank you for this, by the way!). I've always been a person who is much more focused on deep comprehension than on memorization, and I felt that this helped me with Anki. For me, rather than make easy Anki cards relying on cued recall, I made cards requiring free recall. While this definitely was bad for efficiency and I've since switched to cued recall cards in the style you suggest, I still use free recall for more difficult and cunceptual topics. Any ways, I'm writing this comment to say that I actually think memorizing BEFORE comprehending can help in at least one area: knowing physics equations. For some reason, for me I found that as the physics equations became more burned into my brain I became better able to make connections between them and recall them in related situations while living life (e.g. the torque equation when pushing on a door and feeling how easy or difficult it was to open depending on where I pushed; centripetal acceleration when feeling my body's inertia while making a turn in a car). Barbara Oakley agrees that memorizing the physics equations prior to comprehension can help in her book, "A Mind for Numbers." But otherwise, I do feel a major mistake students make is memorizing without comprehension; for me, this is intuitive because I struggle to find anything relevant without first understanding "why?"

This is gold Dr J
some interesting points, Thanks.
DR. THANK YOUUUU SOOO MUCH UTTERLY GRATEFUL FOR THIS!!
Future orthopedic surgeon here. Thank you for this advice!
Our perceived limit is way lower than our real limit. This came at a time when I was just about to give up on something.
Super informative contents here! Thanks a lot for making this video :D
Thank you for the tips!
I just joined med school and I'm feeling the heat thanks for this though....the bulk of knowledge can feel overwhelming...
in my country u can practice without license or training so its much better. i just learnt stuff myself by doing and its much more fun
Thank you so much for this 🙌🏽
Helpful!!! Can't wait to see more!😄

Medical content do not generally have a lot of "why's"
Is there a video with med school insiders on how to successfully pass a job interview in healthcare?
Need memm for med school courses ASAP please :)
Pls make more video on neurosurgeon.... you are one of the reason I grew so interested in it....
Thx yo
I'm just normal person and everything we gouna happens I I well be a doctor
❤️🧡

I just finished a test🥲
