  • Exam season is upon us. So here is my exam note preparation routine! It's a three step process. How to study for exams:
    1. Read the notes I made during term time
    2. Write condensed notes on paper (draw every concept)
    3. Teach the content until I sound coherent
    And I KNOW that starting exam preparation is so hard when you can't find the motivation to do anything other than clean, watch RUclips videos ;) or scroll the internet. BUT I have a study hack for ya. Set a 10 minute timer. Trick yourself into the low hanging fruit. That'd get me started and into revision mode. And once I was in the zone it was never too bad, and much easier to continue.
    Exam days are truly horrible. I found positive affirmations worked for me. I've been telling myself it's gonna be great for years before I even heard about positive affirmations. But they do the trick!
    I hope you have a wonderful focused and fruitful exam season. Now's the time to put your phone into another room (after you like the video and subscribe, obviously). It's gonna be great!!
    The key to passing exams is knowing the content well enough to TEACH it back at the examiner. It's not enough to simply recognise the things you're reading/ be familiar with your beautiful note sheets :)

      One thing my friends and I did during my bachelor was to review the content together. So we practise teaching the topics and concepts to each other. That's very useful.

    We don’t have any exams, but do have deadlines around the year for making posters/essays/reviews/case study. I really like your videos - show daily life of a student in biotech but not boring as me

    I usually studied by reading the books and revising my notes about the classes. Although, I have to recognise your method is better for review content after the exams when you might need it in order to comprehend another topic. Perhaps in the next semester or even years later. Have everything well organised must be interesting. Not only for studying for exams but also to improve our own knowledge, creating easy access digital "memory flash drive."
