Sir I have a query
About SPACED REPETITION.. how can a student manage it if he has already gone through the test of those particular topics and later gets busy with lots and lots of new topics and other study stuff so how do you actually manage a spaced repetition on the midst of a very busy session.
No matter how hard I try.. the things i once studied for tests are opened again only in the final exams and by then they are already long forgotten
@@koketsobaholo7 nlll
This guy is magic.... i watched one video and now ive finished all assignments that ive been procrastinating, booked a flight to china, gone to a monastery and am now a monk currently in my 3rd year training
Amazing
A monk?...
That escalated quickly....
Im a monk eyy
😂😂😂🤣🤣
Weird flex but ok
Ali is like the Casey Neistat of the studytube community
He has to fight Tibees, Thomas Frank and StriveStudies for that.
TRIAL BY COMBAT!!!
@@raymeester7883 Thomas Frank has gone out of "touch." He, apparently, has ran out of content, and his all-time low view counts is a testimony to this.
Rahell Omer
His advice and its applications is what matter. If it is effective and improves performance is what matters.
Most of the topics Ali covers has already been talked about on Frank's channel.
@@RahellOmer I would disagree with you, I still watch Thomas Frank's videos consistently. And also, his podcast is great for more conversational content and less serious. I think Ali and Thomas have different things to offer, but I really don't think Thomas is slowing down yet. I still think his content is top-notch, and it's more varied compared to Ali. But as a premed, Ali has bumped up to my favourite RUclipsr with Thomas as a close second :)
THIS!!
GCSE History Teacher here Ali, and a massive fan of the channel. I've been passing on your advice and strategies over the months to my students and will continue to do so. Keep up the great work and positive contribution! ^_^
I wonder how many other teachers/professors there are here busily passing this study advice on to our students 🤩
hi!! i'm gonna be a history major in uni but i took a break and kinda lost a lot of skills, can i know what skills a history major should possess?
Phase 1. Scoping the general topics and subtopics of a subject: use active recall techniques according to the retrospective time table that fits your schedule. identify where you strengths and weaknesses of the subject.
Phase 2. Fill the holes in your knowledge very broadly and fight the temptation to get deep into the evidence.
Phase 3. Drill down into the details until you're confident that you could reach a higher mark in the class.
* pick your favorite flashcard creator whether its quizlet or making your own. Use this not for broad subjects, but for the niches.
* use the retrospective time table to log when you study each topic within certain subjects.
TESTING-active recall, flashcards, testing yourself before, during, and after studying
SPACING-"deliberate non-practicing", space out study sessions to forget some information
CATEGORIZING-if you want learn the information, create a category-based system such as a "tree of knowledge" or "mind map" with branches that hold specific information about that general subject
INTERLEAVING-if you're finding learning hard, then you're learning correctly. the brain is like a muscle; work it out.
I know he is putting a lot of effort in making these videos to help us out. But honestly, I need to be selfish. If I keep watching these videos, i won't be left with any time to do my studying.
Later, I will watch all the videos. So, thank you Ali.
And thank you, for this comment. 😊 you both are saviours.
Thanks you so much for organising and writing what Ali said in the video. This is very helpful for many people watching this video
Thanks man!
In my opinion as a medical student, this video added to the background of your previous content is the best I’ve ever seen on RUclips.
Last year I won for the second time the major competition among medical students in Brazil - Elsevier Anatomy Olympiad - then I was awarded with a trip to AMEE (conference about medical education - last year was in Vienna). This video, alone, added much more than the whole conference. I have no words to say thank you, Ali - you make the difference for me.
I’m excited to meet you personally soon. It will be one a great honor. Stay safe, Ali. Thank you again!
I want at least an hour of your "study with me video" Just so that I can study alongside you! This is the series I have been waiting for all along! XoXo
OH MY GOD!!!!
All my life i thought those vids were just made for us to WATCH them, and not to actually STUDY with them,
NO wonder how stupid it always sounded to me!!!!
@@gotnoname7051 no way my dude 😂😂
I wish I was a student and you my teacher, alas I'm just a youtuber now. Love your vibe.
Taimoor bhaijaan aap yahan?
O MY GOD morro Bhi wha ap Bhi yhan ! ❤❤
Oh my God mooro bahii
Morroo bhai is amazing👍👍👍
omg mooroo you are here!!!! 😍😍✨
This guy is so excited about studying...that's weird and awesome!!
Wow. I'm just... wow! Everyone needs an Ali Abdaal in their lives! I surely do! Thx for all the tips
I'm a secondary science teacher and this has completely changed how I approach front loading, guiding, and assessing my students. I have been incorporating these skills into my daily lessons with students and within 2 weeks the results have proven favorable.
So excited for this series - especially the Google Sheets method! Have been getting a little too reliant on ANKI recently and this seems like an excellent alternative for understanding concepts :)
Eric Tian do u have ideas about the first purpose of using google sheets? about making retrospective active recall timetable
Eric he made a video about it. He basically recalls info and then writes the date on google sheets and color codes it based on how easy or hard it was to recall. That way he knows if he’s improving or not. He does that instead of the other timetable method which is basically scheduling specific time on when to recall info. He said this last method doesn’t work as well for him.
I just subscribed to your channel few hours back and have been binge watching till now.
Your doing a great job 😇

I love how you are so genuine in everything you say. I watched all of your study with me and study method video and everything you say is said in a previous video rather than made up to make new content.
Thank you, Ali, you have really inspired me, I got a lot to catch up with. Greetings from Paraguay. Keep it up!
I absolutely love how your videos are structured and how you are able to condense sooo much helpful information in such a short time!
Fantastic
This video is super applicable to MCAT studying in the US. I was feeling a bit lost in preparing for this beast of an exam and watching and rewatching this video is incredibly helpful. Thank you!
I love how your videos are targeted at different age ranges!!! There's always something you can learn and implement into your lives no matter what age. Thank you xxx
I think your channel is the most helpful channel in RUclips! Thank you so much for giving your time and effort for all this content.
Love love LOVE this Ali! Thanks for making the time to make this vid 👏👏
I’m an orthopaedic registrar in Malaysia. It’s 11pm here, and I’ve had a pretty full-on day, but this video has me pumped up to use your way to revise for my exit exams. Thanks for creating all of this incredibly helpful and (yes, I’ll say it) motivating content.
love your videos - you put so much effort and thought in to all your videos, thank you!
Can't wait!! I'll be here all the way!! I use Quizlet too and it's definitely very fun and interactive! Can't wait for next week😃
Thank you so much for sharing your amazing studying tips and bringing your subscribers along with you throughout your med school journey. I am a student in an honours bachelor of Athletic Therapy program coming straight from highschool, and your advice has greatly helped me in my success and motivation as a student! :)
Really like all of your video’s. Even though I study economics I Still get a lot of value out of your video’s and your positivity really brightens my day. Take care!
You are, no doubt, the most useful and helpful study channel on YT. Thank you so much for making these videos!
Found my mentor!!!
Thanks for all these videos
You are saving lives here!
Save more lives
Bro loved your video,it really helped me in many problems.Keep up the good work and thank you for the tips cuz I asked you to do it.
Great video! You never fail to inspire me to be productive!😊😊
On that note, please do a video on how you use active recall and spaced repetition methods. Also, how do you space out your exam study schedule? I always tend to run out of time. 😪😪
Excited for your study with me videos!!!
Has anyone ever told you how great of a teacher you could be ? I could hear you advice all day long and wouldn't get slightly bored (hence why I wantched you 35 mins video about 4 times already), you truly inspire me ❤ Can't wait to follow this journey of yours !
WOW, when everyone says you can't be a RUclipsr and a medical student, thanks for being a great example of both!!
Always love your videos...thanks for sharing so much of your eventful life!
Ali, thank you yet again! Going back to uni twenty years later is going to be very different to back in the 90’s. Will be getting the new iPad Pro & Apple Pencil at the end of the month and rewatching your videos!
Cannot stress how much I appreciate how structured your videos are
Ali this video is great. I love your exam mindset, it's really inspiring.
I keep watching your channel from longer time, love it! Great job! Greetings from Poland^^
I'm sharing your techniques with my students. Extremely well done, Ali!
I'm SUPER excited for this series!
‘I don’t wanna be a wasteman Doctor’ should go on a mug or something 😂😂
id buy it
yesss
Ali Abdaal Merch!! Lol
Ali you should do some webinars / master classes on studying and the research you’ve found most effective. I would most certainly attend! Again, another great video
All the best Ali. You are just amazing!!! World needs such a genuine soul like you. God bless you always 🙏 🙏 🙏
Watching your videos makes me excited to study. Thank you so much!!!!
Thank you again Ali. I think these are great tools to keep up with high volume change in medicine after fellowship.
The quality is actually so good. Keep it up
Thank you! Keep doing these!
Whole my life I had been an average student,today I am at the most important phase and I'm preparing for an exam and I have found a perfect place to start. Thank you
Thanks so much for this series!
You are my favorite youtuber. I’m a pharmacy student and you make me want to study and gain as much knowledge as i can. I just love listening to you and the way you structure your videos - man you deserve an A++ for that! Massive thumbs up ☺️❤️
Good job
Excellent video, Ali. Thanks for the help :)
Awesome video, i really like the break down of your content you present at the beginning of the video.
I love this series!!
Thanks for making amazing videos like this one. your videos really make me happy and they are amazing.
Great news you’re doing this series. Looking forward to more on google sheets and Flashcards as want to know more about how and when. I think most of us are one or t’other. You hinted that google sheets is for learning concepts and I guess flashcards for facts? Also, I’d be pleased to see the background music go down a notch in volume and a little slower although it won’t stop me watching. Also interested in how you’ll fit your study in as free time must be in short supply.
Love your videos, they're so helpful and have really helped mindset 😊 Could you possibly do a video spilling the tea on being a junior doctor? Pros, cons etc. Cheers x
I like how excited u get mentioning active recall and spaced repetition.😁
Great video! Very helpful thank you :)
Hi Ali! Pretty much like your study series! Could you please consider to talk about ebook searching (academy)? Also interested in how u manage your time in a day. How to keep fit? Thank u for all these helpful videos and your warm smile.
I really appreciate what you do bro !
Great video! I will use some of these concepts to help my 5th grader! Thank you! :)
Every time i watch his videos, i get inspired, the accent, quality of the content etc.
This man is saving my life!
Cannot wait for that Google Sheets video! I just made my own 'magic spreadsheet' for my 3rd year undergrad classes, and I'm excited! I already feel more aware of my subjects, and more prepared. Absolutely great content, thanks Ali :)
About 4 days ago I started watching your videos you were at 184k subs. Now it's 203k. That's pretty fast. Happy for u 🎉

YES! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
I really liked you google sheets technique. Will apply that to my USMLE preparation! Thanks!
I'm a pharmacy student and this channel have been helping me a lot!
I really love ur videos. I’m ur biggest fan !

How awesome that you’ve chosen OB/GYN as your specialty. I’m a labor & delivery RN currently and I’m in graduate school to become a women’s health nurse practitioner. Your tips have helped me to not waste study time with strategies that aren’t effective. Thanks for all of the evidence based advice! It’s very much appreciated!
great video! gonna help med a lot.
My first video of yours started at 12:00 pm now it 4:00 I couldn't resist watching all these forsaking my sleep😄
Most organised study channel I had ever watched
My first day of watching your videos ...I am going crazy ... too good :-)
Hey Ali, great video! Just a suggestion, you should add pop-tags with redirect links to the other videos you mentioned in the intro. Im going to look for them now, and its a great feature to have in vids!
Good luck on your exam!
It’s really funny to imagine the future doctor preparing for the role by playing asteroids on quizlet
So helpful!!!!!!!!!
Can't wait for your next video! 👍🏻
Curious. Have you encountered any difficult patients because you're junior?
I'm preparing for MRCPsych tests too, thanks for the great tips ☺️🙏
I wish you all the best in your life Ali
I like the way you organize your videos and your titles.
Thanks a lot Dr. ali
Abida, can you make a video on what exactly you do while taking notes(aka hmwhat type of notes do you take?).
Ps.-ive watched the 'how do i take notes on my Ipad pro' video. So don't confuse this with that
This guy is literally the smartest you tuber. You definitely are going to be a doctor.
I think he said he already is one!
found my mentor. Thanks a lot Ali.
I keep watching yu the whole day...crushing on youu
Thank you so much, you are my new Idol.
Another excellent video well done I really like Quizlet. I use Quizlet in my teaching and encourage my students to use the App in their revision process.
