Please make a video on self improvement ( where ever I go try to talk to other I feel left out no one like and sometimes I say and do some wired things and I shouldn't do ) please a video to improve are self so I couldn't feel left out
Active recall - make quizlet or flashcards and "gamify learning" - Learning curve, knowledge is forgotten unless constantly used Feynman technique - Teach information in easy terms to a friend or to no one and record yourself Spaced repetition - works well with active recall - Want to be able to do a "quizlet or homework" 3 times, spread between 3 different days Priming - Visualize, close eyes and think why this is important, visualize you knowing the material - listen to music, my opinion 40hz gamma music, but personal preference is key - get your brain excited to study Optimized breaks - time spent studying doesnt equal material learned - use naps or nsdr to your advantage
I've been going down the rabbit-hole of study tips but found it hard to wrap my head around them all, this video summarized everything that I've read, seen and heard. Thank you so much. I will save this video and come back many times.
For personal use 1) do qs instead of just reading the notes. It'll help in active recall 2)only check the notes after trying to solve multiple times with multiple methods 3) Feynman technique, just record what you're studying. Physics, chemistry stuff and listen when you're free. 4) devote majority of your day for question practice 5) repeat your mocks for increasing speed 6) don't loose focus. You must do this rn. So just enjoy, listen to music, treat it like a video game. Ignore other bs. This should be your only priority. Don't fuck up.
I have 5 weeks until my exams begin, I’ll use this video fully to help me, current grades I’m sitting on from last year is : E in Geography, C in Computer Science, Merit in Business 1, and Pass in Business 2. I’ll come back once I get my results.
Collin, ive been watching your videos for quite a while and they are extremely helpful! I dont think theres anyone else on the platform with studying tips like yours. Thank you for putting in effort for making these videos.
I have my main exam tomorrow and I followed u since long so u tell these many times and i followed these techniques through the preparation. Now I have confidence to give the exam. All thanks to u. This video is real blessing for me.
As a Yale Neuroscience student, I can confirm that everything Collin said here is so valuable 🤝 Don’t fool yourself when studying!! If you don’t know the answer when practicing or doing flashcards, no big deal. Review, and retry later 👊
This was what my school did to all of the students and I thought it was crazy to drill past papers and tons of questions but yeah I did get straight A’s. Can’t believe I was already doing this 20 years ago.
You’re so good and straight to the point when it comes to what works, ive probably watched 50 videos on studying methods to the point that I spent more time watching them than studying, but there are barely youtubers who get straight to the point. Most of them spit a lot of theoretical stuff that by the end of the video I don’t know what method to follow
i've been searching for a good video like this for a long time. it says everything and in the shortest time, good job and thank you very much. will be thinking of you during my next uni session haha
Study tips that actually work 1. Active recall: remembering what you read , make it like a game Make a fun quizlet Use chatgpt for questions Study Past papers 2.Feynman technique: Teach things u read 3. Spaced repetition: Read ur notes,quizlet, past paper with this technique This improves long term memory with relaxed way Do it 3times... In 3 days Defeat the forgetting curve with spaced repetition 4. Priming + optimized breaks Manipulate ur own mind to feel more focused Close ur eyes for 30 seconds and visualise why u r studying this, why it is important to be an academic weapon Listen music Time studying ≠ knowledge Take naps/ NSDR (non sleep deep rest) Bye bye 👋🏻🫂
Thank you for the study techniques!! I have board exams for class 11 from the day after tomorrow. I will use all the techniques while revising the syllabus! Thank you, Collin! Waiting for your video for a long time!
Collin thanks for do this video it's amazing how you can explain this type of themes so easily, it prove that you put in practice all of this knowledge. I hope that the person that read this comment has a good day.
Good work Collin! I’ve been watching your videos in the morning before heading off for school and on days I do that I feel so much more productive and I have so much more ideas. I also tend to get a lot of work done on those days. I’ll save this for tomorrow because tomorrow week I have a quiz in a subject I’m not necessarily the best in and I want to make this quiz experience different because I notice I’m big on procrastination with studying. Have a good week everyone!

Thanks for the video Collin , in 1.5 weeks I’ve got an exam which is inclusive of 4 subjects collectively. Will put these tips into action and update my progress .
I'm surprised to see that I already do almost all that cause I clicked on your video to find new methods 😭 These methods are FIRE i've been doing this for months and i'm the top student in almost all my classes 🎀
• ACTIVE RECALL - Quizlet - Past papers - Feynman technique • SPACED REPETITION - Do the same Quizlet, past paper as well as active recall within the gap of 3 days, that's how you're more likely to defeat the forgetting curve • PRIMING - Close your eyes & visualise your WHY - Listen to music • OPTIMISED BREAKS - time spent studying not = to knowledge gained - use naps
as a student who never had to study much until harder courses came along, im realizing i used a lot of these techniques on accident, and thats why i did so well (teaching friends while learning math in class, mumbling to myself in simple terms that mumbo jumbo of a textbook page, etc). They work!!!
I've literally seen your each and every videos and they're 100% worthy! You helped me when i need such a type of motivation! Continue making such a type of videos. I know you'll gonna succeed in your life and achieve great heights ❤
At our school, we don’t have access to past exam papers. They only let us see our scores before retrieving the papers afterward, and we’re never allowed to bring the test results home. The questions in our exams are so random that they’re mostly application-based problems. This forces us to study every detail in our notes and look for potential loopholes in the topics that might catch us off guard during the exams. Our exams consist of 100+ items, and we only have 45 minutes to answer them. Getting an A here is nearly impossible. To make things even harder, my classroom is full of academic athletes and math Olympiads, so I struggle to keep up with them. I hope this video helps improve my performance in the finals. Brilliant video!
Thank you sooo much for thisss, I'll be taking entrance exams in some big colleges. I'll keep in mind all of these techniques and go back here once I pass and ace those exams YAHHHH see yaaah on 2025 ❤️🔥 🙌
1)Active Recall *Gamify Studying,Make Quizlets,Flashcards Or Use Chatgpt to make them *Practice Past Papers Constantly *Feymen Technic: Teach Someone The Topic Or Use Phone Recorder) 2) Spaced Repetition *Do The Past Papers And The Topics 3 Times Constantly And 2 Days Later Again Do The Same Thing Over And Over 3) Priming *Close your eyes and visualise everything *Listen Lofi Music(I prefer lofi Quran As A Muslim) 4)Take Breaks And Naps Accordingly
I realized that I already knew these techniques and I was also doing these at some time, the only problem is that I was procastinating😅 . Thanku so much btw for reminding me again and giving ke motivation❤
If you wanna ace your exams, theres only one best thing which is doing practice questions. The reason is your actually doing what youre going to do in test and it makes you more familiar with the questions.
okay, but i think watching videos is NOT a waste of your time. they would effectively work if you're studying difficult concepts. flashcards for me could stump my brain especially if there is a lot to memorize. from personal experience, where i only used flashcards, its good for short term memory like quizzes but it could significantly drag you in your exams if you didn't take the time to understand the material. videos can give you a broad overview.
I cannot tell you how much active recall actually helps- I studied for my GCSEs in one month and managed to get As in everything except math where I was just 2% off from an A. Active recall really works if you do it right
Start studying earlier with spaced repetition and active recall, and feel way more prepared than spending the same amount of time cramming the day before 📚🎓
Thanks a lot! It was quite uplifting listening to you n gaining confidence as despite putting in efforts I didn't get the score which I wanted in a recent test.
Collin... Thank you soo much, you are so amazing. I wish you the best in everything that you do because you are my inspiration. One day hopefully I will thank you face to face. Thank you
I am a pre-IGCSE student in Myanmar, and I am not good at anything, but not in my history class! However, I hope the methods that you recommended can improve my education!!!!!!!
Hey Collin, think you could make a video on investing your money towards yourself? Such as supplements, and just useful items that you can get that can improve your looks and lifestyle etc. Maybe even for skincare? Thanks
Wow, I am always amazed by your videos, and I find them helpful and motivating. They have saved me time and I have not forgotten any of them since I studied them. Thank you very much for this help. I am following your channel from Algeria. Please respond to this humble comment.
Hope you guys enjoyed from this video! Let's win together :)

Active recall
- make quizlet or flashcards and "gamify learning"
- Learning curve, knowledge is forgotten unless constantly used
Feynman technique
- Teach information in easy terms to a friend or to no one and record yourself
Spaced repetition
- works well with active recall
- Want to be able to do a "quizlet or homework" 3 times, spread between 3 different days
Priming
- Visualize, close eyes and think why this is important, visualize you knowing the material
- listen to music, my opinion 40hz gamma music, but personal preference is key
- get your brain excited to study
Optimized breaks
- time spent studying doesnt equal material learned

Qs?
Oh question
lose*
6) is personal opnion btw
Fact:- don't listen( lyrical music) songs listen beats
@WillICode agreed. Its better to use Rain sounds or wind sounds or brown noise/white noise to cancel out outside noise
my alternative is listening to music in a language I cant speak e.g. bossa nova
this video literally save me from my midterm exams, and the way he explains is direct no wasting of time just straight to the point, love it men.
I have 5 weeks until my exams begin, I’ll use this video fully to help me, current grades I’m sitting on from last year is : E in Geography, C in Computer Science, Merit in Business 1, and Pass in Business 2. I’ll come back once I get my results.
@burc4077 How's the prep going?

Collin, ur giving the actual tips that u use. Its so good that even my 1 year old sister knows mechanical engineering!
You’re so good and straight to the point when it comes to what works, ive probably watched 50 videos on studying methods to the point that I spent more time watching them than studying, but there are barely youtubers who get straight to the point. Most of them spit a lot of theoretical stuff that by the end of the video I don’t know what method to follow

Some great stuff in this! I especially like the connection between Ebbinghaus' forgetting curve and active recall :)
🤞🤞🤞🔥
omg thank you so much Collin The Chad, you really helped me with my studies for my psychology exam! Much Love!
Study tips that actually work
1. Active recall: remembering what you read , make it like a game
Make a fun quizlet
Use chatgpt for questions
Study Past papers
2.Feynman technique:
Teach things u read
3. Spaced repetition:
Read ur notes,quizlet, past paper with this technique
This improves long term memory with relaxed way
Do it 3times... In 3 days
Defeat the forgetting curve with spaced repetition
4. Priming + optimized breaks
Manipulate ur own mind to feel more focused
Close ur eyes for 30 seconds and visualise why u r studying this, why it is important to be an academic weapon
Listen music
Time studying ≠ knowledge
Take naps/ NSDR (non sleep deep rest)
Bye bye 👋🏻🫂

@@IntellectualChad Thanks bro ❤️
thanks for your tips!! its helped me a lot ngl!
I love how you dont beat around the bush
I am going to follow these tips and I have mid terms in less than a month....

Great advice! Loved it!
guys any music can work, calming music does not get me focused so i listen to metal or like clairo n stuff like that! so it varies
Hopefully I ace my exams
Not all heroes wear capes
🤣🤞
Also asking for counterarguments about the topic using generated promps helps similarity as with the questions ( works for theory)
Taking my structural analysis exam next week aiming for 80% will update u guys.
