My grades and information retention have increased greatly after watching your videos. Thank you for all the tips you share, they help immensely:)
Can you recommend me some of his vids which guide us on information retention? And basically doing well in college?
I'm struggling 😩
Love to hear it 😍
@@agentsarcas6891 Please me too!!

Gotta use every tip i can wish me luck please bro
I'm in class 8th
*1. Simplify the concept-* Break it down so that even a child can understand it.
*2. Associate the idea to something similar-* Find prior knowledge you have that is similar to the idea. For this, use:-
*Familiar Imagery-* Real life based examples (of different things) which helps you understand the concept better.
*Analogy-* Imagine real life based examples (of that particular topic).
*Story-* Associate that imagery example to something similar. Example- cigarette to straw.
*3. Create resources-* Make flashcards, notes, mindmaps, etc.
Are there other steps?
how to carry out association effectively
step1: break it down so that even a child can understand(replace complex language with basic language) and summarize(ideally into a sentence)
step2: find similar prior knowledge that links with the topic e.g imagery, analogies, and stories (the more of each the better)
step3: create resources using this technique (flashcards, notes, mindmaps)
I did this naturally as a kid. As the teacher was talking I would doodle and scribble while following along. One time he got mad and called me out, I was able to answer the question no problem, he was stunned and kinda berated the class for not getting it (which isn't cool, made me feel bad cause I was just chillen), then later in school I got in more and more trouble because of my doodles....even though my grades and scores were always high...they didn't care that my process worked for ME, they wanted me to conform to what they perceived to be the adequate mode of learning. I.e. staring directly at them, only writing down exactly what they write. (That's fucking stupid.) Anyways. They eventually beat it out of me.... And now I have to relearn those skills... I wish I hadn't lost them. But this video is great, and I love everything about it. Great work.Thank you for making this 🙏💜🔥 "Imagination is more important than knowledge" -Einstein
Isn't tirirng to doodles and listen to teacher at the same time
@@user-ne4zc5ey3w not for me 🤷. The trick (for me) wasn't to focus so much on what I was drawing, just let the pen go and see what happens. A doodle can be literally anything. Don't think about it, just let it flow.
dope, imma use that in uni.@@augiemay8677
have you tested yourself for ADHD
Quick quiestion: wouldn't you worry about making the information TOO simple? a lot of the time jargon/key words are what gets the marks in exams, so if those aren't included in your revision, would you not risk losing those marks?
Read the textbook a good no. Of times and pick up key words, then try to write or think about the topic in a way which is easy yet satisfying using the key words u picked. This way u will remember it better. Also another tip is to note down the name of topics in a separate sheet and act like u are teaching it to someone, do this after u have done reading.
The process of simplifying isn’t to remember just the simplified version. True comprehension of a subject relies on the ability to explain the meaning of it well. If you can break down the core concept so that someone much younger than you can access that info, you’re more likely to remember it as well.
@@savage_girl_07 I like that idea of writing the main topics on a separate sheet then speaking it as though I'm teaching another. I'll definitely try this
@@BubblyViolin11 but thats not the point in a lot of subjects they require you (especially in exams) to use certain terminology and key words, so simplifiyng it for a child to understand wont work
@@sienna1292 the process of breaking down a complex subject IS what helps with memorization. It’s not the same as rote memory, where you sit and read the same thing over and over again until your brain gets it.
Breaking a concept down acts as a trigger for your brain that allows you to recall the key terms.
In order to break a concept down, you need to have a thorough understanding of what it even is in the first place. Thorough understanding = better recall.
It's best to try to find your learning style, which took me until graduate school to learn. When I was completing my graduate degrees, the thing that helped me take good notes and actually remember information was Flash Cards (you know, those 3x4s or whatnot). My mind seemed to find it easier to digest in small bulletpoints/single points.
I wish I had used the same technique when going through schooling before then. It would have saved me so many hours of studying over the decades.
Im with you!
That method works well for me too, but doesn't work for what I need to learn which is many long detailed lists.
i agree, i dont really agree with all study videos because everyone learns differently, somebody could say this is thr best technique and it may not work at all for some people
Much appreciation to the consistent videos and shorts that you guys have been dishing out, the precision would be the biggest improvement since Mike&Matty! I have a video suggestion, I've been trying to study for the TEAS test fresh coming out of a rut, and I realized I don't have the work capacity that I used to when I stayed in my room studying pharmacology and pathology last summer. Do you have any suggestions on how I can improve my work capacity instead of just trying to study whenever possible?
This could not be more helpful ❤️❤️!!
As a doctor who's passionate about learning and trying to make it more efficient for my upcoming exam , thank you so much for asking different questions than most of us are asking about studying. I think very few people I know actually think about making better notes they instead fixate on how many revisions to squeeze in before exams.
From just the few videos I've watched , I've already realised that I'm a Kitsune and me eating a lot of unbalanced carb heavy foods was messing with my energy levels and because of that my productivity wasn't that great. I also found the grow revision method fascinating and am trying to incorporate it too because I would always pre plan my revisions which would then go down the drain since other things would come up.
Just these realisations have helped SO much !
Good luck with your channel, eagerly looking forward to your future content too ☺️☺️😄
I loved this vid. I hear tons of Active recall, flashcards and the like. I know they are important for retaining and recalling what you studied. However, I always missed the 'first part'. Actually, the process before you start the mentioned techniques. I never learned how to study, meaning how to go through the material before rehearsing.
What a way of explaining with visualization. Thanks. Literally today i officially know how to simplify concepts.
Hey... Can you make a video with an example of law... Since that is a subject a lot of students struggle with.
I absolutely loved this short and sweet video. It was on point and contained good information. Thank you for making awesome content. ❤️
Schools should teach you this kind of stuff. It's very hard to learn how to properly study by yourself, and this kind of video would've been so much helpful back when i was still in school! Thank you for making this
True, there isn’t enough awareness about how many people study in the wrong way; there are several study methods and finding the right one for you may change you academic and professional career
U r a life saver brother❤️❤️ truly speaking, I have seen all the videos of Ali abdal, justin sung and all other. But ur ones helps me a lot without any confusion. You are a true problem solver indeed. Lots of love and best wishes for u...
This is best student channel... I very glad i find it. Before i go medical.. This is very helpful as a pre medical students😊😊😊
thanks dude, you're the best content creator that makes knowledgeable and efficient tips like no others, and it really help me alot, appreciate you brother.
I've always listened this tip of explaining things to a child but no one never showed how I could do it
This channel is a piece of art, thank you guys!
you explained things as simple as it could be taught. Thank you i'm going to implement this in my studies.
What for me always works really well(especially in biology class) is learning the examples. For example we have the topic evolutionary biology since some weeks, and we have to learn many technical terms like what homology means or many types of selection. Instead of learning all the terms I begin with examples that are easy for recognising. Disruptive mutation = two birds of one species who have both beaks, but there are two different types. I am bad at explaining because I am tired and I just want to sleep, but I think it is understandable what I mean :) I think learning with examples make sense, especially when it comes to learning many technical terms.
Very simple. Thank you for making this video! This will totally help me with my anthropology course!
Thanks a bunch Captain Mike, this'll help me to cram more effectively
I love these because it's practical everyone can access dictionary to simplify those big words and everything is atleast related to something else anywhere. This concept is perfect for anyone
Really happy to see you guys rise!!
I just……. This is amazing. I’ve got pages and pages and pages of notes and I feel like I don’t remember hardly any of it. I’ll try this with my next chapter and see how it works!❤
The balloon example you gave was the best, I’m always confused when it comes to anything related the lungs thank you so much simplifying it❤
Thank you for the new tips and keep up I learned a lot from your channel 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🤩
Thank you so much i really needed this
Again this video is a fantastic explanation of a simple but effective approach
I have two words for you: “You’re amazing!” Thank you! I just subscribed. Please make a video on how to efficiently and effectively study for the MCAT and in medical school, if you haven’t already. 😇🙏🏾❤
I was just preparing for my finals! Istg u always post the right time! Tysmm ;))
Wow these are such good ideas tyy
Whoa! I wish I have learned this waay earlier, super useful. Thanks a lot
This video is really helpful for me. When I was taking a finance course, I didn't understand what is their meaning. Therefore I used this technique to change into simple words and remembered them. Finally, I got an A- grade on the Finance exam.😊
Thank you! Been having a difficult time remembering stuff from nursing school, so this should help!
this is crazy helpful cannot thank u enough
thank you so much!
Thanks very much for this efficient tip,
Impressive and effective. Thank you
This is actually so damn useful for students who cannot keep up with the constant "fancy" words. Because such things distrupt the minds from gaining the REAL information.
But sadly we have to study those words to get marks in exams. EXAMS. 🙄
thank you for your wonderful video, i’m used to make associations for everything i learn , but i forget if i don’t go over them. how often do you thing is good enough to review them? i think for me associations are the best way to acquire faster , of course if you enjoy doing it. thank you again , still super videos 👏
Great content. Thank you
Love you guys❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️.....such a useful information.
It would be great if you explain more medical topics like this!
Love your content!!!
Something that helps me a lot is to associate the name of the condition with what could the presentation probably be. Like COPD can be broken down as CHRONIC exposure to irritants like smoking, lead to OBSTRUCTION or constriction of the PULMONARY airways. Now if your airways are blocked you will have trouble breathing i e. dyspnea. And exposure to any irritant will cause inflammation. Now once you have made a base for the information try adding new information associating it what you already know.
Love this
great information
I love this video helped me so much
This is how I learn and I can confirm that associations work. I noticed this in year 8 when I watched a video on learning the periodic table by remembering a story. I have used it ever since 😊
can u share the story u have used to learn the periodic table?
@Regamer YT Ngl, it's been many years, and I don't remember the story well, but there was a chicken that jumped into a car 😅😂. If I find the video, I'll post it here 😊
Edit: The periodic table song helps too if u are trying to learn
And now I will remember COPD for a long time. Thanks for this ! Love from a first year medstudent✨
God your videos help me a lot 😊
Keep up the hard work
Thanks this is a good advice😮😊
I had to learn wheat crop has a variety called Himgiri which is resitant to Leaf and stripe rust and Hill Bunt, so I just put next to it "Whip Him, He'll Bend" and drew a leafy whip with a bending bumbum. One of the best ideas I've had.
Thank you !!
Thank you for watching and supporting our video! 🙏🏼

Not only "how to remember faster", this is also the real how to take a notes. Some people said we should make our notes efficient, but never exemplify and demonstrate that efficiency in their videos. The video duration, which is only 5.25 minutes, shows that you have implemented efficiency in your actions. It's strange that this is something we would do when we were kids: simplify writing and imagine it, but as we get older we forget how to do it.
Thank you so much
Can you share some ideas on how to simply and remember organic chemistry. I'd love a tip on organic chemistry from you.
Thank you ❤️
Late comment, but I had a quick question.
How would you go about categorizing terms and bundling them up in layers like in your previous videos? Say if I had a PowerPoint lecture that focuses on membrane potential, would I just find all the terms that stick out and try to group them from there, or would I group them based on the learning objectives?
Best explanation ❤
I am studying pharmacy and i was panic because of the amount of infos i had to remember for the exam. This method has helped me a lot and i was able to pass all the exam with flying colors.
this is such a great video, thank you !!
Came here to learn how to write notes better. Left with a great understanding of COPD & how to learn more efficiently, Win win
hey! you are so talented.
I have problems with remebering my flashcards.. and the reason for that is I don't simplify the notes enough ! Thank you very much for this video, I'll go change them now.
For anyone interested I'll update the results within next week !
How did it go!
Helloo?
Any improvements?
Hello? It’s been 2 weeks …. Has it worked?
1. association (chunking, visualisation)
-simplify the concept
-associate the idea to smtg similar
-- imagery, analogy, story
THANKS!
Hey guys i am preparing for my medical entrance in india (neet ug) and i really find your videos helpful keeps me very motivated and i hope i can crack it ...lots of love ❤️
You guys are my saviour 🙌 ❤️
🔥🔥 good Job..
Yay mike is back💛💛
the day after tomorrow is the day of my biology and chemistry exam, i’ve been stressing all day cuz i didn’t understand and i find this viseo. hope that this video help me ;)
Great video, thank you!
Thank u so much.♡♡♡♡♡
As a dmd student this really helps
Absolutely amazing. Thank you so much. 2 more semesters in nursing school! Trying to make sure I ace everything.
Nonono these graphs from pulmonology remembered me about those horrible physiology classes I have to went through. It was like a nightmare.
Thanks
This method has helped me pass my APES midterm exam like I can’t remember the nitrogen cycle terms but drawing a simple diagram makes it easier to understand the process more thank you
Great video, thanks for the study hacks!
Inflammation means swelling by the way, but yeah damaged by swelling for sure.
Thank you so much! thrilled to hear that you found the study hacks helpful (Also thank you for the Clarification and You’re absolutely right. Inflammation is a natural response in the body that often involves swelling as one of its characteristics🫶🏻)
Great video
What is the app you're using to draw all of that?
I watched the video in 2x to remember my notes 4x faster ⚡
bro is living in 2030
Super sir👍👍👍
Good level of video editing
So informative
Thankfully, my brain works in Visualization so taking notes or just understanding is easy for me
Thank you
This is exactly how I review for exams lol. I relate concepts to personal knowledge / experience / impressions. Even tho it's totally unrelated, for me, it works. For example, I have to remember a bunch of republic acts, this number arrangement reminds me of this thing, or it has lots of 6 so I just associate it with illuminati or whatever.
Yea but what if you are studying engineering and have to calculate a lot how to associate and chunk or when you have to learn theoretical concepts and transfer them to math tasks
Thanks! What’s the book you’re reading in the Thumbnail?
note to self: tips for your future course!!!! simplyfiy it dont use such big words
Love this channel . Tonight going to social detox challenge for 30 days. I will be back right after 30 days . Miss this channel already.❤❤❤
goodluck!! lmk how it went
As someone who already completed dopamine detox, I can say it works 100 % .
I quitted social media and video games for 30 days and i did journaling and self reflection thing and i can say it really works and you can change your life.
What is the application you used to draw the visual of the lungs
It was perfect. How I can read philosophy and linguistics that aren't really specific and obvious?
I just figure out.. why it takes me so long to understand and remember the topics. Thanks! im sure ill be doing better in my next Exams. !
How would we go about studying this??
What is your technique of the text you use in RUclips videos. Please give full information about the pop up messages you use.
Thank you now my brain understand 😂
Lovely videos
Where can I get the cloud transition in your video I need it for my school project?
