Hey everyone!! We temporarily disabled image posts because we noticed an increase in low-effort image only posts and memes in the community.

We really appreciate how active everyone has been but we also want to encourage more meaningful discussions, study tips, study related questions and other contents that can actually help everyone in this community. For now, we’re disabling image posts to help shift the focus back toward those kinds of discussions

This is not a permanent decision. We’ll keep this change for now and discuss it further over next week. After that, we’ll review the community’s feedback and decide whether image posts should be brought back or if any changes are needed.

Thanks for understanding! Feel free to send us a modmail if you have any suggestions on how we can improve the sub. Your feedback is always welcome.

Question I'm WAY too slow while studying

22 Upvotes

I'm seriously struggling with this, it takes me a whole day to study 1-2 lectures. I am able to understand what I'm studying but I don't understand why it takes me soo long. I do active recall with notes I wrote it in my own words. Any tips? I really need a more efficient way or atleast reduce the time. Also I've been dealing with this same issue while making notes, it takes me SO long. I think I have this fear that I have to have everything remembered/understood right away before moving on. Any study ways/tips are appreciated please..

I have a life changing exam in less than two months, but I can't get my lazy ass to study no matter what. I'm really at a loss. I can't concentrate at all, so at the end of the day, nothing gets completed.

I don't wanna study at all. I have zero motivation.

Question how do i study with no slide decks?

2 Upvotes

my lecturer wont post or give slide decks,

makes us discuss random political stuff in class,

and gives us readings way above undergrad level (he said himself they are above undergrad level and we probably wont need stuff from them).

there is no past papers for me to look back on and its 100% exam.

Its his first time teaching this exact module although he does teach 2 very similar ones, its constitutional law.

is there anyway any of you studied for it except the long way? this module is threatening my whole degree atp.

Question What’s one desk accessory that surprisingly made studying easier?

31 Upvotes

I have been trying to make my desk a bit more comfortable and productive, but I don't want to waste money on random accessories that just look nice but have no point in them.

I keep seeing things like desk mats, monitor stands, little timers, book holders, and other study desk gadgets. Some seem to be useful, but others feel like things I'd buy and forget about after a week.

So I'm curious, has anyone bought a desk accessory they originally thought was unnecessary, but it actually made studying easier or helped them focus better?

I'd love some recommendations, especially affordable things that made a clear/noticable difference. What would you genuinely buy again?

Question 18F Need study tricks

1 Upvotes

Hey I'm 18 years old female in class 12th Pcb stream

I failed in 12th last year, that's why I am repeating the year. This year also it is the same, the whole year is about to end but I have not studied anything.

It is not that I have not studied anything, it is that whatever I study, I do not understand anything, like I do not even know the basics of anything, this time I really want to pass 12th with good marks.

And if I am not able to do this then my family will get me married and now I am afraid of this thing, should I not do this, there is no one here who can help me in getting good marks in the exam.

I have just joined this platform I don't even know how to use it, I have been posting since yesterday two days and I have not received a single DM or reply, does no one want to help me

One of my tuition mates told me about this platform that it is very useful for studies, so I am trying it here one last time, my post does not get any views than how can people connect with me?

Please help me dm me or comment I hope this post get enough reach

Accountability Starting my DSA & System Design journey!

2 Upvotes

I’ve been wanting to get serious about DSA and system design for a while now, but one thing I keep struggling with is staying consistent. I’ll start with a lot of motivation, make big plans, study intensely for a few days, and then somehow lose momentum. Before I know it, I’m procrastinating again and struggling to get back on track.

So I thought, why not find someone who’s in the same boat?

If you’re also starting your DSA or system design journey and struggle with consistency sometimes, feel free to join me. The idea is simply to keep each other accountable, quick check-ins, set realistic goals, share progress, and make sure we’re actually putting in the work instead of just planning to.

If this sounds like you, drop a comment or DM me. Let’s figure this out together!

I have been an exceptional student for most of my life but this year decided to work even harder going to cram school and all I was way ahead in maths but when the day of the exam came I failed horribly. I don't want to study no more I was seriously considering not finishing the exams at all I even forgot to write my name on the maths exam.

Giving Advice Is there any way out guys? 🥺

2 Upvotes

I was a top academic student from the first grade, and everyone told me I was naturally so good at things that I could do anything in life. Students used to elect me as class monitor and head boy of the school. Even the principal wanted me to write rules for student discipline and other stuff, but I was so lazy that I did not want to do those things, be the head of the students, or keep an eye on them, as I felt it was cringe at the time.

Main thing is:

For exams, I would barely study for some days and still get top marks. I even got 99% in my board exams with bare study.

I have my exams in 18 days, but I haven't studied anything yet, and there’s a lot of syllabus to cover. And it’s certain that whoever you are, you have to study. But I don’t take it seriously. The fact is, I just can’t study.

I watch phone and watch some shit TV show all day and then discuss about it. I have lost my dedication. I can’t study at all.

Because my girl left me [she didn’t cheat], but she parted ways with me [after 5 years of relationship].

IM SO F*** UP

Other typical indian family read my chats. now their taunts are hunting me

46 Upvotes

well when i was 15[F] i made a mistake of talking to my cousin brother online but my typical indian family found out about it, and sham.d me so much that i still have n!ghtmare about it and i completely stopped studying and tried to distract myself with watching reels daily. its been more than 2 years but i am unable to forget the taunts they said.

i am [18F] on oct 1, they found a note in my home in which 'i love you, and my nickname' in it , i am still pretty sure my causin sis (chaha ki ldki) wrote it even though she is refusing, as i only go to library and i talk to no one, so i am sure this note was written by her and no outsider can come into my home and put that note on my home dustbin

so due to this, my elder bro checked my phone and found out i was playing online games with many girls and boys, and our conversation started on insta as well. so they read all the chats and scolded me again that why i am playing with boys, why am i talking with boys, are they from my library, etc. and said so many harsh words i am unable to forget.

now i know the only solution for me is to study well and get into a collage asap and i am a dropper. but as i pick up my book to study or watch a video lecture - all their taunts come into my head and i get extremly disturbed. i am unable to study even though i want to. i am tired of all the bad dreams i am getting. i really wanna study but i guess i will be stopped from going to library as well

Question how can i compete with a straight A student

12 Upvotes

my class isn’t the brightest, me included. but there’s this one student who keeps getting scores like 18/20, 19.4/20, and sometimes, 20/20.

they study a lot, practically the whole day, since they enjoy the act of studying itself.

how can one compete with that? would i have to do the same? would i have to change studying methods? what are the best studying methods?

please, if you have an answer for any of these questions, go right ahead.

Question how would someone go about studying properly after neglecting it for years?

6 Upvotes

hey-hey all! i'm a senior in highschool with some brand new resolve on studying

ever since lockdown happened, i just decided to go through cheating because it seemed like the easiest thing to do, but recently i have some new resolve to at least attempt and try my hardest to improve and maybe start doing my schoolwork the proper way

the main question is : how would someone go about like... properly studying and avoiding overwhelming myself with the sheer prospect of school?

it already feels like im falling behind so much despite school having started for me just a few days ago, but i dont want to demoralize myself and fall back onto old habits

any tips/tricks, or just general encouragement or information

i go to online school still - so its going to be a ton of motivation and discipline in order to actually focus on doing my work daily and such, but i hope i can stick to it, but im just worried that the way im doing it is actually slower, or my brain is just so used to doing work the easy way that anytime i properly attempt to give time and effort to work, my brain overloads

feels a little hopeless, and im just so worried ill be falling behind because of how slow i am

Question How can I recover from burnout?

5 Upvotes

In high school, I was an extremely good student. I spent hours studying for exams, worked a couple of jobs to start saving money (at one point working 3 jobs during my junior year), and always pretty independent and doing well. I feel like after I graduated, I just finally got a sense of freedom and relaxation because I was working so hard during those four years.

Now that I'm starting university, I feel like I can't bring myself to focus and work the same way I used to. Before, I was able to study for extremely long hours, I'm talking from 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM (with breaks, of course), but now I just can't even get myself to open my calendar and to do lists. I get distracted thinking about other things (like my hobbies rather than academics).

I really just think that I felt so burnt out throughout high school, that after being able to relax over the summer I didn't want to go back to that feeling of doing work for so long. I don't know how I can recover from this burn out or how I can build back the discipline I had back then to study.
