    Hey everyone! Welcome back to my channel! ♡
    In today's video, I will be walking you through my typical study routine. I will also be showing everyone how I use the "Active Recall Spreadsheet" method, which is probably the best strategy I've tried thus far to help with memorization :)
    Watch Ali Abdaal explain the science behind his active recall spreadsheet method here!

    I hope you guys enjoyed this video! As I'm a nursing student I use active recall for courses like pathophysiology and pharmacology. It really helps with memorization so please try it out! ❤❤❤

    Hello, Janice. Thank you for sharing your study routine with us.
    *I really like your review method in Google Sheets.* _I suddenly missed being a student._ Anyway, I can still do this whenever we prepare for our (hospital) laboratory inspections. I'm not a medical staff, whatsoever, but I'm a Clerk in our Laboratory so I'm surrounded by medical and technical staff. LOL.
    *_I have most of my personal and professional information on Excel and I love spreadsheets. I'm a tech geek, too - Mac, iPad and Android user and more._*
    Again, wonderful video. Looking forward to more. Cheers! :)

    PD: U r going to get me buy an iPad 2018, it seems good enough for a med student too. No need to buy an iPad Pro. Or what are ur final thoughts about the iPad 6th gen?
    Keep up the good content! And more iPad and study videos 🙌🏼

  • @Hillarygirl21
    @Hillarygirl21 4 роки тому +2

    Just to clarify your routine, usually you write lecture notes/review notes using the annotated PDF's after you learn a topic in class. Then to study the same material you'll only rewrite more notes on the harder topics and just study the easier topics from the notes you've previously taken? Also, for your active recall spreadsheet when do you go about adding in questions for each unit/chapter you've learned? Do you have one spreadsheet per midterm/test or do you do everything in one spreadsheet for the entire semester so everything is in one place for the final exam?
