Your the only studytuber who gives realisitic and different advices
I agree with you!!! 👍🏻
Yes and the best
but still i can't follow em properly😢
Yes ❤❤
Fayeflims is also good
Amy you are one of the best youtubers who films videos about studies,mindsets, and your a lifesaver for me! I have been watching your videos since a long time and never have I regretted watching ur videos
We're all happy to here that!!!
Yesss
I am from India. I was one of the top students a year back, but now I have become a mediocre student. This is because they sent me to a new class with a new set of teachers. I didn't listen to the class properly and even fell asleep a lot of times. I studied just to maintain my reputation before. But now that I've lost all my reputation, how can I regain confidence in my potential and become the same person I was one year back?
Same here
@@Average_sucks 😔
honestly, the same thing happened to me last year in the midterms because I shifted schools and the new school was a disaster but by the end of this year in the annuals, I scored highest in all subjects. This happens because when you were a great bright student you had pressure to maintain that position but once that "title" falls you become like any other student. what I did was to change my mindset and by that what I did was little by little making that "title" a part of my personality. I made progress day by day and tried to avoid bad habits and made it a part of my personality. According to Atomic Habits by James Clear, to make a change in habits we need to make it a part of our identity. I didn't focus on the "97%" instead I focused on the personality which made me a "97%" student.

hi amy, I was wondering if you could do a video about studying at home when it's rlly...not conducive? like if your parents are yelling a lot and you can't focus, or if you have strict parents that don't let you use headphones / go out to study etc.
do this thing ig it'll work
don't talk with em when you're with the books and studying stuff
most problems arrive when we study from gadgets (in most cases), in either case just don't respond to them to show that you are very sincere with your study work
while it may seem that this will develop more problems, parents will eventually understand your sincerity and will stop screaming in a few days after this behaviour
be stubborn with studies
but not to an extent where you will continue studying even when someone is having a stroke just beside you (jff)
hi im also studying from home and i dont know any classmates. what i do when i dont like my surrounding, i try to get into deep focus on what i am reading; it helps a lot. but i dont take my exams when people around are noisy.
The thing I love about her is that she's super realistic and her tips actually make sense. Unlike other studytubers, she doesn't, what should I say aestheticify? (lol) her videos and keep them real. I have a request, can you please make a video on whether some over-hyped stationery items or digital gadgets (specifically apple products) are worth it? Thankyou!
I appreciate your compliment a lot! I never thought aesthetifying things was useful when it comes to school haha. Good idea - I'll add it to my list!
This girl is the only Realistic accademic improvement channel, love your tips and so glad i found you at the perfect time!( Right before finals ended)
Amy........I am left speechless. How do you collect these exquisite academic tips. I have never ever saw anyone else giving this THIS much realistic tips.....
I have been following you for quite a while and I totally see the results in my academic...
Amy is the literal definition of beauty with brains!!
Agreed.
Literally❤❤
Absolutely ! ❤
So true❤
TRUE❤
i swear ive seen millions of note taking videos but none of them said anything important than cornell note taking meathod so happy to be part of the A' team
I love these so much mainly because I’ve already been doing most of them XD a side note as well: remember that your notes are for your future self. I write down the little details that others might not if I think it’ll be useful for my future self. I also like to write the date at the start of my notes for that day so that if someone else needs notes from a specific day, it’s easily accessible and I’ll know what I learned on a given day
Thank you for this , it’s so helpful!
Hi Amy!! Hope you are doing good! I won't add to your points for this video but the content was great! linking everything is definitely going to help in the long run! Anyway, I just wanted to say how wonderful your videos have become, the avatar one was so creative and the editing on this one is amazing! When you said 'A-team' ( 9:12 ), the zoom-in made me audibly gasp! keep being awesome, Amy!
Amy I'm really finding this type of effective guidance everywhere, finally get that 😊
Now one more member to your family 😀
My science teacher asked us to read a whole paragraph saying that it'll come for the exam... But it didn't, imagine all the hard work. And now, our teachers are telling us to read the text book because they're not gonna tell us which of the damn lessons would be coming.
Perfect video!!! So helpful, thank you!!
I like the way u highlight. I did the same way and it's way better than doing the thick one
Hello Amy! Thanks for the tips but I have some questions : How do I read comprehensions faster and answer them well? Also, how do I train myself to write, think and recall faster so that I can complete my papers faster? Also, any tips for SAT English?
Thank you so much!
now I don´t feel bad about my messy handwriting anymore :D tysm for your tips I´ll use them for sure! Have a great day
Summary:
1. Ask for PowerPoint Pages or Printed Notes:
Request PowerPoint slides or printed notes from the teacher to save time during class and focus on understanding concepts.
2. Functionality Over Prettiness:
Prioritize functionality over aesthetic appeal in note-taking. Use color coding sparingly, such as highlighting lesson titles, important formulas, and key concepts.
3. Blind Copying is Okay:
It's acceptable to blindly copy notes when unable to fully engage in class due to fatigue or other reasons.
Don't stress about capturing every detail in real-time; focus on getting the main points.
4. Increase Writing Speed:
Improve writing speed to keep up with the pace of the lecture.
Utilize abbreviations and shorthand to expedite note-taking.
5. Don't Copy Diagrams on the Spot:
Listen and absorb visual information during class, then recreate diagrams later when reviewing notes.
Take pictures of diagrams during class to reference when revising notes.
6. Save Space for Annotations:
Leave margins and space under each topic for annotations from verbal explanations or additional insights.
Prioritize annotating verbal explanations over copying content from the board or slides.
7. Add, Don't Redo:
Continuously update existing notes instead of rewriting them.
Incorporate new information, insights, or references from textbooks, homework, or class discussions directly into existing notes.
8. Efficiently Study Your Notes:
When studying, jump straight into homework or problems and reference notes as needed.
Organize notes visually to facilitate quick retrieval of information.
Create links between notes, homework, and other study materials to enhance comprehension and retention.
9. Study Homework and Bucketed Information First:
Study homework assignments and condensed concepts first before delving into detailed notes.
Utilize highlighting and breaks in notes to aid in studying and comprehension.
10. Beat Procrastination:
Overcome procrastination to leverage well-prepared notes effectively.
Utilize strategies to manage procrastination and maintain focus on studying.
Thank you amy
Hello! I’m definitely going to use your tips, thanking so much for sharing them ❤ I do have a question, just to be clear, do you not take separate notes from your textbook? Sometimes I find that there are topics that weren’t mentioned in lecture but not sure where to add them or relate to
Thanks 💯
hey love your videos they have really helped me in school!
Amy might not be able to reply to you for a while but we're all glad to hear something like that. 😀
thank you so much
Hi! Love your videos! Could you make a video about how to handle sickness? I searched informations on it but, the only thing I found was to relax... I don't have time before a test. Thank you!
Good advice and humorous.
I try :) Thanks!
Most needed❤
Agreed
Hi thanks so much for the tips they're all super helpful :)) I was just wondering whether you think it would be better to type my notes on my laptop or handwrite them? This is for physics, maths and philosophy at A-level btw. Thank you!!
Thanks 🎉
You're Just next level! I love watching your videos nd it gives me lots of inspiration! Tqsm
♥️ tysm :)
love you so much Amy. I am just falling for your tips ,actually my session has just started and I now am a highschool student so that's why I have to write a lot whenever I see your video notification I get very happy because of you only I became A student. Love you sooooo much and thanks for helping me. FUNFACT : I also used to hate physics but slowly getting interest . love from India Shreyasi.🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰❤❤❤❤❤❤💝💖

Recently found your channel. Do you have a video on your history? ie, what is your major at CalTech? Do you have a scholarship? (somebody has to pay for your college). How do you manage your expenses? Do you have a part time job to help pay for things? Did you take dual credit classes in high school so you could enter university as a junior (or at least closer that a newbie freshman)? Have you always been a good student, ie - in junior / high school, or did you have to relearn how to study once you entered college? What are your goals / plans after college? Do you have a job you hope to land, field of interest or general industry you plan to enter or be employed with?
Yes, I checked the 'about' section on your channel, not very informative.
Your study tips, etc. are useful, but I would like some history on how you got to where you are in life.
Me? - I'm 64 years old and going back to community college to study electrical engineering (associate degree).
Already covered these things in videos - please check out my channel! It's important to be able to scope out the resources already available since I don't often have time to link videos directly!
Can you make a video about efficient study methods u used? I feel like idk how to study at all and I want to but I just don’t know
Do share some tips for students preparing for competitive exams.
Hey Amy, do you have tips for studying although you have no tests, assignments and quizzes coming up? its really hard for me to study when I don't have upcoming tests so..
I needed this video so much!!!
It gets so overwhelming now that we have to make all the notes on our own. Before till secondary school we had handmade notes by the teacher and now it's a big switch to do everything from scratch on our own.
Love the tips and I'm happy that I'm not the only one who writes faster than others and have ''doctor's " handwriting😅
Really appreciate your work on this video, god bless ya! 💫
Ps: your voice was amazing in the ending, really nailed the song 💅

Awww thanks so much for your kind words!! Cool you also write fast haha. Glad you liked my voice! Much love ❤

Any tips for the DSAT?
Hi Ms. Amy.....I guess I'm going to have to review this video there is a lot of do's and don'ts ...interesting ...put the page number etc. as one does their reading/research .....do you use the ipad or are you using a binder notebook I don't feel comfortable wring on the ipad.....
note taking in one of my classes (year8) is not really good because we don't have time to write and we don't have books we can take home what would be your reply to that.
i feel like @wAmy and @Ruff are the 2 legends who gives us more productive and efficient study tip..btw i really needed this video
is it useful to take notes on the iPad or is it better on paper?
Hey Amy, I have a question:
If your teachers say that the ppt will not be available for us, what is the alternative?
hii Amy i was wondering if this could be one of your video ideas..
So I just want to know how you can retain your motivation for a long period of time because I often find myself losing motivation to study after I make a academic comeback honestly this has been a really big struggle for me for many years because some how no matter how much I try I always get too confident after I do good on a exam but in the next one I literally fail! (btw i am kinda new to your channel so i am so sorry if you have mentioned any tips regarding this topic before) I mean it's always been I just made a really good academic comeback and I really don't want to screw this up 😥😥😥😥😥😥 but I already feel myself falling apart so I hope you can suggest me any tips
Were sorry to hear about you falling apart. Hope it gets better.
Hiii!! I'm sorry to hear that but I have the perfect videos I've made for your situation:

Can you make a video on how you made sure to stick to 8 hours of sleep?
Amy you are the best 🎉
And I say the same!!! 😊
Agreed
Very great video !!! but I am very confused since my other idol (1st one is Amy) Ali Abdaal explained in his how to study masterclass that active recall and spaced repetition are the best methods of studying instead of writing notes, highlighting or re-reading the content, can anyone plz help me to decide which one is really essential sine I am in my most important academic year just now and would appreciate your kind gesture Ali also provided scientific proofs for proving this so if possible also provide a scientific proof😅
Amy can u pl give me tips on how to study many subjects at once , ( I have 10 )❤❤❤
Hi Amy,
When watching your video, you had mentioned printing out the lecture slides but you were very vague with what to do after you've printed them. Like do you take them to lecture? Do you annotate them. Do you not have to write notes at all since you've already got them printed out? Like how do you implement the printed out notes into studying. I rewatched your video but you didn't really brush up on this. It sounds like an amazing idea but I printed out the lecture slides and im not really sure what to do with them/how to use them . Could you please clarify what you had meant
Thank you.
Hi! I said that printing out the lecture slides will make a subsequent tip easier which is annotating. So yes, just absorb the information in class while following your printed lecture notes and annotating!
@@wamyy5 Thank you so much Amy!! I tried this today and lecture went great! I didn't have to write down long formulas since they were already printed and in front of me. Although others did stare at me like I was dumb bc. The slides were already in the modules, I didnt care bec. I had followed another tip. Which was to not be afraid to stand out in class and not worry about what other ppl thought while working in class. ☺
That's amazing!! SO happy for you!@@user-hp3dh5ph5p
How many hours a day do you usually study?
how about when given a lengthy pdf files full of texts... how do you study??

Nice!!!

Hey Amy,
I have a question,
Since your handwriting is like mine "doctor's handwriting😅", doesn't it affect when it comes to writing subjective exams. Like mostly teachers expect us to write neatly but when i try to write neatly, it starts well for the first page but it takes twice the time i would have needed to write that page with my normal handwriting (i don't know if I'm clear enough here) and then after half of the exam is over my handwriting again goes back to "not so neat one" And the handwriting in the ending of the test looks different from the handwriting in the beginning of the test.
Its so frustrating sometimes because some teachers say i would loose my marks in competitive exam if i keep doing this.
tho I ain't Amy, you can read me
i have faced the exact situation that you've described in your comment
handwriting doesn't matter provided that it's legible for most of the people
while truly shabby handwriting needs to be avoided, you can try to maintain the same handwriting throughout
for example, try to write at a medium pace legibly throughout the exam
and about the competitive exams part,
i think handwriting doesnt even matter much
what matters is whether you're able to read what you've written and others shouldn't find any difficulty reading your handwriting
you can improve by not changing your preferred font style throughout and managing a constant gap between two words
many such examples can be given but it doesn't strike when you write your exams, so it's kinda useless to give them
but i think you get the basic idea of what I'm trying to convey
thank you for reading till the very end
Thanks for the tip, I'll try it out in my next test!
I suggest that you look up the Ultimate Ivy League Guide by Elise Pham of Harvard for the latest & advanced study techniques for getting straight As effortlessly!!!

I have a problem
Whenever theres lec going theres not few things in notes which they give us
So i tried two things
Firstly to write down as soon as i hear those extra things which i feel like will be helpful. And during that process I'm unable to focus on what they sre teaching as I'm writing it down
And secondly i tried that I'll fully focus on lec then write everything down. But for the most part i forget it
And in both the cases it result in watching those lecs again and each of them is of 3 hours
We are given two facilities we have live offline lecs then they upload the same thing on their app
Can you please help me regarding this
Cause it's waste of time its like I'm doing double hardwork
Whivh results in backlog of other subjects and self study
Hey Amy I hope your doing well, I have tried all of those tips but I still get 70's and I'm hoping to increase my grade to 80/90 percent. I have some minor issues when I learn but I'm not so sure how to overcome it and I've never got really an answer from people when i asked for advice. So I'm hoping anyone or Amy can help out perhaps in this situation. My first issue is i tend to find my mistakes and find gaps of knowledge but I don't know how to overcome for instance if i forget some information I'll go over those spaces of knowledge and information I've missed out but i still have them come back on the test and they bring down my grade so it doesn't really help me :( another thing is I've tried all those tips but sometimes they don't work in terms of boosting the mark im sitting in and rather they just stay the same so I'm hoping if anyone has tips as to how I can get my grades to 80/90's? I apologize for the long paragraph but thank you for taking your time and answering my question.
I love you, seriously. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!@=&!¡$& I have been watching your videos since last week because I wanted to improve myself. THE RESULTS ARE DRASTIC OH MY GAWHJWJS The last week we had tons of quizzes, and I only had 1 mistake on EVERY SUBJECT that we had a quiz on in that week !?@?? we have more quizzes to go this week, and I know I'll do incredible! Thank you so much, I've never had this kind of streak before???!?

Sorry I just have to ask...
Beginning of the video: "I got straight As while maintaining 8hrs of sleep"
2.5 minutes in: "So many times I would show up to class running on 4, maybe 5 hrs of sleep..."
??
8 is an average in high school! In college it was average of 7 with rarely less than that :D

@@vaishnavi_sharma9 it's a waste of time.
Love the amazing pointers especially those that target very specific situations that happen often like blind copying! Asides from that I'd like to ask for some tips on how to study for Biology, as it is a content heavy subject I sometimes struggle to memorise key phrases/concepts or link the topics that I have learnt. Would appreciate the help alot 😭 especially because this year I'm taking my graduation exam and the panic is starting to settle in 🥲
Hi Amy, I hope you are well. Can you please make a video about effective study planning? Thanks :) ❤🍓
