i'm kind of a slow learner and i don't understand concepts as fast as other people but its my childhood dream to do medicine so i'm doing bio HL and chem HL, but do you have any tips?
@@user-wd2fg4ur2f please don't take both at HL. seriously. you will still be able to do medicine with only 1 of those at HL. doing both is just way too much content, especially if you don't understand them very quickly. you will get so overwhelmed (i know this from experience)
For example when you made the « ANKI » Study Block, it’s 3 hours, do you go 90min + 10 min break twice or you do flashcards the full 3 hours without a break?
I'd say def take a break when doing flashcards, and any other type of revision except for timed past papers. The number and length of breaks that you take is really up to you, but as long as you can keep it sustainable and not burn out, then you will be fine.
Thankyou so much for this video, I just have two questions… how long before mocks did you start studying? For example if mine start at the end of August and then my finals are end of October. Also, where would you recommend I find topical past paper questions? ⭐️
I'd say start as soon as you can - I think as long as you have your IAs and EE out of the way, then you probably have enough free time to start studying for mocks. If you don't have these out of the way, they are the priority, so you only really need to spend a couple of weeks on mocks. Not sure where to find topical past papers anymore, but look it up and I'm sure you can find some! Good luck with exams!
If I want to revise the whole syllabus for exams, do you think 2 months is enough time or should I maybe do it my whole last semester of 12th grade so I have more time
I think start studying as early as reasonably possible. If you are still finishing off IAs and stuff, then focus on that. Once those are done, I think you should be ready to start studying. Use your mocks as a way to get into the routine of studying, and then just continue that till finals.
Ah sorry - this is my room from home, not my college room. I go to Clare though, and many rooms at Clare are actually bigger, although ofc won't have a large closet or double bed.
Hi Markos, thanks for this. It really grounded me and gave me clarity to prepare for my IBDP final exams.
IBDP 😭😭
Love your videos!
Glad you like them!
Thanks, this is really helpful!
If you have any questions, let me know here!
@@kenta7588 I'm just using the Apple calendar app, but you can use anything - google calendar works the same!

This video was really helpful. May I know the application that you used to make your timetable because I could not find anything remotely close to it?
this is google calendar :)
Yeh, google calendar is fine. I use apple calendar, but it's pretty much the same.
oh, looks similar to it then haha, I was mistaken@@MarkosDrakos
