So, what do I mean by using multiple senses? These senses usually employ in multisensory learning as visual, auditory, kinesthetic, and tactile – VAKT (i.e. seeing, hearing, doing, and touching)
Some may like to say the words out loud, some may like to hear them and many would prefer to write it down, some like getting hands on work and of course, depending on how you learn, they'll work for you but recently I've been using this method to study and it's so damn helpful.
The method I use is something that is applicable to mostly all subjects except maths and other subjects like physics or chemistry .
All you have to do is first you'll read the content then by looking at the content, you'll make notes about it. Draw small doodles related to it or draw a cycle of the content. Visualize the material! Then, you'll listen to the lecture notes or any videos about the content. And write more notes about it if you've missed any points! Then when you get the grasp of the material, you'll close the notes and you'll explain it to yourself aloud. Your voice needs to be loud and clear so you can hear it yourself. Then repeat! The more times you repeat explaining it to yourself, the better. Do it until you feel like you know the material well enough!
How does this help?
It uses the three main senses used for studying together which creates stronger connections in the brain
You're likely to remember the content for a longer period
Information will come rushing back in a matter of minutes if you had paid attention to it.
It helps you to remember main keywords easily
Enhances creativity
Is an active study method so you need to pay attention otherwise you won't be able to do this.
Hope this helps! Feel free to change this according to your needs. These methods can be experimented with! :)
So, there's literally only 4 months left which is almost 130 days and I want to start studying more and actually do something in these months. The worst thing is that I have hardly 5 months for my final exams and damn I'm scared so... I'm gonna do this. I'll be better.

What's your fav subject in economics? Btw I looove your blog ◍•ᴗ•◍
Hey dear Anon :)
Well I'm glad you like my blog :D
And that's a tough question not because i like everything but because I absolutely have a love-hate relationship with economics. It's made me cry so badly but somehow I love how tough it is too...
I kinda like Microeconomics (we had this in junior year), Consumption analysis, Production analysis, Distribution analysis, Market structure, Pricing. These are some of my personal favourites, if i had to choose Macroeconomics topics, I'd go with types of economies, employment theories, law of markets and obviously Keynesian economics because that guy doesn't let me live T-T
I guess that's it. Thanks for the ask :)
When you're studying, it is advisable to take a break. I don't mean breaks which last around 5-15 mins. I mean breaks that last for 20 seconds.
Why 20 seconds?
Recently, i have discovered that when you're studying for long hours or even short, our brains are exhausted by the time we complete even a single chapter. It has too much of information to actually process it so i always use this method.
When you complete a topic, small or big. Just close your eyes for 20-30 seconds and lean back on your chair and calm your breathing. Process the information. Let everything sink in. Take out the tension. DO NOT TAKE YOUR PHONE. And then after those 20-30 seconds, just glance through the topic before moving to the next one.
How does this help?
Boosts attention.
Allows you to calm down from overwhelming emotions
Helps you process better.
You're likely to remember it more.
Helps you to study for longer hours.
Hope it helps! :)
enough of pretty aesthetic notes, i want messy, shitass handwriting, chaotic notes only you can understand
I'm tired. Gosh. I've been waking up at 6:45 am and then returning home at 5:00 in the evening, it's so exhausting... Anyway, today I:

You need to do it yourself because no one else is going to do it for you.
