📚Attention All Studyblrs📚

It's okay to be bad at something new. Normalize people who want to keep trying without them feeling ashamed for being bad at it.

121 days left

So, I missed yesterday because honestly i didn't have that much time to even write a study post because of the computer project but now it's done and I'm so damn relieved like gosh this was a nightmare!

Anyway, I cleaned my desk (made a cardboard shelf to arrange my books) and prepared a study plan for my term exam this month end. (Honestly I'm nervous.)

Today was exhausting but atleast we get a 4 day break till Tuesday because of Eid-ul-adha and gosh am i dreading the coming Wednesday, we have so much due then.

I didn't do much today, just completed my business studies assignment. Now, I'm gonna make a list of my assignments and tests due on Wednesday...

Assignments:

Computer (the hardest one)

Arabic (kinda easy)

English seminar

Right and I have to do my own studying... looks like it's gonna be toooo productive and my plans of reading a novel just went out the window T-T

I think nobody says this, but it's completely okay to take up what you actually want as a major. It doesn't matter if people tell you that you have the capability to do more or that you don't. If you want to do a particular major. Go for it. And I'm telling you, you'll definitely ask yourself, "Am I doing this right?" but I think it's worth following something you're passionate about. You don't have to give justification for doing what you love.

Exam Revision Progress

I swear, sometimes revision is the most exhausting phase in any high school year T-T

Please don't mind my messy notes, for some reason my brain cannot just process neat notes. It's like we're enemies but nevertheless, I managed to finish quite alot and tomorrow is another long day :")

What to do during breaks? (as in no school)

In terms of preparing for the next semester or year…

Hey Anon! :D

How To Productively Use Time During Breaks For Preparing

These are some tips that I've used after experimenting with a lot of things

___________________

Not More Than 2–3 Hours

I recommend this because you have a high possibility of burning out during school weeks if you even study during breaks. So, this is why just three hours is more than enough. Spend your time enjoying too.

Concentrate On Basics

This is one of the best ways to spend your breaks. If you're weak in a particular subject [Mine was Accounts], I spent my summer and my term breaks strengthening my accounting basics.

It helped so much when school started because everyone was trying to catch up on the advanced topics, but I could straightaway start with the year's materials. So, build your basics or revise that year's topics. Most of the subjects are just built in layers. So if you learn something in junior year, then it will likely appear in senior year but a bit more advanced.

Watch Concept Videos [Basics or Coming Term/Semester]

You could go through the syllabus for the next term or year and, based on that, watch videos related to that on YouTube. You can first go through the coming year's topics, and then you can decide if you're confident with new topics or if you still haven't figured out the basics. But these really help.

Prepare Cheat Sheets In Advance

If you get your hands on the coming year's textbook, then go through the chapters and write all the formulas or theorems [Shorten them]. Those are your cheat sheets for the whole term/year. Great for revision. You can even start practicing with this, but it's good to have these cheat sheets.

Complete Language Papers

I had two languages all throughout high school. And this trick always worked for me. A week before school starts, I'd literally sit and complete reading through my English and Arabic textbooks. I didn't do the exercises, but I completed all the lessons and sometimes even had short notes of the story ready. It doesn't take much time to complete your language syllabus. I always recommend this.

Tackle Your Grammar

Take it a step further [if you want] and revise or learn new grammar topics. I say this because, honestly, grammar takes some time to soak in, so by the time school starts, you'll have confidence with your language papers. Which honestly makes your work easier in the long run.

Improve Math [If You Have A Number Based Paper]

If you have any paper that is number-based, then work on your mental math. Practice with it. It helps during exams and saves a lot of time. Literally. Especially if you're not allowed to use a calculator. Memorize the square and cube roots from 1 to 10. Or anything else that matters.

_______________________

Do take time to rest because, honestly, this is the time you'll get to rest. So, enjoy too xD

Other than that, I hope this helps you :)

Weekly Reading Challenge!
