I overcame my ADHD with THIS study method! How do Harvard and MIT students study? How to effectively memorize without forgetting? The most effective evidence-based memorization method. Why memorization is key for studying, even if you're a STEM student. How to use Anki?
▬ In this video ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
I walk you through several different study methods. Most of them are not very effective, yet commonly used. They are especially ineffective if you struggle to focus for an extended period of time. The last method which I talk about is based on the active recall and spaced repetitions methods. The most famous software which helps you work with these algorithms is called Anki.

▬ Anki ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Anki is a program that makes remembering things easy. Because it's a lot more efficient than traditional study methods, you can either greatly decrease your time spent studying, or greatly increase the amount you learn. The possibilities are endless:
- Learning a language
- Studying for medical and law exams
- Memorizing people's names and faces
- Brushing up on geography
- Mastering long poems
- Even practicing guitar chords!

Feynman Technique is one of the powerful methods for me. Explaining some concepts to your imaginary partner helps enormously. It was mind blowing because i can remember all points on my paper that i read 4 years ago and it helped me to learn over hundreds sheets of paper in few days and to remember all these things. I got the best grades and its good for speaking exams.

Hi Samuel, I really loved the video! I think you should do a video on studying and understanding in STEM for the following reason. There is a huge landscape of established study channels on KZfaq already giving more or less the same tips (Active recall, spaced repetition etc.) and that is perfectly fine because essentially that is what all memorizing techniques boil down to. However these channels are almost exclusively run by people from the medicine (and sometimes maybe law) field like Ali Abdaal etc. which can be a bit frustrating if you are a STEM student looking for study methods. Like you said in the video, memorizing is also an important of studying for STEM but KZfaq is already really saturated with content on that particular part of studying. On the other hand there is almost no content on the understanding part of studying (especially for STEM) so I think it would be great if you could fill that gap in future videos. Congratulations on the rapid channel growth btw! PS: please don't mind my English, I am not able to articulate myself really well but I hope you can understand my point.

As most comments refer to the problem about Anki in STEM fields, I thought I just put my two cents in on how I approach this issue. I am still figuring out what the best approach is to use Anki/Notion in statistics, but this is how I currently do it: 1. Understand and write Flashcards in your own words Sounds self-evident but it’s a huge difference to just parrot what you just read or to be able to explain it intuitively. When I feel that I got a concept, I write a flashcards where I formulate a question to the concept. The answer is written using MY OWN words, not the one from the text book. This is my approach to make sure I don’t just copy what I’ve read. 2. Feynman technique when repeating flashcards When I go through the cards I always answer the card using the Feynman technique, ie explaining the concept it simple terms/as if you were talking to a student. Since I write a question on each flashcard, I automatically approach the answer as if I would explain it to someone else. I subdivide larger concepts into smaller questions. One card is about why a concept is needed, the other is about its formula etc. This is just my way of using Anki for quant. I would appreciate to read about your approache!:) Sometimes I really miss the big picture which is why I currently try to help with mind maps or notion, but I haven’t found the perfect path yet.

Hi Samuel, I am so glad I bumped into your videos. I was searching "How to learn math" if you can believe it :) So I think youtube algo is starting to work!! May I ask a silly newbie question. I had learned that one's mental energy is the best at the beginning of a person's day (or when they have had a great full rest) and then the energy drops off. Would you say it is best to quiz oneself with Anki when one has almost exhausted one's mental energy? Or perhaps the other polar strategy of studying Anki flash card as early as possible in the day? Inquiring minds want to know! Thank you for sharing so much of your knowledge so selflessly!!

Hi Samuel, Great video as always! I noticed you mentioned Anki for studying advanced mathematics. I have been using Anki for my computer science classes a lot and had great success with it, but i was always unsure as to how i would use Anki for advanced math. What did the flash cards for an advanced course (like diff-geo) look like? Did you put theorems on there, definitions, practice problems? I'd love to see some examples!

@SamuelBoschMIT Жыл бұрын

Hey Felix, thanks for the comment! Yeah, it's a bit tricky. I mostly used it for memorizing theorems (which is something that most modern universities don't really require anymore). But depending on your classes, there is surely also a lot of stuff that you want to remember long-term, so you might wanna add these things as littler reminders of different methods

So here's my two principles for learning anything (academic or intellectual stuff obviously)... As you have already described in the video, I'm too gonna divide learning into two core components 1) Understanding: Teach it aka "the feynman method" 2) Memorisation: Use Active Recall and Spaced Repetition, for that "anki" will do the job for you I also highly recommend the book "Ultralearning" by Scott Young. That dude has learnt the entire MIT EECS sequence in an year or less. He has mastered quantum mechanics in a month or so and has learnt a dozen of languages (including mandarin chinese 😜). For those who want to build habits, Atomic Habits by James Clear is the definite source for you. Apart from that always keep errata of anything you are using for studying. This thing alone has saved hundreds of my hours 😅. Happy Learning ❤

I wouldn't do that, while it might help during hardcore studying sessions. You are wiring your brain to be hooked to an addictive substance that artificially releases dopamine (why you feel so good and focused on it). On top of this, the drug company knows this and would like you to become a regular user for increased profits.

@MrLethalShots Жыл бұрын

@@jbouchard1780 Thank you for your input. I want to say though that my concentration has improved by leaps and bounds since starting meds. I consciously chose this as I was at breaking point before being diagnosed and didn't know what else to do. The meds are not perfect, not by a long shot, but they essentially saved my masters. I did develop some dependence and am working to stay aware of it. However, I would not say I am addicted, thankfully. I had no problem giving meds up for the summer when no university work was required. That said, if there are better alternatives out there I will gladly consider them as well. I have already managed to significantly reduce my dosage just by eating a more considered diet (high-protein breakfast, more omega-3s, only whole grain carbs, less processed foods and no added sugars, flavors, preservatives etc.).

As someone who possibly has adhd and is having to juggle 2 different types of academics together (I want to switch back to stem from business, my undergrad is in business but I've always wanted to go for econ lol), I find switching from one flow to another very hard. For the past 4 months I've just been going through two calculus books and can barely switch from this to my taxation course materials even if I NEED to. And if my brain says I have to complete this and this before I can do anything else, I just gotta hope my brain allows me to finish those otherwise I wouldn’t be able to start anything else. Like rn I tried to complete reading a chapter and lost attention or motivation and am just roaming around without actually trying to complete it or starting to do something else. Gosh maybe life wouldn’t be this hard if I didnt possibly have adhd.

Hey Samuel, This video was really great! However, I think it might still be worth mentioning that if people really struggle with focus they should first make sure to fix their lifestyle, i.e. stopping watching tictocs all day and other things that train short attention spans. However, if it can't be fixed by lifestyle, people shouldn't hesitate to see a doctor and check if they might need medical help, because in many cases of ADHD the dopamin system is actually not well regulated and medication can actually help to restructure the brain through neuroplasticity and build motivation and ability to focus in the long run. Talking about medication, I'd be interested on your insides how commonly smart drugs are used at elite Universities. Maybe worth a video:)

@SamuelBoschMIT Жыл бұрын

Hey Jonas, this is indeed a very good point. In this video, I solely focused on the best study method. But there is so much more to fixing than just the study method alone. Yes, I do think indeed that I should make a video. I will need a few days to prepare this because I don't want to point out just obvious stuff but actually wanna provide new insights. Thanks again for the suggestion! I am also debating whether or not I wanna talk about medications. It's a bit slippery topic, as I cannot provide medical advice in a video. But maybe I can talk about it indirectly in some way

Mind mapping is actually one of the best techniques for studying and learning. If it's not effective for you, you're most likely doing it wrong. The mind map shown in the example is actually an ineffective one that is not done very well. The study that proves retrieval is better than mindmapping has the flaw of whether or not the students were taught how to correctly mindmap. From Bloom's Taxonomy, memorization is the lowest order of learning that you could do.

@SamuelBoschMIT Жыл бұрын

The one shown in the example is just some random photo from the internet. I agree that it’s not a bad memorization technique. But it will never do a good job for long-term memorization (unless combined with active recall and spaced repetitions)

@@SamuelBoschMIT Mind mapping isn't used for the purpose of memorization. It is to create a flow of how your mind relates, groups, and create relationships between the topics. If you have properly mind mapped and fleshed out this process, most of the times you don't have to focus purely on memorizing isolated information as it'll be connected to each other.
