Studying doesn’t need to be as hard is it feels: after 5 years in medical school, I just finished my final exams, and this is the method I used to study. I’ve been avoiding lectures since my first year of medical school, and using just one notebook, I’ve managed somehow to learn and memorise everything I was expected to know to become a doctor. If you also struggle with memorising facts and mnemonics (like me), hopefully this will offer an alternative! Let me know what you think! Thanks for watching, and best of luck with any exams you have, may your university studies always be as un-stressful as possible 🩵

I personally believe memorising something comes from passionate interest. It’s like being able to promptly recall a song melody and its lyrics; there’s no coercing or manipulation involved, only passion. Many people make the mistake of reading a non fiction book 📕 once then put it aside hoping that the facts will present themselves in their memory. Learning is to revisit voluntarily the interesting facts again and again till they become second nature and began to make logical sense being interconnected to each other and to new facts. Never think you’re too old to revisit previously learned facts and brand new ones

@dancingphoenixart 2 ай бұрын

About passionate interest, it's not only that you voluntarily go back & revisit facts, a huge part of it is that when you have an emotion connected to information, you're telling you're brain that it's important and it will therefore prioritize it. When you feel joy, anger, sadness, frustration you're much more likely to remember. Whereas when you're feeling bored, you're telling your brain "don't bother with this". This is something we can actively influence to some degree, we can decide to be more interested in something. Find things in a topic that are interesting to us and connect those. Or transform it in some way that makes it interesting, make a story, joke, insider or image about it, whatever works for you. Visualizing it. Make a song. Do whatever you like, just make it interesting for yourself so that it sticks way more easily

@jimmertrey2334 2 ай бұрын

No the passion creates focus and repetition. It’s like when a kid can remember every word on a 13 song CD yet the can’t recall 11 x 15. They have listened to the CD 400 times, they have only done 11 x 15 6 times in their life. It’s simple

@shuttzi9878 2 ай бұрын

It works for most people but remember that there are also those who have ADHD and no matter how many times they practice your suggestion, it just won't work for them. Otherwise great advice, you're right. That's how our brain retains information, without the emotion there's no signal for the brain to remember anything.

12:17 Although I have engaged in this process by using textbooks and Wikipedia articles when I have been really interested in a subject or romanticized the content at the beginning of a semester in college and graduate school, it is a most inefficient use of time when the course instructor is asking pretty mundane and rote questions on assessments. There are ways to build focus and memory beyond the use of mnemonics and memory palaces. Also, as you said, mental stability and stress levels play such a big role in learning and retaining information.

Thank you for your videos about learning and studying. It's not the usual tips but really digs deep into how our brain works. I also find memorizing hard and remember the things I learn through how I understand them. It also makes sense that our brain isn't empty to pour the information in. It is active, not passive. We already know things; we just need to learn how to relate the things that we need to know to the things that we already know.

@tehreemazmat2929 2 ай бұрын

This is SO true for doctors. When we are reading, the prompt is the "heading" of let's say "glaucomas". But in REAL life, the patient is going to present as "pain in eye" or painless peripheral visual loss which can take you into completely opposite areas of differentials. Text books need to flip the formats on their head and group diseases as for example "painless, vs painful" as you said. I figured this out on my own a couple of months back because i too struggle with senseless mnemonics. Mnemonics arent natural OR patient centered. Doctors need to be able to make intelligent connections, not jut memorise without pathophysiological context or without understanding how the patient experiences the disease. We have AI for that. In the text books, they go from the tree trunk toward the branches but in REAL clinical settings we'll have to trace our way back to the trunk FROM a branch. They need to design textbooks in a "presenting complaint and its differentials" centered approach to create better diagnosticians. You're a bit of a genius. Whatever neurodivergence you have it has made you really good at insight and pattern recognition and you have the language skills to "capture" those ideas and present them

wow. Every so often, I return to this area of KZfaq (medical youtuber/productivity/learning channels) but often find the same ideas regurgitated with nowhere near enough substance to warrant the length of the videos (which are themselves often simply another part of the endless 'edutainment' content that many of us, myself included, can't help but drown ourselves in to lull ourselves into feeling we've achieved something). This video, however, was so well thought-out and contained so many paradigm-shifting ideas, it must be one of the best videos on this topic I've seen in a long while (and might be my favourite video of yours I've seen so far). As a side note, the visuals on this video were phenomenal. I wish all KZfaqrs could learn a thing or two about visual presentation from you - clear and straightforward and primarily using visual aids to help with either 1) understanding or 2) engagement through adding a touch of character, charm or fuel for the imagination, while resisting the temptations of flashy or over-stylised visuals (the KZfaq equivalent of those spinning explosive powerpoint animations haha) that are so common (and so unnecessary) in these types of videos. I don't know how much you planned the whole video in advance but it all comes together really well :) I've been interested for the past year or so in optimising memory/learning strategies, so a lot of the basic principles addressed here I'm already familiar with to a degree, but something about the narrative of the presentation and seeing these principles applied in a specific context ('memorising' the inhuman amount of information tested on medical school exams) was so incredibly useful. I've left this video feeling inspired to apply some of the same approaches to my own projects and for once, actually having some idea of where to start. Thank you so much for all your work!

That is why it is so important for us to actually READ the sources and the original texts of all the (classical) philosophers. I can google any argument in any of Plato's dialogues in under a minute but I have never learnt as much as when I had to read through every single book of the "Politeia" for a seminar.. so thank you for this informative and helpful video!

Absolutely unshareable tho. I sometimes doubt this technique when i see others just mark their lecture slides or type an abridged version of them into a Gdoc. I do that too, but not for the kind of classes where i know i need to write a final exam from memory.

Your videos have helped me rethink my honestly stubborn and ineffective ways of traditional learning that I was taught were the "best" ways. Many of the methods you've mentioned I've tried intuitively but was always afraid that I might be doing "wrong" because it wasn't systemically prescribed. Would love to see a detailed video on the "art of note-taking" i.e., the times when it is truly effective. I've found that I rarely refer to my notes as I do not trust my previous self in recall and always refer to Sir Google or directly from the text again - and yet, can't seem to shake off the habit of note-taking, it's been so deeply ingrained. However, rare "pearls" especially when it comes to unique ways of explaining a concept (usually from a professor or preceptor) is the only time notes are important, because this information is rare and non-replicable. My uncontrollable desire to take meaningless notes could use an Elizabeth-style video explanation :)

I read in a book that the art of paraphrasing has been lost because of the act of memorizing. If one paraphrases coherently it shows a complete, yet personal understanding of a subject. That just stuck with me.

You must be a genuis. Thank God for your life. The secret as you said is try to research find in the process you stick the information in ones brain. One will connect known to unknown. Good one. Thanks

can you tell me summary of video, and does it really helpful?

Another great video. Very interesting technique. I really like how you learn about the subject to find the answer instead of just finding the answer. Really smart. Holistic learning. Haha. Anyways, thanks for the video.

There are things that I choose to memorize and things that i have to fully understand,so I draw a line to have two sides one on the same page,one side it's for things that I just have to memorize and the other side is for depth summarized information which i have to fully understand. Great technics i have to get one or two to add them on the ones am currently using. Thanks for the video

I can see how this method makes sense and I even use some of it in my studies. Although, I’m quite hesitant about implementing this as a whole. My university and professors prepare questions that specifically cater to how they teach the material rather than knowing the topic on a wider spectrum. And even in board exams we’re faced with the same issue as aspiring physicians of my country. So I’m terrified of not checking lecture notes. If anyone else’s experiencing a similar situation as me and if you’ve tried this method, I’d love to hear about your experience. Great video as always🙏

I actually thought I would just skip the entire video and summarize it myself or maybe even get distracted but somehow I watched the entire video? Its a very rare for me to do that lol, I love this account sm.

Think this video just caused a turning point for me. I'm a psychology student (coincidentally working on memory right now, so this video is helping with not only my study style but also my coursework) and I've been trying different methods of taking notes to see what works and what doesn't. So far, the most effective thing has been summarising lectures with multiple different ink colours so I can quickly flip through to find information I need. As for getting it to stick to my brain reliably I've been a bit stuck - there are random chunks that I remember because I'll get very interested and explain the concepts to my partner or friends. But while watching this video I got a piece of paper, went back through my notes and made a list of all the things I 'ought' to know for the unit. No notes/explanations, just names of theories, concepts, phenomena, and models. The notes I've taken are great for if I need a quick reminder of something specific and don't have the time/energy to comb back through the source material, but I feel like this list is all I really need to learn the content. I've been trying to simplify the content without losing important details (because I can't memorise a whole textbook cover to cover, unfortunately) and this strategy clicks well in my brain.
