Spoiler: Have you acknowledged the disclaimer?

Memory​

Spaced repetition - Review material over a long period
Active recall - Test yourself without notes, past papers mog hard
Chunking - Break large bits of information into smaller, understandable batches

Spoiler: Recommend Nootropics (DYOR, at your own risk)

Piracetam
Donepezil

Focus​

Pomodoro Technique - Repeat a cycle of studying for 25 minutes, break for 5 minutes
Remove distractions - Silence notifications and prepare a clean workspace

Spoiler: Recommended Nootropics (DYOR, at your own risk)

Methylphenidate
Modafinil

Comprehension​

Feynman Technique - Explain it to someone else
Ask questions - “Why is this important?” “How do these two points connect?”
Summarise in your own words - If you can’t explain it to a 5 year old, you don't fully understand it

Spoiler: Recommended Nootropics (DYOR, at your own risk)

Noopept
Fasoracetam

Motivation ​

Look at poor people on TikTok - It's a cold tactic, but it works
Envision the life you want - True motivation comes from forward thinking

Spoiler: Recommended Nootropics

You're on your own! Treat yourself to a nice meal or a TV show after studying.

Focus: alpha-gpc
motivation & comprehension: phenylpiracetam

 

[BlendedBulge]

I hope you win MotM

 

[Deleted Member 49073]

Focus: alpha-gpc
motivation & comprehension: phenylpiracetam

I've been using alpha-gpc coupled with cdp-choline for a while now, and the effects are minimal.

Phenylpiracetam is good, though.

Noopept increases choline receptor density as far as I remember

It pairs well with choline supplements

I felt alpha-gpc

But everyone is different

I’m think of trying modafinil

 

[Deleted Member 49073]

I’m think of trying modafinil

I haven't personally tried, but it's very interesting.
Look around on Reddit, there are 100s of anecdotal trials on there.

generally
- memorise
- summarise
- connect
- criticise

4 stages of understanding: memorising is the most trivial, it’s of no use, summarising is important but simply means connecting internal points in the structure, connecting is advanced
