GENIUS METHOD for Studying (Remember EVERYTHING!)

I liked the ~”learning to release the clutch and starting driving” example. I learned to drive on a manual/stick shift. Initially, I kept stalling the car. My dad was teaching me at that point and I couldn’t get what the problem was. Then my mother was teaching me and she helped me understand that (at least in the vehicle I was driving) the crucial part of letting out the clutch happened in the very last little bit of travel of the pedal. It was like a lightbulb. Ha just needed to have a better perception of what was actually going on.

Thank you !

🧠 Active recall is the key to remembering what you study.
- 📚 The brain learns by creating neural pathways between neurons.
- 🌳 The more you study using active recall, the stronger the neural pathways become.
- 💡 Active recall involves reformulating information in your own words.
- 🗒 Writing out the information by hand is the most effective form of active recall.
- ⏰ Brief study sessions with frequent reviewing are more effective than cramming.
- 🚫 Cramming is inefficient and leads to brief retention of information.

Active recall is the way to go!

THe problem here is those test have been in erro and information, so its more like cultism or dogma, rather than truth or a a relation or foundation. but it is ocmmon sense, that when I teach someone somethign I remember amore...

yea this works

Отличные и качественные связки, можно смело пользоваться, рекомендую👍

I hope this works but I saw this a bit late my history exam is tomorrow 😅😅

The connection of the neurons is called synapse, and the strengthening of them is called long-term potentiation. The way you strengthen them is like you said, through active recall. If you force your brain to constantly remember something (putting your brain through repeated stimuli) your neurons will strengthen in connection, therefore making your ability to retain the information more efficient. I learned that in Ap psych this year 😭

Me with my exam tmmr

Is it ok if I just write it down once I think about it, instead of thinking, say it, then write it.

Can confirm, remember everything you possibly can.

omg I actually did this last year on the apush exam and now I’m watching this video. I prepared using a workbook, and the notes I took were mainly on the general concepts with sub categories. The notes were in the most basic, street language I could write like: “Bacon’s rebellion was with Native Americans and ** happened”. I would remember the simple info then the pieces would connect.

I ended up getting a 5

Hahaha so funny I’ve been doing this on my own to study since I’m a 6 year old 😅 no idea this was a method

So amazing how such a simple method could lead to you learning so much more than you expected yourself to.

ive been doing this since elementary and never knew it was some serious method

I do active recall just laying in bed

All I remember from this video, " what you talking about Willis!"

Did this same tactic in Spanish classes. I would just associate words with English words like armario-which is Spanish for closet. I always just thought of “Mario is in the closet…poor fella”

But in the subjects I’m learning you need to include keywords and have the exact definition or else it is “wrong”, according to my teacher

💯💯💫Thank you so much for sharing your wealth of experience, Sirs!

I'll never "do" it, but I will listen to this video.

Step 1- be Asian
Step 2- have Asian parents
Step 3- have a perfect 100% on math tests
Step 4- complete ap test with 100%
Step 5- get in this guys video on how you remembered it…


😅 step 1 is a bit hard 😂😂

Im gonna try this tomorrow thanks

I tried the be Asian method but since I was born in us with parents whiter than my dentists teeth I couldn’t get a perfect score

Of course bro is Asian

Ive accidentally been doing something very similar to this. . .

acc a goated strategy. Got a 5 with this and will use it for every ap class. You sometimes won't feel like it worked until you take a test and u remember the key concepts. If i used this in ap human I wouldn't have got a 4 lmao

Or an other explanation: Jerry got a 100% because he is asian. Nah just kidding great vid 👍👍

If you study anything multiple times it will stick.

Hi how can i use active recall for long notes because i think is works with small notes

Another way to think of this method is “Active Engagement.”

Instead of trying to just remember or soak in everything, sort of play around with everything you’re doing.

I already do some pieces of the method, but having it listed out is very nice.

Restating the info in your own words is probably very important. The meanings are almost always more important, and this helps to really grasp at it.

ACTIVE RECALL METHOD
1. Read or watch a single bit of information you need to know
2. Reformulate that information in your own words
3. Write it out by hand

He is just like mimir

I did this since 9th grade and I only realized in university that it actually had a name😂. Thank God!

I’m a Muslim and we are taught to memorize scripture this is exactly how we do it

Thank you very much for your info🙏

Props for the “What u talking about Willis”

I've been doing active recalling as my own way of revising without knowing what active recalling is

Yes it works 😂
Reading out load
And writing ..
And reformulate ..or short notes

Wouldn't this just be considered the Feynmen technique..

Literally this video is set up like those scam money making videos where they always give some long backstory never cutting to the point

are you ploted from starting

I swear to god that i was doing this method without knowing that it even exists. It is a 10000% working method. Trust me

Woah, im using this method without knowing im using this method

So it's like quizzing ourself rather than studying. By putting it in our own words we solidify the comprehension instead of empty memorization. Like taking practice tests over and over rather than staring at flashcards and reading the source material. I'm way too old to be in school but I would suggest taking Lion's Mane while learning because it is a nerve growth factor that can cross the blood brain barrier and regenerates/protects nerve cell death as well. Taking a stimmy like adderol alongside it would give you a big advantage in test scores

But what do I know, I'm a homeless alcoholic criminal lmao😂 Yall kids be safe
