Want to score higher without studying all day? These 7 evidence-based habits help students learn faster, remember better, and stay stress-free.

Introduction

Study for 25 minutes, take a 5-minute break. Boosts focus & prevents burnout.

The 25–5 Rule (Pomodoro) 

Instead of rereading, test yourself. Ask questions, write from memory — improves long-term retention.

Active Recall

Study small chunks regularly instead of cramming. Your brain remembers more with spaced practice.

Spaced Repetition 

Use diagrams, mind maps, keywords, colors. Personalized notes = sharper memory.

Make Notes Your Way 

Turn OFF notifications during study hours. Digital distraction = low productivity.

Limit Tech Distractions 

Explaining concepts strengthens understanding. If you can teach it, you know it well.

Teach Someone What You Learned 

1 hour daily > 6 hours once a week. Consistency builds discipline & better results. 

Stay Consistent, Not Perfect
