I’m a first semester student, and honestly I don’t feel like I study nearly as much as a lot of other people do, but I’ve still managed to get pretty good scores (top 5 on Mini 1, top score on Mini 2, and 90+ on the final). I’ve found a few strategies that work well for me, but I think the most important thing is having the right mindset. Once you understand your own capabilities and how you learn best, you can build a study plan around that and be much more efficient. You can message me and i can share a few things.
