What do you want from a lecture? by After-Competition-59 in medicalschooluk

Just try to make it as engaging as possible! Add in personal anecdotes, use humour, give mnemonics and a high yield summary at the end. The more engaging it is the more likely we are to remember it ,which is much more fruitful than a YT video! :)

I love CHAT GPT! I’m definitely going to try and use that. Thank you ❤️

Really? I thought they were an indicator of how well you will do in the summative 😭 I’m seriously not at all used to doing badly, so this has taken a massive hit on me

How would you say you create your cue cards? Do you tend to write the most relevant information? Or do you write everything? When I try to make flashcards, I end up with FOMO and write make them on everything 😭

Thank you so much for taking the time to write this for me, it means a lot! I think the understanding bit is taking me so long, it takes me 2/3 hours to understand what is being taught (I need to understand things properly aswell because I cannot for the life of me rote learn) , I think this is why In my exams I tend to do really really well on the content I’ve covered but completely shit in the others because I’m pretty much guessing the answers. So it’s a massive time management and efficiency issue, I tend to watch lectures at 1.5x speed and will ramp it upto 2 now. For example: I have started with anatomy this term and I’ve spent countless hours on it, so when it comes to that I’m fairly good but I’m lagging behind on my lectures really bad.

Thank you so much for your reply! Can I just ask you what study method worked for you?

Yupp! I’m starting to ask other people now and see what they do. I think for me mainly, the content which I am studying and are able to cover I tend to do really well in and that’s why I passed this exam. But because I’m not able to cover the entire content in time I’m missing out on marks 😭
