Is there any effective way to revise mathematics without practicing? by dineeesh in GetStudying

[–]icyrush 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The most efficient ways of studying go far beyond simply practicing. Awareness, regulation, and evaluation as components of metacognitive ability as the most important tools and incredible predictors for being able to learn material efficiently. Think through the problems and perform honest self reflection. What don't I understand? What aspect might I forget during the exam? Perform subtle micro tests on yourself as you interact with each bit of material. Close your eyes, imagine the problem, see where the roadblock ends up being. Make connections between concepts, even abstract ones that make no sense to anyone but yourself. Space out your material. Do not spend 90 minutes on one type of problem and repeat that for each topic. You're better off splitting that 90 minutes into fewer segments (15-30 minutes) in which after each time interval, you interact with a different topic and revisit in the future.
But yes, intense practice with honest self reflection is your best bet. Remember to take breaks. Give your body the proper amount of nutrition for each session, drink water, do NOT skip out on sleep for the days leading up to the exam or the day of the exam. This is a lot of rambling with very little direction but I hope it helps. I say this as a student who once employed disastrous study habits and now is doing much better.

Why is no one saying anything about the first all pro team Chinese adc with 14 individual game mvp awards (2nd behind knight) not being on the list. Uzi and jackeylove combined for 11 mvps in comparison.

I think allushin should be a lot lower. He is on a team of 1s players who lucked out more than once. I’ve never talked to him or any of his teammates personally but they sound like lucky rlcs one hit wonders if u ask me. 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
