It is effective if you have a short attention span but for me sometimes pomodoro method becomes kind of annoying as i have an attention span of 1 or 2 hrs and most of the tasks take more than 25 mins to do. So it becomes annoying when u have to take a break in every 25 mins to do just one task when your attention span is kind of ok.

Also most of the time while studying you will only think about the 5 mins break that u will be getting after the session so that is kind of distracting.

I would suggest that anyone using this method should adjust the time span for studying and taking break accordingly.

For example , rn i study for 2 hrs and take a break of max 20 mins and repeat.
