TLDR: Quick tutorial on getting high grades on college.

Before reading, I want to apologize for any mistake or typo, english is not my mother tongue.

Who am I to give out tips

I'm a med student, on the top 10% grades out of one of the best med school in latin america. I also have a side business and go to the gym. I don't study more than 4 hours a day, while my friends grind for 8-10 hours like the miserable fuckers they are.

What is it about?

You can use this tutorial to reduce your study time so you can start a bussiness, get dat 4.0 GPA, destroy those pre-med courses, ETC. This is a TOOL, use it as you feel more convenient.

Tutorial

It is not an actual tutorial, but a quick fix.

Are you ready?

You have to FOCUS.

"uh du, I do it all the times since high school" Cries the typical college student. You know... in these days and times people think they focus on something but they don't, they can't. Snapchat, instagram, TV, etc all these stuff plus your own thoughts fight for your focus.

Studying gets hard because simply lack of focus. So, how do you know if you have this problem while studying?

1-You listen to music, ANY MUSIC. 2-You are checking your cellphone. 3-TV/Computer is ON. 4-Talking with friends. 5-Thinking about food/girls/gym or whatever 5 minutes into the reading. 6-Able to study for 8 hours straight.

And how do you focus?

You read the text, fully focused on it, your mind, your thinking, etc. Everything has to go into the text. EVERY MOTHER FUCKING THOUGHT MUST GO INTO THE TEXT. No gym thoughts, not checking instagram, not classic music bullshit, no RP stuff, just the text.

After every paragraph read, you stop, and If you can summarize in your own words that piece of information you are doing it good. If you can't, you MUST go over it again, until you can.

You also study using a tree of knowledge. You don't go into advanced stuff until your base knowledge is firm as fuck.

You study in pulses of 25 minutes. No more, then you rest as long as you feel you need. I usually start with 5 minutes, and well into the study session end up using 20-30 minutes.

You will know you are focusing because after 4 hours your mind will be totally destroid. Seriously I can't study more than 4-5 hours in a row.

In class, don't take notes just pay attention to the teacher. After that, you just use your amazing social skills to befriend some nerd and borrow those notes from him/her.

If you feel your ability to focus is lacking, don't give up. It takes time until you can do it consciusly.

Quick tips that works for me, but may not for everyone

-I focus way better on early mornings. -Modafinil, in low doses boost those early morning studying session x 10. -I don't recommend all-nighters at all (with or without modafinil) unless you are fucked... If you need to study a lot in a short amount of time, just sleep 3-5 hours and wake up early. Use coffee or modafinil. -Study everyday 3-4 hours and you won't need to do all nighters or suffer at all.

Stay in tune, I will write about destroying those exams...
