A COMPILATION (more like a hodgepodge) OF STUDY TIPS I FIND USEFUL

when doing an assignment, set due dates for different parts of the project: starting the assignment
planned outline for assignment/essay
first draft
reference list
proofreading
finalized version
submission date

keep a notepad/piece of paper next to you while studying for distracting thoughts and difficult questions you can research laterfor each lecture/chapter write down some questions into your notes and answer them whenever you're reviewing themsummarize text and lecture notes into a paragraph or two after you're done writing use sticky notes to add extra or missed information into notesno matter if your notes are handwritten or typed - keep notes for each lecture series in the same file read and rewrite your notes after each lecture/writing session and rewrite ONLY if it suits your needs and you have time or they're completely intelligibleSwitch between study spaces if you have the ability (keeps things interesting)basic ideas:
cafes
libraries
study rooms
campus areas
plan your essays by the paragraph and make connectionsfor truly busy schedules: favor digital planners like Google Calendar or Notion (the template by Janice Studies on Youtube is a life-saver) - digital planners are far easier to edit on the gomy notion includes pages such as:degree plans and schedule
