Am I studying too little
-
I am studying 3hours a day.. To be precise, 45mins study,15min break like one blogsite stated ..
I don't know if these can push me to my maximum potential ... Is 3 hours enough ?
Thanks. -
when u really study, you won't bother about the time.
-
I tend to care about the time ... studying is a drudgery

I knew this undergrad who studied 16 hours a day for his degree. He graduated with a GPA of 3.96 out of 4, the uni was so impressed, they directly admitted him into a phd course on scholarship.
How many people you know jump directly from degree to phd? To be realistic, how many people you know can score 3.96 for their GPA in an engineering degree? -
No one but yourself can give you the correct answer.
Everyone studies in different ways. Only you know what works best for you.
What may work well for me may not produce the same level of effectiveness for you.
As a general rule of thumb though, if you concentration starts to waver, take a short break before continuing.
As to how long to study before you take a break, really depends on yourself lor.
Just my $0.02. -
I'm impressed too .. -
ok... i will try to do that .

3 hrs is good liao. lol

It's about the amount of things that goes into our head rather than the timeOriginally posted by dbowie:I tend to care about the time ... studying is a drudgery
Like for doing question, if you do a question and you can do that question easily, mean that you are have clear that question or topic...
If not, learn from that question and after learning, you learn something new...
You will need to be able to answer any question taken from anywhere... If you are able to do that, good grades is a easy thing...
And btw, there is a Homework Forum which includes studying...
Good luck -
he may not be the same as this undergrad guy. Studying 16 hours a day is not good for your health. Should have time for relax and leisure too.Originally posted by ditzy:I knew this undergrad who studied 16 hours a day for his degree.

Study 16 hours for a degree...
Very little time for other stuffs like social life.
Are you sure studies is so important that it means sacrificing everything else? -
He was an army regular before he went on to his degree. I gathered from a female friend of his that he is rather tee ko.Originally posted by Darkness_hacker99: Model! I should learn from him. Especially during conversation. -

Study smart. Time spent sitting at the table and staring at your books, not absorbing a single thing or praying ffor diffusion to take place while couting time is not going to help you pass your exams.Originally posted by dbowie:I am studying 3hours a day..

Study smart by FULLY CONCENTRATING and LEARNING/REVISING until your time is up. LET THE CLOCK DO THE TIMING. =,=/22 -
i think that u should study smart but not study by the duration of the time.
-
Everytime when you study, set a task that you one to accomplish within that period.
And fufill it.
Not the time la, aiyo. -
i study when i feel like it i tihnk its best cause ur mind is ready to absord info

In the United States, the "degree to masters to PhD" system is not practiced. Instead, students go from degree directly to PhD. (note: MBA is a different system)Originally posted by ditzy:How many people you know jump directly from degree to phd? -
Dude, I only study 2 hours a day, and in between 20-30min rest.Originally posted by dbowie:I am studying 3hours a day.. To be precise, 45mins study,15min break like one blogsite stated ..

Its not about how long, but how much u absorb inside. I have friends who can study an entire chapter for 2-3 hours a day, and at the end, they don't understand what's being said. Then I have some who only study 1 hour and he can remember quite a lot.
Its not about who's smart or stupid, who needs longer or shorter time 2 study, but its about what u study and whether u can absorb inside. If u feel that u have learn enough for the day, take a breather, and then try 2 write down the things that u have learnt about the chapter/lesson. Go through them again the next day before u start on a new chapter. Hope it helps. -
wow i'll die if i do nothing but study for more than 15 hours straight...prob the guy had breaks or somethin??cos its not possible to study effectively tt way.
it depends on ur mental grasp of the content ur studyin. humanities and science takes up the most time i think, math is more of the consistency of practice...
if u wanna study 'more' go ahead but can u actualli absorb n understand everything effectively? -
yup///dun care how much time u spend...important thing is....DID u learn anyth at the end of the day?yupp...this is more important....
