Hope you guys enjoyed this video! Let's win together :)

Let’s be honest here guys, the reason we’re here is because we’re just procrastinating.

1. Waking up early = less distraction and accomploish task earlier andhave more time for others tasks. 2. Setting a specific time to study 3. Deep focus is esseintial to finish your task on time. 4. Setting up goals in life is important to let yourself focused and determined The most important thing is to respect your time and your assigned tasks to be done in time and seperate fun time an phone and social media from the studying time.

As someone who never studies but watches every single UKposts study videos, this one is a pure gem. I wish to implement this wholly in my life.

incredible speaking skills

As a university senior, this is still extremely helpful! I've always been a good student, but I love implementing new methods to max out my results even more :) good video dude

I love the fact that you are realistic and not complicating stuff...thank you

This is the best video on study strategies I have ever encountered. It's full of reality.

Studying is so complicated without secret and clever technices. But these advices u gave changes my mindset today. I am going to put them in action. Thank you

Nursing student here in my last semester. This last semester is the most difficult and I have found that my old study method just wasn't cutting it anymore. Having to switch it up now seemed crazy, but I'm glad I did. The recall method is a game changer. Also, I have found that explaining the subject material out loud to myself as if I'm teaching someone else helps as well.

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 01:40 🧠 Change your mindset: Focus on studying effectively, not just for long hours. Quality over quantity. 03:15 📅 Use Parkinson's Law to set specific deadlines for your study sessions, increasing productivity. 05:47 📝 Active recall by answering questions and using spaced repetition is a highly effective study method. 06:57 🚫 Manage distractions by separating study and leisure time; don't study while scrolling social media. 08:07 🎯 Set clear goals for both academic and personal achievements to stay motivated and focused.

the parkinson's law was definitely my problem... thank you for the guide! such an awesome video.

Well said, mindset comes first. I observed this. There is a huge difference in mindsets of a good student and average student

Thanks Collin you really helped me. Now I'm getting A's.

i have tried everything stated in the video before and now i am going smooth with my studies . the methods are really effective.

Incredible amount of wisdom in this video! Keep up the good work and I wish you the best!

This is by far the most video that seemed to me the most useful, not talking too much about techniques and stuff and tbf i see my self as an academic that relayed too much on passive studying methods and seeing these videos made me realize my mistakes thank you !

the ivy league secret - time doesnt matter, efficiency does - deep work sessions study laws - parkinsons law - set goals and deadlines - DO NOT BE OVERREALISTIC how to study - active recall >> past papers - spaced repetition focus - study without distractions - wake up early - 1 hour deep work session in the morning set goals for all areas of life

Very impressive I must say. The way you speak is already proof of you being an academic weapon.

Thanks brother I am a university student from Bangladesh. Your sharing strategy is really so much effective and I have already learned some of these strategy from reading books like "deep work ".

2h won't be enough for most students to get top grades. Work hard if you’re average. This guy is just that talented. There's level to eveything. Some elites have very good memory and understand concepts faster. I've seen some memorising whole chapter in 1hour when i need like 4

I'm a 23-year-old English translation student, currently studying at Universidad Nacional de La Plata in Argentina; I've struggled with my career and feel like a big failure. Thank you for your videos, they have helped me a lot.

Extremely well said. Thanks so much, dude. I love this vid

Thank you so much! Collin, you saved my school life, I hade noone to help me and tell me whats wrong but you made every thing clear! First a I went from d's to c's and b's , and now all A's! Thank yoh so much, I will be a great supporter from now on.

1. Deep work: only 2 hours, afterthat, you can relaxed and chill. 2. Active recall: practice the question before the exams. 3. Setting a goal: 4.0 GPA❤ Thank you so much. I am very gratitude your video. It is help me a lot😊😊

u won't believe that i watch literally so many of these kind of videos but i liked your video the most because you don't give these stupid examples or stories like others do u get straight to point 🥺please dont change brother i am preparing for competitive exam so now i have decided to follow you ❤

Thank you so much Collin! ❤ This really got my life straight!! :)

legend. i need this, my GCSEs are running around the corner to break my kneecaps, im a higher tier student and take quite academic courses - i need this acedemic shi in my life. you got a sub there.

Thanks thanks Collin, you are so inspiring, I watch your video until finish and still want to listen more tips . Keep posting chad ☺️

Coming across this video of yours is the best thing that has happened to me today. I will definitely put these into action.

Love you man! Thanks for the insights. ❤️👊🏼

I opened this expecting to hear some too good to be true grindset study method and email subscription pitch and click away but I actually gained a lot of good insight from this

Really enjoyed it, seeing someone be an academic weapon is INSPIRING

Guys I think he’s a huge believer of being an academic weapon.

This actually helped me! Finally found someone with the answer I was looking for!

Thank you so much! It really helped me. I hope I become someone like you when I grow up.

Ok that was a fire video, Collin 🔥❤️ We actually share the same thoughts about effective studying 😅 it's not about studying for hours, it's how well you study. I personally go 2-3 hours on some nights and it kept me going as a high school topper. I'd like to have a discussion with you Collin 😅

Bro can PITCH! 🤩 This was a really REALLY nice clear-cut video in itself that doesn't waste my time like other channels (that I stopped watching) that don't really relay any valuable information in a short or long video and leave me wanting more and waste my time in the process. Your video on the other hand gave us some really simple actionable steps and explained the concepts you presented REALLY well and actually taught us how to create DRIVE for studies and life in general. This was really good!

Impressive, looking forward to using the tips you put out here

I love this . This is literally the best study tip I have ever had

i never even watch education related videos but this still popped up on my home page but i’m very glad about it, because these tips were very helpful

thank you so so much! this is super helpful. i'm a freshman in HS and my goal is to maintain a 4.0 gpa so i can get into UMich, which is my dream school. i have an earth science test on wednesday and i want to start studying today (saturday) so i can feel extra prepared. i'm also going to go over a quiz question with my teacher that i didn't understand on tuesday!! instantly subscribed

Thank you so much, rn i’m at the point of failing this class, but with ur guidance i hope i can make it better, thx❤

i luv how my mindset is exactly like him, got more confidence that im doing the right thing lol

Thank you Collin! I’m currently finishing up Mechanical Engineering and CS at my university. Lots of great tips here. Your presentation was flawless as well!

Thanks a lot Collin the chad ... after I watched this video I followed the s teps and at the end I get A+ again thanks ❤

The good part is that I am improving as a student after hearing your words

I study law and currently have a hard time focusing and studying effectively. This is the first video, where I actually truly believe everything you said, make sense and will help. And I’ve been through SO many! You just got a new subscriber 🎉

I need more of this man, currently improving my maths mark so that i can start uni CA stream, grinding for about 5 hours from 5am to 10 am consistently, practice questions till oit by the door just busting my ass off because my goal is set in stone in my mind and i will achieve my dreams ,🎉

Thankyouu so much Collin this is the best way to change my Life & focusing more😊

Hello fellow tech student! What a great video. Spaced repetition really helps in the long run. I was scared of trying it out at first, as I was afraid that I might forget the information studied in previous study sessions, but I found that to be quite the contrary. Since that point, I have always been open to new study habits, and the video really added more to my repertoire!

Thank you so much for this. I'll come back to say that I did as you said and that I came out with an excellent grade! 🙏

Thank u man just changed my whole mind set helped alot🎉🎉

Mind-blowing advices❤. This channel is going to prosper soon 😊

THANKS!! I needed these advices because I'll start school in 18 days and I really wanna get good grades this year 😁

Bro, it's one the best videos I ever watched about studying! Thank You :) In my last year of high school in Brazil, I committed some mistakes like spending hours of my afternoon just studying the theory without exercises and active recalling. Nowadays I see the difference between studying hard and studying smart. I recommend the book: "Aprendendo Inteligência" (Learning Intelligence in Portuguese) by physics teacher Pier Luiggi Piazzi.

Ahhhh! Loved this video! Thank you!

I was an excellent student when I was student in school and I graduated from school in 2022 and I always got first degree even from primary up to high school and nowadays I'm learning computer science because I like it even though I have passed in ENG university but I left it in order to learn computer science! In general your thought are completely extraordinary I agree with you, I had these opinions in my head when I used to study in school but now I don't really need to do because it has become my habit.

One thing in myself, I always feel more confident in studying and feel like a sharper student in completing my tasks. But one thing lacks me always framing a time limit for my study and not following a specific timetable. Two things that I learned in this video are setting goals for my study and asking questions or looking over past papers!! Collin, my friend, Bunch of thx! A happy study from Pakistan.

this guy is underrated. He needs at least a 100k subs. Btw. you earnd a sub

How the hell is this not a million likes? This is the most helpful a person has been to me.

واخيرا فيديو بمعلومات غير مكرره عن باقي فيديوهات اليوتيوب 🫂❤️، انا متعلم على طريقة دراسه و اسلوب ثابت و فادني كلش بمسيرة ال ١٢ سنه الدراسية الي بالمدرسه ، بس من صرت طالب جامعي الطريقه بدة تظرني اكثر من ما تنفعني ، و حتى بديت اسوف لمن شفت نفسي دراستي ما جاي تنفع و جاي تراكم الماده عليه و شفت اكثر من فيديو بس ما اقتنعت ، كلامك اقنعني راح اجرب الي قلته يا رب تجيب وياي نتيجة ❤. شكرا على نصايحك و لانك شاركتنه طرقك بالدراسه🤝🗿

9minutes of my life has not been wasted

This advice is worth MILLIONS. None other than the GOAT himself.

Thanks for your advice 🙏

This is gem,realistic and helpful. Deep work

no b.s. & straight to the point. God Bless u

I really like this quote from a book called "Dune", which emphasizes the importance of trusting yourself: "Muad'Dib learned rapidly because his first training was in how to learn. And the first lesson of all was the basic trust that he could learn. It's shocking to find how many people do not believe they can learn, and how many more believe learning to be difficult. Muad'Dib knew that every experience carries its lesson." Changing your attitude towards learning is everything.

I got most of my quizzes and exams perfect because of your video 😲

Bruh I can't even express how grateful I am to come across this vid, i really needed this

Jesus loves you

Im an Indian grade 12th student with Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics as my majors, I struggle a lot with time management and stuff, after watching your video i have much clarity on the dilemma i am going through, Thanks Bud.

Thanks for the video and knowledge shared ❤

You said it all bro 🎉. Big ups to you 👌🏻

This video is so useful! Can you please make a video about getting into Yale + stats? :)

Good lessons .. one thing you might have overlooked is ability to retain what you study. As some students lack that ability.

Thanks man I hope this video really helps. I'll be grateful for that. I have this difficulty with some of my courses. I've been watching UKposts videos am getting something now.

Brilliant brilliant brilliant, I had to subscribe your UKposts channel, like and comment it just because of how well you spoke and with meaningful words

I thought this good-quality video belonged to one of the million subscribers type of channel! You are amazing for setting up the starting point...I am deeply thankful for your advice, etc. Hopefully, I can achieve my goals the way you did... :D

It's also important to be motivated and to have a positive attitude. If you believe in yourself and your ability to succeed, you're more likely to achieve your goals.

Thank you sir COLLIN..... I usually believe studying for long time is the only way out but just realize "Time studying is not equal knowledge gained".The Parkinson's Law(setting goals and deadline, studying for specific hours). I did learn a lot from "Active Recall" studying with past questions is the most sophisticated weapon as a student in combination to spaced repetition wow it was just so mind-blowing. Most importantly "Fucus" staying away from distraction and to crown it all I have learnt to be goal oriented not just in my academics but in all areas of my life....I'm grateful looking forward to hearing from you again

Thank u for showing me how to study effectively.

The first guy who actually explained how to do active recall. Thanks bro. I've watched so many videos but all of them just say "do active recall" and never elaborate on how to do it lol. this helps a lot

Veil's Summary Notes: 1. Parkinson's Law - Work expands to fill time allocated. Therefore, compress the time for your studies to only 2 hrs per day. You can add more time to yourself if need be afterwards, assuming you feel like doing more. But overall, your day's work is complete after you do those 2 hours. Hence, allow yourself to feel relaxed at the end, to avoid unnecessary stress. Plus even if you did not complete everything, this will force your brain to be more vigilant on the next days moving forward, thus increasing your efficiency. 2. Active Recall - Find and do past exam/test papers related to the topic, one by one, with your FULL concentration. It doesn't matter how many you do, as long as you put effort into each question. Additionally, create flashcards out of them. You can then put these flashcards in 3 boxes/folders. From easy to medium to hard. Of course, review the hard ones more often and the easy ones less often. You can move these flashcards around the folders if some become more harder or more easier over time. 3. Spaced Repetition - Basically to NOT study everything about a test/topic all at once, but to do them daily or weekly, where some days you study one topic, and some days you study other topics. 4. Focus - No distractions while studying. Learn to separate your 'FUN' time from your study time. Instead, you can reward yourself after studying with those very distractions you are NOT supposed to be doing. Eg, Netflix or scrolling on Tiktok like a zombie. Your life, so your choice of rewards depending on what you think is fun. Although, it is recommended to bore yourself to death during your study breaks with meditation or focusing on a wall or your surroundings, inorder to force your brain to produce dopamine during your actual study sessions. This was proven to increase the ability to enjoy the actual study process over time. 5. Wake Up Early - Do your 2 hrs study session exactly from the moment you wake up. If you think that's too hard, then you can do 20 minutes to 1 hr atleast, and the remaining of your 2 hrs can be completed whenever you think it is necessary during the day. Literally within 90 seconds of opening your eyes you jump right to your notebooks and plow through. This is because your brain waves are most suited for deep focus and peak performance after waking up. Science says so. And in that sense, you can do your remaining 2 hrs of study time after waking up from a nap during the day, maybe in the afternoons. 6. Set Goals - Visualize where you want to be in 10 years and reverse engineer the steps. For example, your thought process could go something like: "I want to invent a new advanced robot that will help disadvantaged blind children, like my cousin, to gain the ability to see interactive learning materials directly in their brain without having any eyes. Inorder to do that, I need to gain knowledge on neurology and mechatronics. And inorder to obtain both of these knowledge, I need to go to a prestigious university. And inorder to get into such an institution, I need to perform well academically so I am offered a scholarship, since my family is poor, frankly speaking. And to to do well academically, I need to do well on tests and exams. This goes without saying, but tests and exams cannot be aced without studying. Therefore, I choose to give it my all in my studies! It ultimately adds to my long term goal after all." This will act as your motivation to plow through each material. Additionally, set SMART goals: S - Specific; Notice how hyper specific my example above is. M - Measurable; You must be able to measure the progress towards your goal. In this case, it is scoring well on tests. A - Attainable; It must be realistically possible to do. Don't aim for the impossible, as it will lead to crushed expectations. R - Relevant; It must matter to your life. Why would your brain care about studying if it does not aid to your long term goals at all? You'd lose interest and classes will become a pain. T - Time bound; There must be a deadline for the tasks, or else you'll procrastinate and NEVER get things done. 7. Pareto Principle - 20% of the actions lead to 80% of the results. This means only about 20% of your effort matters to your overall grade. You can apply this to your studies by; a) Focusing on the material that you are weakest at. b) Doing your best to find out what exactly is going to be on the test. This way, you can allocate your time wisely during your 2 hrs of daily study (Parkinson's Law). Doing the two of these will also allow you to NOT waste time on pointless topics that don't really add much to your grade.

Let me know ✌️ Edit: Actually a bunch of people wanted the link in the comments so I'll just leave it here: mailchi.mp/64d090db61cf/awaken-aviels-arcanum

With active recall, in Ghana we call that “The use of Pasco (Past Questions)”. And that's what I don't regret applying. When the questions came, I was more than very happy to see repeated questions solved.

Thanks to you big man.I know this video will be helpful to me

I’ve always told my classmates that the secret to my success is practice papers, it works so well!

I dedicate four hours to my studies daily, allocating two hours before class [4am - 6am] and another two hours before bedtime [5pm - 8pm]. This approach has proven highly effective for me. In the previous semester, I achieved reasonable results, with a 94% score in applied mathematics, making me the sole student with a grade exceeding 90%. In physics, I earned a 93% score, while in mathematics and academic literacy, I achieved 84% and 85%, respectively. Lastly, in computing, I secured a 75% grade. So i agree you do not really need too much hours to efficiently study.

Active Recall is effective for me as well as taking notes and consistently reviewing those notes; I've seen students take notes and not review them. Time management is the best.

Wonderful video! Very informative and to the point, thanks collin!
