1. 0:00one other thing that I'd recommend is
2. 0:02work ahead of the class like don't yet
3. 0:04not not working for the sake of working
4. 0:07hit but don't limit yourself to the
5. 0:09speed that the class is going in if you
6. 0:11can if you're learning it by yourself
7. 0:12you're reading it and you're doing this
8. 0:14process and you're thinking about it and
9. 0:15you're realizing actually I'm able to
10. 0:17simplify this information down to really
11. 0:19very little and understand it very
12. 0:22clearly and you're able to just keep
13. 0:24going ahead
14. 0:25don't let the class hold you back just
15. 0:26keep going through so I'll take about
16. 0:2995% of the students that I privately
17. 0:31coach right now this time of the year
18. 0:33around April May they have finished
19. 0:36their entire year 13 curriculum through
20. 0:39independent study no tutoring just self
21. 0:42study studying probably miss hours and
22. 0:44they'd normally be studying a day they
23. 0:46have finished their entire curriculums
24. 0:48worth of studying and it's doing this
25. 0:50process so when you start applying it
26. 0:54you might find that when you do like one
27. 0:56little bit you know one class at a time
28. 0:58it's worth it's too easy to apply it you
29. 1:01end up just bringing it down to like one
30. 1:03concept and you're like ah this can't be
31. 1:04right but actually it is so that's why
32. 1:07you need to do a whole topic all in one
33. 1:09go yeah kind of just the concepts the
34. 1:19logic it's the learning nothing like
35. 1:23that or don't details so important
36. 1:26details are ones that allow you to
37. 1:28understand the concepts really well but
38. 1:31not just every specific detail so
39. 1:32they're not important specific details
40. 1:35that you still need to know but aren't
41. 1:37really important from a logic and
42. 1:38conceptual point of view chuck those of
43. 1:40the flashcards like digital flash pods
44. 1:42and just repetition algorithm just cue
45. 1:46you whenever you need to do it and do
46. 1:48that so that's rote learning so you
47. 1:50really want to cleanly divide that rote
48. 1:52learning line yeah playing you know
49. 1:58concepts and definitions if you know me
50. 2:01and the differences are stuff that you
51. 2:03kind of want not necessarily about like
52. 2:07yeah exact lines especially um like
53. 2:11science topics or
54. 2:13every topic you know like real
55. 2:14specifically like the date of something
56. 2:16yeah yeah a criteria or the name of a
57. 2:19protein or the name of a the specific
58. 2:23function of you know like an organelle
59. 2:25or you know what happens in prophase
60. 2:28what happens in metaphase like very
61. 2:31specific details you want to try to do
62. 2:33as much logic building as possible but
63. 2:35there's always gonna be stuff that you
64. 2:36just can't seem to fit together and when
65. 2:39that happens you make an efficiency
66. 2:42decision am I gonna spend the next one
67. 2:44hour learning about this so I can
68. 2:45understand this one fact logically or am
69. 2:48I just gonna rote learn it and then at
70. 2:51that time if it's gonna take you more
71. 2:52than five or ten minutes for this one
72. 2:54fact then maybe it's better to rote
73. 2:55learn it
