[anonymousmonkey1010101010]

I'm not talking active recall or the pomordo technique. what are the crazy crazy things you do that work when you're so locked out and burnt out. I listen to motivational speeches when i need to be productive. like podcast "study motivation speeches" where the people literally yell at you. on repeat for hours.

Kinda like your "motivation speeches"

Gaslight urself until thinking ur some genius in whatever subject u want to study for and then gaslight urself into thinking u love it and it’s easy idk. Ik someone who once tried to memorise an English quote each time they shot someone in a game lol

Expanding on this, sometimes I get ChatGPT to hype me up until I believe that I am the genius of the century in whatever subject (it's very good at being hyperbolic)

Also sometimes when I have absolutely no motivation I just do a karaoke session whilst doing work, which is my last resort cause it’s obv very unproductive

Also turn ur essays or stuff u have to memorise into a song and then start jaming by playing chords with it if u play an instrument

I wonder how long a song your 1000-word essays would make

But also it makes it so much easier to memorise when u turn it to a song. I’ve never tried it but I want to in the futures. Like I can always memorise song lyrics but not essays lol

This isn't unhinged, but more a reality check for myself:

I tell myself that this is the only chance I'll get at the HSC. Like it's literally a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. And I don't want to look back in the future and think that if I had studied for 1 extra week, I might have gotten higher. I don't want to live like that. (P.S. I know it's not that serious, but still)

I also do the singing my essays until I memorise them technique

Once I was so done with chem I went outside and carved “chem” into a log and smashed it repeatedly with an axe
Other times I’ll just knit or something to take my mind off things then get back to it
Take a cold shower if you’re tired

on the more realistic side I plastered all my walls with the English quotes I need to memorise, ts straight out of Airstrip One

my friend group also had a thing where we all put in $5 weekly and whoever had most hours on ypt gets all the $5s. obv no one actually committed to it so idk how effective it would’ve been

one of my friends recommended another strat which I’m not gonna share but I think you can guess what it’s along the lines of

Our skl would've gone crazy. I was handing out some papers and overheard a group of boys saying they were going to bet on who loses, l gave them the idea that maybe they should shave their heads if they get below 70 (90% of the class gets below 60, so obv it was a joke), but they full on take it, make everyone sign a paper they call 'legal proof'. Funny thing is, after the trials, 4 of them came to class bald!!

idk if this is a study tip its more like an exam tip - but anyways for english, i always write my introductions last. as in i skip a page and write my essay, then come back after ive adapted the essay completely and fully understood the question and write my intro. also, if i dont have enough time to talk abt my point, its a bit awkward to have it in the intro without discussing it
