Effective Study Planning and Stress Management

Study Smarter, Not Harder

Create a study schedule that breaks material into manageable sections. Set goals for each session, review regularly, and mix up topics to stay engaged. Don’t forget self-care—get enough sleep, exercise, and take breaks to keep your mind fresh.

  • Practice mindfulness or relaxation exercises.
  • Join a study group for support.
  • Reward yourself for meeting milestones.

Examples

  • Using a calendar app to map out your study plan and track progress.
