    \n
      \n
        \n
      • Write down your study schedule ahead of time<\/span><\/li>\n
      • Schedule breaks-give your mind a breather, maybe go for a walk<\/span><\/li>\n
      • Schedule time to eat -your brain needs food!<\/span><\/li>\n
      • Set little goals to feel accomplished and avoid getting overwhelmed:<\/span><\/li>\n
          \n
        • Eg. read chapters 5-7, summarize <\/span><\/li>\n
        • Complete flow charts for sections 8-13<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/ul>\n<\/ol>\n<\/ol>\n

          2. Create a study group<\/h3>\n

              \n
                \n
              • Zoom is a great, covid-safe way to study with friends<\/span><\/li>\n
              • You may have questions that they have the answers to and vice versa. <\/span><\/li>\n
              • Oral practice through quizzing one another can be super effective for learning<\/span><\/li>\n
