Study Corner

Welcome to my study room !! I've spent a LOT of my life studying, and a lot of my life still revolves around it so i thought i'd share some stuff that has helped me! Feel free to ask about advice or tips or whatever!

Music

Music I listen to when I study!!

It's mainly instrumental music, and a LOT of video game ost. (Im still going to make a music room later but... this is probably like... 80% of the music i listen to...)

My playlists

Albums

Resources

Most of my studying resources here are for medicine cuz that's what I study so I dont really know much else. sorry.

General resources

Note

  • Anki
    1. Flashcard app. They calculate the most effective timing for studying them based on research. Extremely useful- that is, if you actually ever manage to make your flashcards
  • Evernote
    1. My go-to note app. It's simple but you can also do a lot of stuff with it. the subscription paywall for some features is annoying though (but the app is free)
  • OneNote
    1. Normal people use it for normal note-taking but i use it for my giant insanely condensed summary notes

Productivity

  • Forest app
    1. Great timer productivity app where you can grow a tree for each session. Very satisfying. Free on android but isnt on ios
  • Study bunny
