The ideal study timeline varies depending on the difficulty of the exam and your learning style. However, it’s generally recommended to start studying at least a month in advance for major exams and adjust the timeline accordingly for smaller assessments.
Is it better to study in short bursts or long sessions?
Research suggests that spaced repetition, or studying in short intervals with breaks in between, is more effective for long-term retention. Aim for study sessions of 25-50 minutes, followed by short breaks to refresh your mind.
