How to STUDY so FAST that it feels ILLEGAL
Discover the game-changing study techniques that will revolutionize your learning process in this eye-opening stick figure animation! If you've ever stayed up all night cramming for exams with minimal results, this video reveals the scientifically-proven methods that top students, memory champions, and learning experts use to absorb information at speeds that seem almost unfair.
I break down the advanced cognitive techniques that transform ordinary students into learning machines – from the little-known "Feynman Technique" that helps you master complex concepts in record time to the strategic "spaced repetition" method that hacks your brain's memory systems. These aren't just theories – they're actionable strategies backed by neuroscience research that you can implement immediately.
Learn how to:
• Cut your study time in half while doubling retention
• Use "active recall" to permanently store information in long-term memory
• Implement the "memory palace" technique used by world memory champions
• Optimize your study environment for maximum focus and minimal distractions
• Structure your notes to work with your brain instead of against it
Whether you're a high school student preparing for finals, a college student juggling multiple courses, or a professional studying for certifications, these techniques work across all subjects and skill levels. My simple stick figure illustrations break down these powerful concepts into easy-to-understand visuals that make implementation straightforward.

00:00What if I told you there's a way to learn anything in half the time?
00:03Today, I'm sharing the study techniques they don't teach in school.
00:06Before we dive in, smash that like button if you're tired of wasting hours studying with
00:11little to show for it, and subscribe for more game-changing tips that school never taught you.
00:15Now let's get into the good stuff.
00:17Technique 1. The Forgetting Curve.
00:20Hack. Let's start with the biggest mistake most students make.
00:23You probably study like this.
00:24Cram all information the night before an exam.
00:27Pass the test. Maybe.
00:28Then forget everything a week later. Right?
00:31This happens because you're fighting against your brain's natural forgetting curve.
00:35Research shows that without reinforcement, we forget about 70% of what we learn within 24 hours.
00:41Here's the hack.
00:42Instead of one massive study session, break it into strategically timed mini-sessions.
00:46Study your material, then review it after.
00:4924 hours, 3 days, 1 week, 2 weeks.
00:52This technique, called spaced repetition, literally rewires your brain to move information from short-term to long-term memory.
00:59Each review takes just 10 to 15 minutes, but the effect is permanent learning instead of temporary memorization.
01:05I used this for my biology final and reviewed my notes for just 15 minutes per day.
01:10When exam day came, it felt like cheating because I barely needed to study the night before.
01:14Your brain isn't designed to focus for hours on end.
01:20That's why you can study for 3 hours straight and barely remember anything.
01:24Enter the 50-10 method.
01:25Study with complete focus for 50 minutes, then take a 10-minute break.
01:29Not 49 minutes.
01:31Not 51 minutes.
01:32Exactly 50 minutes of pure, uninterrupted focus.
01:36Why?
01:36Because research shows that our brains operate in ultradian cycles, periods of high focus followed by natural dips.
01:43By working with these cycles instead of against them, you can maintain peak concentration.
01:48During your 10-minute break, don't check social media.
01:51Instead, get up, stretch, drink water, or look out the window.
01:55This resets your brain for the next focus period.
01:57I tested this against my old 3-hour marathon sessions, and the difference was shocking.
02:01With the 50-10 method, I mastered complex calculus problems that used to take me days to understand.
02:08Technique 3.
02:09Active Recall.
02:10The study method with 400% better results.
02:13Here's a mind-blowing fact.
02:15Reading your notes over and over is the worst way to study.
02:18Yet that's what most students do.
02:20Instead, use Active Recall.
02:22Close your books and ask yourself questions about what you just learned.
02:25Force your brain to pull the information from memory.
02:27Here's how.
02:281.
02:29Read a section of your textbook or notes.
02:312.
02:32Close it.
02:323.
02:33Either explain the concept out loud as if teaching someone else, or write down everything you remember for.
02:38Check your work against the original material 5.
02:41Focus on what you missed in your next study session.
02:44This feels harder than passive re-reading because it is harder, but studies show it's up to 400% more effective at creating lasting memories.
02:52I used this technique to learn 200 Spanish vocabulary words in just 2 days.
02:57Technique 4.
02:58The Memory Palace.
02:59This next technique might sound strange, but it's used by every memory champion in the world.
03:05Your brain is terrible at remembering abstract information, but amazing at remembering places and vivid images.
03:11The Memory Palace technique combines these strengths.
03:13Here's how.
03:14Visualize a familiar place, your home, school, etc.
03:182.
03:18Convert information into bizarre, memorable images.
03:223.
03:22Place these images at specific locations in your mental palace.
03:254.
03:26To recall, simply walk through your palace and see the information.
03:29The weirder and more ridiculous your images, the better you'll remember them.
03:33Technique 5.
03:34The Feynman Technique.
03:35Named after Nobel Prize-winning physicist Richard Feynman, this technique is simple but powerful.
03:41To use it, 1.
03:43Take a piece of paper.
03:442.
03:44Write the concept you're trying to learn at the top.
03:473.
03:47Explain it in your own words as if teaching a 12-year-old 4.
03:50Identify gaps in your explanation.
03:52Go back to your source material to fill those gaps.
03:566.
03:56Repeat until you can explain it simply.
03:58If you can't explain something simply, you don't truly understand it.
04:02This technique forces you to confront what you don't know instead of fooling yourself into thinking you get it.
04:07I use this to finally understand organic chemistry mechanisms that had confused me for months.
04:13By trying to explain them simply, I realized exactly where my understanding was breaking down.
04:18If you found this helpful, absolutely demolish that like button and share it with a friend who's drowning in textbooks right now.
