6 Things People Don't Always Tell You About Studying

1. you ace tests by overlearning. you should know your notes/flashcards/definitions basically by heart. if someone asks you about a topic when you’re away from class or your notes and you can answer them in a thorough and and accurate answer, then you’re good, you know the material. 

2. if you don’t understand something, it will end up on the test. so just don’t disregard and hope that this specific topic won’t be on the test. give it more attention, help, and practice. find a packet of problems on that one concept and don’t stop until you finish it and know it the best. 

3. sometimes you just need that Parental Push. you know in elementary school, they would tell you “ok now it’s time for you to do your homework! you have a project coming up, start looking for a topic now!” ONE of your teachers might be like this. be thankful for it and follow their advice! these teachers are the best at always keeping you on track with their calendar. if not a teacher, then have one of your friends be that person that can keep you accountable for the things you promised you would do. 

4. you just need to kick your own ass. seriously. i know it sucks and its hard to study for two things at once. BUT. I DONT CARE IF IT’S HARD. you need to do it and at least do it to get it over with because you can’t keep putting things off. If you do, you will eventually run out of time and you will hate yourself. force yourself to do it. i made myself sign up for june ACT even though there’s finals because if i didn’t, i probably never would. like do i think i’m gonna be ready in one month? probably not, SO I BETTER GET ON IT AND START STUDYING! 

5. do homework even if it doesn’t count. if you actually try on it, then you will actually do so much better on the tests, it’s like magic. 

6. literally just get so angry about procrastinating that you make yourself start that assignment. I know how hard it is to kick the procrastination habit. I have to procrastinate. So I make myself start by thinking about my deadlines way early. I think, “oh i have a presentation in three weeks (but it really takes 2 weeks to do), i’ll be good and start today.” when that doesn’t happen, you say you’ll do it tomorrow, and this happens for like the next four days. I get so mad at myself for not starting when i am given a new chance to do so with every passing day. By that time, you actually have exactly how much time you need for it AND you were able to procrastinate the same way you usually do ;)

unique ways to learn foreign languages

Hi it’s werelivingarts and I’m back with some unique tips on learning foreign languages. I love learning Mandarin and Korean, and my foreign friends absolutely love it when I try to speak with them. ✨

Learning languages is tough but really fun. Remember that you need to set goals, such as by the end of today, I will finish studying the alphabet, not the simple “getting fluent” goal. It’s okay when things you first say are gibberish because you will certainly get better by learning your mistakes. 

Here are just some extra weird ways to help you learn:  ● Use region-specfic social media (Weibo for Chinese, Kakao Talk for Korean, etc) ● Narrate in other languages as you commute (e.g. the mysterious man who wears brown cap-toe Oxfords just get his cats turn left and is now entering the supermarket) ● Read newspaper and magazine  ● Change your phone language    ● Get help from your native speaker friends  ● Take notes in other languages

P/s: Do you have any useful methods to learn foreign languages? If yes, please share it down here 🤩⬇️

welcome to the community! i hope you have a lovely time with us :))

Hello! Apologies if this question has been asked before. Is there any way to get a job curating/storing/classifying/cleaning/whatever artifacts without getting a degree? I don’t know much about archaeology but sitting in a back room dusting off pottery shards and sticking them in labeled baggies sounds awesome, honestly I’d far rather do that than do field work anyway lol.

You could try to volunteer, but I don't know how much luck you have. One of the hardest things to do is "get your foot in the door" and being a student is one of the best ways to do that. I very forcefully shoved my foot in the door by seeking out internships with two of the archaeology professors at my university. They already knew me and knew what I was capable of, so they let me work with them. I don't know if the same opportunity would be given to someone they didn't know, and who doesn't have any background education.

I hate to say this because I really do think that archaeology is for everyone, but without any sort of archaeology education I don't think that you could get a paying job doing lab work. There are to many trained archaeologists looking for positions, and not enough job openings, so it doesn't really make sense to hire someone who has no prior knowledge and no credentials.

See if your state (if you're in the US) has an Archaeology Day. It's usually at a State museum, and a lot of different archaeology groups will be there with tables about their programs. This is probably the best place to inquire about any sort of lab work volunteering.

Reposting because the only contact I got on my sideblog was from some guy who tried to use me for money laundering...

Hi. My parents have made their monetary support for me contingent on whether I get into pharmacy school in Canada. I myself am attending pharmacy school in Pakistan.

They are not helping me pay application fees and I have no disposable income because we can get expelled/suspended for working. It's not legal but no one exactly cares here.

I posted this on my other account but got little to no traction.

I need to get out of here because I don't want to be assaulted or killed for being queer.

I am trying to raise money to pay for the fees, here's a breakdown: it's $125 CAD for USask (or $88 USD), $215 for Uwaterloo, and $250 for UofT. If I get more than this, I'll apply to one or two others as well.

I'm hoping for USask so I can bunk with someone I know there.

0 / $700 CAD

or, 0 / $500 USD
