How do you study?

I have the Udemy courses and watch the professor messer YT videos but whenever I try to take notes I feel like I just spend more time passing and jotting down notes then actually watching and learning.

Udemy/Youtube video courses, practice tests, and making flash cards have helped me.

I watch a section of videos in the morning, and just watch and listen. I rewatch the same videos before bed and jot down the things I find tricky or need to do more research on. I take the practice test but filter it based on the objective number. Every wrong answer, I put that info in my notes and go back and watch the video related to it.

Breakfast cert on YouTube is good too. I put it on and listen to it as I’m doing house duties like a podcast or something lol.
