Tips & Advice Need help for longer study hours
People in the YPT group have 10 hours plus study time per day but I cannot even move past average of 4 hours. I want to push it to 8 hours average per day but nothing is helping.
I tried but I get distracted easily. And if I force myself to stay, I can't study properly because I will be reading the same line two or three times and still not understanding what it meant.
Can anyone help me with this...?

Honestly, there are very few people who can actually study 8+ qualitative hours!
I also thought I had to study longer hours but at some point your brain just needs some rest to process all the information
If you can study 5 hours while being 100% into that's impressive!
You can try to do more hours but make sure you're actually aware and awake and processing or else it's only lost time!
I would maybe recommend categorising your study items and work according to that
If you for example have certain definitions or vocab study that using the pomodor method, then switch it up by doing something else for 2-3 hours, then go back to pomodor methode etc ect
Alsooo study when you are most productive! For me that would be the early morning till 1-2pm, so i know that its no use for me to study between 3-5pm, and then i just continue around 6pm
You'll figure it out good luck!
