How to Ace your Exams : The Method to Mastery

via Skillshare

Overview

As a student, one of the most important skills to develop is learning how to learn. To be honest, the entire learning experience of school isn’t geared toward your academic success because schools don’t teach you how to study. Without direction, you could easily be wasting hours of valuable time with ineffective study methods to prepare for your exams. After spending years in school, we've discovered the essential tools every student needs to excel and we've packaged it into a complete study system.

We’re sharing what we’ve learned through decades of experience in school. Using only the best scientifically proven study methods, we’ve conquered EMT school, business school, real estate school, graduate masters programs, and medical school just to name a few. But we don't want to waste your time explaining the research or science behind these study methods. We want to get you results, and we want it to be painless and applicable for students at every level. Method to Mastery breaks everything down. This is a step-by-step guide for you to use to achieve peace of mind knowing you’re studying the right way.

Actionable things you’ll get from this course :

  • how to create a flexible and detailed study plan
  • how to use the best scientifically proven study strategies
  • detailed walkthroughs for implementing your studies
  • how to use RemNote, the most powerful study tool
  • Unique memorization and study tips
  • Test Taking Strategies

A little about us, we’re Mike and Matty. Mike is a physician, and Matty is in medical school. We grew up very fortunate to refugee parents who worked tirelessly to provide us with all the tools we needed to succeed. Their story is tragic, but when faced with adversity, they only worked harder. That mentality was our driving force in doing the same, and we want to share what we’ve learned on our own journey to help you succeed. That’s why we created the Method to Mastery. 

Because in the end, our motivation was to find a way to study smarter and study less so we can enjoy our lives and do what we love. Method to Mastery is how we were able to start a YouTube channel, produce music on Spotify, start a business, and pursue multiple degrees simultaneously while in medical school and residency. And we still have time for friends, family and connecting with awesome people like YOU. We truly hope you gain some valuable and actionable direction from our course! Feel free to drop us a comment or send us a message anytime, we’d be happy to further help you in your journey however we can!
