Most students think studying means reading their notes again and again. But here’s the problėm: rereading creates the illusion that you understand the material when your braïn is really just recognizing it.
If you want information to stick, you need Active Recall.
Active recall means forcïng your braïn to retrieve information from memory instead of passively reading it. That effort is what strengthens your memory and improves long-term retention.
Stop rereading. Start recalling.
That’s how you study smarter, not harder.
