Watch this video ad-free on Nebula: https://nebula.tv/videos/zach-highley-how-i-take-0-notes-in-medical-school At the beginning of medical school, I was overwhelmed by the amount of information I had to learn in a short amount of time. My normal note-taking strategy was taking too much time and I was falling behind. I needed to change my study strategy. What followed was an all-encompassing reworking of how I spent my time. The results? My grades went up and I studied less. How is that possible? In this video, I will show you how I take 0, notes in medical school now score better, and study less. Written Guide: https://www.zhighley.com/how-i-take-0-notes-in-medical-school/ Summarizing, highlighting, and rereading are poor studying strategies. Active recall, spaced repetition, and practice testing are evidence-based and effective studying strategies. The basis of this strategy revolves around those three "pillars" of studying. I outline the evidence for this strategy in the two videos below: Evidence Video 1 (What strategies are bad and what are good): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6adMAch2tSg&t=0s Evidence Video 2 (Spaced Repetition): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4BcXR5t7XoU Beginner Anki Guide (General): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5urUZUWoTLo Pomodoro Technique: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNBmG24djoY Feynman Technique: https://youtu.be/_f-qkGJBPts Here are some of my other videos: My Beginner Guide to the AnKing Deck: https://youtu.be/gbi90aa-h3I How I Study For Exams in Medical School | 9 Day Plan: https://youtu.be/2oXhLCAWgkI How to use Anki like a Pro | Med School Guide: https://youtu.be/L33_JNGid4M My Medical School Essentials: https://youtu.be/-0buIgTtQD8 The Best Daily Workflow for Medical School: https://youtu.be/vj4lh9RCFzw Day in The Life of a Medical Student (Vlog): https://youtu.be/gd07pRoBAcI Medical school finals week (Vlog): https://youtu.be/j4_Zy9eb510 Timestamps: 0:00 Intro 1:03 Plan 2:09 Preview 6:05 View 6:40 Review 7:30 Practice Test 8:32 Repeat 9:31 Summary --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Who am I: My name is Zach. I'm a second-year medical student in Philadelphia. I make videos about medical school, entrepreneurship, and other cool things. I love trying new things and often mess up. However, every time I screw up I usually learn something. Whatever I learn I post either on YouTube or my website 🌐 (https://zhighley.com/). I write a weekly newsletter 💌 (https://zhighley.com/newsletter/) linking the best things I read, watched, and listened to that week.
