the more u study in college does not correlate to u getting better grades

I don't know who needs to hear this, but the amount of hours that you study in college does not directly correlate to your grades. Actually, take it as a mechanical engineer at a pretty darn hard school who had to learn it the hard way. Here's what I mean and here's how you're gonna fix it. Hello, I'm Nids Secret. I'm a college student. Nids Secret gives you advice, college advice, social advice. You should check out my page, yo. Follow. Let me break it down to you guys. I will give you a very good example, chemistry. Gen Chem. Oh my gosh, I studied and I took my first test for Gen Chem. I was not taking it too seriously. I got like my first C on it. I was like, oh, whoa. Okay, let me lock in. I went and sat in the library and studied. I said, okay, I'm setting for hours. I'm gonna get a good grade on the test. I did worse. I was like, oh my gosh, like that was my first semester of college. I genuinely was like, wow, I'm stupid. I don't think I'm built for mechanical college. I like tweaked out. But then it's that switch that happened when I started realizing, okay, me studying for hours a week before a test isn't doing jack. What you need to do is hard classes, you should understand the content. Go to office hours each week, you should be understanding the content. And whether that's you going to office hours, you actually doing the homework. I know. Do at least a few questions. Don't just check the whole thing. Like you need to understand the material up until then. And that's why you're not gonna be spending freaking hours studying. You're not doing that anymore. You're gonna study still, but it's not gonna feel like you wasted all your time and you're gonna get a bad grade. Period. The biggest thing is studying isn't your learning. It's your practice. Okay? So that first week, that week before your test is the week of practice, okay? So you need to make sure you understand the material up until then. And that's why you're not gonna be spending freaking hours studying. You're not doing that anymore. You're gonna study still, but it's not gonna feel like you wasted all your time and you're gonna get a bad grade. Period.
