Try breaking a large task into smaller chunks or pieces. If you have to read a long book or many books, read a couple of chapters and take a break. If you have to cover a variety of topics, you can try to take breaks between topics. When you switch to a new topic try to find connections to the previous topic. This will help you remember the information. Try to make up examples that are real or relevant to your life, like if you are studying chemistry and are interested in food, think about chemistry in terms of food. Making up examples that apply to real life will help to. Try to take a short 5 minute break every 20-30 minutes, and then at the end of the hour take a 10-15 min break. I actually work at a university and have a lot of suggestions. Feel free to message me for more.

the one you take at the end of high school. i'm from italy and it's called maturità, it's like the most important exam of your life and i'm treating it as if it was a piece of cake

@giuseppe I would say what helps me is structured time like I’ll write down my whole day and take periodic breaks so I don’t burn out. Focus first on what your struggling the most with and then figure out how long you can study for without losing focus. Take breaks and listening to music helps as well. Hope it goes well!

Anxious about everything
Guys I need help. I feel so alone . Basically I have this compulsion where I feel the need to write everything but this stems from me being anxious about EVERYTHING. Like my mom came in my room and I was irritated and snapped, immediately regretted now I keep writing “don’t be mean to mom next time” but I keep thinking about it. Then I think about how I finally left my house today and all the surfaces I touched that could’ve been contaminated and now I’m writing “next time don’t touch this and this”. Then I think about all the things I need to be doing for this week and I’m writing “don’t forget to do this and this” even though I’ve written it 5 times already. This is what happens everyday btw. My brain always thinks about something I need to be doing and making me anxious that I’ll forget it which is why I write it down on my notes app. I’m sooo mentally exhausted I need help pls!! Anyone have any advice ? I used to think I need to stop the writing but really I need to stop the anxious thoughts coming into my head . People say I need to accept the thoughts and let it go but that’s too hard for me
