    Top Tips

    Know yourself

    • How, when and where do you study best?
    • What motivates, rewards and distracts you?

    Priority Matrix

    • Put tasks into a ‘Priority Matrix’. 
    • Know the difference between 'important' and 'urgent' tasks.

    Use calendars and planners

    • Colour code your week and allocate slots for studying.
    • Break big projects into smaller tasks, each with a deadline.

    Try the Pomodoro method

    • Working in 25-minute bursts (with a 5-minute break in between) helps with concentration.

    Use technology to help you

    • Calendars, productivity apps, reminders and to-do lists such as Drop Task and Wunderlist.
    • Get started by looking at 'No DSA software? No problem'.

    Routines are more powerful than willpower

    • But they take time to establish. So get started!
