Exam Study Expert: ace your exams with the science of learning

171. Five New Exam Tips – Inspired By Pilots, Paramedics & Ancient Chinese Wisdom


Listen Later

Today's episode is all about taking core principles from other domains, and using them to help us study smarter and ace our exams.

We'll be asking paramedics and emergency responders to help us respond to answers better.

Musicians will teach us valuable lessons about preparing for the performance (or exam) not just being able to succeed well in the rehearsal (or pre-exam study).

We'll learn when less can be more from athletes.

High-end chefs will show us a thing or two about maintaining an efficient workstation.

We'll even use some ancient Chinese wisdom to sort our kit out.

Should be a fun and interesting listen - enjoy!
