When to start studying for the ACT?
What's your opinion on this, When should students start on studying for the ACT. I think starting in grade 10 summer is the best, but some grade 9 summer practice can help.

Hey Aymaan! It's great that you're thinking about studying for the ACT! Personally, I would start as soon as possible, since freshman and sophomore year of high school are less rigourous comparing to junior and senior year. So, starting your study some time between the beginning/end of 10th grade would be the most effective! 😃 Good Luck to everyone studying!

Personally, this might sound a little harsh, but I place a bunch of college posters up on my room, so that when I see them, I know I should be doing more. Now, this isn’t always the case, since sometimes I’m doing the most I can, but sometimes when you’re burned out, that usually means it’s time to give it a break! Good luck to you and make sure to rest + take the time you need in order to study again! 😃

Pomodoro Technique for focus and productivity
During my school time, it’s really hard for me to stay focused. Math and chem tests, AP homework, and other long-term stuff stresses me off and sometimes I just can’t keep track of things, eventually finding myself scrolling through TikTok. Mid-way through school year, however, I stumbled across these working technique called The Pomodoro Technique. It helped me manage my time efficiently and stay focused and productive. Here’s how I used it: 1)Pick a Task: Choose something specific you want to work on. 2)Timer: Set a timer for 25 minutes. This period is called a "Pomodoro." 3)Work: Focus on your task and work on it without any interruptions until the timer goes off. 4)Take a Short Break: Once the 25 minutes are up, take a 5-minute break. Stretch, walk around, relax, or scroll but don’t overuse this time. 5)Repeat: Do another 25-minute work (another Pomodoro) and take another 5-minute break. 6)Longer Breaks: After completing 4 Pomodoros (4 25-minute work sessions), take a longer break of 15-30 minutes. This helps you recharge before starting another round. Tips - Turn off ALL notifications and create a quiet atmosphere. - Before starting, list what you need to do. - Stick to the Pomodoro sessions and breaks to maintain rhythm.

I use this all the time and it’s amazing way to study! Something I would like to add on to this study method is using active recall after a long break! Basically, active recall is where you set aside your notes/study material, and write down everything you remembered on a piece of paper! This will not only help you memorize 10x better, but also allow you to see which mistakes/missing information you missed from the material you studied using the pomodoro technique!! Good luck to everyone who’s studying! 😃
