how to actually study math
(from a harvard student)
1. make your own error log
Write down the exact mistake, then redo a similar problem the next day.
2. solve before watching solutions
Try for 10 minutes first. Even a failed attempt makes the explanation stick.
3. repeat formulas like flashcards
Review formulas fast, then use each one in a real problem right away.
4. practice one hard problem twice
Do it once messy, then redo it clean without looking at your notes.
5. write every step
Skipping steps hides the part you do not understand yet.
Save this before your next math test
