Studying doesn’t have to feel like a slog. The truth is: your brain isn’t built to drag through hours of tedium—it responds best to pattern, reward and rhythm. By shifting how you approach study time, you can turn it from duty into something your brain actually enjoys. Here are five simple, smart ways to do it. Try one today and see how your focus follows. 1. Study in Short Bursts, Not Endless Sessions Forget the idea that you must sit for three hours straight. Cognitive science shows our attention drops significantly after about 25–30 minutes. So use the Pomodoro Technique : study for 25 minutes, take a 5‑minute break; after four rounds, give yourself a longer break (15–20 minutes). That rhythm gives your brain permission to reset—and makes that “next block” easier to start. 2. Turn Learning into a Game The brain loves victory—even tiny ones. Set fun micro‑challenges: finish chapter one in 20 minutes, get 10 questions right in a row, or beat yesterday’s time. E...
Paper 1 1. All your burette reading (initial and final) as well as size of the pipette must be recorded, but no experimental procedure is required. All calculations must be done on this question paper. A is a solution containing 0.15moldm -3 HNO 3 . B is a solution containing 4.20gdm -3 of X 2 CO 3 salt. Put A into the burette and titrate against 20cm 3 or 25cm 3 portion of B using methyl orange as an indicator. Repeat the titration three more times and record your results in the table below.
