I would recommend the Pomodoro technique when studying. Basically:
1. Study for 20 minutes (set a timer). You may use the app “Hold” to set a timer and earn points. You may also use the “Pomodone” app, which sets a timer that follows the technique. The Pomodone app includes other features like a to-do-list and EverNote.
2. Note any distractions to avoid them
3. Take a 5 minutes break
4. Repeat 1-3
All the best,
