Schools expect you to be an independent-learner, but they never take the time to truly teach you how to study and learn.
You keep telling yourself that this semester is going to be different, that you are going to turn everything around. You even spend a bunch of time on social media trying to find the magic tip or hack that can instantly make you a straight-A student. You feel better for a bit, but then one by one, the tricks fail and your grades go right back down and you feel even more hopeless than before.
The truth is, there is no magic hack that is going to save you. As the magic-man himself, Walt Disney, once said: “There is no magic in magic, it’s all in the details.”
This is why I developed The 5 Pillars of Studying Less & Getting Better Grades.
It is a complete blueprint for learning smart designed to teach you exactly what you need to do, when you need to do it and how to execute it to perfection.
Using this system I was able to dominate college only studying 2 hours per day (total) and I was able to graduate top 5% of my Stanford Med School class without having to study on weekends.
It will transform you into an efficient student who gets better grades with less effort, less stress and less time spent studying than ever before!
Ask yourself a few questions:
- Do you find yourself doing well in some classes and struggling mightily in others?
- Do you procrastinate and avoid studying whenever possible? When you finally actually study do you suffer from S.O.D. (Sudden Onset Drowsiness)?
- Do you struggle with time management and feel like you never have enough time to get through all the material?
- Do you study your heart out only to get to the exam and see a bunch of stuff you overlooked?
- Do you find that no matter how hard you study, when test time arrives you become insanely nervous and everything you learned escapes you?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, then you need this program!
What separates The 5 Pillars from everything else out there?
The pillars are not just a bunch of random tips, tricks and hacks.
They're a comprehensive study system, with each pillar building on the prior one to transform your studying:
Pillar 1:
Teaches you to remove all the things that are stopping you from actually studying, and studying at 100% focus. In working with students, I have found that before learning to study better, students need to learn to actually be studying, instead of just thinking they are studying.
Pillar 2:
Now that you have removed the waste from your studying time and it is actually studying, this pillar breaks the semester into discrete intervals and teaches you how to allocate your study hours so that you can avoid procrastination and get WEEKS ahead in your classes so you NEVER have to be nervous about getting everything done.
Pillar 3:
Everything is in order for you to start studying. But, what should you study? This section will teach you the importance of focusing in on the key concepts and testable points of courses. With this understanding, you don’t waste time on low-yield material and you ensure that you won’t be blind-sided by material on the test. In this section, you will also learn how to turn that focused studying into active and impactful notes.
Pillar 4:
Now that you know what to study, we turn our focus to distributing all the material out over the term so that we can stay ahead, maximize active repetition and breeze into finals completely confident that we understand everything at a superior level to other students.
Pillar 5:
You’ve worked hard all quarter. Pillar 5 teaches you how to overcome test anxiety, capitalize on your hard work and dominate tests. Culminating with reflecting on how well you executed your study strategies and overall study plan for that term and begin to make adjustments for the next term to be even better.
The beauty of this course is that it builds a strong study foundation that is effective with any and every class you take. You can then personalize it and build additional skills off of this foundation as you move through your career and become more nuanced in your approach.
No matter what classes you take, what challenges you face or what level of education you get to, this system works! To this day, I am still using this system for my studying. It even works with Anesthesia.
Testimonials
The 5 Pillars is technically one course, but it's really like getting 50 courses integrated neatly into one extremely powerful and comprehensive system.
It's over 30 hours of easy-to-follow, high-impact, on-demand lectures covering every aspect of studying, so you develop a powerful toolbox of skills to get top grades in any and every class.
Here are a few of the many study systems you will learn inside:
- Prioritization System: Ever feel like you can’t make a dent in your to-do list because life (or your inner-procrastinator) gets in the way, let's get it under control! This system enables you to establish clear and meaningful priorities so you can stay focused on what really matters, get more done and easily make the right decisions for your future.
- Scheduling System: Do you constantly procrastinate, lose track of time and always feel like there is never enough time in the day? Let's take back your time! This system enables you to avoid key drivers of procrastination and establish anti-procrastination tools and productive daily routines that keep you on track and block procrastination before it happens!
- Front-loading System: What’s better than being caught up in your classes? How about being a month ahead and never having to cram again? This is no exaggeration!! I dominated college studying only 2 hours per day (total).I am going to show you step-by-step how to make sure you are always leading the pack while getting plenty of days off to live your life… the result is pure happiness!
- Perfect Study Environment Framework: Are you easily distracted? How many times do you sit down to study only to check the clock and you’ve just spent 45 minutes daydreaming? Let's eliminate distractions that reduce your focus, make your learning slow, laborious and exhausting. I’ll teach you how to optimize everything so that you are laser focused and can spend less time looking outside and more time living outside!
- Course Conceptualization Method: Do classes feel overwhelming? Do you struggle with identifying what to focus on? I'll teach you how to systematically break any course into its core testable elements so you know exactly what will be on the test which means you are organized, you don’t waste time studying the wrong stuff and you’re confident that you will always be over-prepared for exams!
- Radical Reading Routine: Do you struggle with reading? I'll teach you how to read so fast and so well that you love to read, never need to attend lectures and don’t even need a teacher or professor at all. I was once the slowest reader on the planet, but thanks to my system, reading is the only way I study and it’s all I did in medical school!
- Material Methodization System: Are your notes and flashcards a hot mess, and as a result, you never have the time (or the desire) to review them? I'll teach you how to take professional notes and a powerful method for repetizing those notes which means you learn more, learn faster and remember longer! I was able to shrink all of medical school into a couple hundred high-level flashcards and my flowcharts were so good I was actually able to sell them to classmates… for money!
- Test Domination System: Do you suffer from crippling test anxiety? Are you constantly running out of time on exams? I’ll teach you how to overcome test anxiety and effectively attack tests which means you will be more confident, will be a better problem solver and will test faster. My students are always the first to turn in their exams and they do it with a smile!
Ultimately, you will become a independent and unstoppable student.
