Any tips for staying focused on your studies when you’re feeling under the weather?
I’m currently on day 6 of my prep for the May 25 foundation exam. I’m happy to share that I’ve finished my partnership in accounts, completed the IPA in law, and tackled chapter 1 in Q.A. I’m a bit behind in Economics, but I plan to catch up tomorrow!
Unfortunately, I’ve come down with the flu or some kind of viral illness, and it’s tough to concentrate when you’re not feeling well.
By the way, the app I’m using is YPT!

Hey! First off, great job on your progress so far, especially completing your partnership in accounts and moving ahead in law and Q.A! That’s impressive, especially while not feeling your best.
When it comes to studying while you’re under the weather, here are a few tips that might help:
Short Study Sessions: Instead of long hours, try breaking your study time into shorter sessions (like 25-30 minutes). This can make it easier to stay focused, even when you’re not feeling well.
Set Realistic Goals: Given that you’re sick, it’s okay to adjust your study goals. Focus on the most important topics and make sure to give yourself some grace if you don’t cover everything you planned.
Rest and Hydration: Don’t underestimate the importance of rest and staying hydrated. Your body needs energy to fight off the illness, so make sure to balance study time with plenty of breaks.
Create a Comfortable Study Space: Find a cozy place to study where you can easily take breaks if you need to. Having a comfortable environment can help you concentrate better.
Use Active Study Techniques: Instead of passive reading, try summarizing what you’ve learned, teaching it to someone else (even if it’s just to yourself), or using flashcards. This can help maintain your engagement.
Stay Positive: Remember that it’s okay to not be at your best when you’re unwell. Celebrate the small wins, and don’t be too hard on yourself; you’ll bounce back soon!
Wishing you a speedy recovery and good luck with your studies! You’ve got this! 🌟
