  1. 01Studying Alone vs. Studying in a Group

    Hi, everyone. Before exams, I always ask myself the same question: should I study alone or with friends? Today, I'll compare the two based on my own experience.

  2. 02Studying Alone: Focus

    When I study alone, I can focus better. There are no distractions, and I can go at my own speed, slowly on hard topics and quickly on easy ones.

  3. 03Studying Alone: The Downside

    The downside is that when I get stuck, nobody can help me. Also, it's easy to lose motivation and check my phone instead.

  4. 04Studying in a Group: Help and Energy

    In a group, friends can explain things I don't understand. And when I explain something to them, I understand it better myself.

  5. 05Studying in a Group: The Downside

    However, groups can easily turn into chatting time. And not everyone studies at the same speed, so someone is always waiting or rushing.

  6. 06My Solution: Use Both

    So my solution is to use both. I study alone when I learn new material. Then, a few days before the exam, I meet my friends to review and test each other.

  7. 07Conclusion

    In conclusion, neither way is always better. It depends on the task. Try mixing both, and see what works for you. Thank you.
