How many hours does science students study to get 95% or above?

ANSWER -

My dear, studying to get approved and making it great towards 95% and above does not always depend on the hours one studies. But it depends on the sacrificial outputs laid by you or any other that may want to get it high. Also, dedication, constant practice, learning from others and being persistent counts a lot. though, time is good to be considered, but there are students who study more than required, giving all day to their studies yet were unable to grasp anything tangible.

Therefore, I advice, you first understand what you are into. And such thing is, you are into wanting to make it high and great towards your studies. having this awareness will help you grab great deals of knowledge even when you spend just an hour in studying. Because your goal-setting (the awareness) will usually ring bell in your heart, making you a concentrated and serious student.

So, it is important to know that any student who is not serious with studies will not be able to ride high, no matter how long he studies. Nevertheless, as a science students, you should be disciplined enough to study for 4 hours at a time, after which you let what you’ve studied to assimilate. Moreover, you are the personality of yourself and knows yourself better than any other person. As such, you know your study-power and the time limit in which you get exhausted. Work with your strength and never think of working beyond your strength because, it wouldn’t help.

Finally, you may want to culture yourself to go a little higher than your limited time. That’s good anyways. But you must work with time, to enable you know how far you go. Don’t forget to set a goal, make time table, study at least 5 days in a week and also work with different materials, in that the one you get from the teacher is not really enough. With these, you will make it high. One thing you must not also forget is praying to GOD because, he is the Ultimate. Wisdom, knowledge, understanding and directions comes from Him. So, go down on your Knees and ask Him for help. Surely, you are not alone!

Hope this help!

Is google destroying the creative capabilities of students?

ANSWER -

The answer is No!

Anything one have to do is subjected to how disciplined such person is. As such, any student who thinks that google is destroying his creative capabilities does not get it right because, google does not go to people, rather people go to google. As a result of this, anyone students who decides not to go to google, google will not recognize him.

what the above is trying to elucidate is, one can choose to be disciplined and stick to it, by not googling everything for information, especially while on a work of school and college assignments. There are students, yet few who does not depend on google when it comes to putting academic works together. They have made up their minds to stick to their personal-cultured minds so that they grow their creativity. And one secret is this, while one ignore google for certain things to grow their creativity, they get to create things themselves, Things nobody has ever created; and by so doing, you get to be the google of yourself.

The above is tested and true. Anyone can try it. And it is important to note that google does not disrupt the attention of those who never went to it. And also, you may agree with me that there are people who don’t know about google. Yet they exist. Surprised right? But it’s true. So, any person can be the google of himself, thereby growing his creative capabilities.

https://www.quora.com/Studying-on-study-table-or-on-bed-Will-it-make-any-difference

Will studying on study table or bed make any difference?

ANSWER -

Yes, it does!

You see, the posture or position one stays while studying matters a lot. Every posture depicts one thing or the other. And while you study, it is adviced you get on your study table and chair for concentration and focus. If you sit on the bed, you may be tempted to lie down ignorantly and if you attempt to do so, you have divided attention towards your studies.

Distractions while sitting or lying on the bed may come through the following:

fondling with the bed sheet, pillow or any other thing you may have on your bed at the present time. This may not be known to while you do it, because you will be absent minded
You will be tempted to sleep as said earlier. As long as the bed is not the right place for studying, there is a tendency that anyone who studies on bed would sleep off or easily get exhausted. And this is 70% possible. Look at how it works. While lying or sitting on the bed studying, you feel the tenderness of the bed and also enjoy the softness of the it. While this is happening, you will be gradually lured by your brain to lie down and by so doing, you are in for sleeping.
You have body reactions. While you sit on the bed studying, your body will definitely react towards getting tired easily because you are not rightly positioned. Hence, you have back or even waist pain; making you not to last longer while on the work. Apart from these, there are other things that may arise while you are wrongly positioned for studying.

Having yourself on a study table and chair will help you through the following:

You will be very comfortable and enjoy your study period. There would be no tension or body reaction. If any of the recent mentioned occur while on study table, you know that you are naturally exhausted and it’s not caused by your position; Unless you are on the wrong table or chair (Which may be high or lower than you are in height). Thus, studying on a table and chair brings comfortability.
You will not be easily distracted. Any distraction that would come to you while studying on a table and chair is when you are not really concentrated and ready to study, in that it is you, the two furniture and your books. Also, the position will automatically let your eyes fixed on the book, hands on the table and body erected accordingly.
You flow while studying. There would be free flow of communication between you and your book, in the sense that nature made it so. Everything is meant for one thing they must represent. And without being told, study chair and table represents studying, and that’s how it is made. You cannot be on them without flowing, comprehending and assimilating what you study. while Bed is strictly known by all to be a sleeping tool

Therefore, you don’t have to study on the bed and expect the same amount of free flow of communication with one who studies on the study table. the study table is the right place.

https://www.quora.com/What-and-how-long-does-a-speaker-have-to-prepare-for-a-speech

What and how long does a speaker have to prepare for a speech?

It depends on what the speaker want to speak about, how long his speech would take and whom he will be speaking to. These three criteria must be considered before preparing a speech. This is because, some presentation are greater than others in terms of contents, complexity of the topic and how advance they may be. Hence, those ones with lesser contents and difficulty, should be done within a day, while those that are complicated should take a day and half, 2 days or 3 as the case may be. But the maximum time to be considered for a serious speaker to prepare his speech should not exceed 3 days of hard work and research.

For the case of what a speaker have to use to prepare his speech with, they are as follows:

He can use books related to the topic of his speech
Through the internet. google can help out in most cases, but it is not advisable for one to highlight everything and present it as it is in the internet
personal initiative - As a speaker, one should have some knowledge of what he should present and should make a critical thinking on how to take care of it. Everyone is creative and can make out something from his head.

Note: “Though everyone is creative, but no one can create until he starts thinking creatively” - From - GODSON'S PEN

Therefore, one must think creatively on how to make his presentation a better one, by so doing, there would be a good result.

It is also good to learn from others. No one is an island. Most good presenters learn from those who are more experienced than they are, and thereby learning more from them. this is where you see and learn the posture and body movements of a presenter or speaker. Finally, consider body language and learn how to handle it on stage.

https://www.quora.com/What-should-I-do-to-concentrate-on-studies-to-top-in-class

What should I do to concentrate on studies to be a topper in class?

ANSWER -

Dear Friend, you can be the topper of the class IF ONLY determination, dedication, sacrifices and hard work is involved. First, what you should do is to have it known to you that those who are the topper in class are just like you - Just one head as you have; therefore it is absolutely possible for you to be at the top in class.

You have to strictly stick to the above activities in order to make it with the following points:

Place yourself at the top first: Class toppers do not have the notion to see themselves in the 1st position in the class. The set goals above first position, which is not possible, right? Because 1st place is the highest. But that's not it. See yourself as the second class teacher, so that it let you compare what you know with that of the teacher. This will make you study harder, even when you are not in the mood; so that you meet up with your expectation being a second class teacher. As such, a second class teacher is a little bit above the class topper in the class and that would make you fall to be the class topper himself.
Study ahead of the teacher: Every class topper is hardly seen fail any question thrown to him, even when he least expected it. This is because, they study above class level, even beyond the topics are yet to be introduced. That makes them be at the top. This is exactly what you should start doing. It's just sweet if you get used to it. Because, you will always be ready to take any test that comes impromptu.
Use external materials in studying: One cannot easily be a class topper if he studies with just what is been taught in class. Because sometimes, teachers intentionally throw generally accepted external questions related to his subject, but not exactly his subject. Therefore, it is only those who study other materials can make it to this level. This had been tested and declared true. So, use at least 2 text book and 4 at most, coupled with the teacher's materials. That would help!
Do a consistent studying: Class toppers do not stay a day without studying. Because, one day can make them lose intellectual weight. It's just like eating. When you don't eat just for a day, you become weak in strength right? That is how it is applied to studying. Even though you don't study your class material, you should have anything that contributes positively to general knowledge and see through it for the day. That is a serious student's life to become a topper
Sacrifice, dedication, determination, culture, control and discipline: These are the conditions one should self-give to himself. Sacrifice some time. Don't go playing with friends when they are playing, just try as hard as you can to deprive yourself certain playful activities, so that you achieve your aim. Secondly, put all your mind to it and tell yourself; "If i don't cover up, or meet with the level I want, am not gonna stand up for myself". That is dedication, by promising yourself that you MUST make it. Also, dream always to make it with continuous hard work until you make it; This is determination. control yourself. Sometimes, you may have the urge to play with friends, have fun etc. But ignore those things and carry on with your goal. Though it is not easy, but it is for those who really want to make it. And that is discipline and culture.
Above all, call unto God because, He is the knowledge and wisdom Giver. Without him, nothing of this nature can be possible. He never disappoints; Am a living witness. So, go down on your knees and talk to Him.

With the above, see yourself in the next class session be the topper of the class; this is real. Many have followed the above and have attested to their reality; You are not an exception. You'll make it friend!

All best!

I am 19 years old and still have imaginary friends, it really affects my studies and I can't concentrate. How can I get out of this?

ANSWER -

Friend! The imaginary friends you have can be delt with and get rid of your mind. First, before one gets rid of old things for example, he must get new one(s) to replace it. This is a practical sense that must be considered. As such, you need real friends, good ones and companions closer to you, that when you see them you become happy.

This issue is related to psychological stress. If your Family members - both nuclear and extended are closer to you, they are your first and closed friends. Spend time with them in what you like doing; maybe a game, sports, watching tv, spending time out, engaging in conversation and so on. by so doing, you are passing through the exercise of 'psychological revival'. And gradually you will come to forget anything imaginary or fake coming to your thoughts. Do this regularly and focus on your future rather than the past.

Please note: Do not let the above exercise kick you out of your studies and academic activities, as there is time for everything. Keep to time and schedules

The next step you got to make is, think about your future and how important you are than your worries. Don't be negatively minded. always think positively, so that your past experiences will not make ways into you again. Furthermore, when you need company and have no one around, listen to good music, watch entertaining programs on tv, try writing something new on paper or start writing books - It could be anything small or low in detail, just to distract you from all other distractions

Above all, ask God to help you out. Because He is the problem Solver of every problem

I live in India, and I have just been promoted to 10th grade and I want to be a doctor. What should I start reading to improve my general knowledge?
ANSWER -

This is a good question!

My dear, all you need to do is not only what to read to become a doctor. But to start knowing whom a doctor is and his attributes. And that would be achieved through being a good person in terms of taking care of your junior ones and knowing that one day you will be a care-taker of the general public.

Secondly, you got to learn most importantly through visuals. Switch the television with the help of an elderly person and see documentaries of medical practitioners. Learn first aid giving procedures and have a heart to do it. Age isn't a barrier.

Never mind reading advanced book of medical courses now. That would be later, when you are fully into the course. What you should do now is, to study during your spare time some primary scientific medical related books of first aid. This will give you the necessary insight you need to be induced to your field of study.

Lastly, don't be carried away by distractions. 'Pursue you dreams until they stop running' - Godson's pen.
