Yale experts reveal the best study techniques for retention and academic success.

Practice Spaced Repetition—Spread out study sessions over time instead of cramming, for long-lasting learning.

Use Active Recall—Test yourself frequently to retrieve information from memory and strengthen neural connections.

Engage in Interleaved Learning—Mix subjects or topics during study sessions to improve adaptability and understanding.

Avoid multitasking—Focus on one subject to retain more information effectively.

Take frequent breaks using the Pomodoro technique—Work for 25 minutes, rest for 5.

Research shows studying in short, focused sessions enhances productivity and reduces burnout.
