| Oct 7, 2021 at 17:58 | comment | added | AppliedAcademic | @Wetenschaap- glad to know about strategic memory decline, thanks. I don't intuitively associate an aging body with memory, (physical decline, like your all-nighter example comes to mind instead), hence the dissonance with the specific term. The phrase 'mind and body' implicitly suggests a separation between the two, but that may just be semantics. | |
| Oct 7, 2021 at 17:48 | comment | added | user116675 | @AppliedAcademic 'Aging' is also relative. That's the entire point of that bit! Strategic memory, which helps with remembering names and numbers (and is therefore likely most relevant for undergraduate students in India, where I understand the focus to be more on rote learning), begins to decline at age 20. When you're 25, you can no longer do things you could do when you were 20. When you're 40, you can no longer do things you could do when you were 30. I really don't see what is so controversial about that. | |
| Oct 7, 2021 at 17:20 | comment | added | AppliedAcademic | @Wetenschaap - Well, 'younger' is relative, and the 15 hour study periods refer to the OPs high school tenure (or thereabouts). So technically they have 'aged' since high school, but are you really suggesting that a 21 year old (median) has an aging body? | |
| Oct 7, 2021 at 3:52 | comment | added | preeti | here is the catch again. I used to take regular breaks. It is not like that I studied 10 hrs in 1 go. I studied for 45 mins and 15 mins break. As well as I used to do yoga in the morning so that I can relax myself. Still, I get burn out it is pretty sad. But If I study a bit less say 5-6 hrs per day, I don't get burn out but my performance drops as I fail to finish studying all topics. | |
| Oct 6, 2021 at 17:00 | comment | added | user116675 | @AppliedAcademic Literal quote from the OP: "I actually used to study even more around 15 hrs everyday when I was younger." | |
| Oct 6, 2021 at 16:57 | comment | added | AppliedAcademic | Nice answer, but the point on aging seems a little incongruous. Going by the context, the questioner is only around 18-24 years old. | |
