Struggling to Review After Long Lectures — 5 Hours of Class = 50 Pages? How Do You Handle This?
I’ve been facing a problem with my study routine and wanted to know how others deal with it.
After attending a 5-hour morning class, I come back home and try to revise the same material from the textbook. But I get overwhelmed because that single session covers nearly 50 pages of content.
When I try reading it for the first time after class, everything feels very complex. My understanding is slow—I can barely manage about 1 page per hour because I’m trying to process everything deeply instead of just skimming.
By the time I finish even a small portion, I already feel behind and mentally exhausted.
How do you handle situations like this?
- Do you revise immediately after class or take a break first?
- Do you focus on understanding or just quick revision on the same day?
- Any strategies to make large lecture content easier to absorb without feeling stuck?
Would really appreciate practical methods that work for long lecture-heavy days.
