School Tips: Staying Organized

[TheMarias123]

Thakx and u are the best well thakx

[Bri10anna10]

thanks for the help! i always did that all the time lol wrote every single word for word when the teacher wrote it and they always tell me not to do that and put it in my own words.. :/ even my parents help me they see i dont put notes in my own words lol it can be difficult at times for me to use my own words..

[LaGreekful]

Where can I buy this Big Notebook? I live in Germany so I don't know what it really is :( And how many sheets of paper are in it? :>

[alma942]

OMG im filipino too i speak tagalog

[Labella821]

It really helped thank you so much :) :)

[makay781]

@36reyrey you cvan get them at staples but I dont know where she got hers but there are some at staples

[gimmepb]

You're filipino, too ? I'm Tagalog :) (Well half, I'm a quarter German and a quarter Irish)

And I was raised in Hawaii, too :D:D:D (Not born though :P)

I'm from O'ahu :P

And thanks for the tips to stay organized!

[nikkithebrat]

@gimmepb - Yes I'm Filipina :). 

[MsLolcakes101]

@nikkithebrat yeah asians rule ^_^!!!!!!!!!!!

[MsGabby1423]

@gimmepb you guys are soo lucky to have been raised in Hawaii.. especially O'ahu ! :( LUCKKYYY !!

[tinateeni]

I'm going to school for pre-pharm too! I'm a freshman. Do you have any advice?? 

[nikkithebrat]

@tinateeni - My advice is to really commit to your science courses (bio, chem, o-chem, microbio) because they will look at your science GPA very closely :)

[rilakkuma845]

the day affter agust 25 is my birth day yay!!!

[wantsomecc]

MICRO? WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO SCHOOL FOR?

[nikkithebrat]

@wantsomecc - pre-pharmacy

[36reyrey]

where did you buy your ruler

[thisism13]

okay. now pleaseee give me tips to memorize microbiology.. lol.. help! =D

[nikkithebrat]

@thisism13 - Microbiology was tricky, I spent a lot of time making study guides for those exams and that really helped. Simplify the material so you get the general idea of concepts. I know if microbio there's lots of definitions so I suggest making a vocab list for each chapter. It's an interesting subject, just lots of detailed information!

[ilikeitiloveit19]

@thisism13 i took micro last semester && it was a huge hassle but def worth it! i drew LOTS of pictures and re wrote notes so many times to learn all the mechanisms & terms. i had a professor who did type k questions so i had to know almost everything for an exam. its also how a professor tests so if he/she does essay or short answer def come up with possible questions and answer them like you would for the test! best of luck!

[thisism13]

@ilikeitiloveit19 thank u so much.=D this question may be weird, but i think i need to ask. usually when people REwrite notes, do you mean write scrap notes or u rewrite proper ones many times? because i dunno for me, when i rewrite proper ones with colours and such, i tend to spend too much time. What do you think?

[TheGLOSSette]

i would still used a binder or pocket folder for classes where i take notes in a spiral notebook cuz that notebooks is strictley for taking notes and you are gonna have your syllabus at least or few other sheets of paper for that one class where you need to store in the binder/folder

[nikkithebrat]

@TheGLOSSette - It's all preference, it's really up to you what supplies you choose to use. As always these are my tips, just suggestions you don't have to follow what I say exactly :)

[TheGLOSSette]

@nikkithebrat oh im just stating what i would do lol... love ur school vids u should make more of them :)

[TotallyPandaable]

Love you videos but why are you called "brat" because your fa from a brat

[nikkithebrat]

@TotallyPandaable - just an old nickname. I'm not really a brat though, it's too bad I can't change my username!

[TotallyPandaable]

@nikkithebrat thats cute <3

[RihannaMusicCentral]

Hi! Thank'you!.. So much! This series helped me greatly! .. I wasn't really organized and I would forget my homework's etc. and this got me back on track!:D

[gh4talbott]

that's so cool

[MusicCutie333]

what about staying organized for homeschooling?

[nikkithebrat]

@MusicCutie333 - I'm sure you'd keep all your homework and notes organized in the same fashion. I've never been home schooled so I'm not sure of the differences.

[nerdyrosebud]

This video is soo helpful but i do have one question what about math, how do you study for that because my moms llike study for math and im like i dont kno how to..

[nikkithebrat]

@nerdyrosebud - For math it's all about practice. Do practice problems at the end of the chapters and review previous homework problems.

[ashlynselent]

Thanks a bunch! I gave him is new, organized binder the day before I left for vacation and I'm anxious to see how he has done without me there to help keep him organized.

[ashlynselent]

Questions:

What editing program do you use for your video?

I love to organize and this insanely unorganized guy ask me to organize his binder. Any ideas on organizing a guy's binder. I want to make it easy for him to keep organized after I clean it out.

Thanks and I love your videos!

Ashlyn

[nikkithebrat]

@ashlynselent - Hi Ashlyn! I use iMovie '09. I recommend using the same tips for organizing his binder. Definitely use subject dividers with pockets.

[Nicciluvable]

ur mad 4 hello kitty n zebra stripes hehe sweet

[TheWhoo009]

i love you vids and your really awesome

[NeonDuckTape123456]

Thanks for telling me that! :)



[xSimplicity3]

[teenstylexoxox]

Can You do a video for how to break up your time wisley, and things like that all about school assignments? (I hope that made sense haha)

[nikkithebrat]

@teenstylexoxox - Yes, great request! I'll be doing a new and updated school organization video and I'll be sure to put that in.

[teenstylexoxox]

[Lable4Ya]

Where would you get the punch hole/ruler thingy i can't find it anywhere?

[nikkithebrat]

@Lable4Ya - I got it such a long time ago.. umm I would check Walmart and Office Max. That's where I get ALL my school supplies.

[Lable4Ya]

@nikkithebrat Ok thank you soo much, I've been trying to find one and I finally found one in my fave color, green :). I love your school tips videos!

[ilovemypeepsvwv]

i have a Questionn that's been bothering me.

How Do People stay Organized with Folders for each class when it only has 2 pockets? I dont understand why they would use folders instead of binders?

Lol -_-

[nikkithebrat]

@ilovemypeepsvwv - Some people bring a folder to hold papers they need for that particular day. Just so your bag is lighter and you don't have too much excess. And later they would file those papers into a larger binder at home.

[AnnaSavedAcat]

You're so cute! And I love your videos. Very natural!

[nikkithebrat]

@AnnaSavedAcat - Thanks so much!

[CupppyCake77]

@hellokittydiva1 WTF... DO YOU HAVE A PROBLEM? BITCH. you have no life coming on here just to be downright rude. were you raised by animals? seriously. at least this girl, who is BEAUTIFUL, KIND, AND INTELLIGENT BY THE WAY, is sacrificing her time by making helpful videos to share on youtube. smarten up and grow a brain, loser.

[nikkithebrat]

@hellokittydiva1 - To be cool? I've loved hello kitty since elementary. I know there are some girls who like hello kitty because it's popular but I don't call them bitches & hoes. They have every right to like what they want to like.

[neonearth]

@hellokittydiva1 u must be a canadian to hate hello kitty us asians like everything right asians!!!????

[MsCusma]

You're really pretty :)

[aandhtacos]

[surpingbutterfly]

[nikkithebrat]

[Alyersa]

can you please make a vid about being a pre-pharmacy major?? is it hard? how are the classes? is the PCAT difficult? how much studying would you say you have to do to pass?

[missblanquita10]

Great video!

I am a Biology major as well :)

[CrystalCee1]

awesome videos. is biology good to study. i'm 14 and going to maybe study marine biology, depends on my final results in school, i want to study drama and i do acting etc just incase i dont get far in that type of job i'm thinking of biology, is it good hee, and also what qualifications did you need to do biology ;/ thanks xx ;]

[nikkithebrat]

@CrystalCee1 - It all depends on your preferance. Biology, the study of life, is interesting to me, but it can cover a wide variety of things. I go to a university that specializes in marine biology and you have to really love it to major it in. The qualifications are quite hard, it's like any other science class that requires a lecture class and a lab (usually 4-5 credits).

[CrystalCee1]

@CrystalCee1 Thanks Alot For The Info xx :)

[sgarcia1221]

awesome video! hope you enjoy this upcoming semester!

[tohruhonda210]

hey, you're taking microbio and organic chem, just like me!! just curious, whats your major?? :)
