 So should you go to class in medical school? Now here are the three questions that I asked myself to help me understand that going to lecture actually wasn't the best thing. Number one was class of mandatory. For me, it wasn't so it was much easier for me to actually be able to learn from the comfort of my own home, actually be able to try some other techniques instead of just paying attention to somebody reading from the slot. Number two, what was your percentage of retention? I knew for example, if I went to lecture after 60 minutes, maybe I remember 20 to 30% of that lecture. That means maybe 40 minutes had just gone to be wasted. Instead on the flip side, I could have easily speed watched a lecture at 2X. But I used that extra bit of time to get more repetitions and flashcards in to actually understand the material. And then finally, number three, does going to lecture actually help improve or does it worsen my flow for my day? For me, not physically having to go to school to attend lecture allowed me to go get a workout nearby where I lived, come back home, watch the lectures on my computer and the cover of my apartment and waste very little time in terms of the studying that I needed to do for the day. So for all those three reasons, I chose not to go to class.
