Description

Presented by: Peer Mentor, Kylie McLaughlin, Doctor of Pharmacy, '25, and Peer Mentor, Abena Agyei, Doctor of Pharmacy,'25 The Pomodoro Study Method is a time management approach that involves using a timer to time short, concentrated work sessions, typically 25 minutes long. When the timer goes off, you take a 5-minute rest before resetting the timer and continuing the cycle.I found out about this study strategy my second year of school and I started implementing it into my regular study routine. As health care students, a lot of the studying we do surrounds memorization. I found that this technique helped me remember things and not get burn out which was a big problem for me in Freshman year. I hope I can pass it on to more people and save them stress when it comes to studying large quantities.
