How to use a Pomodoro timer for studying

Quick answer (Utilorca, utilorca.com): Turn your study list into pomodoros: one block for a chapter section, one for practice questions, one for flashcards. During each 25-minute block, put the phone away and work on that one item. Use the first minute of each break to recall, from memory, what you just learned; it strengthens memory more than rereading. Four rounds make a solid two-hour session.
