Hey guys I've started physics a few weeks ago and it seems like I have to study like 3 hours a day to keep up with the class and the material. How long do you guys study / week?

You can't have had more than a few hours of class every day?berkeman said:Pfftt. When I was in undergrad, I studied about 60 hours per week outside of class. When I was working at a startup, I worked 60-90 hour weeks. Now it's down to a more regular 40 hours a week. 3 hours a day?...

G01 said:8 hours/day is not unreasonable. It is common for people to put this much time and more into their school work. If you can do it in less time, good for you, but that's no reason to laugh at those who work hard.
If that's true, you are really godlike to me.berkeman said:Pfftt. When I was in undergrad, I studied about 60 hours per week outside of class. When I was working at a startup, I worked 60-90 hour weeks. Now it's down to a more regular 40 hours a week. 3 hours a day?...
The answer to this question may vary greatly depending on the individual and their specific course load. However, on average, a physics student may spend anywhere from 10-20 hours per week studying the subject.
While it is important to maintain a consistent study schedule, it is not necessary to study physics every single day. Many students find it helpful to have designated study days or certain blocks of time throughout the week dedicated to physics.
There are various study techniques that may work well for studying physics, such as practicing problems, creating concept maps, or creating flashcards. It is important to find a study method that works best for you and your learning style.
Balancing multiple subjects and responsibilities can be challenging, but it is important to prioritize and manage your time efficiently. It may be helpful to create a study schedule and make sure to take breaks and maintain a healthy work-life balance.
This can vary depending on the individual and their understanding of the material. However, it is generally recommended to spend at least 2-3 hours studying outside of class for every hour spent in class. This may be adjusted based on your personal needs and the difficulty of the material.
