My deepest sympathy for my AP Lit class that has to hear me connect every topic we cover back to the Epic of Gilgamesh. In my defense, it's a beautiful representation of human nature through the ages.

how to study for social studies subjects

I’d like to think that one of my strongest focuses is social studies. I love learning about history, economics, government, e.t.c. and I do well on tests! I thought that most people had it easy when it came to these subjects, but throughout working with peers and friends, I realized that wasn’t true, so here are some tips to get through those subjects: 

Memorizing will be your friend: This is one of my biggest tips that I still use for my social studies subjects. Memorize, memorize, memorize! Of course, you should first understand a concept or term before memorizing it, but it helps so much to know words. I use quizlet and knowt.io to help me memorize, but you can use a variety of ways to remember. This is especially helpful for tests, as you can help fill in the blank when reading through questions and other readings.

Trick your brain: One of the reasons I was so good at social studies subjects was because I was interested in politics and government. I’m really interested in the controversial aspect of politics, which helped me understand forms and branches of government, how the economy works, e.t.c. I’ve recently heard this tip on the internet, where people trick their brain into thinking that the subject they are learning is like lore for a tv show or novel, and it worked. Your brain will probably be more likely to learn if you make it enjoyable.

Use a variety of resources: A lot of social studies subjects will have more interesting and engaging resources to use, rather than like physics with a boring textbook and some reference videos. Topics like politics will have a wide variety of books, articles, news reports, movies, and even TV shows covering them. After understanding the concepts and things you may need to know, watching a political TV show can be a form of studying! You can learn to apply, discuss, and critique different forms and resources to apply to the thing you are studying. 

Find ways to connect to the modern world: Social studies subjects are one of the easiest to connect to the media and the news; you will often find articles and reporters speaking about the economy, what's going on in the supreme court, and who is voting or pushing for what agenda. If you ever need to find examples to help you learn and study, just watch the news! It’s a great resource, and can help you apply what you are learning to the real world. Oftentimes, test-makers will give a question set in a scenario, where a country is going into a recession and you may have to explain ways to solve or help it e.t.c. so the news is a great resource to see it real time.

my oxford literature prof, unprompted:

“so church, right? we all go in and say ‘sorry daddy, i’ve been bad’ and then the priest says ‘ya know what? it’s fine’

and that’s basically all that church is”

My favorite part of The Importance of Being Earnest was when they said “It’s Bunburying time,” and then they Bunburied all over the place.

other good news: my best friend’s solo made me cry (i stayed strong during my other friend’s solo but damn if it wasn’t a close thing). someone gave me an extra rose :] i sang good!!! talked to a few people who i’d always wanted to befriend kinda but just never really got to talk to them but we chatted for a good while after. took many photos ate some okay cake. realized happily that some people actually DO know that i’m queer contrary to popular belief and the person in choir who thought i was homophobic might have just been an outlier. there was something else but i forgor but yippee

#i got. graduation cords and little paper certificates :] #two events down one last one and then i get a goddamn break #i'm so unprepared for this damn AP comp gov test so we're gonna grind like hell tmrw morning!
