Boost Your Exam Focus: How the Pomodoro Technique Can Transform Your Study Sessions

 The Pomodoro Technique is a time-management method designed to boost focus and productivity by breaking work into short, intense intervals, typically with regular breaks in between. Here’s how it works:

1. Choose a Task: Decide what you want to work on (in this case, your Library and Information Science exam topics).
2. Set a Timer for 25 Minutes: During this time, commit to focusing solely on studying. Treat it as a “no distractions” period—no social media, no unrelated activities.
3. Work Intensively: During the 25 minutes, dive deeply into the material. If you find yourself wanting to check your phone or get distracted, remind yourself it’s only for a short time.
4. Take a 5-Minute Break: When the timer rings, give yourself a short break. Stretch, walk around, or grab a quick snack—just avoid social media, as it can lead to longer distractions.
5. Repeat: After 4 cycles (or 2 hours total), take a longer break, like 15-30 minutes.

This method keeps you focused in short bursts and refreshes your mind regularly, making it easier to avoid burnout and stay motivated. Try a few Pomodoros and see how it helps your study flow!
