What are some effective ways to study a 1000 page book thoroughly within 100 days?

  • I have a mathematics book, with more than 1000 pages and 35 chapters, which I want to study thoroughly. I know reading it continuously won't be enough as learning mathematics requires practice. I'm quite good with numbers and I have all prerequisite knowledge, as mentioned in preface, to start but the topic of this book is completely new to me. Please suggest how much time I need to devote daily for studying and write some effective tips also. Thanks in anticipation.

  • Answer:

    If you  know how to use your intelligence adequately  and basic knowledge on the materials discussed in the book to start with, yes. The effective ways to have those two conditions may require years.

Read 1000 1000 paged books. Gain experience. Picture the words as well as pretend you are having a conversation in your head. (Verbal + Visual) Feedback. Write three sentences per chapter. Review these every time you read a chapter. Take your time. 100 days is only 10 pages per day. Heck, read 20 pages a day. Memorize the titles of the chapters (if no title, make one after you read) and memorize the titles in order. This will greatly help you make sure that you don't forget a huge chunk of information. Review these and the 3 sentences after each chapter. *Bonus tip: get a timer, like one you cook with, and set it so that you never have to check the clock for how long you have left (it greatly increases concentration to never have to look up). *Edit As for math books Read the way to do the problems Do all of the problems Explain in pictures and words why the solution works. Example: Area = base(height) Ok got it. Do the problems: 2(6)=12...... Done. Why does it work? Imagine it like a grid. b(h) finds how many little squares are in the big square. That's what area is.
