I'm studying for a test and the only resources I have are the presentations and somebody's notes in text form. It's a knowledge-retrieval test (no counting/reasoning), and unfortunately I don't know what the questions look like so it seems I really will have to go through everything covered.
Now of course some inanimate notes and a PPT file are the most un-captivating learning format that a person with ADHD could face. One thing I'm good at is going down rabbitholes, so I thought about just googling questions I have about the things written on each page. But the notes go on for 60 pages and it would take a really really long time. I'm lost for ideas. Has anybody found any learning techniques that help when focusing on things as bland as this?
No idea if this would work, just throwing spaghetti at the wall -- imagine you're a test maker and need to make a 20 question multiple choice quiz on the material. Make up questions including the right and wrong answers, you'll learn by making the quiz.
That's actually a great idea. There is a chance that they don't pick the same questions, so just keep cranking out questions until you know it all!
Heyy that's a good idea! Yet another instance where tipping the problem on its head helps
