Hey! So as some of you may have heard Ramadan just came in (woott) and Muslims all over the world will restrain from food and drink from sunrise to sunset for the next 30 days! I was wondering if anyone had any study strategies for this month. I took off from work till my Mcat test day (8-23) and Ramadhan ends about 3-4 days before my exam. So I'm not taking the exam while fasting but certainly will be studying for it while fasting.
Any recommendations? I was thinking studying after eating a nourishing meal around 4AM till 1PM. Sleeping till about 4-5P. Review some more from 5-7. Break fast. Eat a meal. Hit the gym lift some weights. Come back eat dinner around 11. Then sleep at 12 wake up at 3 and repeat. I've read articles about how humans are evolutionarily more efficient at sleeping when doing it in pieces (2REM cycles around 180 mins each time twice) so I'm going to test out this 3 hour sleep deal.
Anyone have any recommendations? Any ramadan Mcat veterans on the forum?
