If a person were to learn a lot of subjects as efficiently as possible, how would he go on about doing so? Would he do one subject at a time for a given period and then jump to the next one? Or would he do all subjects equally often? Or something else?

Study tips and research tips would be appreciated as well.

hi.
French engineers do this.
The math is globally the same for everything, so you need to master that.
Then I suggest a rotation between the topics in physics you're interested in. One after the other, we did things like
Geometrical optics, mechanics (point/solid), chemistry and thermodynamics, statistical thermodynamics, hydrostatics, electricty, electrostatics, magnetostatics, then onto everything related to waves and propagation : particle diffusion, ondulatory optics (interferences, diffraction, patterns etc), heat transfer, fluid mechanics, acoustics, quantum mechanics, electromagnetism, electrotechnics, more electricity, then you can go back to study some open systems using contours (so more thermodynamics and fluid mechanics).

I'm probably forgetting some things but you get the idea.
