if you're not naturally talented, you won't be a god.
your efforts will compensate for a while though.

How do I know if im naturally talented, while I passed all this years and literally never tried, I spent my whole school years fooling around or playing vidya, and kept passing years somehow

Stop with this meme. Yes talent for math exists and the best mathematicians have that talent but they didn't just know everything they had to study.

>>8110042
The only way to get better is with practice, LOTS of practice.

Good on ya bro, you definitely aint naturally talented if you only "kept passing years somehow". That whole 'lazy but smart' meme aint impressing anyone

>meme.
>smart people have to study for just as long as dumb people do

>smart but lazy is a meme
laziness is the natural conclusion of smartness, in a nonideal environment.

>being lazy
no, just very efficient. If you spend 5 hours on it, I will spend 30 minutes because it comes to me like a natural inspiration.
Normies can't understand, smart people will recognize themselves in this.

This applies to me but I still turned out to be a stupid loser, so consider that. You aren't incompetent. That doesn't mean you're gifted.

You dont check triple dubs here?

I'm smart and lazy I'll admit, but I still study regularly. It's not a matter of habit, but will.

[Anonymous No.8110266]

Fucking study you dumb cunt. That's all there is to it. The guys going "I never study and get 4.0 xD" are retarded high schoolers

You can refine your study techniques to be more productive but you will need to still dedicate time to learning the material. As you learn more about a subject you'll pick things up faster due to the sheer number of connections you can make linking it to materials you know

This applies to anything in life:

Set time every day to study for a set amount of time.
Try to expose yourself to new ideas everyday, even if you don't get it.
Periodically review old material.
[math]Practice.[/math]

To sum it up in one word, the most important thing is diligence

That's it.

If you want to do well on the test, then coach yourself for the test by doing example tests, or find out what's tested. That being said, do not use the test content as a metric of knowledge, or you'll learn to do well on tests rather than get good at math.
