The amount of time you dedicate to learning depends on your personal circumstances, goals, and learning style. However, we recommend at least 20 hours per week for full-time study to make meaningful progress.
While 20 hours works well for full-time learners, you may need to adjust based on your circumstances:
Part-time learners might aim for 10-15 hours per week, understanding that reaching your goals will take longer.
Intensive learners could benefit from 25-30 hours per week, though be mindful of cognitive overload and burnout.
Finding Your Rhythm
Start with our recommended timeframe and adjust based on how you're progressing. If you're consistently struggling to retain information or feel overwhelmed, you might need either more time with the material or better study strategies. If you're breezing through and feeling under stimulated, consider increasing your hours or advancing to more challenging content.
The key is consistency. Regular, focused learning sessions will always outperform sporadic, intensive cramming.
