I have written on various study related questions but this one is still good enough to be answered.
As it talks about accelerated learning, first we must understand why accelerated learning is essential for getting better at studies.
You must have seen students who study less than hard-working students but still score good marks, How do they do it?
The answer is, fortunately, they have mastered Accelerate learning and built their Focus. The focus is the first skill, you need to build.
A person must know, what is needed to be done at a given point of time.

I might sound old fashioned in this generation, where multi tasking is cool thinking and you walk down the street while texting your friends and listening to music. But in reality, Multi tasking is not cool. It damages the focus muscle of your brain and makes you more prone to distractions.
So, at first you must build your focus and learn to focus on small tasks and stuff. I have written about focus and pomodoro technique: Why its so tough to start studying?
Another essential skill, that will attribute to your accelerated learning is Learning how to learn.
Yes, we really do not know How to approach a new topic/ subject in such a way that it takes minimum time and efforts.
Learning is required to be seen with a completely different approach. It is an art which you need to practice deliberately.
The whole learning process can be divided into four tiny steps:
- Deconstruct the whole thing in small little chunks just like mini skills;
- What are the most important chunks out of them all;
- Eliminate barrier to start or working daily;
- Track your progress and practice deliberately.
