All throughout high school, I was used to study alone and I didn't know how to study with other people. When I got into uni, I found it hard for me to follow every syllabus but I still didn't know how to ask others about the topics that I don't understand. So slowly, I started just eavesdropping (yeah, that's like my speciality. I'm like a professional creeper) whenever my friends were discussing assignments or the chapters we'd just learned in class.
It took me three years of studying for my diploma and then when I got into my first year of bachelor's degree, I just said to myself, "fuck it!" and then properly engaged in the group study.
My grades and pointer increased dramatically.
These tips are definitely helpful and I'm gonna try to procrastinate less and not let everything pile up until the last minute.
I did the same, I only started looking at the concept of study groups when I reached university and realised that having people around me doing the same thing meant I had a way to study without having to bother the lecturers as much. And on the plus side, you make more friends.
Procrastination is a wild beast that can never be fully tamed.
