What's the best way to beat procrastination for maths? Do you guys have a habit of doing maths study and such and how did you overcome procrastinating?
Any tips for doing certain questions, how long to spend etc?

(btw I'm doing 3U in year 12 and currently doing average, want to get to the top)

Thanks.

Past papers, past papers and past papers. cliched I know, but its the best advice there is.

or just do questions from textbooks plus know what you're actually doing before attempting any questions. If you do past papers without any knowledge of what you are doing then you're pretty much building a bad habit that will reflect during your exams such as silly mistakes or using the wrong formula

But if you take the time to learn your mistakes and understand it then isnt that just as good?
