Am I the only one who occasionally chooses to skip lectures and study on my own? I find it hard to focus in class, especially when the material gets tough.

Honestly, those cramped tables should be illegal, right? I feel like I attend lectures more to connect with people to study with later than for the actual learning experience!

Finding a balance between attending lectures and self-study is key, and everyone has their own preference on how to absorb information. Do you have any strategies that work well for you in your self-study sessions?
