yes it is possible but you need to be very careful about your next steps:
-
divide your subjects according to their difficulty and how much studying they need and literally grab a calendar and write down what are you studying each day for each subject. For example i would dedicate around 3 days for every subject and then revise and do practice exams. but you can adjust this according to your needs.
-
it is easily to get distracted and unmotivated cause of feelings. Exams are coming whether you like it or not so i would suggest you get real with yourself and formulate a plan and be disciplined in your studying whether you feel like it or not. Also i would recommend quality over quantity. use pomodoro technique and if you choose to only study 2-4 hours a day make sure you are efficient and there are no distractions around you (phone notifications, people interrupting your studying etc.) It takes 15 minutes for the brain to focus on a task and every time you interrupt the process with something different than what you re doing you lose in productivity as it plummets and it takes another 15 minutes to reach that level of concentration again. Now when it comes to motivation, remember why you re doing this. you re there to earn valuable skills, its an investment in yourself and your future. dont waste that. Easier said than done. i know.
