maybecoooked Hii! So before I tell you how much I studied, I'm gonna emphasize on the fact that it varies from person to person as to how much they need to study to achieve a particular outcome. For me, I studied for a good 2-3 hours a day for the first 4.5 months of prep. Then I scaled it up to 6-8 hours a day for the last month. More importantly than studying for absurdly long amounts of time however, is to try and get involved in science programs and enhance extracurricular activities. Good luck once again, and don't stress too hard.
