A Mind for Numbers


Author: Barbara Oakley
Rating: 3/5

The book is a good read; especially if you are a student.
It can help you adapt and mold your studying strategy in order to maximize your retention and recollection.

The book itself is about having “a mind for numbers” and improve your stats while learning STEM topics but I think it truly applies to all fields of learning.

What I have not so much liked is that it is heavily oriented towards the education system, helping you “passing the tests” rather than helping you truly connect with what you’re trying to learn and master it.

If you are a student though, know yourself out and give it a try.
You won’t regret it.
