When you have loads of assignments and exam preparation, studying just in class doesn’t cut it. However, studying alone may also not be sufficient since you might have so many queries. Not to mention, studying yourself can become boring pretty fast.

So, the ideal solution is to plan a group study session with your peers beyond the classroom. Not only will all your confusions and queries be cleared but you can complete your study in a more interactive and fun way.

To help you get started, here are 5 easy steps to plan an awesome group study session Beyond the Classroom.

Step 1: Set a date and time

Planning ahead
Planning ahead (Beyond the Classroom)

First and foremost, set a date and time that works for everyone in the group. To ensure that all your peers can attend, plan the session at least a few weeks in advance. This will give all plenty of time to adjust their schedules.

Additionally, advance planning will help you to have the flexibility if something unexpected pops up. For example, if one of your peers gets sick or you have an impromptu mock test, you can postpone the date without running out of time.

Step 2: Choose a comfortable study spot

After the date and time is established, it’s time to choose a study spot. Consider the group’s size and needs when selecting a spot. It should be big enough to accommodate everyone, have access to necessary supplies and provide a comfortable and distraction-free environment.

Libraries are often a great choice for group study sessions, as they are typically quiet and offer plenty of resources. However, a secluded cafe or a friend’s house can also be a nice spot. It would be a place beyond the classroom. The change of scenario will make it more fun and enjoyable.

Step 3: Make an agenda

Creating agenda (Beyond the Classroom)

Creating an agenda is key to having an effective group study session beyond the classroom. It will help everyone to stay on task, prevent the group from getting off track, and make sure all of you are on the same page.

The agenda should include topics to be discussed, any assignments or tasks that need to be completed and a timeline of when each topic should be addressed. You can also prioritise the tasks and put a person in charge for each task. That way everyone will be involved and more engaged on the tasks at hand.

Step 4: Set ground rules

Setting rules
Setting rules (Beyond the Classroom)

While you can all have your fun and play, setting rules is a MUST to keep you all grounded. Consider the group’s size, focus and goals for the session when establishing ground rules.

You can start with rules such as banning phones, setting a time limit for each topic discussed and having an open-door policy for questions and ideas. You can also restrict any alcohol or beverages that can derail everyone’s focus.

Step 5: Take breaks

Finally, it is important to remember to take breaks during the group study session. It will give you all a chance to recharge, refresh and come back to the session with a renewed energy and focus.

Try to plan at least one break for every hour of studying. This can be used to grab a snack, take a short walk or just take a few minutes to relax and stretch. You can also play short games or quizzes to stretch your brain muscles before going back to your study.

With these 5 steps, you are well on your way to planning a successful group study session! Take the time to plan ahead to ensure that the session is productive and beneficial to everyone.

  • Say hello to Zakarya and Abdulmalek, two fresh faces at APU who are already settling in like pros! 🎓✌️ They both received cash rebates for their #FreeStudentVisa and even share the same accommodation — yup, all set up smoothly by us so they didn’t have to stress a thing. 🏡✨

It’s always nice seeing students arrive together, and even better when they click this well from day one. From unpacking bags to navigating campus life — these two are in it together. 🔥

Wishing them the best as they kickstart their student journey here in Malaysia — it’s only the beginning! 💛

  • Welcoming Yaqoob and Sayed Rehan from Kuwait — students we first met back during Ramadhan at the #Yes2Malaysia Expo, and today they’re finally here in Malaysia, all settled in and ready to begin their aviation journey! ✈️🇲🇾

They explored the Hangar for the first time with Ms Nisa, tried local favourites like masak lemak daging salai and asam pedas (which they loved, even with the heat! 🔥), and got their medical check-ups done.

These two have been friends since Grade 10, and now they’re kicking off this new chapter together at the same university. Classes start next week on the 27th — and we know they’re going to fly high, literally and academically! 💛

Here’s to a smooth takeoff, boys — your #MalaysianExperience is just beginning, and it’s going to be full of flavour, fun, and moments that go way #BeyondTheClassroom.

  • Say hello to Neil, our bright and beaming MUFY student at #SunwayUniversity! 🌞✨ From the moment he arrived, Neil brought along his humble charm, positive energy, and of course — that contagious smile that lights up the room 😄

Even before Orientation Day kicked off, Neil already had a circle of friends from the MUFY and CIMP programmes — talk about social skills unlocked! 🧑‍🤝‍🧑💬 He’s excited to begin this new chapter and we’re beyond proud of his confidence and kindness.

Also big shoutout to his super sporting dad who joined us for a quick lunch at a Muslim Chinese spot while Neil got busy with orientation 🍜🇨🇳 Family support = top-tier Malaysian vibes ❤️

All the best, Neil! Keep being you — and keep that smile going strong! 🫶

Thanks to #EMGA perks, he kicked off his studies with a FREE student visa and sweet cash rebates—yes, you can get yours too! 💸😉 The best part? He’s loving the affordable lifestyle here in Malaysia almost as much as he’s loving his Mechanical Engineering classes. 🛠️❤️

We caught up with Mr. Waleed, who just landed in Malaysia to begin his exciting PhD journey at #UTMKL! Over a much-needed cup of coffee, we chatted about life, studies, and how insanely cool the campus buildings are (he seriously couldn’t stop smiling 😄).

Next up? Registration, meeting his supervisor, and diving into research mode. With that kind of energy and curiosity, we know Waleed’s #MalaysianExperience is going to be one for the books — full of discovery, new friendships, and learning that goes far #BeyondTheClassroom! 💡🌇
