"They saw that I got to learn effectively and still have time to go to parties..." - Romain, FRENCH MED STUDENT

For Ambitious Students Who Want to Study More Efficiently


Discover a step-by-step workflow to handle multiple subjects, finish a lot of materials on time, and remember what you study beyond exams

Ever feel stuck in a loop of playing catch-up and doing poorly on exams?


If these sound familiar to you, read on:

➡ You can't sit down and start studying, as if your brain is fighting you each time (and once you do...you always seem to end up reaching for your phone)

➡ You feel like studying is taking SO much time and it takes you hours just to get through a few slides or pages of reading (and forget most of it anyway) - and you give up after a few hours

➡ You've tried pomodoro, blurting, lo-fi, and all this AI nonsense to study more effectively—but they work only for a few days/weeks

➡ You really only start studying only when it's a few days before the exam, and now you feel overwhelmed by the sheer amount of information you need to learn (well, because they always pile up)

➡ You blank out, run out of time, or make silly mistakes during exams despite having studied everything for hours (while someone who studied for 15 minutes does better)

➡ You walk out the exam knowing you did very poorly, and regret wasting all that time you could've used for studying.

But the cycle doesn't stop there, does it?

What if you could stay ahead, ace every exam, and still enjoy life outside studying?


What if you knew exactly how to pinpoint the most important information you needed to learn?

What if you knew exactly what to do to remember everything you read once you sit down and start studying?

Instead of stressing about unfinished chapters, you could have free time to actually enjoy your life.

Instead of battling your brain to focus, studying would feel natural and almost enjoyable.

Imagine...

You're DONE covering all your materials 2 weeks before final exam day - while your classmates are still re-reading chapter 1 "until it sticks".

During exams, correct answers just flow - one item at a time. No hesitation, no second-guessing.

You finish with 30+ minutes left to review everything — twice.

You walk out knowing you NAILED it.

Instead of the post-exam anxiety spiral, you're confident you performed well.

You might even top your class.

And you'd have an actual life outside academics.

Instead of watching peers graduate while you're scheduling retakes...

You get into your target program, your dream university, or land that competitive position.

Instead of awkward conversations about why you need another attempt...

You're building memories with people who matter.

Instead of compromising on backup plans...

You're exactly where you wanted to be, moving forward.

This isn't fantasy.

This is simply what happens when you have an effective study system.

Learn how to commit volumes of information in your memory - while living a life outside studying - by joining LeanAnki Study System.

LeanAnki Study System (LASS) is an online course that gives you the skills, mental models, and systems for finishing a lot of materials without overwhelm and retaining them beyond your exams.

  • It’s experience-based. I’ve only included things that I’ve already proven to work. No ideas that “sound good in theory” but don’t really work in practice.
  • It skips the guesswork. You don’t need to guess “when to apply these tactics” because, instead of out-of-context grocery list of “hacks,” you get a step-by-step workflow.
  • It works better and better long-term. The course focuses on developing the right skills ALONG with the right process. And once you learn these skills, you’ll be able to use them for LIFE.

Unlike how most people treat studying like random activities — read this, highlight that, make some flashcards, pretend you’re explaining it, hope it sticks…

Or downright SKIPPING the most important parts of the learning process by using AI summarizers or similar nonsense...

LASS treats learning like an engineered process. (I’m an engineer, after all) Every step has a purpose. Every technique builds on the previous one. Nothing is wasted.

Here’s Everything You Get in LeanAnki Study System


Others make you watch 40+ hours of rambling videos like it’s your full time job. I literally give you the shortest path from struggling to succeeding — like you’re not even taking a course. 

No useless activities, just straight to implementing WHILE you’re studying.

🎯 The LeanAnki Study Workflow – Worth $299

In just 14 lessons, you'll learn entire core system is mostly written content you can consume in a weekend, but apply for life.

Here you'll learn how to turn ANY piece of information (textbooks, lectures, pdf's, etc.) into a permanent part of your knowledge.

✅ Instead of telling yourself every day that you’ll “study tomorrow,” you’ll ALWAYS know what to do and where to start. Eventually, this means UNBREAKABLE study habits that don’t need any willpower.

✅ Instead of highlighting entire pages of a textbook, copying entire lectures…you’ll know exactly how to find what’s important to spend your limited time on.

✅ Instead of drawing a blank when you get asked a question from another angle, you’ll know what it means to truly understand a concept and how to get there — step-by-step.

✅ Instead of taking too long to learn new content the first time and giving up halfway through, you’ll be confident that you’ll be able to finish your materials — without getting overwhelmed or burnt out.

✅ Instead of forgetting everything you studied after a few days despite re-reading your notes more than 3 times, you’ll enter your exam room with total “passing confidence”.

I created this system to solve all the problems I see in mainstream study advice...

...which is knowing a LOT of hacks, but NOT having a STRUCTURED game plan for acing your exams while living a life.

It's for serious, ambitious students who believe that using systems — rather than blindly "working harder" or using AI nonsense — is the key to studying smarter.

INCLUDED IN YOUR ENROLLMENT: 6 Best Study Techniques For Your Learning System

Discover specific techniques that actually IMPROVE your system, rather than confuse you even more.


Inside, you'll learn:

✅ How to remember the big picture AND the details using a simple “Integration” mental model

✅ How to remember lists of 20+ items using a technique heavily used by Memory Athletes

✅ How to use Anki to get better at any cognitive skill (programming, fingerstyle guitar arrangement, etc.)

✅ How to stay focused for extended periods using “Binary Pomodoros”

✅ How to learn like Elon Musk using my Logic Chain Technique

✅ How to build sticky study habits without willpower using “Forcing Functions”

✅ Mastery Module #1: How to Read Textbooks Faster and Have Strong Retention (worth $199)

This is easily worth $497 in other courses. In this module, you'll learn the exact same strategies I personally used to get through ALL of my textbooks (conceptual and problem-solving), touch them once, and actually know when I'm "done".

Let’s be real: most people “study” by trying to condense the textbook. (i.e. making a tiny rewritten version of the damn book)

They highlight everything, rewrite entire paragraphs, and still… can’t remember sh*t when it matters.

Or worse — they keep rereading the same page over and over, hoping something will finally click.

But it never does.

This module fixes that.

You’ll learn how to make important information "jump out of the page", read faster WITH deep understanding, and how to make information stick the first time you encounter it.

Think: “holy crap, I actually get this now.”

By the end, reading textbooks will feel less like punishment and more like a game where you see the structure of what’s going on — and your brain finally cooperates.

Inside you'll learn a VERY SIMPLE workflow:

  • The “Bloom Test” That Tells You When to Stop Reading – Why most students read the same page 5 times and still forget it (and the 30-second check that guarantees encoding)
  •  The “Bracket Method” that I used to read 1000-Page Textbooks – How to extract core concepts in 1/3 the time without missing crucial details
  •  Why “Goalposting” Makes Massive Books Feel Small – The psychological trick that turns overwhelming textbooks into manageable chunks
  •  “Bento Box Thinking” for Deep Understanding – How to organize textbook information the way your brain actually wants to receive it

✅ Mastery Module #2: How to Take EFFECTIVE “Ugly” Notes (worth $129)


Every hour you spend making verbatim, pretty, aesthetic notes is wasting your life. Here you'll learn how to take notes that stay usable after you make them.


Let’s talk about notes. Everyone wants their notes to look perfect — clean margins, pastel highlighters, Instagram-worthy layouts.

It's either that, or they "capture important information" but end up writing a transcription because EVERYTHING seems important.

But here’s the thing: your brain doesn’t care if your notes are pretty or complete.

What it does care about is what happened mentally while you were writing.

This module shows you how to take “ugly” notes — the kind that look chaotic but make your brain work. The 'genius' method, if you will.

You’ll learn exactly what to write down in your notes, understand lectures better, and actually remember what you wrote.

Because when your notes force you to engage, not just copy, your brain goes,

“Oh, this must be important. Let’s keep it.”

By the end, you’ll have a note-taking system that looks like the most unintelligible species of human writing but works like crazy.

Again, you'll learn a VERY simple, but effective workflow:

  • The “Lean Cornell Note-Taking System" – You'll learn my ultimate "messy-looking" note taking method that create MASSIVE retention benefits
  • Develop your skills using The “Referring Address” Technique – I developed this technique so you can develop the skill of creating revision material as you're taking notes
  • When and how to do Active Recall to remember your notes – The specific timing and method that makes retrieval practice actually stick

✅ Mastery Module #3: Problem-Solving Mastery (worth $199)

If you believe you're "not good at math", well, same here. But know that you CAN get better at thinking. It just requires the right approach.


If you’ve ever memorized a bunch of formulas, did a ton of practice questions, but stared at a math or physics problem and thought, “I swear I studied this… why can’t I do it?”

This module is for you.

Most people try to memorize formulas or example problems — but that doesn’t teach you how to think through the problem.

The simple solution is to "build a library of patterns" by changing the approach of HOW you study and practice problem-based subjects.

This is NOT easy. It's about building skill.

You’ll learn the workflow that guarantees you can solve any variation of a problem, not just the one you saw before.

So instead of panicking when the question looks slightly different, you'll be able to pull a solution from your own experience.

By the end, you’ll be the person who looks at a hard problem and says,

“Okay, I haven't seen this, but I know exactly how to break this down.”

These are hard things I got to discover because I needed to master every damn engineering subject in under 5 months (on top of all my reading):

  • The Problem-Solving Card Type Everyone Gets Wrong – Why memorizing formulas doesn’t help you solve problems (and what to do instead)
  •  The “Purposeful Practice Workflow” for Fast Mastery – How to guarantee you can solve any variation of a problem type by practicing correctly
  • Exactly How to Effectively Study for Word Problems – How to learn them effectively so they don’t faze you when they show up on important exams
  • (OPTIONAL) Best Anki Settings for Problem-Solving Subjects – Because problem-solving subjects are a different animal in the knowledge world

✅ Mastery Module #4: How to Create Unforgettable Flashcards (worth $129)

Here you'll see example workflows how I remember different types of information with FEWER but HIGHER QUALITY flashcards.

Let me tell you a secret:

Spaced repetition is the only study technique proven to help you remember massive amounts of information WITHOUT STUDYING MORE.

The problem is IT'S EASY TO MESS UP and there's SO MUCH NOISE in the Anki community.

People just tell you to use shared decks or let some AI generator make cards for your subjects — then wonder why nothing sticks.

You "save time" now, but now you have to review a TON of flashcards that mean ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to your brain.

So in this module, I’ll show you what I learned from creating just 4000+ flashcards to cover 5 years of Engineering subjects.

You'll learn how to create flashcards that actually make sense to your brain — cards that trigger real recall and help you master anything faster.

You’ll learn how to break down dense information, structure it perfectly, and finally make spaced repetition work like it’s supposed to.

By the end, you’ll know how to approach any type of knowledge stop memorizing — and start actually knowing.

  • Example: Medical Terminology Without Memorizing Definitions – See how you can break down medical terms (did I mention I'm an engineer?) and decode unfamiliar terms instantly. Includes the 14 "ingredients" that unlock 100,000+ medical terms
  • Example: Complex Information That Actually Sticks – How you can turn dense paragraphs into atomic cards. One technique that automatically splits important information and what to leave out
  • Example: Mathematical Formulas You Can Actually Use – How to make sure your "formula" cards really pop up in your brain during hard problems. This includes my Hidden Markov Model cards that I used back in Grad School. Not all formulas should be remembered the same way.
  • Example: Process Flashcards for 12-Step Sequences – See how I turn a multi-step process into a few simple flashcards. No more cloze overlapper nightmares or complicated features. Just pure SKILL.
  • Example: Anatomy Cards That Beat Recognition Tricks – Why standard image occlusion fails and how to create cards that test REAL knowledge, not just “I recognize this shape.” Real anatomy diagram demonstrations included

✅ Lifetime Updates (worth $99/year)


This is a ONE-TIME investment for a lifetime of improved results.

Good news is, the system could evolve as I discover new techniques.

You get everything forever. No recurring fees.

"Okay, so what's the investment for LeanAnki Study System?"


Okay, before I reveal the exact price, let me guess what you're thinking...

"I've seen this before. This sounds like another course creator pulling numbers out of thin air to make this look like a deal."

So let me be real here for a moment.

This isn't some inflated number I made up to "trick" you. This is simply the MINIMUM amount you'd pay if you tried to learn these things from other courses individually.

Like, Problem-solving mastery for technical subjects? Good luck. You'd need tutoring at $50-100/hour for 20+ sessions. That's $1,000-$2,000 right there. I'd rather teach you how to get good on your own.

But that would be even greater if we look at what this is COSTING you at the moment.

Top of my mind is, you're paying a lot for tuition already, but you're only getting maybe 30% of the value.

Now imagine that, on top of:

  • Study guides that cost hundreds of dollars...
  • Exam prep courses that cost thousands of dollars...
  • Expensive tutoring sessions you can barely afford

And I know as you progress through your career, you're gonna face exams that cost you at least $1,000 in retake fees ALONE if you fail.

Where failing could cost you internships, specialty courses, or even getting into your dream career or university.

One thing is for sure: ineffective study methods cost more.

That's why others could charge you a lot of money for their courses — unfortunately giving you more INFORMATION, not better IMPLEMENTATION.

So I want to make things easier for you.

Your Investment Today: $149 one-time payment.

You've probably already spent at least 10X this amount on random comfort buys, food deliveries, or gadgets that didn't actually help you study better.

That's easily $1,490 on stuff that gave you temporary comfort but zero long-term results.

Now you can take a fraction of what you spent last semester to make studying feel easier for life.

About Me — Or, "Why Should I Trust You?"

My name's AL, and I'm not an influencer trying to bullshit you with all the pretty glam shots pretending I've achieved ultimate results without doing the work and just downloading a bunch of tools.

I was a failing student who failed 4 subjects and barely passed everything else.

Graduation delayed by 1 year. Lost almost 2 years in potential income.

From where I live (Philippines), any hopes of a good career is over with my record. With the amount of better but still unemployed college graduates, good luck getting a job that pays enough for you and your family.

Just like you, I did okay in grade school and high school. But in college? I felt like an impostor.

My classmates seemed to understand lectures instantly. I'd read my slides all day and remember absolutely nothing on the exam.

Everyone told me to "study harder." To "be more disciplined." To "focus in class."

I tried everything: Pomodoro. Color-coded notes. Study playlists. "Study with me" videos.

Nothing worked consistently. They were all just band-aids on a broken system.

I'd hate studying so much I skipped my classes to smoke and drink with my friends instead. If I was going to fail anyway, why torture myself?

But I HAD TO make things work, or my career was over.

It came to a point I had to choose between two futures: make McDonald's the first thing on my "job experience" or actually redeem my failures and become an engineer.

I reverse-engineered the entire learning process. Watched endless YouTube videos, read books on learning.

I stumbled upon cognitive psychology. I looked at how memory actually works. I tested different methods across different subjects.

I broke down the step-by-step process of encoding, storing, and retrieving information.

And I built a system that actually worked.

Having an effective learning system is the only thing that gave me a shot at success:

  • First, I was getting top scores on my quizzes. I was still failing in other subjects. But good start.
  • Then I got highest grades on prelims and midterms.
  • Then, highest grades in class.
  • I started moving up a whole level in my GPA
  • Ranked #1 in our mock board exams for our entire batch
  • Studied 5 years of Engineering subjects in 5 months for my board exams
  • Finished #6 out of 2,900+ students (top 0.3%) on that exam
  • Got accepted into Grad School as a scholar at one of the top engineering universities in my country
  • Maintained good grades for my Grad School scholarship while studying marketing, business, psychology, and writing on my blog

Today, I'm a (lowkey) learning coach helping 5,000+ learners study faster using this complete learning system.

Not because I'm naturally smart.

Because I have a system that works even if you're not naturally smart - a system that makes you smarter the more you use it.

Now, it's your turn.

What Students Say About LASS

(NOTE: Everything in here are unsolicited testimonials.)

"I realized it's fun to learn..." - Jeanelle, after passing ECE boards

Jeanelle came to me when she was completely overwhelmed by the materials she had to learn. After a few months, she was one of the only 30% who passed!

"They saw that I got to learn effectively and still have time to go to parties..." - Romain

Romain was a second year French med student at the time. He KNEW he still needed to work, but there's the assurance that his effort will pay off in dividends.

"7th out of 1840 in my second semester" - Romain

Here's an update after a few months!

"I've never looked at a paragraph and at textbook information this way..." - Karim



"I wish I knew about LeanAnki when I started my degree. I wasted so much time, money, and energy for YouTube videos, courses, tools, trying to improve my learning" - JP


"I am blown away with how much I can comprehend a subject after only a few hours of study" — Naomi, engineering student


"I got an A on an exam by using the leananki strategy!" — Lilyn G



"A system that gives a good framework/foundation for efficient learning." - Charlie


"I'm hitting all my goals, and for one of my courses I even got the highest mark in my degree, with a solid 81%!" — Stelio


My Promise To You: This Sh*t Works If You're Willing To Do The Work


Imagine: the time you're spending now in university is the same amount of time I've spent doing deep work to refine this material — literally thinking, breathing, researching it.

I can say that this is the most efficient way to "learn how to learn" that I know of in my entire 8-year journey. BUT, it's more like an "optimal gym routine" than a fancy 6-pack equipment or "pill" that excuses you from doing the work, you know what I mean?

You still have to show up. You still have to do the reps.

While I've designed the course to work with your schedule, I'm 100% honest that this still takes time and effort.

So I'll be upfront juts in case: is NOT a shortcut for desperate crammers who have exams coming up in a few days. It's a complete learning system that makes cramming unnecessary in the first place.

Now if that's clear and good, here's what I expect from you:

I expect you to be honest about your best effort to apply the process you're about to learn.

You don't need it to be perfect. You just need to follow the course exactly as I laid it out for you.

If you practice each element of LeanAnki Study System and still DO NOT feel like you are making progress 30 days after you begin the work, I'll try to work with you to identify what's missing. This is what helps me improve the course in the first place. After you've tried implementing the lessons, just email me at [email protected] so I can help you get unstuck. If that still doesn't work, then I'll give you a full refund.

"But I could find everything for free on YouTube and Reddit"


I'll be straight with you — you could piece this together on your own. Same as I did. I'm not pretentious enough to say that this is "the only way".

But here's that timeline:

Month 1-3: Find Reddit threads that promise you "The SECRET Hack to Studying That Feels Like Cheating" (that's either spaced repetition or active recall without explanation) or watch a dozen YouTube videos called "This One Simple Trick Will Make You a Genius Overnight".

Feel good for a while, until it stops working. Then hop on to another shiny object. An AI study app? Study dashboards?! SIGN ME UP!

Months 4-6: You get fed up realizing YouTube influencers just wanted thew views after all. You start reading dozens of books on learning, productivity, and psychology. Actually go through them no matter how dry they are. Try to implement the takeaways while you're confused about still conflicting advice found in many different resources.

At this point, it's either give up or push through. Most people just get too frustrated and give up on the first book.

Months 7-12: Based on the principles you've learned in different books, start building a more efficient system yourself through trial and error. Fail a class or two while you figure it out.

Months 12+: Finally get something that works... after you've already lost semesters, money, and time you'll never get back.

I already paid that price so you don't have to.

Spent YEARS in confusion. Got delayed by a year.

Restarted Anki decks with 1,000+ cards because I made them WRONG.

I risked FAILING my board exam - my only chance at redemption to learn this.

Tested everything on myself first, then with thousands of students.

This isn't theory. This is what I built when I was on the edge of failure and desperation.

You don't have to go through that. You could stop wasting time on ineffective methods and start actually studying — the right way.


Some people choose “more information”. Top Learners choose better implementation.


You’ve just been through the most “step-by-step” way to becoming a top learner ever created.

You've seen how your results isn't because you're "lazy" or have "poor memory"...

...and also has nothing to do with the tools you're using.

You now know it's all about the effectiveness of your system.

But right now, you're probably thinking:

“I could just do this myself and piece this together for FREE.”

Yes, absolutely. (If you still aren't tired of doing trial and error while risking your exams...)

In fact, because the internet is just SO huge you won’t know where to even begin...

I can even give you my old reading list if you want to go that route.

But you see...

There’s a point where the ONLY thing holding you back is better implementation.

This is the point where most students are today — the point where they don’t need more information to get better results.

Have you ever wondered why there’s SO MUCH free information out there yet only a few people seem to get real, permanent results?

If you’ve tried all the tactics you’ve seen online, if you’re watching all these productivity and study channels on YouTube, then you’re probably in this position, too.

And for Pete's sake, you can look up anything in an instant on ChatGPT.

WHY ARE WE SOMEHOW GETTING MORE STUCK?

Why do you think? The answer is pretty clear.

And if you’ve taken the time to read this...

It’s CLEAR to me that you want to make a change — a PERMANENT change.

So you have 3 choices today:

OPTION #1: You can ignore everything we talked about and continue believing that being a top learner is all about having great memory, “lots of motivation,” and “fast learning speed”

OPTION #2: You can continue searching for the next magic pill, the next best study hack, or the next best AI-powered study tool.

OR...

OPTION #3: You can take action and follow a proven system that has already worked to help people like you and me become top learners — ALL while having time to do the things you love

Whichever decision you make, know this:

After a week, a month, or another school year — you could be looking back at this day thinking that it’s one of the best decisions you’ve made in your study career…

…or, it could just be another one of those "regular distractions" that we just forget a few seconds later.

JUST REMEMBER THIS.

Time will pass by, anyway. Whatever you choose, time doesn’t wait.

I hope to see you inside LeanAnki Study System.

Stay ahead of your materials, remember new material faster, and enjoy more free time
