Abstract in brief

Students reported using around four active study strategies, spending about half of their study time on these methods, which positively influenced their exam performance.
Starting to study earlier than six days before an exam did not significantly impact performance, although students typically began preparing six days in advance.
Distractions during study sessions, which occurred about 20% of the time, negatively affected exam scores, highlighting the importance of minimizing distractions for better academic performance.]
