Each student has a unique body of knowledge and individual strengths.
Students can learn from one another.
To have individual students pass on their knowledge to each other in a study group requires less time and energy than for each of those students to learn all of the material alone. When you discuss concepts or teach them to others, you reinforce what you know and strengthen your critical thinking. Part of the benefit comes from simply repeating information aloud and rewriting it on paper, and part comes from how you thing through information in your mind before you pass it on to someone else. When you study by yourself, you are accountable to yourself alone. In a study group, however, others will see your level of work and preparation, which will increase your motivation.
