How in the world do you people retain all those study questions?
#1
The average IC course test have over 400 questions. I read how some just studied for a week or two and to me it would take atleast a month just to be able to go through all those questions twice without even remembering them

I usually learn about 50 new flash cards per day that I study, and review 1 section (each day) that I have previously learned on the subject. That takes about 1-2 hours a day for about a week to 10 days per subject. You will be suprised how much you retain after you go through a set of flashcards enough times to get all of them right.

what i just did I went through the sociology and US History 1 and saved the flash cards with answer as a print screen in my drive. This will allow me to go through all the questions with answer as a slide show, so that I won't have to be logged online all the time to review the study flash cards. Cool

It usually took me about an hour to get through, say, 3 IC sections on a particular test. If you figure that the average test has maybe 10 flashcard sections, that says that you can get through all the questions in 3-4 hours. So if you can study two hours a day for two weeks you can easily get through all the material about 6-7 times. Big Grin

What a good idea! I can't be online all the time, but could carry my laptop around with me to study. How would I save like you did?
