What helps more IC's direct answer or the explaination? - norema - 06-22-2009
I have a feeling I know what this answer is, but I just get tired of reading the whole explanation after the first go around. When I review subsequent times I just remember what the answer to the question is, and not the whole explanation. I take that the whole explanation is what really helps on the test correct?

The explanation in most cases is MUCH MORE important. You will NOT have that exact "blank" on the test- you just need to know how to get there.
I hope this helps. Greg

Read the whole explanation.
Read the WHOLE explanation.
Seriously, that's the beauty of these flashcards! Each card is a nugget of useful information, and the extra text is there to further explain the point. It may put it in context, it may compare it to another point, it may be an illustration - whatever it is, it's important. So many test questions go beyond the facts and ask for interpretation or relevance.

Absolutely read the whole information. I may know the "fill in the blank answer", but then I try to remember what other information was listed before I hit the enter key and look at the answer and info itself. Has saved me many a sitting there dumbfounded look while taking the test. Good luck with all yiu studies.
