I have a system that works pretty well for me. I make a study sheet,where I draw a column for each section of a course. As I go through the questions, I write down the number of each flashcard I don't have a good grasp on under the column for that section. The next time I review the material, I review only the flashcards noted on the study sheet , ignorring the rest. As I commit a concept to memory, I line the number of the question I've newly memorized from the paper. Each time I drill through it, the list gets smaller until I've memorized all of the questions. It usualy takes me a week to commit all of the questions to memory. I'm sure everyone has there own way of approaching this, but this works for me. Don't be intimidated by the number of questions in a subject. I get psyched out everytime I start studying, only to do fine when I take the test. So far, I've taken 22 CLEPs, DSSTs and ECEs using only Instantcert as my primary study material and have passed them all. Good luck!
