How do you actually study?

[Urbannaja]

I go over all the IC flashcards, read all the info, no matter if I got the answer correct. If I missed it, I retype the answer in.

Do you wait until you can answer all the flash card questions correctly, or do you count on recognition and visual memory to take you through the exam successfully?

I am getting most of the flash card questions correct, in prep for Humanities, and the ones I miss, make me slap my forehead, and say "Duh". :o

Basically, I wondered if most people take the test when they get all the answers correct on IC? I have seen a few post who said they ran through the cards once and then took an exam....?

Thanks

So far, i've only gone through the IC flashcards one time through. I never type in the answers, just think about the question and read the explanation carefully. I'd probably do better if I went through the flashcards more, but I have difficulty finding the time =) I've yet to try any practice tests. For me at least, just getting a good jist of the material seems to be enough.
