"What happens with me, and I believe it must be the same with everyone, after going through the flashcards multiple times, I still donât have the answer memorized (the actual word doesnât come to mind when I try to think of it), but I know what it is and could easily pick it from a list if that was available."
This is the exact same thing that happens with me. I read the IC answer and explanation every time, and will usually know the answer on the test when a list of choices is given. Sometimes if a couple answers are very similar I will have to think of a creative way to know the difference between them, but I try to understand different concepts instead of necessarily memorize them. I think the only time I have made myself memorize things were tests I needed to know Constitutional amendments or certain Supreme Court cases. Hope this helps, and best of luck on your first CLEP!
