Thank you guys. Personally, I understand that all i have to do is practice, practice and practice, but it's easier said than done. I can't retain anything this time around and just a thought of studying for the lost credit kills my motivation....

my retention technique is to make cliff notes on top of cliff notes.

first i write notes as listening to lectures

then as I miss problems I track the problems i missed

i then write "bromides" or short notes that capture what i missed or important concepts to memorize

i then take the sims and then the exams and write learnings from there.

i then redo all the problems i missed and the prac exams.

i then consolidate them all together and highlight the common things i am missing.

before the actual exam in the morning i just keep writing free form as many conceptual things that I need to keep straight.

once i walk into the exam i start just writing as many of those things on my scratchsheet.

everything after that is your understanding of the concepts.

Thanks, sadduaks. I am doing Wylie
questions as we speak and still scoring low. I don't know
how to retain this stuff.


I think you should concentrate more on the basics then just
practising the questions. questions can be framed in
Millions of ways but the concept never changes. If your
basic is clear u will be able to answer any question.
Practising question will just make you feel better before
the exams.

Dear Bella,

BEC is a decoy. Don't think of something which is no more
yours. Concentrate on REG and once done it is matter of
time before you clear BEC. Be positive...
