ZJ, CPA
I think the first thing you need to do is reflect on how you study and what you do to learn a material the quieckest and best way. I know for myself, I have found that I'll remember better if I write something down. My husband, who is studying to be a paramedic, can remember complex medical lessons by only reading the chapter 3 times. I can't do it this way. I need to write it down and sometimes even say it out loud verbally. So, everyone is different.
My overall study tactic has been to watch a lecture first, then go back and take copious notes on the chapter and proceed with MC questions. This mimics what I had to do in college - go to lecture first, then study the material on my own. A psychology professor at my school, who had done extensive research on studying, told us that the best way to learn a material is to listen about it first, then read.
After I had gone through all the chapters, I go back and take notes again and do the MC questions for the second time. This has worked very well for me for REG and BEC so far.
Hope this helps. Good luck!
