BarBri "active" review?

Post by mvpforme » Thu May 29, 2014 6:15 pm

What are you all doing for active review? Retyping your class notes, making flashcards?

I think retyping sounds good, but IDK if it is very efficient and it seems like it could take hours.

I posted this in the other topic, but I've been doing flashcards so far. I didn't do flashcards for torts, and got a lower score on the torts MPQ than on the contracts MPQ where I did do flashcards (despite feeling a lot more lost with contracts). Active review for me entails writing things out, so I might as well do flashcards. If I try to speak out loud at home, I just don't go through material. I also found the flashcards helpful today, where I reviewed half of the contracts flashcards while on the elliptical at the gym. But that's me...

Maybe re-watching the lecture and taking new notes?

I make flashcards from my lecture handouts. I started creating them using copy and paste from AMP, but have found I retain more if I wait until after the lecture and just type. I use flashcardmachine which allows me to study from any e-device and that is very helpful.
