Study MCQs By Topic With References
- Do divide MCQs by topic and discuss them in a study group to compare why one answer is best and why others are wrong.
- Always jot down a reference for each answer to avoid long arguments and wasted time.
Reference Answers Early
- Do reference answers from the start to prevent endless arguments about which option is best.
- Use disagreements as learning moments because arguing helps solidify memory.
Remembered Questions Can Be Flawed
- Beware that many MCQs are remembered and may be remembered incorrectly or even asked badly.
- Focus study on exam-relevant facts rather than over-analysing possibly flawed remembered questions.
