The best way to study even if you can’t bring a cheat sheet is to make a cheat sheet and write everything you would write on one if you could have one. It’s an awesome method! ‘but what you’re doing here is studying. its still studying, that exact thing you didnt want to do before…?’ ‘yeah but see this is powered by hubris and spite, so like… it’s better’ I’m convinced teachers know exactly what’s up here. They’ve been students too. They’re well aware of how they operate. When people feel like they can game the system they’ll put so much effort into doing it. -- source link
