My personal opinion on it, if you know the material, then the format of the question should not make any difference. The key is to understand the information and not try to memorize it. This is the problem that I am finding with many of the new students, they are trying to cram, and not learn.

With cramming, you will lose the information rapidly; if you learn, then it will stay with you forever............ :wink2:
