Course vs Exam

I used the tcn module and study group 101 to study for the exam. For me, the key was making about 500 flash cards. It's a ton to memorize, but for that test memorization was super important. I would suggest reading through your material kinda quickly the first pass through and then going back and re-reading each chapter more thoroughly and making notes on everything that seems important. When you understand that chapter, move on to the next. Not sure if that helps, but it worked for me.

For me, I thought Micro was very interesting. I was pretty engaged in the material, so I suppose that is what made me memorize the material in two weeks. Only used study group 101 in preparing for the test and passed this past Tuesday with a B. Everyone learns at their own pace; study hard and take the exam only when you're ready. Best of luck!
