Comments on General Test Study Strategy

I just wanted to make some comments with how I am studying for this exam in case you look at my stuff and say, "What the heck!"

I am approaching this from an outline memorization approach, and to that end, I use a lot of mnemonic devices (particularly words or phrases out of acronyms).

I am trying to get the basic framework and check lists in my head, and then I can fill in additional details.

There are, of course, many other ways to study. I would love to post your ideas as well. Email me or comment.
