If you're going through the cards and getting them ALL right, you are ready for the test. Be sure to concentrate on the ones you are missing, write the question number down and at the end of the test, use the review option to go back over the question again and again and again until you no longer miss it. Then, after you don't miss any, go over each section again, using the scramble function to ask the questions out of order. This keeps you from memorizing the order in which they are asked. After you can go through them using the scramble method, and not miss any, you ARE ready for the test.

When I first started IC, I too used to type the answers in. I found it VERY irritating when I would misspell a word and get it wrong (I'm studying the test, not typing). In turn, I simply stopped typing the answer and just did it all in my head using the method above. I usually go through each section 4-5 times to to get to where I have them memorized, I don't start writing down the ones that I missed until the third round as I'm still learning up to that point. For me this method has proven very effective, may I add very boring, but effective. My mantra is: Memorize, Regurgitate, Brain Dump, Start Process on next test; not a pretty mental picture but it works. Hope this helps! Good Luck and let us know how your first one went. Lee
