Does anyone have any advice for consolidating what you've learned across different question types when doing PTs and timed sections? I feel like I've learned so much in the Core Curriculum and in drills that I can't consciously remember every lesson or strategy while working through questions. Is that normal, and what's the best way to make those concepts stick?
How do I work on retaining and applying the lessons from my mistakes and tips/advice over time? I think a big issue I'm having is timing and what methods and steps to rely on under pressure!
Would appreciate any advice!! #help

Flash cards or other ways to drill strategies is a good way to help you connect what you should be doing with a question type. With flash cards, you get the benefit of writing down your strategies and reminders to help internalize them and a quick and easy habit to work in as part of your studying. They're great for warming up and/or cooling down with in a session to help build up the repetition with minimal friction.
Another way to help reinforce what I should be thinking about is explicitly saying in my head what the question type is after I've read it.
