I recently finished all of Mike's gen chem and organic chem videos and questions. I took very thorough notes and made sure to understand each problem. However, I did not memorize everything such as the formulas and how to approach the problems. In other words, I understand why the approach to a problem is correct when I look at my notes, but I probably couldn't come up with that on my own yet. How do you recommend memorizing everything for orgo and especially gen chem? Do I just dive into bootcamp practice exams or should I stare at my notes and memorize them? I tried making condensed study guides of my notes for chemistry, but it was taking up a lot of time.
For bio, I read the 500 paged notes and added any extra info into the 120 paged notes so that I have a very thorough condensed version of notes. I was planning on reading through some of it each day over and over again until I felt I had it memorized. Is this a good strategy? I don't learn from flashcards very well.
For QR, I have finished 6 practice exams in the Math destroyer book. I feel like I understand the general pattern now and have taken notes as well. I was planning on finishing the rest of these practice exams and then moving onto the bootcamp practice question banks and exams.
As far as PAT, I haven't looked at it as much. I scored an 18 on the PAT booster practice exam 1 (I probably could have scored higher if I hadn't been interrupted several times throughout taking it while being timed). I'm planning on setting aside an hour each day to do generators on bootcamp and PAT booster to bring up this score.
For RC, I have just been trying to read everyday and plan to just use the bootcamp exams as practice.
I really hope I am in a position where I can take the exam on the day I have scheduled. I don't want to pay to reschedule it and especially don't want to retake it. But I feel like I am running out of time. I would greatly appreciate any comments or advice!
