Hey guys, I thought I'd share something that has helped me get better at angle ranking in my studies. Keep in mind that this is my worst section of the PAT so this might not seem helpful to most of you.
So my strategy is a little add-on to the laptop method. I picture the angle like a laptop on a desk like usual, then I ask myself, "which screen would I rather watch a movie on?", or something like that. Usually the screen you'd rather watch is the one closer to 90 degrees. This is mostly helpful for the angles around 90 degrees. I don't know why, but this has sort of helped the angles "click" in my mind, while before they just all looked the same.
So this might seem really stupid, but it helped me, so I thought it might help some of you out there getting frustrated with the CDP angle practice (if you haven't already figured out the answer patter, lol). I've been getting around 13-15 out of 15 on most of them now, when before it was about 10-11 out of 15.
