studying

I didn't get 100% on the respiratory muscles 14 point quiz until the 5th try (only 5 tries are allowed). One of the attempts was made before I heard the lecture, just in case I didn't listen to the lecture before I needed to take the test. I got a little over half right that time. But to get 100%, I actually had to not only listen to the lecture but also spend an hour or two or three studying the book, the slides, notes, and internet resources, not to mention driving time when my brain tried to review a muscle or few or conversations/comments with family and co-workers (i.e. did you know that some breathing muscles are attached to your arm? Your humerus, actually. Which is humorous). Random comments are one of my prefered study methods. Another is dreaming about it. That study method may be harder to carry out, though an upcoming challenging test might help.
