Studying

The funny looking diagram on the right is a flow-chart I made studying for my securities regulation exam. I do get to take this into the test itself but keep a couple things in mind:
  1. This chart only covers a little under half the material that will be on the exam;
  2. I won't really have time to read this during the test, so I memorize it as I make it;
  3. This is only a very rough map of the law we're being tested on - it doesn't include many of the cases or the actual text of the codes.
This is my version of an outline. Some people write more traditional looking outlines (I., A., B., etc.) but I'm pretty visual so this works better for me.
