I didn't realize how visual I was until this exam! I make charts, graphs, line drawings, infographics, and lots of colored highlighters. I'm working on one right now for post-retirement benefits. Get on YouTube and watch videos by different lecturers.

Flash cards!

Also, I'm not a visual leaner, so I don't know if this would help, but do you think reviewing your own hand-written notes would help?

Motivated by JC. I do it to make God proud.

I am multi (Visual with Read& Re Write) Some things I prefer Visual and some I prefer to read & re write. There is quite a bit of overlap between these 2. Here are a few things that work well for me.

I have a piece of scratch paper I use with MCQ's to write down bits of info as I am reading the question. Not only for calculations, for items where there is a LOT of extra info. Anytime a question has 2 or more parties I write the Initials and arrows indicating how the actions are taking place. For example in title transfer questions, “X–> Y then –>Z”. X sold something to Y who then sold to Z. I can see that Z has title and X can take action against Y. I also do this during the test.

Another tip I have found that works well is to list. The white space helps me remember if I need 5 things or 3 things when I am recalling later. If I write everything in paragraph format it is not as easy to recall.
