    NINJA Question –

    I’ve found that making consequences when trying to get through a lot of MCQs makes the process a lot easier.

    When I say consequences I don’t mean if I get below an 80% on a session I have to do 10 push-ups. Typically it means instead of having to do 100 MCQs that evening I make it 110.

    Does anyone else doing anything similar? What works best in your opinion?

    …would love some more ways to keep me engaged.

    @okcpa2015,

    No consequence for me. But I spend 5-10 minutes and lift some weights. Helps keep the blood moving and keeps me awake and alert.

    What I did was if I got a MCQ wrong I would hand copy the question and answer on paper and look over again.

    If my plan was to answer 100 questions with 85% correct, and I didn't have 85% after the 100th question, I'd keep going until I was at 85%. This can be a nightmare at higher question counts.

    What I do is time myself for 50 minutes. During that 50 minutes o don't look up nor do I check Facebook or even my phone. I just do mcq s and carefully go over the explanation. I don't count how many questions I do because I could do 100 questions but if i don't focus then it is pointless. If i do that then I count my study session a success
