For Ninja MCQ for BEC, I’ve decided to just nail the MCQs enough times until I take the exam and review the Ninja notes exclusively. When I get an answer incorrect, is it better to write the question and the answer down or is it better to just right the explanations down. I’ve only been doing explanations. I feel like If I do just the question and answer than i’m gonna memorize it and expect it to be word for word on the exam which I highly doubt it will work like that at least for me. Or is it a memorization test and I should do it the other way?

I would definitely think that writing out the explanation is the way to really absorb the concepts. That's the method I've been doing.

FAR - 74 (7/20/15), 81 (10/12/15)
AUD - 72 (11/30/15), 81 (1/18/16)
BEC - 87 (6/6/16)
REG - 8/8/16

It is a tough question to answer actually. There are some memorization questions, and others that you will have to relate to a concept to come up with the correct answer.

I use a virtual bell curve in my mind to figure out whether or not to worry about the questions I got wrong:
-If a questions is very difficult and seems like an outlier, I read the answer only and not write it.
-If it is something that represents the fundamental concepts in a different way or the review materials did not explain well, then I write it down.

Remember that there will be only few number of questions for each topic and there is only so much you can retain. Knowledge is power in the exam and it comes from nailing (memorizing or learning) the main concepts.

Hope these help.
