Machelle (& others),

This is what really helped me to remember what specific areas were covered on my version of an exam: I would bring my personal study notes with me when I went to take the exam, and as soon as I got back in my car, I would go down the list and check off the areas I knew were covered. My personal study notes usually consisted of a summarized version of the IC notes, so actually seeing the list of items I studied would help to prompt me to recall whether or not I had questions to do with that specific area. It also prompted me to make some notes about specific questions asked. Although we are not allowed to post the actual questions, I think that giving other IC members "tips" on what to make sure to study is a big help to everyone. (I think it was Snazz that helped to give me this idea.)

Hope that helps.
