First, the complex nature of the information absolutely requires a thorough understanding at bare minimum. I believe that using a journey method, loci, or linking, will add a kind of "retrieval cue" which would otherwise have been vague at best if I had to retrieve the information from the dark-vast universe of my mind. So there certainly is a benefit to structuring the information in a logical manner and arranging it in an intimate visual-spatial setting in my mind. Second, drawing on the complex nature of the material, again, I believe using a mind map that is intimately linked to the retrieval image (which is placed in each loci) will help consolidate space.

Ok, I've been thinking about how to convert med school information (i.e., First Aid for the USMLE) into a format that can easily be retrieved and have come up with a few options...I'll keep it short and to the point. <span>First, the complex nature of the information absolutely requires a thorough understanding at bare minimum.

I'm not absolutely certain if this is the most efficient way to memorize this type of info, but it's the best I can come up with thus far. I'll post updates to my progress once I begin t Summary
