Pay attention to registration consultation

:Date: The registration deadline for the Consulting (Investment) Engineer exam in 2009 is April 17th, 18th, and 19th. One month from now, it will be the day when the exams end. I wonder how well everyone has prepared. Topic: How to read books more effectively – Experience sharing among consulting engineers. As for how to read books properly, some candidates still have their textbooks in almost new condition after taking the exams; it’s hard to imagine they can pass the exams successfully. In my opinion, “Reading a book three times ensures success.”
The first time: Skimming. First, open the table of contents and take a close look at its structure to understand the overall layout of the book, forming a mental outline of it before starting to read. Extensive reading means that it is not necessary to memorize everything that is read; rather, it is sufficient to have an impression of it and to remember it in a comprehension-based manner. Then I need to look for some information online to identify the key points. It’s easy to determine the quality of study materials. Just take out the compiled list of key topics for the exam and check what scope of content that material covers. If a material covers 90% of the content required for an exam, is it then a good material? In my opinion, it might even be worse than a material that only covers 70% of the exam content, because using such a material carries a high risk; if the material is biased in any way, things can get very bad. Although it’s necessary to summarize information concisely, one shouldn’t pursue simplicity at all costs, as this could end up putting things in the wrong order and increasing the risk of failing the exam. By comparing the distribution table you have already prepared with the summary materials, mark the additional key points in the book or write them next to relevant sections. If there isn’t enough space, you can write them on sticky notes and attach them nearby. In this way, all the key points that will be tested in the book can be identified. By using this method, less important content can be excluded, thus laying a solid foundation for subsequent memorization. 　　Second reading for memorization: The main purpose of the second reading is memorization. It involves removing any unnecessary connecting information, focusing only on the key points, and summarizing the essential vocabulary, which greatly aids memory. 　　The third time: Fill in any gaps. This final reading is usually done before the exam; some candidates even go to the examination venue in advance. During this session, one should review the content that has already been memorized, and also take a quick glance at the other sections that aren’t marked as important, just in case. For the problems that were just drawn and are difficult to memorize, the method of short-term memory can be used. 　　Through three rounds of review and memorization, I believe the key points of the entire book are now clearly stored in your mind. No matter how unconventional or difficult the exam questions may be, the same holds true for other candidates as well. As long as you perform well, no difficulty can stop you. With that, I have shared all three tips for pre-exam review; I hope everyone will pass the exam successfully and achieve their desired results. Finally, wish everyone success in their exams!
