FAQ
When should I fill it out?
Use it right after a study block or at the end of the day while the gaps are still fresh. Waiting until the next morning usually makes the weak spots less specific.
How long should the review take?
Five to ten minutes is enough if you focus on what you learned, what confused you, what you missed, and the next small action.
Should I paste all class notes into this template?
No. Keep full notes elsewhere. This review should capture the takeaway, the weak spots, and the next review tasks so it stays quick to complete.
Can it help make flashcards?
Yes. Use the recall prompt section for terms, formulas, definitions, and missed questions that need active practice instead of rereading.
