• If your problem is I: Try relevant Tut + RP Structured Qns, ask yourself what is the difference between your answer and the one in Tut / Lecture Notes, come up with "standard explanations" for typical Qns
• If your problem is M: Try relevant Tut Structured + RP MCQs (write down why each option is right or wrong), ask yourself what concept / definition do I need in the Qns
• If your problem is U: Try relevant Tut + RP Structured + *RP Qns, highlight keywords + info in the Qn (write down what they mean / tell you), ask yourself what is the Qn asking for / telling me?
