The tips begin at a different place in each module. The advice moves along with the stages of the course.

Mnemonic devices are memory techniques to help your brain better encode and recall important information. Mnemonic devices are especially useful in MCAT review for the biological sciences and psychology. These subjects have an aspect which is, basically, rote memory work. Techniques such as peg-word method or method of loci may seem strange and ridiculous, but they are uncannily effective. MCAT review is a good opportunity to learn these techniques. Skill with mnemonic devices will become a big asset in medical school.
