Use 30 Questions to Find What I Haven’t Learned
Thirty questions cover the first thirty-two pages. Answer each one yourself before you flip. The ones you miss are lined up by page number into a catch-up list at the end.
Whether you get it is not something you get to declare. By here, a line like “I should know all this” is probably in your head — and that judgment can’t be verified by nodding. Familiar pages and smooth answers can both make you feel you know it, then you can’t retrieve a sentence when you need it.Reading as familiar is not proof you can answer.
This page gives you 30 questions, drawn page by page from what came before. One rule: pause a few seconds on each, say your answer out loud, then open the answer on the right. Half a sentence counts. Stalling counts. What you keep is how much you can actually retrieve right now.
Answer first, then flip. Don’t reverse that.See the answer first and your head easily fills in “right, that’s what I was thinking.” That feeling doesn’t tell you what you know and what you don’t. The ones you just missed are the useful information in this self-check.
After you flip, tap “I got this one” or “I missed this one.” Missed questions keep their source. When you finish, they’re lined up by page number into a catch-up list. You don’t reread 32 pages. You only go back to the few on the list, then come back and answer those questions again.
Before you flip each one, answer out loud. Half a sentence counts. Pulling it from your head once is itself what strengthens memory. Roediger and Karpicke compared restudy and retrieval practice in 2006; that method is unpacked in Close the Material and Let AI Quiz Me Once. If you can’t answer, keep going. Mark it honestly.
Walk one. Question 11 sets this scene: you shrink the clause to two lines in your own words and paste it. The answer reads smoothly, but it drops “whichever is later.” What I wrote first was “it didn’t read carefully enough.” After flipping, the answer says the problem is the paraphrase step — paraphrase drops conditions and exceptions first. The two lines don’t match, so I mark this one missed, then open Let AI Answer Only from the Source I Pasted and reread that stretch.
After thirty, the ones you marked missed are sorted by page number, small to large. Walk them. Catch up one page at a time, then come back and re-answer that question. If two questions point at the same page, reread that whole page.
If you get all thirty, there’s no list at the end — a different close. Take the one you’re least sure of to Let AI Quiz Me Right Now, and let her probe until you see which sentence you can’t retrieve.
