Indispensable study aid

I'm recently back in school after many years away and I'm finding some of the older "tried and true" methods still work best at least for me. Admittedly this may be a function of both age and familiarity. Neuroscientists tell us that physically writing something creates a more permanent memory than for example typing notes on a laptop or tablet. So while I've tried taking notes on my laptop I've gone back to hand writing in a notebook and have to admit that I think my retention of information is higher using this older method. Similarly I've found that summarizing reading materials to key questions (and answers) helps in my ability to retain information. The art of course is in identifying just what is and he is not essential information. However if successful in doing so it allows for the creation of flashcards for quick and easy review and (again for me) improves retention.
I bought these index cards to make flash cards. They were reasonably priced and came with plenty of cards. They are sturdy and will hold up fine with daily use. I've purchase before and will purchase again as needed.
Hard to rate flash cards but all I can say is that they work. I use them simply as studying materials for my professional licensing exam. Yep they work.

I use these index cards as handout pieces each month. I like the fact that they are separately wrapped in groups of 100 before being packaged in an economical block of 500.
