I’m having a hard time remembering things that I need to remember. Usually, I read one section (3-5 paragraphs) and I try to paraphrase what I have just read from the beginning but I cannot. I need to look back at the beginning in order for the information to come back to me. How do you guys remember the things you need to remember? Do you NEED to read it more than once to remember it for the AP exam? Right now I’m reading the AMSCO book first and then the text book. However, some things aren’t sticking to my mind. Are there any outlines that are good to review? Any flashcards? … or should I just keep reading the AMSCO book over and over again?

Also, how should I ask my teacher specific questions? Usually, they seem to be irrelevant so should I just find a time where it is relevant to talk about them or go to my teacher afterschool?
