Do it until i can't get it wrong, that'll be my motivational phrase from now on.

In the past I've made the mistake of doing it until I get it right once or twice.

Thank you for your good advice.

AI is a good idea, It might be the best way to get enough practice targets, given i prompt it with real examples from my course. Ty.

I have to ace a 70 question test for my college algebra course... If I fail again I'm out for good.

I slept throughout most of the homework assignments (I have my reasons, work related issues) and I'm already on my second attempt at this course. This test is my last chance.

I'm looking for your best advice on how to focus and actually assimilate the information.

Each one topic is really easy on its own, but when confronted with 70 questions, each topic with its own caveats... I struggle to remember procedures, "side effects" or common tricks, e.g. I forgot how to factorize (x^3 +1) in the middle of resolving a fraction division and lost an invaluable half hour finding out how mad easy it was... I need to internalize such trivialities at my core on top of learning all the mayor topics.

And advice, tips and tricks to study? I have a good month to get ready.
