The force was strong with Mark but there was much anger in him.

Passing a test is different than remembering an idea and being able to use it. I read SusanSUmmer's "Eat cheat and win" diet book in the bookstore and I remember what the diet is enough to follow it but if I had to take a test on what was in the book I would fail- even if I read all the small details I wouldn't remember them on one pass. Even slow reading takes multiple passes. The only way to remember something in one pass is to use a memory technique from NLP or something- like if someone gives you a definition and you make a silly song out of it, something like that you can't forget and will haunt you in the middle of the night when you don't want it to.
