well how many times would ya'll recommend me going through this? This is not for fun, learning the system(well it is but not the main focus) and things of the nature, but is for history. She told us to read the book, and then this thursday I am having a test on it. It will probably be multiple choice, fill in the blank, etc cuz thats how the last one was. I believe its just strictly on comprehensation, just a test to make sure we read the book. So far Ive done about a third of the book and I think I was going rather slow. I do understand a few of the people and what side they are on/what they are doing, but thats all. There were 5 chapters of them all just talking and I have no idea what they were talking about then.
What should I try and go for on each pass, to make it through quickly and easily, and to feel like I have read the book? I know the case will be different for all people, but as a beg. PR, I am not quite sure how much I should pick up and what it feels like for each pass to build on, and want to gain more than I have on the first pass. When you mention just knowing the main characters basically, that doesnt seem like anything, then going back and getting the plot, etc. How should I do this? And hopefully I can apply the same techniques to the other book in the other class I gotta have read by Friday. books, tests everywhere this week! man its a busy school week
