I think the study solutions are great, with one caveat. No one has yet explained how to practice the connections study style with repetative information. For example: You have 50 rashes to memorize, with multiple variables of information to remember for each. At times many are similar so they start to run together. If you make list of 1-12 and you give it pictures as you suggested, "“sun” for one, “shoe” for 2, “tree” for three ". How do you use the pre-existing list to make memories of a new topic?
