Fair point, but I guess I'm just saying that to learn those types of facts for the tests you might want to make notes. That's how I seem to take things in the best anyway, and of course my study techniques might not be the best for other people.
Quick update.... Am onto page 112 (Thunderstorms) of 180 pages in the Met book and decided to do the 3 example exams in the Q&A Simplifier book and got 100%, 100% , and 95% test scores so that has been a real confidence booster.
Am feeling almost ready for the actual exam on Sunday so will definitely have a go. Will post back afterwards.
