Memory....

I have rediscovered mindmaps.
As previously mentioned I struggle with categorisation into lists, but after reading the whole thing about MECE it occurred to me that I used mindmaps when I was revising for the primary, so I've started using them again.
It's actually quite a relief to realise that the reason I used them before is because to me they make sense.
If you have no idea what I'm talking about see here. If that doesn't make sense (it's a mind map you're looking at), then see here or here.
Personally I think they work really well for me, and this morning has all been about Cardiac Anaesthesia, including everything to do with CPB, post-op management and complications. I couldn't quite fit it all onto one page of A4, but I could have managed it on a sheet of A3 I think.
And that's with my normal sized writing.
