1. Repeat and Review: Choose a class you struggle with sometimes. Find a question in your notes or in your homework or on a benchmark that you struggled with OR that you think other people struggled with. Fill out your TRF based on this to review the process for this question.
2. Dig Deeper: Choose a topic you want to know more about, write a question related to it, and research the answer.
