Knowledge Gaps – Summary
- Balance breadth with strategic depth.
Cover all topics early, then double down on high-yield and challenging areas (e.g. Tort, Trusts) without wasting time over-revising strengths. - Avoid the illusion of knowing.
The “illusion of knowing” from passive study (rereading, highlighting) is common; self-testing exposes gaps you didn’t know were there. - Generation boosts retention.
Actively recall facts (fill-in-the-blank, MCQs, teaching aloud) to strengthen memory far more effectively than recognition-based methods. - Teaching reveals weak spots.
Use the Feynman Technique—try explaining complex topics (e.g. perpetuities, hearsay) in plain English without SQE notes to pinpoint fuzziness. - Subject performance data shows where to focus.
Hardest FLK1 subjects: Tort, Business, Dispute Resolution. FLK2: Wills, Trusts, Property. Ethics scores highest but still requires practice. - Retake data reveals patterns.
Score drops on second attempts are steepest in Tort, Trusts, and Business. These subjects require fresh strategies and early attention for repeat candidates.
