Preparing for another SAP hybris exam. Since university days, I’ve had the habit of creating a structured exposition of ideas while reading lectures/books/documentation.

At the initial levels, it coincides with the table of contents, but further on, the “branches” reflect individual sections or paragraphs not highlighted in the original structure. Another plus of this approach is the personal grouping of ideas in addition to the one already present in the source.

The attached file is only useful to myself; yet, I know for certain that I’ve conquered this material as each item is read and remembered – it can be easily recalled by hooking onto a “mental anchor.”

In college, I somewhat “cheated” with these structures. A day before the exam, I’d approach the professor with a similar schema (up to the third level of nesting) and ask – is this permissible to use? Having received an affirmative answer, the next day I came with a schema up to the fifth or sixth level of nesting. Permission was granted and the professor didn’t check a second time. The main benefit of such structures at university was that they helped me memorize lists – for instance, if something comprises ten components, recalling those ten items was torture for me. But ask me about any of the ten – I could easily elaborate. Exam questions often asked to “list…”. That’s where the structure was helpful.
