# Answer Generation
Attempt to generate answers to questions before you learn how to solve them. The attempt at answering the question before doing any reading will make the reading you do after seem more valuable to your brain, and so you'll remember it significantly better. For example in law, try to write an essay about a topic before you read about it, drawing upon your related knowledge of other topics to try to find out what you INFER the answer should be. Once you finish the essay, then read the relevant material and see where you went wrong/where your intuition was right
