Chunking — triage and high-yield first passes. For a fast pass, freeze new meaningful chunks two weeks out and only retire leeches and high-yield lists.
Scores here are relative ranks inside this atlas, not lab grades or official cut scores.
Weeks
- public outline → meaningful chunks
Build meaningful chunks only for facts that can reappear as a name, number or list.
- High-yield first
Put ordered lists into meaningful chunks before commentary.
- Daily due only
If time is short, drop new meaningful chunks and pay the due queue. That is the pass, not a failure.
- Exile chronic fails
Move chronic fails off infinite meaningful chunks and learn them as a one-page list.
- Freeze and retrieve
Two weeks out, zero new meaningful chunks. Leftover minutes go to closed-book dumps.
- Eve light
Do a short due pass of meaningful chunks, then sleep. Do not inflate the pile at 1 a.m.
Shortcuts
- One-fact rule — If the answer for meaningful chunks has an "and", split it.
- Hide the answer — meaningful chunks that shows the answer in the prompt is reading practice, not recall.
- Ten-second map — Suspend meaningful chunks you cannot map to public outline in ten seconds.
- Image one label — For a diagram, hide one label per meaningful chunks, not the whole figure.
- Sleep after due — A short due pass of meaningful chunks then sleep beats a 1 a.m. rewrite binge.
Triage
- Must-name facts — Keep meaningful chunks for names, numbers and lists that can be asked verbatim.
- Skip unasked prose — Do not turn commentary into meaningful chunks unless the sitting asks you to recite it.
- Procedure off-queue — A multi-step procedure belongs on a worked sheet first, then maybe one meaningful chunks per step.
- Freeze before sitting — New meaningful chunks stops when the calendar says the sitting is inside two weeks.
Educational atlas — not an official syllabus, medical advice, or leaked item bank. Chunking: Keep the public outline in view and treat this page as method, not a leaked key.
