A few extra points to add: - expanding on repeating: Enumerate and solve/memorize every permutation of a problem/theorem/etc. (ex: in f = ma, what happens if m is high and a is low and the reverse). Each case becomes a subroutine (or a chunk) in your brain that quickly fires once memorized. - explaining your understanding of a topic does not translate to the ability of applying that understanding to an actual application The writing was superfluous and can be summed up in 2-3 points, although enjoyable to read as a story if you're up for that. I'm a bit disappointed because the title is misleading. The author didn't really rewire her brain. She just spent more time learning and set a different goal (of trying out every permutation instead of simply doing well on tests) than her classmates.
