I have used this with my Year 12 class in preparation for their major external exams. I have a very small class and they are now sharing the workload, meaning they can free up their time for more preparation. My class is also using it to answer the summary questions. They each get a set number of questions one night and then another set another night. The weaker students benfit as they can see the depth the better students go into. The better students can read other people's interpretation of a question and add more if required, but doing revision at the same time. We have moved through the questions in "record-speed" and they are motivated to do more. It's great! It is refreshing to learn that other people have also done this.

This would be a great way to collabroatively prepare for comprehensive exams in my doctoral program. Since our program is totally online, and we are all scattered around the globe, this would be a great way to set up virtual study groups. I wish I had come across this idea earlier.
