Use the Cheat Sheet to convert rules into short decision cues and workflow triggers. Use the Study Plan to turn the weighting into weekly work. Use CIRE web practice for timed drills, mixed review, and weak-area cleanup after the syllabus map is clear. Strongest use of the official source set Read the current syllabus first.
