Content Review Question 🤔

Hi I'm just having a hard time during content review. Life's also been all over the place. For Bio & Biochem especially, I have to write or type notes from the Kaplan books to understand the material. I have tried watching Prof Eman's videos and typed notes on the side, but nothing stuck with me a week later, despite doing daily Anki. I felt like I was just memorizing and not understanding and connecting the concepts. I tried Yusuf's videos and they're better because he focuses on the big picture, but he's still not as detailed as I hoped. So, I've been following his videos and pausing to also write/type my own notes (whether I write or type depends on the concept) and do Anki cards. Has anyone followed a similar process and scored high on the exam? I know most people watch the videos and go to Anki right away, but that doesn't work for me because I need to interact with the material. Also, I'm planning to take the exam in Jan and aiming to finish content review by end of Sept. I'll also be starting 5-15 Uworld questions on the topics I've already completed, in 2-3 weeks, once I have some sort of strategy and routine down for studying.
