Has anyone successfully used spaced repetition for highly associative knowledge? Ie opposite end of the spectrum from say vocabulary or encyclopediac fact sets... say a major mythology or a body of case law or an industrial sector history (including key stats)

🙋🏻‍♀️New York Bar exam’s essay portion. For the multistate portion, the usual fact set memorization. For essays, I made cue cards based on vocabulary trigger words, with extrapolations on the back. Spaced reps throughout the study period to learn 3 years of law school in a few mos.

Yes. I used to highlight texts while reading, pull those highlights into Anki, and then convert them into active recall flashcards using either cloze deletion (fill in the blank) or Q&A.

In such cases the spaced repetition is all about the associative memory just like memory palaces or other memory techniques. And ofc there are still a lot of bear facts to recall of all of those
