+100 for "Please, Just Work More Examples, I Swear It Helps".

I don't have nearly as impressive a backstory as you do here, but I did apply spaced repetition to my abstract algebra class in my math minor a few years back. I didn't do anything fancy, I just put every homework problem and proof into Anki and solved/rederived them over and over again until I could do so without much thinking.

I ended up walking out with a perfect score on the 2 hour final - in about 15 minutes. Most of the problems were totally novel things I had never seen before, but the fluency I gained in the weeks prior just unlocked something in me. A lot of the concepts of group actions, etc. have stuck with me to this very day, heavily informing my approach to software engineering. Great stuff.

Great story! This is exactly the kind of thing that we see all the time at Math Academy, that I saw in the classes I taught, and that many MA users report experiencing -- but unfortunately, lots of people find it counterintuitive and have a hard time understanding/believing it until they experience it firsthand.
