I am using PLi to study and am currently watching the video lectures before doing the post course. I have not read the actual MPEP other than looking up occasionally for questions. I am focusing on taking really good notes and memorizing the rules in the study guide/lectures. I also plan on skimming the most important chapters table of contents so I know what is in them, and look up on test day from there. Is this alright to do? I feel like I am getting a lot of questions right during the course without any lookup (I know these are easier than actual exam questions)
