Study Methodology and Recommendations
The primary purpose of copying vocabulary is to provide the fastest way to boost Reading scores for the SAT and IELTS.
Students are advised not to copy vocabulary merely as a formality or to cope with requirements. Instead, they should dedicate at least hour per day to copying words while actively memorizing them.
After the manual copying process, students should transfer the words into a digital application such as Quizlet or Anki.
Anki is specifically recommended over other apps because of its Spaced Repetition functionality, which is highly effective for long-term vocabulary retention.
