I would like to ask two questions related to content retention.
Generally speaking,
1- At the start of your next reading session, do you scan the pages read in the preceding session to refresh your memory?
2- About what percentage of the content of a book do you retain in your memory over a long period of time ?
My own answers would be
1) Yes, I have to scan if a day or so has elapsed between reading sessions.
2) Active recall : 10% Passive recall (I will recognize the information if I encounter it again) 70%
