the author is writing this in between trying to mug.

wait, no. mugging? the definition of that is 'rote learning.' and while that can somewhat be a good thing because one probably uses less processing power, does one really 'mug', per se, for subjects that require analysis, calculation, dissectation and academic discursion? so while, admittedly, the 'mugging' that takes place involves memorising principles as if they were scripture, the overall preparation for those examinations include training oneself to use those mugged tools to produce academically sound arguments, solutions etcetera.

slightly confusing, perhaps, and the author feels that a disclaimer is warranted here.

the above paragraph was written in a state of slight inebriation.
