    Abstract Introduction: Students enrolled in professional pharmacy programs tend to have high prior academic achievement. This achievement may be predicated on their learning strategies. However, when entering a professional program, it is unclear if their strategies change to adopt to a new, more rigorous academic environment. The purpose of this research note is to document a single cohort of students' learning strategies over time within a doctor of pharmacy (PharmD) curriculum.
    Methods: A single cohort from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Eshelman School of Pharmacy received yearly surveys regarding their learning strategies used during the past academic year. This cohort was tracked from prior to the start of the PharmD curriculum throughout the three-year duration of didactic course work. The survey was based on prior research of learning strategies.
    Results: Most learning strategies remained constant over time including the primary strategy of re-reading or re-watching videos. Using flashcards and completing practice problems decreased over time. In addition, students seem to migrate to cramming for examinations rather than spacing their study over time. Similar patterns were noted in the small cohort of students that completed all four surveys.
    Conclusions: Primary learning strategies do not seem to change with time but some secondary learning strategies may change over time.

    Abstract Conferences provide lots of opportunities to learn and poster sessions are supposed to be one of these venues. However, it seems most posters are not designed considering the reader or the venue; they are designed to reflect a potential manuscript. In this commentary, I provide a rationale why posters should be an illustrated abstract and provide some design tips to make the poster more reader friendly based on available research.

    Abstract Context: A student's academic success in graduate and professional school may depend on prior knowledge. However, these students may not see important and necessary material for extended periods of time between their pre-requisites and their new course work. As such, they are more prone to being unable to access available information from memory when needed. This study investigated the use of multiple-choice (MC) question examinations in stabilising or reactivating these students' memories for material that is available in their memories, but currently inaccessible due to disuse.
    Methods: A total of 156 incoming first-year student-pharmacists were recruited. These student-pharmacists completed a baseline examination on physiology prior to coursework. This assessment contained fill-in-the-blank (FIB) questions followed by MC versions of the FIB questions. In the experimental sets, 10 questions had MC distractor answers that were answers to a future FIB question; in the other condition, the MC distractors were not answers to future FIB questions. The primary outcome was performance on future or target FIB questions in the context of whether the prior or priming MC questions contained the answer within the distractors.
    Results: Performance on target FIB questions improved when the distractors in the MC questions contained the relevant answer (29%) compared to when the distractors did not contain the correct answer (18%) (P < .001, d = 0.78). When students could not generate a correct response to the FIB question, the experimental condition outperforming the control condition (17% vs 30%, d = 0.76).
    Conclusions: Multiple-choice questions that contained a correct response as a distractor to a future question, improved student performance. As such, the use of MC may be an inexpensive way to reactivate prior knowledge, especially knowledge that has become inaccessible due to disuse.
