How long does it take to review a mock exam?

I work full-time, and it takes me 2 to 3 days to finish reviewing an entire mock exam, understanding each question and making flashcards. Is this normal ? I go through the questions in detail.

Secondaries DD/Underwriting

How in-depth do secondaries go into asset-level DD/underwriting? More than the GP/less than the LP? Closer to the GP or closer to the LP? What does their DD look like and how does it differ.

Anki

Does anyone use Anki for memorizing formulas for level 2? If so, does it actually help? Do you use a premade set or make your own or both? I haven’t used it before but I have heard great things. I’m not fully sure how to use the app.

Level 2 struggle

I’m taking level 2 in November and I’ve gotten through quant, Econ, and I’m about to finish the first two readings of FSA. That being said I’m scoring terribly on everything and there’s some subjects where I’m still completely lost even though I do the reading/questions/ and video sometimes. I’m no longer concerned about finishing the material in time but I’m much more concerned about actually understanding and being able to know what the question is really asking. Anybody else in the same situation? Any advice on how to get these topics down more? Is this normal for level 2?

Level 2 Memory retention

Any advice for level 2 in terms of memory retention. How do I keep in mind the concepts I went over months prior? Do most candidates do a day of review like once a month? I typically write by hand in my notebook but maybe I should start typing in my laptop my notes so that I could go back more easily to them? Thoughts on that as well? Any comments on this concept for level 2 I would really appreciate.

LP-> GP

How can I go from a large LP to the GP side from a non target? I have co-investment experience and I’m younger for context. Most realistic way. MBA from a top 20 program? Just try to network my way/ use my LP network? I’m more specifically focused on Infra PE
