Good way of memorizing TCSEC & ITSEC?

Expect

One of the only topics I am unable to get into my head , I do remember what each of the letters mean etc, but not in depth details.
for example, that object reuse is in C2.

any tips?

Upon speaking with my boot camp instructor, I learned (at least from his advice) that you should not be worried about memorizing the information within each level, but you should make sure you know the concepts, in order to differentiate between two very similar answers and provide the most appropriate control/answer to the "problem you are trying to solve" in the question. I was worried about the same exact thing, and he assured me that if you know the concepts, you should be okay (with a firm understanding of any applicable terms). We shall see when I take my exam on Saturday if he was right or not.

I will appreciate if you could update this thread once you're over with the exam, without violating the NDA

If you could remember it as it appears here... you should be fine.

I wouldn't stress over the levels too much. However, if you do want to stress over them, the technique that worked for me was just writing out a list of the key details for each level and memorizing it by rote.

I made a calculated decision to skip memorizing each individual level and instead learn what each program did.

No need for the memorization. Theory, theory, theory.
