Reading for comps--even beginning to read for them--is an intricate process. I have most of the books on the list, but some of the articles and a few of the books are not yet in my possession. Am I waiting until everything is assembled? No--but I envy those organized souls who keep notebooks for each class they attend, and could find their syllabi for any given course in a matter of minutes, not days. Were I to do this over, knowing what I'll need to do to finish this part of my work, I would have meticulously gathered all my readings and notes in a series of labeled notebooks stored safely away.
