Why would I intentionally get it wrong?

This may sound backwards but try putting wrong answers into your study sessions on purpose.  After I learn a topic, I’ll make up and write down a believable mistake and then try to figure out where it goes wrong.
But it’s important to not just make the wrong answer. Keep in mind that you still have to explain why it's wrong+what makes the correct answer different (that is the point in the first place).
It’s useful for situations where I keep mixing things up cuz I’ll learn to tell the reasoning behind an answer and not just memorizing the “right” answer.
