Study tips for ISC?

Hi, just started studying for ISC and I would like some advice on how best to prepare for this exam. I’m not super technologically saavy but I have no desire/interest in taking BAR or TCP.

This exam seems like it will require a lot of memorization. Is that the general consensus for ISC? For those who have taken it, how did you study for the exam? For other tests, I usually go through all the lectures first and then practice MCQs and TBSs over and over again (I have Becker). I have never used flash cards before, but would that be useful for ISC?

How extensive should my memorization be for the exam? For example, should I know the definitions for all 18 CIS controls or know the objectives for each of the COBIT management and governance domains?

In the past I have memorized formulas and rules, but never lines of text and definitions. It seems like that may be necessary for this exam, but I’d like to get others advice before I really jump into my studies. Thank you for any help/advice!
