Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Retention is bring able to recall a particular thing. In this case, based on my understanding of measures of retention, I'll respond to Jorge by telling him that he shouldn't prepare for an essay test but rather a multiple choice question.

An essay test is simply a firm of recall and this may not be ideal to retrieve memories when compared to recognition. In this case, rather than preparing for an essay, preparing for a multiple choice may be the better idea.
