Mnemonics? Revise them over as long a time as possible but never study for more than two hours without a break- your brain refuses to soak up any more information after that point.

To keep memory perfectly active you should daily solve some mathematical puzzles,listen to good music and avoid too much sex-thoughts.You may read a book named "101WAYS TO IMPROVE YOUR MEMORY" published by Reader's Digest.It's a good book.

Whatever you do, don't stay up all night before the exams. Make sure you get enough sleep. Focus on the things that you do not know but are not too complicated to learn before the exams, and learn those. Try to learn everything, even if you do not feel sure about it. Some tips for studying:\n-invite a friend over and quiz each other.\n-Use flashcards- they never fail.\n-Have somebody (parent, sibling...) quiz you while you exercise.\n-Make (or ask someone else to make) a small quiz for each subject, and take it until you get all of the answers right. If you are feeling nice, make copies and give them to your friends to help them study.

What I did in College to "memorize" info was make one handwritten sheet front and back of what I felt were the most important things ie: most likely to be on the test. I went over them again and again until I could tell you everything that was on them. To do this I would first take down notes from the text book. I then took my lecture notes and notes from the text and saw the points that overlapped, those are likely the things that will be on the test. I used those overlaps to make my study sheets.\n This method would work well for the 4 subjects that require memory. Limiting it to one sheet front and back makes the amount more doable. Doing it this way you have already added a few more times through the material as well.\n  The best way to feel less overwhelmed by the amount of information that you need to learn is to have a plan as to how you are going to do it.

Try Mind Mapping!!!\nWrite all the most important facts that need to be remembered on que cards, study them and then shuffle them and map them back together. That way u will remeber the facts and all the little bits that connect them!!!!!

Unless there's not a lot of material, never study the day before. split up the material over a time period that would allow you to study for it without feeling overloaded. What worked for me is reviewing all the material 1 or 2 days before the exam after having studied it all. \nSay you have 5 chapters for an exam. \nDay 1 study chapters 1 & 2, highlighting the important facts. \nDay 2 study chapters 3 & 4. \nDay 3 study chapter 5. \nDays 4 and/or 5 review the material that you highlighted. \nSometimes writing important notes while studying helps you remember.

Simply put, just memorize more and more often. Look at something every day for 30 mins and chances are, you will remember it.\n\nYou can also use visual cues to memorize something. For example, if you have to go golfing, out to dinner, and buy a hat, you might think about a guy wearing a hat, swinging a golf club, with a piece of food in his mouth, then you'll remember all three.\n\nAlso, understanding is an important part. If you understand what a definition means, then you'll remember it better. Write down that definition and say it aloud just as often as you read it, and you'll remember 3x better than if you had just scanned it over.\n\nAs for diet, it doesn't really matter. Try to eat something healthy, that will get the body fuels pumping. Plenty of sleep, and you'll remember.

Wow!..Law!!..you need to remember lots of things then..I'm a student myself...but, I believed that if you are really interested with what you are doing, it's easier to understand what you are learning, thus leading to easier to recall it. But, to really test yourself if you really want to have a good memory, you must always test your brain, think!, think!, think!. Our brain are much more better at storing info when compared to computers.\nTry this: Every time you red something, understands it, and try to write it all over again, without looking at the book again...Understand is important, this will help you remember better. I've also been practicing eating beans, make it like once a week, heard that they help improving our memory.

To improve your memory power, there are a lot of things you should do/try. But here are a few ones!\n1- Get to know yourself better by learning:\n\nWhat is the best way for you to learn, eg, By reading, writing, listening, talking ( teaching someone else the same thing), being taugh by someone ( anybody you like to learn with), Learning in groups, etc...?\n\nWhat is your best learning strategy/ies according to the way you learn, your schedule and so on!, eg, \nHow much time do you need to study on something before you can understand and remember it ( how much pratice?)!?\n\nIn what kind of environment do you best learn: Library, School, while listenning to music, etc...?\n\nWhat motivates you to learn that/ those things/subjects?\n\n2- What do you wanna do in the future, Whatever it is, give an extra 90 percent for that subject/s alone!\n\n3- Take your time and do not push!\n\nNow all you gotta do is try these techniques and put them into action! But It will neither be easy nor quick! But It will work!\n\nGood luck! SEE YA!

I found the best way to study for my exams was to breakdown everything I needed to know into little topics.\n Then I would get a piece of a3 paper and do big spider diagrams for each topic and draw pictures to help me remember. I used to make up little songs and rhymes as well. Sounds stupid but it work. \nOh and when your in your exam a good tip someone once gave me was: read though the whole exam paper, put a tick next to all the questions you definatley know the answer too. Then question marks next to the ones where maybe you know the answer and a cross next to the one you havent a clue. Then go and do all the questions with ticks, by which time you brian is focus and you will probably have remember the maybe (question mark ones) ones so that when you come to the lasts crosses (havent got a clue ones) one you brian is correctly in gear and the crosses will hopefully be question marks if not ticks!! hope that makes sense. good luck

study!!\n\nthats what im advised to do all the time!
703507
1. Have a regular time and location to study.\n\n2. Get ahold of upcoming lessons and read ahead. *The reason for this is important. If you study ahead - when you do take the subject in class it is a review for you. You'll actually be ahead of the class when preparing for your exam.\n\n3. Work with someone who can help you - not distract you. * This is a mastermind technique you'll use in the business world. Get use to it.\n\n4. No TV. ( a little quiet background music is acceptable)\n\n5. Learn memory techniques. Do not rely on rote memory. * Use ridiculous association for subjects where you have alot of facts to remember. Your mind is like a filing cabinet. If you don't have a filing system you won't know how to retrieve the knowledge when you need it.\n\n6. Use colored post its to mark , "must knows, could knows, and should knows. Remember - most of your hard cover books are filler. Focus on what your teacher wants you to know.\n\n7. Eating before study causes blood to go from the brain to the stomach. Watch when you eat.\n\n8. Get plenty of rest. Don't party on school nights.\n\n9. Do "all your assignments!" "Write all your tests!" - falling behind because of missed assignments or classes will make studying difficult. If you have to miss a class - have someone provide you with notes and <ask> the teacher if you're confused. DO NOT FALL BEHIND!!!! Knowing your subject is like building a house. If you miss information your foundation will be weak and your house will not hold up! That's why students who miss class have a bad time of it.\n\n10. Set a goal for yourself in each subject you take and shoot high. That is to say...shoot for an A and you'll most likely get a B. Write your goal in the present tense - I.e. It is Jun 2007 and I have completed Math 30 with an A plus. (Describe the reaction of your teacher/parents/friends and how good you feel about achieving your goal. "Remember - if a goal doesn't have a time limit set on it - your goal is just a dream!"\n\n11. Never get into a tiff with your teacher - show genuine interest and you'll see a higher grade.\n\n12. Keep good notes - no...excellent notes. Notes that refer back to your text book and highlight the must knows! Have a table of contents.

I find making lots of notes helps. There are other ways - concept maps, diagrams, reading through your work, asking your teachers for practise exams, going through things with a friend so that if you've missed work you can help each other out. These are just a few examples, find one which works best for you. But don't forget thatwhile studying you should have a break every hour or so, or have an extra curricular activity outside of school so that you're not locked away studying all the time. Too much study can be hazardous to your health, breaks can help and keep you focused.

When you study, don't cram the night before. Study over your notes et cetera 4 times a day every day at times when you are in a quiet room with mo interruptions. \n\nHappy Trails!

take notes and study them. Notes are the best way to remember what you need to know for a test.
