Turning the page and forgetting everthing (revision-centric)

blaaast [Edit] [Delete] 5 replies 21:36, 12 May '08

As if there isn't enough exam or revision lectures already, here's another.

Ugh, I'm reading the most virgin-rapingly boring jargon ever and with each turn of the page I realise I can't remember as damn thing. I've just got through 25 pages of slides and *nothing* has stuck.

Massive fail.

  • This is what I did:

    Write everything out. Everything out into big notes, and then try and copy. Repeat ad infinitum.

    Or do that alk into a house memory trick that Derren Brown does.

  • What about

    after a particularly 'academic' speak paragraph - rephrase it to yourself. Or even mind map, while you revise.

    Or 'study buddy' with a friend, and mind map a page, and say it back to the other person, who has the text book in front of them.

    I'm sure it's going in with what you're doing, even if you think it isn't...

    Good luck!

    I walked past a study booth today and someone had decked it out in mind-maps and brainstorms. It reminded me of Nash's shed in A Beautiful Mind.

    Don't let it get to you.
