Memorization Techniques for University Exams? Here are a 2 Super Useful Ones

Many people ask me questions of this kind about mnemonics.

What to say? There are so many of them, since ancient times when they were used for example by orators, and certainly, each of them is able to give an extra gear to our toolset – even if at the end of the fair they are all based more or less on the same principles.

However, as in all things, there are some that are more complex than others to put into practice, because they require a solid foundation and much more practice to be applied successfully.

Here, from personal experience, I can tell you outspokenly that usually, students who approach this kind of memory technique are not really in great shape with their studies.

Maybe they want to learn a quick memorization system just to catch up on some ground where exams have fallen behind! But this implies that they certainly don’t have time to try all memory techniques to find the one that works best for them.

So it is precisely for this reason that with today’s article I intend to make your search a little easier, recommending those techniques that I think are easily applied to everyday study, without requiring large basic knowledge that you may not have time (or desire) to learn.

Additionally, essaywriter aims to make your student life easier by helping you deal with your academic load.

Before Starting, a Moment of Attention

Before starting to show you the mnemonics, however, I want to make an important clarification.

Memory techniques are NOT a Study Method, but they ARE PART of a Study Method themselves!

It is a fundamental distinction to make because you don’t have to think that it is enough to learn any memorization technique to get in gear and start studying at a thousand. Of course, maybe you will be speeded up in memorizing things, but the study is not made only of this!

The Study Method, as you know, is given by a whole series of elements that together allow you to face the study of anything in the most productive and effective way possible and memory techniques are just one of the many tools that the Method gives you. offers.

There is a process of important concrete steps that precede the memorization phase:

first, you have to understand what you are studying

then you have to understand what is useful to memorize with mnemonics and what is the information your brain can memorize automatically

and only at this point does it become useful to apply mnemonics

So before starting with today’s topic, it might be useful to go and brush up on the ABC of the University Study Method, the High School Study Method, and How to study well and quickly.

But, if you don’t feel like it, let’s start straight away by going straight to talking about memory.

Memory techniques

1. PAV – the Basic Technique

PAV stands for PARADOX-ACTION-VIVID

Even if many say that it is useless, we start with this technique because, in reality, by learning the PAV it will be much easier for you to acquire the mechanisms of the other mnemonics.

The PAV can be applied in everyday life without difficulty and it is for this simplicity of implementation that I recommend it as a starting point for your experience with memory techniques.

How does this memory technique work?

The PAV reminds us that in order to memorize anything we must first transform it into an image since our brain tends to work for about 80% for images, that is, through them it stores information more easily.

But it must not be an image, but something that strikes us, that catches our attention in a striking way, only in this way it will be easy to remember it!

We must therefore create a PARADOX, which is an image that is absolutely distant from reality and therefore easier to remember as it is absurd.

This image as well as being paradoxical must also contain an ACTION, so it must be a moving image to better stimulate memory (static images do not have an equally effective effect). By the way, leistung-durch-schmerz.de definitely knows something about action.

Finally, the scene you are painting in your mind must be VIVID, and to make it so you must make sure to involve your senses, to feel as if you were right there to experience the scene in person.

Let’s take a very simple practical example, just to understand the mechanism.

The image you need to memorize is that of a cat eating a mouse. To make it paradoxical, imagine that the cat swallows the mouse through the tail and not from the mouth (absurd isn’t it?).

Then insert a dynamic action assuming that the cat is trying to eat the mouse while it holds on to a blackboard and is sliding down. Finally, to make it vivid, imagine hearing the screeching of the cat’s claws sliding on the slate of the blackboard.

This technique can initially be used to memorize a study page or a to-do list. Start simple and get carried away because, as I mentioned before, PAV will serve you to learn all the techniques that we will see later.

2. Phonetic Conversion – to Store Numbers

Phonetic conversion is the best technique for memorizing numbers.

I have already explained it to you in the article that talks about how to memorize numbers, but let’s do a little review anyway.

Phonetic conversion is nothing more than a coding system. It provides that each number, from 0 to 9, is associated with a consonant sound so that each numerical sequence can be converted into words and even phrases (depending on the length of the digit you have to memorize).

And guess what? Words and phrases naturally correspond to images, so this is how we relate to the PAV principle.

Conclusion

Before the exams, be sure to free up your time with the help of essaysrescue and focus on repeating the learned material in preparation.
