SOME IMPORTANT THINGS DURING EXAMS

SOME IMPORTANT THINGS FOR EXAMS

1. A very effective way of structuring information for revision is to draw up a full, color coded of the subject.
2. This will enable you to see the overall structure of the topic, and make associations between information.
3. A good color coded Mind Map can be an effective way of remembering information in its own right.

HOW TO REMEMBER ANSWER

1. The problem with this is that you can forget the label on a line on a Mind Map.
2. A more reliable method is to take your Mind Map of a subject, and break it down into a list of important points and facts on a large sheet of paper.
3. This list can be ordered into general subject areas.
4. This list should be numbered. Beside all the important facts you can note down associated and supporting information.

HOW TO REMEMBER EACH SUBJECT

1. By associating items on a list with a peg such as a number,
2.  we can check that we have retrieved all items held by a mnemonic.
3. This numbered list can be remembered using some of the mnemonic techniques explained in Mind Tools.
4. For longer lists we can use The Journey System, remembering key facts at each stop in the journey.
5. Supporting facts can be associated into images or sub-mnemonics triggered at these stops in the journey system, or can be loosely associated in general memory to be retrieved by the cues of the main facts...
