it all depends on what you are trying to memorize.
if it is a vocab word in English or another language, writing 7 times or more help to memorize it.
If it is a passage, break it down. Say it to yourself over and over. take breaks between memorizing so it gives a chance for your brain to rest and absord the info. [ TheAnnie's advice column | Ask TheAnnie A Question ]

1.) acronyms are your friend. anything you can think of. lists, definitions, just memorize three or four letters at one time. your brain retains more if you do things in 2-4 sets, like phone numbers.
2.) don't necessarily understand it. be able to just recite it like a robot.
i'm really good at memorizing practically anything. i read it, look away, and recite it, and REPETITION. if you need more tips feel FREE to inbox me! it's one of my strengths, if not, then my best strength [ heybbylovee's advice column | Ask heybbylovee A Question ]
