Preparing for exams: how to memorize more with ease

Determine your study style
We are all different, so we will have different strategies for preparing for the exam. Be guided by your own personality traits. If you are an audialist, read your textbooks and notes aloud; if you are a kinesthetician, write your notes as a cheat sheet and plan your answer.
Another effective method is a mind map. This is a great way to structure information, refresh your knowledge, and get up to speed on a subject even after a long time. Learn more about how to make mind maps and how to work with them here.

What questions should I study first? If you understand the subject pretty well over the course of the semester, start with the questions you have some idea about. Read more here: https://www.hometownstation.com/news-articles/9-studying-hacks-to-help-you-pass-your-next-exam-387589
It also makes sense to start with difficult questions, allotting enough time to study them. It is better to deal with them before you get tired and lose concentration. Leave the easy questions for later.

And be consistent. Stick to your chosen strategy, even if you start to panic as the exam approaches.

Aim for comprehension, not memorization.
Get into the ticket, not try to memorize it. Memorizing is a losing strategy, and is more time-consuming. Find logical connections in the questions, think of associations.

Of course, in every subject there is information that you need to know by heart: dates, formulas, and definitions. But even these are easier to memorize if you understand the logic.

A good method when you need to prepare for the exam in a short period of time. It takes only three days, but there is a lot of work to be done. Each day you need to work through all the material, but at a different level, constantly going deeper.

On the first day you read your entire syllabus or manual, to refresh your knowledge of the subject, roughly speaking - to get involved. Conventionally, we believe that you can already pass the exam with a "C".
