don't cram. try to study in a well-lighted area, and in the same place every time. consistency helps you remember things. Also, whatever your snack food is (like M&Ms or peppermints or gum) if you snack on it while studying and then snack during the test too (mints & gum work best if you're in middle/high school and aren't allowed food in class) then something about the flavors helps remind your brain of the times you studied and brings back things you struggle remembering.

But it's always better to study every day when you get home so that you don't have to cram. Try explaining what you learned & how to do it or how it works to a friend/parent while studying. If you can explain it to someone else without using the textbook, you really know your stuff!

Well one thing that always made class a bit easier was making a study sheet of all the important stuff that we'd need to know for an upcoming test. Another thing that made class a bit easier was a game my teacher would always play with the class the day before an upcoming test or quiz. He'd play a review game using questions that would probably be used on that test. He'd break the class up into groups and each group would battle it out. One point for every correct answer. The team that won would get five extra points on the test. Maybe you should mention to your teacher that you have trouble remembering notes and suggest this game.

i dont know but i pretty much remember everything after the first time i see it and i only have to study a very little amount of time. many times i can just take the test with no studying at all and get an A.
i would just learn little sections of your notes at a time like learn the first 4 or 5 lines then move on to the next part and when you get through it review it all over

If you're talking about remembering what you read in a textbook, here you go: Skim through the chapter once, noting headlines of paragraphs and study questions at the end, then go back and read the entire chapter once. Take appropriate notes. Don't read it again unless you have to master some new vocabulary.

I find that once you understand a concept or idea, then it is easier to remember. This more readily applies to the hard sciences like math, physics, etc. If you study something and don't understand it-- then keep reading it and thinking about it until it all makes sense.

For long term retention, it is always better to understand than to memorize.

I try to use as many senses as I can. So I write notes and read out loud. This gets my hands, eyes, and ears exposed to the information.

Writing everything over and over again works for me.
