Memory increasing techniques! Need to remeber about 120 case names and details!?

Question

Law exam in 2 months.
Case names and details need to be memorized but im struggling.
Any ideas?

Answer 1

Mnemonics. Put together the first letter of the names and 3 important details to make a 5 letter word. Then put these words into a story sentence, the more ridiculous the better eg JOHNO ate a GREEN LLAMA and blah blah.

This will help jog your memory of each case so you can remember them. Apart from that, explaining something to someone else is the best way to learn and remember something...so tell a study partner half, and have them tell you half.

Answer 2

Write out the details of each case on one side of an index card, with the case name on the other side. Once you have finished
with the 120 cards, you'll have a great study tool for memorizing both the details of the cases and the names associated with them.

Answer 3

Memorize the most famous ones slash the ones that changed the country most (Marbury v. Madison, Barron v. Baltimore, The Pentagon Papers Case, etc.) and read through the rest of them and hopefully you'll get it.

Answer 4

Repetition: Repeat out loud instead of just reading the cases. You also might want to record yourself citing the cases and play the tape every night before you go to bed. Let it play while you're sleeping so that the information can manifest itself in your subconscience. Good luck on your exam!

Answer 5

it particularly is not a situation. some human beings (me working example) can keep in mind names, faces, and numbers. individuals (my husband) can no longer do almost besides. yet he has such diverse different solid traits that make him what he's, that it's not proper. Few are indignant while he admits he would not keep in mind. each guy or woman has something unique to grant society and could in simple terms "circulate with the circulate."
