Mnemonics are memory devices that help learners recall larger pieces of information, especially in the form of lists like characteristics, steps, stages, parts, etc.

A variant is the 7-3-2-1 study method where you learn on day 1 and rehearse on days 2, 3, and 7. The 7-3-2-1 method is a good starting point. But be sure to always tailor rehearsal to your learning process. If you notice that you fail most questions of your own self-tests, you waited too long to rehearse.

In simplest terms, you revise your initial set of notes on day one, take a second look on day two and day three, then revisit them on day five and day seven. Each time you revise, you should identify and expand upon key facts that you need to remember.

To study effectively remember the 3Rs: reading or looking at charts, maps, web sites, etc; recording or taking notes to help you remember what you have read; and reviewing, or going over your notes so you will remember the information you have learned.

Regular exercise boosts the growth of brain cells and the production of neurotransmitters, enhancing memory. A mix of aerobic (cardio) and strength exercises is best. If you're not getting enough sleep, you might be harming your cognition and memory. Aim for seven to nine hours each night.

Songs and rhymes are very effective mnemonic devices. Most young children are taught to remember the entire alphabet — 26 random letters in a row — by reciting it in a simple rhyming tune. Songs and rhymes work for adults as well. Just think of how easily you sing along when an old song comes on the radio.
