The memory technique discussed in this article could help you improve your grades when writing exams. The technique is designed to empower the revision capabilities of an individual (aka you). So keep reading.

When writing exams you need to recall large amount of information right on time. It is possible to overuse your brain during the process so here's a technique to help you succeed. What you need to do is create what I like to call an "Information Cloud".

What is an Information Cloud?

For every particular subject/chapter/book you study you need to create a list of important points. This will be your info-map. This list can be enhanced and grow in size as time goes by and you study even more.

When studying for exams you usually need to read something twice or even more in order to understand and absorb the information. So when reading for the first time you can create a basic list outlining the most important things. By nature your brain will be ready to absorb more information easier the second time you read the information. Enhance your list and keep adding information to it. Make sure you take notes about all possible information contained in what you read so that it is available to you through the Information Cloud later.

After finishing your list you can create labels for every significant point and rewrite the list in an ascending/descending order placing the most important information on top of your list. It's better to have a numbered list because otherwise you may forget a label on a line. By writing numbers next to the labels your brain automatically associates the number with the specific label thus, you have better chances of remembering every information contained in your cloud.

After you're finished with all the writing it's time to create an image of your information cloud in your mind. Try to visualize the image of the paper in your mind. Imagine it full of information you've written with your hands. Imagine recalling all information from the cloud easily and effectively.

Recalling information from the cloud can then be as easy as running through a mnemonic in your mind. At the end you will be ready to dominate every subject. Always keep your Information Cloud handy and look at it often to keep the image in your mind alive and kicking.
