SOHCAHTOA, counting 9 fingers, (a + b)(a - b), and all that jazz. When it comes to memorizing words and formulas, how do you keep them in your head?
For example, if I wanna know what direction I'm going in. (North South East West) I'll always start from the top and go clockwise saying: Never Ever Smoke Weed. What are some of your methods to short cuts and such? |

Acronyms. And phrases- like "kings play chess on fine gold sets" for classification. (Kingdom, phyla, class, order, family, genus, species.) If it's something like Chinese characters, I try to find pictures inside them; like think, oh hey, that radical looks like a person, hence, it means person! If I can't find anything, I find writing it and reading it over and over again helps.
