Question with 11 notes
zaielle asked: thank you for your explanation :) i have a question. i need to remember a lot of formulas for all of the statistics courses i'm taking.(what i do now, is write them down like 40 times until they are in my muscle memory and i can use them the next day on the test, but this is becoming increasingly unmanageable, as the number of formulas is getting larger with each course). Is it possible to use the mind-palace for abstract stuff like this? i can't imagine what object to visualize irt formulas. <3
I think this calls for interconnecting.
Break down the formula into sections. I’ll do this with the formula for glucose, as it’s common and short: C6H12O6
C is obvious, as it makes most people think of the sea. So you could have a picture of the sea, or hear the sound of the sea in your room, or six shells which all sound like the sea when you take them to your ear.
H immediately makes me think of myself, as my name begins with H. So I’d be swimming in that picture, or I’d see a photo of myself in the room (perhaps the photo prompts the sound), or I’d see a copy of myself already in the room, sat with a shell to his ear. Perhaps there are two of each version of me, representing that 12 is a double of 6.
O immidately brings to mind Oxygen, which isn’t too helpful. So I push through that and think of the next thing, which is a mouth stretching wide. So I have a Rolling Stones poster with the infamous mouth logo next to the picture, or perhaps I’m opening my mouth in that photograph of myself, or I’m gasping in amazement at the sound of the sea coming from the shell.
I really hope that’s not too confusing and that it helps you in someway. Combine this with your usual thing the night before a test the first time you try it, just to ensure it’s a viable method as my formal mathematical study ended at school so I don’t know how accurate one can be with longer equasions.
Note: I used glucose because I have a great loathing for mathematical formuli. Sorry if this makes it redundant advice but I just can’t cope with formal maths.
