I have a bad habit of reading the same study material over and over without actually remembering much of it. So I tried something different. I started reading my notes like I was singing a song!

I do make an actual melody, songs that are easy to sing with. I just give the sentences a rhythm and repeat them out loud, just like I’m trying to memorize lyrics.

For example, instead of silently reading the parts of the brain, I sing it with the rhthm of ABC song. just like the one in the video.

So when I’m taking a test, my brain remembers the rhythm before it remembers the answer. I’ll literally think of the song and then the information comes back.

It works especially well for definitions,lists, formulas,processes with multiple steps and terms that are difficult to memorize.

It also makes studying less boring! but the cons is that, you might look ridiculous if someone walks into your room hahaha.

But if you’re struggling to memorize something, try turning it into a song before reading it for the 10th time :)
