    Memorizing
    I'm Not a good memorizer, it takes me a really long time to memorize things from school (Homework). I need some ways to memorize stuff,I want an easy way so I won't forget them or mix them up with other things. Thanks any ideas will help.

    Make flashcards for yourself out of 3x5 cards. Put the question on one side and the answer on the other. Go through them every day, several times a day.

    And use colors! Colors will help you remember better, especially if you are a kinesthetic learner.

    Good advice so far. Keep in mind that your instructors do not want you to simply memorize facts. You need to be able to apply them to real life situations so try to "picture" a process in your mind's eye.

    It's easy to remember things if you try picturing them and taking good notes in class. Review notes after school and before tests.

    Also remember that some things are easier to remember if you try practice problems. This is key for math, chemistry, and physics problems and is probably the best way to do well in these subjects.
