Nice book TBB!

I like it! If you flesh it out a bit more and then add a cover or two.

Good idea, TheBritishBloke! I haven't taken the time to read it yet but one thing that usually works is trying to forget what you've learned. In the same way that you can't help but think of an elephant when asked to think of an elephant, I can't help but remember a series of numbers or something when I'm trying to get myself to forget them.

True, although I'd rather not forget say, all of A-Level Maths and have to re-learn it during the exam period :wink:

I get what you mean though.

Great!

Have you thought of actually selling it for say a few quid if you flesh it out a bit more. I could market it for you :h:

or if you want to do it on your own..... try www.lulu.com

But like I said.... I could market it for you :h:

Well, I've sold eBooks in the past and they haven't really sold.. And then as soon as I made them free, I got boat loads of good comments, reviews and downloads etc.

I'd rather just leave it free, at least for the time being; unless you have some super plan up your sleeve :wink:

Figured I'd bump this back up.

EDIT: I'm also currently planning to have this moved back to Study Help, by removing the link and just putting the tips in a post along with a PDF.

Saying that you can only use mind maps for keyword and definitions??? After reading a book by the bbc i'm using mind maps for connecting the dots for my maths degree. Its really helped on my memory. Mind maps are a more creative and proactive form of revision if you know the rules. http://www.mind-mapping.org/mindmapping-learning-study-memory/rules-of-mindmapping.html Clearly i broke the one word per line rule at times though. When i revise now i do a mind map first without looking at notes in colour, then i annotate my mind map in black ink with all the theorems, results, examples. I remember almost all of the stuff i revise now.
