Practice makes a Man Perfect
But how exactly should you practice?? This is a million-dollar question.
Are you tired of forgetting hard-learned concepts and theories? The answer lies in the power of revision.
The Importance of Revision
Revision is a form of deliberate practice, and it's one of the most crucial parts of your studies and preparation. It can help you retain information for the long term.
How to Make Your Mind Remember for Eternity
This method is backed by science and proven by research. You can remember anything—even in your sleep—by following this revision strategy called spaced repetition:
1st Revision: Right after learning
2nd Revision: After 20-30 minutes
3rd Revision: After 1 day (24 hours)
4th Revision: After 2-3 weeks (before a month)
5th Revision: After 2-3 months

I understand if you're wondering, "How on earth will I track this for every day for each concept?" ??
