What are the best ways to cram or memorize any thing?
Yes this is not hard for some people and for other this is not easy. I am the second type. For me this is not hard to understand but some time situation arises when I need to cram those things like formulas, but this is hard for me. What kind of tips will you give me so that I could learn them easily?

acronym is always good if you want to memorize things easily. Visualizing is also helpful. if you want to memorize formulas, write them on the board and let your eyes work as a photocopying machine. You can also put little drawings next to certain areas of the formula to help you associate and remember. Another way is to sing. Using common rhymes, make a song about the things that you have to remember.

People find different methods of studying that will suit them. But I guess the best way is to prepare in advance.

I recommend getting a large piece of card and writing key notes on it. It is also fine to do this in a small notepad that you can keep in your pocket. Then these will rub off on to your memory hopefully. I tried writing a word and then making sentences to make it up for example:
S
M
A
R
T
This is the word smart. Good luck.

make an association with something that is more familiar to you or by the use of acronyms. another way is writing it, because you'll better remember it, when you have written it than just reading something.

The best way to memorize is repetition and also using acronyms for word problems. But, for cramming the formulas repetition is the best way to go create simple problems that you can solve to help you remember.
