How To Memorize Essay Examples

<p>After reading a book or certain historical information about a person or an event, how do you remember it forever, so that you have it stored in your brain when you do practice essays and on the real SAT essay? Whenever, I read a book (mostly classical ones and books that are good to use on the SAT), I always forget some parts of the story that sometime are crucial for me to be able to implement that example in the essay. For example, I forget a character's name, and therefore I have to make it up, or something ridiculous like that. </p>

<p>Is the remedy for this to write all of the information in a notebook, and continue to review it every so often, so that the examples stay fresh? Also, is writing notes of a book from Spark notes a good idea?</p>

<p>So what do you guys think I should do and/or what works for you?</p>

<p>Agreed. How do you guys do it? Bump~</p>

<p>Well I know that the graders can’t look up the information to verify your example… So I would guess you could stumble a little but still receive a good score if your example backs up whatever you wrote.</p>

<p>It’s like studying for the history tests or literature, you have to remember some things and usually I just remember…? :/</p>
