Hello friends, since you don’t know anything about me, today I would like to tell you something about me..
I graduated from high school (USSR) without being an excellent student - I was an average student..
When I graduated from school, I was waiting with horror for the entrance exams to the Institute... (If I would fail I have to go to army for 2 years as everyone else)....
I submitted documents and found out that there were 18 people for each place, after other applicants found out about such competition - many took away applications and it turned out 12 people per place - it’s still a very, very higher competition.. I understood that I couldn’t pass.. I was in despair, I went to the library and there I found a book on how to develop memory using mnemonics.. I was reading this book.. I literally studied around the clock and did all the exercises conscientiously.. In the end, I did not pass the competition for free education (I had only 30 days to prepare, which I mostly spent on mnemonics, what an irony!), - the company paid for my education.. But the knowledge I gained from that book was more useful to me than anything before in my life.
I became such an enthusiast of mnemonics that already in my second year in the Institute I began to teach elective courses in memory development at my Institute..
Usually I recruited students very simply - by walking into the classroom in the middle of the class and asking for 5 minutes.. After which I asked students to give me various random numbers that I wrote down on the backboard with a chalk - when there were about a hundred of them. I would put chalk on the table, turned to the audience and began to repeat the numbers written on the board - first in the order in which they were given to me and then in the reverse order - and then I said the numbers from any place chosen by the students.
I didn’t do anything else - half the audience immediately signed up for my course.
So what am I talking about? Today I made a video where I decided to share with you one of these techniques - which can help you a lot both on exams and just in life..
