How do I find the revision method that works for me?

Before figuring out the revision technique that suited me, I explored a range of different methods for memorizing. There are mind-maps, flash-cards, writing things out and covering them, and so many more. Each individual is different and you have to figure out what works through trial and error. I personally like to combine one or two revision methods to ensure that what I've got sticks in my brain. For a lot of people, reading notes aloud helps as the spoken word is more memorable than a passing thought. For other people, they find that visual methods such as mind-maps and diagrams work better. Everybody has a different learning process and what works for one person may not be ideal for another. If one method isn't right for you, that's okay! There'll be another that is better suited. What I would recommend is first trying to figure out what kind of learner you are (visual/aural/verbal/physical) and then working through a list of different techniques until you find the one that helps you remember your subject matter.
