Hi!
In 5 days I have verbal exam in Signals Theory where you have to write formulaes requested from you on a paper. There a A LOT of those formulaes and most of them I don't even understand. Professor usually doesn't even want understanding, he just wants you to write the formulaes down. But I do HAVE TO know in which chapter formulaes belong otherwise I wont be able to pull out correct formulae out of my mind when asked.
Now I would like some suggestions on how to learn as much meaningless math (or similar xD) formulaes as possible in the time given. If anyone has any special technique, bring it on :D
Example:

I was expecting a how-to thread on how to memorize formulas.
Anyway, my suggestion would be to look up songs that have the formulas part of it on youtube.
The second formula is far from meaningless, if you are in uni and think it is then switch to another career..

Flash cards. Do [b]not[/b] underestimate them!
Also, when possible, read the equation(and name) out loud while having it spoken to you. The more angles you stimulate your brain from, the more quickly you memorize and internalize information.
I usually memorize things better by learning what they mean. That way I'm actually just trying to memorize the story or reason behind something and memorizing that thing is just part of the process. But if you really can't understand it, tough luck, memorize it by punching your head
Luckily for me I can memorize formula's in one go and remember them, its horrible, I have to do further maths now :(
just try and figure out how they work. if you can understand the logic behind a formula then you should be able to recreate it, even if you don't remember its actual formatting.
Learn a little bit of it, copy it down from memory. Repeat for the same bit until there are no mistakes, and repeat again for good measure. Repeat till you have the whole formula memorized. Works for me.
