If so, how do you do it?

Answer:

No one is really sure how we store memories in our brains, but we do know that it is definitely something structural. Most likely the shaping of neural pathways done by glial cells. The more these pathways are reinforced the stronger they become thus the "use it or lose it" saying.

Using tools like pneumonic devices, or simply listening to the same type of music when studying and before a test, can help recalling facts. Ginko helps support circulation to the brain and thus promotes its function. The best way to help improve memory is sleep. The REM stage of sleep is when our brain organizes memories. This is probably why during the REM stage we have longer more narrative dreams.

Yes, do a course on it, or teach yourself to make associations, as vivid and outrageous or ridiculous as you can, so they will stick in your mind. Make notes, rewrite in different words later, review in 1 week, 1 month, several months. Make a tape recording and replay it often, and as you drift off to sleep. Really want to remember very much!
