Check out this test.
This test displays the 19th century research of Ebbinghaus’ - a pioneer in the field of human memory.
The test helps show how you process and remember things through the method of spacing. I personally know that I remember something by being exposed to it at 3 different times vs. just once or consecutively back-to-back.
This test begins being showing you individual words. As each word appears on the screen, you should read it to yourself - warning, this will take a few minutes! You will be asked to do a series of basic arithmetic problems after the last word in the list has been displayed. Once you've completed the arithmetic problems, you will be asked to type out as many of the words from the word list as you can possibly remember.
This concludes the test. A results page will display the percentage of words that you recalled from the list and will explain your memorization status.
How do you memorize things?... Take the test and find out!
