Friends,
people have been frequently asking us to share a technique to remember the
names in lists. So here is a simple technique to remember names in a story /
sentence format.
What this technique about?
Just
try to make a short story with the given names. In most of the times the names
resembles some objects, animals, name of your friends etc. So according to them
you can make a story. Of course, it may sound stupid... but the more stupid the
story is... the easier to remember it. Now let’s have a look at this technique
with an example. All of us know that recently the winners list of Nobel Prizes
for the year 2013 was declared. Let’s have a look at the winners list.
List of Nobel Prize Winners 2013

Now see. There are 13 names and 6
categories. Try to make up a sentence with them.

resolved so opcw banned chemicals in
