well when u study..Most of us will forget what we hav studied..but we will remember the topic..well itz a human psychology to forget good thing...but ofcourse we do hav a bad habit of remembering what ever that is bad..isn't it? so why don't we use tht in our studies..
For an ex: we r studying the features of windows.try to know itz bad features first...ie it provides less security than anyother OS..& one of itz good features :user friendly...so from next time onwards if somebody ask u abt windows...what automatically comes to ur mouth is ofcourse "windows is less secured"..!!!!

  We can remember a lot of information in areas of our interest.
  Contrarily, we have poor memory in areas, which we find boring.
  
  That is the secret. :))
  
  Human memory is incapable of storing knowledge, beyond a certain limit (which varies from person to person.)
  
  Out of the experiences of a person on any day,
  50% is forgotten the next day,
  50% of the balance forgotten the day after,
  and so on ...
  
  A student attending a teacher's class after one week, how much can he remember ?
  0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * ..... seven times
  = ???
  
  In important areas having impact on our livelihood, we need to strain our memory (unless we are gifted with high memory power) and develop certain methods for remembering, example
  
  associating unpleasant with another pleasant one,
  forming series and sequences,
  developing habit of solving puzzles,
  etc.
  
  Other readers can give more clues on how to remember things.
