I think your problem is you do things the way the education system has brainwashed you to do things: Memorize methods to pass tests and get passing grades, as opposed to really understanding the material. Don't worry about memorizing stuff. You don't need to memorize formulas and equations. What you DO need is to understand the underlying ideas of what's going on and why.
If a formula is so important you need to memorize it, you'll be using it often enough that you'll memorize it without even trying to. For the rest, you can just reference a formula sheet whenever you need it.
Dive into offshoots and things like that. As in, if you're reading some proof and something intrigues you and isn't covered thoroughly enough, think about it. Ponder it. Move around numbers to see how exactly it works. Look it up online. Delve into stuff.
>>12336810>speedDon't worry about speed, focus on understanding the stuff. It's pointless to go the fast route. The fast route will teach you how to pass tests in school. It will NOT teach you how and why the math actually works. And if you want to UNDERSTAND math, you need to understand how and why it works.
