so i'm sitting here trying to study for my history final and when i read and read and try to understand the info, it doesn't stick whatsoever. i've always had this issue with history, and no matter how hard i attempt to remember the info, it doesn't seem to stay in my brain for very long.

do any of you have techniques (especially for history) on how to make the information stay?
i'm so frustrated right now and i need to do well on this final or else my history grade is in the shitter.
