Hi all, I’m new here and studying for a basic IT certification (CompTIA A+). I’m struggling to memorise this table:

I have a weak foundation in memory techniques even though I know about them. I don’t want to set up a memory palace at this point, basically I want to use what I can with minimal overhead. The idea I currently have now is:
- Memorise the order of the first column (the 802.11 wireless standards)
- For each 802.11 standard, I will memorise each row somehow as well
- In a nutshell, I will be memorising a nested linked list
Characters for step 1
A - Abe (from Abe’s Odyssey)
B - Mr Bean
G - Genos (from One Punch Man, the anime)
N - Nina (24)
C (forget the AC, I want to simplify it) - Chewbacca
X (forget the AX, I want to simplify it) - Professor X
I’ve formed a linked list in my brain for each character interacting with the other. This is the easy part, now what?
Possibilities:
- If I use pegs for 2.4 and 5 (how do I remember a period anyway? maybe I just simplify to just ‘2’), then won’t I be confused? There are multiple instances of 2.4 and 5, some are combined as well.
- Same question for columns 4 and 5
P.S I admit already have memorised some of it, but it’s rushed and it’s not worth me describing my approach here. I’ve had to rememorise it a couple of times using other images, so it’s kinda messed up in my brain. It’s a vague blob of images I can summon up, and takes more effort than I’d like. Posting here mainly to gather extra ideas in case someone has already done something similar.
