Option B: Keep thinking about it till the rest of the class. I can't stop thinking about that until I either remember or find it.

Option C: Write it down.

It's not like I am thinking about it to not forget what I wanted to remember. It's that it will keep bugging me until I remember.

I have no idea what you're trying to say.

Bugging you until you remember? You write it so that you can't forget and so it stops bugging you.

Bugging you because you need that info itch scratched right now? Aka instant gratification. Then you have to learn to not need instant gratification. Seriously, it's another skill.

Another skill is not caring if someone has a solution other than yours. It'd take half the time to write it down as it would just to look up the answer.

half the time to write it down

You're making my argument for me. Although I'd say much less than half, you already have pen and paper on your desk.
