Start multiplying for your rev matches. Example, you drive a v6 in fifth gear and it's 1.0, you want to drop to 2nd? multiply your current RPMs by roughly 2.5, so if you are going in 5th at 2k, then you want 2nd at 4.5k

I enjoy math, once you learn your ratios and can multiply quickly in your head you will be fine... or just use rough estimates
You just turned driving into work!
I like math, but not while I'm driving. OK, sometimes I will try to compute how many more miles I can go on a tank or who much longer a trip is... but not during gearshifts.
