Cramming before exams doesn’t work. Your brain needs time to process and store information. That’s where the Spacing Effect shines!

Here’s the trick: Space out your study sessions over days or weeks. Revisit topics multiple times instead of one long session.

Pinterest

For example, study math today, review it two days later, then again next week. The gaps help solidify your memory.

Why does it work? Each review strengthens your brain's neural pathways, making it easier to recall information later.

Use flashcards, apps, or a planner to schedule your spaced reviews. Consistency beats cramming every time!
