  1. cramming

    Cramming refers to the practice of studying or learning large amounts of information in a short span of time, typically just before an exam or a deadline. It involves intense and concentrated studying with the aim of quickly acquiring knowledge or understanding of a subject. Cramming is often associated with memorization-based learning methods and is commonly used as a last-minute strategy to prepare for tests, but it may have limited long-term retention benefits compared to more spaced-out studying techniques.

It is often done by students in preparation for upcoming exams, especially at the last minute. Cramming is often discouraged by educators because the hurried coverage of material tends to result in poor long-term retention of material, a phenomenon often referred to as spacing effect.
