Spaced Repetition: Science Based Revision
Spaced repetition is a study technique where you review information at increasing intervals. Instead of cramming, you reinforce your memory just before it starts to fade.
Why It Works:
- Based on the forgetting curve: memories naturally fade unless you revisit them.
- By reviewing at the right times, you make your memory stronger and more durable.
Typical Spacing Pattern:
- Initial learning – first exposure to the material
- Review after 1 day
- Review after 3–4 days
- Review after 1 week
- Review after 2–4 weeks
- Review after 2 months
There are many tools you can find online to help track this.
The Advantage Over Cramming:
Cramming may help you pass a test today, but spaced repetition ensures you remember the material long-term. It strengthens your memory at the exact moments it’s most likely to fade.
