I’ve been meaning to make this post for a while but I’m only getting around to it now because of the Power of Wanting to Procrastinate On Something Else.

You may be familiar with Ebbinghaus’s research on forgetting. Specifically, a graph that looks like this:

[Graph Source]

The TL;DR is that the more times you review something, the more you retain long-term. That’s why cramming may get you through a test, but you’re going to forget everything by the next semester.

So what exactly am I posting about? Well, I wanted to offer you my system for hijacking my memory systems to make sure I retain things with absolute minimum effort expended. I use this chart for all my classes (that I care about):

This is the ONLY reason I got an A in Statistical Methods II, considering I had forgotten everything from Methods I by the time I took it. Basically, just write down the section/concept/chunk of information and the date you first learned it. Then write down the next day’s date, then the date three days out from when you first learned it, then six days out from when you first learned it. I usually also pick a day before the exam/final to review each section.

As I go through the semester I check if I need to review something on a given day and then mark it off with a highlighter once I’m done. I try for maximum efficiency, usually by reading the textbook one day before the lecture (or one day after the lecture) then either doing the homework or just skimming back through my notes on day three. If I really, really, really need to understand something and I’m having trouble (like every single stats class ever) then I’ll re-write my notes on day 6 and combine the textbook + lecture notes.

It’s the lowest possible effort, because you don’t need to do anything fancy to review. Just spread things out as much as you can to take advantage of how your brain consolidates memories. Oh, and sleep. PLEASE SLEEP. You NEED sleep to retain information. I cannot stress that enough.

favorite thing ever is knowing a mutual is REALLY feeling some strong emotions for a certain piece of media because they’re reblogging like 50 posts in a row about it with literally zero tags or comments……… literally just showing me the inside of their brain………. nothing makes me feel so connected to a person
