While the study interface is the same, cramming is very different from your normal daily study sessions. Here are the key differences:
| SRS (Spaced Repetition) |
Cramming | ||
| When should I use? | Every day | Only when required | |
| What will I study in a single study session? | Words from your entire vocabulary and every Focus you have queued | Words from a single Focus only | |
| What is the priority of content I will see? | 1. Weak memories 2. New words |
1. Weak memories 2. New words 3. Strong memories (sorted: weakest first) |
We recommend studying every day with spaced repetition, and using cramming only when you need to double-down on specific knowledge immediately prior to class or tutor time (to enable the highest quality practice possible) or in the days/hours leading up to an examination.
