Cramming for an exam produces as much long-term retention as spreading study sessions over time.

INSUFFICIENT LEANING

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that Cramming for an exam produces as much long-term retention as spreading study sessions over time?

Unclear. The placed sources only partially address the claim: one study finds a single practice session's retention fades while multiple spaced sessions yield stable retention, and a medical-student survey links cramming to worse exam scores. None directly compares cramming with spaced study on long-term retention.
