Spaced Repetition System

What is Spaced Repetition?

Spaced repetition is a learning technique where you review information at increasing intervals over time. Instead of cramming everything in one session, you space out your reviews to fight the natural forgetting curve.

The Forgetting Curve

Hermann Ebbinghaus discovered that we forget roughly 70% of new information within 24 hours unless we actively review it. Spaced repetition directly combats this by scheduling reviews right before you're about to forget.

Typical Review Schedule

Day 1 — Learn new material

Day 2 — First review

Day 4 — Second review

Day 7 — Third review

Day 14 — Fourth review

Day 30 — Fifth review

Why It Works

Strengthens long-term memory — Each review reinforces the neural pathways

Efficient use of time — Only review what you're about to forget

Builds confidence — You know the material will stick

Reduces exam anxiety — You've reviewed consistently, not crammed

How to Implement Spaced Repetition

Step 1: Create Your Study Cards

Break your subjects into individual concepts or questions.

Step 2: Schedule Your Reviews

Use a calendar or app to track when each topic needs to be reviewed.

Step 3: Grade Your Recall

After each review, rate how well you remembered. Easy items get pushed further out; hard items come back sooner.

Step 4: Stay Consistent

The system only works if you follow your review schedule daily.
