Study Skills Worksheet: Spaced Repetition

Exam preparation lesson 10: Spaced repetition · Set 163 · 40 questions

Study tip (Little and often, gaps growing): Review a topic 1, 3, 7 and 14 days after you learn it: review day = learning day + gap. Doubling gaps work too: 1, then 2, then 4, then 8 days.
