Sleep and studying: why an all-nighter is a poor plan
Sleep supports attention and memory, so cutting it to add last-minute hours can make study less effective. When time is short, use a focused review and protect a reasonable bedtime.
A simple way to try it
- Choose the few topics most worth reviewing.
- Use recall questions instead of rereading everything.
- Set a stopping time that leaves room for sleep.
