Cramming Is a Scam (and We’ve Got Receipts)
WSSU Main Events
Let’s be real: cramming at 2AM with three tabs open and vibes only is not the move. In this workshop, we’re busting the myth that last-minute chaos = productivity. Learn science-backed study strategies that actually work -- spaced practice, active recall, and a little something we like to call “not panicking.” You’ll leave with a plan, some peace of mind, and proof that smarter studying > cramming every time.
