How Spaced Repetition Works
Spaced repetition is a learning technique backed by over 100 years of cognitive science research (starting with Hermann Ebbinghaus's forgetting curve in 1885). Instead of cramming, the system schedules reviews at optimal intervals:
Stage 1: Review after 10 minutes. Stage 2: Review after 1 day. Stage 3: Review after 3 days. Stage 4: Review after 7 days. Stage 5: Review after 16 days. Stage 6: Review after 35 days — Mastered!
Questions answered incorrectly are reset to an earlier stage, ensuring you re-learn forgotten material. This approach can reduce study time by up to 50% compared to traditional methods while achieving better long-term retention.
