- godelski 8y agoI say this more as "review again within 24 hrs but not right after class". You need to give yourself some time for your mind to process it and store it. I'd say at least 4 hrs, but preferably before 18. The method I put forward (not my invention) is based on the idea that you lose information over time, but each time you recall it you lose it more slowly. So if you recall it a bunch of times then by the time you lose it you'll be dead (or don't need it). As far as what I think you're talking about, I personally have noticed an inverse effect when studying RIGHT before bed. I attribute this to me being tired and thus not engaged. I think engagement is more important than dreaming about the subject (if you are engaged, you probably will dream about it). I do dream A LOT, but I don't typically dream about things I study. Typically.
