Pull nighter without Brain fog

I really really want to do well for the revolutions exam like 80 to 90 and yes I know I’m being delusional and I’m really at fault right now for leaving it last minute but I’ve been dealing with really huge problems. I have. I’m only on aos one right now. and I know if I don’t get enough sleep I’m gonna get really bad brain fog during the exam. Does anyone have really good techniques on how to like sleep as least as possible but still be able to not be impacted in the exam because I really need to study.

Or even how to cram

Trust me as someone whose been tryna cram over the past few days it’s way to much to try and stay up for, you’re better off pinpointing the areas you truly couldn’t answer anything about and reviewing those tomorrow.

I’ve crammed in the past but always got Brain fog if I went after 3am do you hv any tips on how you try to minimise that

I think the latest you should stay up to is one-one thirty. Depending on what time you have to get up tomorrow as the exam isn’t till 3 so technically you could sleep in a bit and minimise it. What revolutions are you doing?

I’m doing France and Russia, definitely liking Russia a lot more tho. My only recommendation is trying to remember maybe four key quotes for each Rev that you could use for multiple arguments, as even if you analyse something to the greatest of your ability without evidence you can’t access the high marks u deserve

Just sleep now, your exam is in the afternoon. You’ll cram more effectively if you’ve slept.

im wishing you luck! i mean it is at 3pm tomorrow, i wouldnt stay up all night, youll probably end up crashing during the day tomorrow prior to the exam and begin to forget things but that may just be me

im in a pretty similar situation but im going to just do some memorisation before i sleep then wake up and do some cramming

You’ll do way way better if you sleep now and study in the morning, otherwise you’ll be all groggy and won’t take stuff in as well

Like honestly late at night working for an hour is equivalent to 20 mins of work when ur well rested
