I am a big fan of cramming. I always win that way. Cramming is the source of all my knowledge.

I feel the complete opposite of you.

I hate cramming, I get stressed and I can't think.

What I meant by cramming is that I study heaps before exam. On normal school days, I try to understand everything, that way I don't need tio come home and study. Then during my cramming period, I memorise the notes that I make at school and remind myself of all the knowledge I absorbed earlier.

I don't need to make notes because my school notes are basically my whole notes. I only do homework and maths.

Nope.

I call it cramming but it's different from that. It is the way in which I remind myself of the knowledge that I have already understood.

I already know all the contents. They are all stored in my brain. It is through cramming that I reassure myself that I know this and that.

And no, I don't forget them before the exam.

Yeah, that's what I do, so I get what you mean... I do it because I'm lazy: understand everything in school, so don't need to study after school; teachers don't mark/check homework, so don't need to do homework after school = splawesomeness for me, because I have heaps of free time :D

I have the most awesome short-term memory too, which is awesome for me, because I can look over work the night before the exam and still remember it the next day... (I'm screwed when we have to remember it later on in the year, but whatever :D)

I should really study, and I have a study timetable that is actually really lenient in the amount of spare time I have, yet somehow I never get around to studying. So study time is around 1 hour every day (including weekends.)

Therefore cramming is the only thing I've ever done... so I can't comment...

it scares me because I feel unprepared.

It's sort of like that feeling you get when you're about to sit an English exam - unprepared and nervous.
