We’ve all been there. It’s the night before a test and through some combination of partying too hard, sleeping too late and just, ya know, taking other classes, you’re nowhere near prepared. Time for that most time-honored of college traditions (the kind that doesn’t involve keg stands and togas): the cram session.

As part of the school wanting you to become one of these “well-rounded people” they’re so keen on producing, they pretty much force you [...]
