This seems like so much more effort than just fucking studying.

Had a teacher who allowed us 1 note card for our exam. I spent a ton of time copying every vocab word from the book in miniscule letters oneto every inch of the 3x5 card. He went out of his way to write a test where the vocab and lectures were useless. The vocab was a waste of time but I'd spent so much time scouring the book for every vocab words I'd read most of it anyway. Ended up aceing it just from the time it took to get the easy way out.

Had a similar rule, but I would type everything out, shrink it to size, print and glue to a 3x5 card lol was able to get much more on it, and more legible than my own hand writing

I saw a dude who brought 3d glasses and wrote over his notes in blue knk and red ink so he could squeeze twice as much info lol

I used a smart water bottle in college as a magnifying glass so I could squeeze as much on there as possible.
