it stays for a few hours. Then it disappears.
That is the reason you forget everything before the exam.

You just need to review the material multiple times over multiple days.
But cramming is not the real mistake.
The real mistake is not studying early enough, so cramming becomes your only option.
If you study a little every day by using spaced technique for two weeks before the exam.
