For cramming, try the following tips,
1. Things that are to be memorized, do them either before sleep or early in the morning, because if one sleeps just after memorizing something it helps in retention. Likewise the mind is fresh in early morning that's why it takes lesser time to memorize things in these hours.
2. Make a separate profile for those things which need cramming like quotations, facts and figures etc. keep it separate and have look at it time and again.
3. Use as many learning skills as possible if you want to retain things effectively i.e. first read it silently and attentively (
reading skill), memorize, read it aloud (
speaking and listening skill), recall (
visualize), and write it down (
writing skill)
4. Revise as often as possible.
These are tactics which work best for me as I am also poor at cramming. I hope these will work.
