Multitasking kills focus ❌. Your brain isn’t doing two things at once — it’s switching back and forth, and that hurts your memory.

Low-stakes testing ✅ flips the script. Short, no-pressure quizzes turn testing into practice, boosting recall and lowering stress. That’s why multitasking is F-tier, and low-stakes testing is A-tier.
