Just assume, for the sake of argument that staying on top of your ordinary responsibilities consumes most of your entire day, e.g. you rarely have breaks or time to yourself. I think many of us have been there before.
You notice your grades are slipping and you want to improve them.
You know that not getting enough sleep can have serious effects on your levels of focus throughout the day. You make more mistakes this way. Caffeine can only get you so far.
However, not doing enough problems every day can cause you to be behind on your coursework. Or maybe not retain as much as you'd like. You don't fully understand new concepts unless you practice them repeatedly.
Both are well known and generally believed to be true. Which would you choose, and why?
(And none of those tricky "both" type of answers. These two agendas are mutually exclusive, for the most part.)
