Academic Bulimia

The act of cramming a large amount of information into memory over a short period of time and then regurgitating the memorized information onto a test. Just as the bulimic retains very few nutrients from the food he or she purges, shortly after the exam an academic bulimic retains very little memory of the regurgitated information.

Academic Bulimia is a form of Bulimia. Instead of binging and purging food, the Academic Bulimic binges and purges information.
