"Sleep for at least 7-8 hours before your exam so you can remember everything well"
This is something which we are told multiple times, but obviously due to the exam stress we are hardly able to sleep just before the paper is due.

So how does sleep help us in our memory storage and consolidation?
What is memory consolidation in the first place and how does our memory get converted from short term to long term?
Lastly why is memory such an important factor in movement in our daily life?
