Something to cram for (4)

I believe the answer is:

test

(Other definitions for test that I've seen before include "Dip one's toe in" , "Trial - international game" , "Examine to play international cricket match" , "Critical examination or trial of qualities or abilities" , "Trial; exam" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.com, the New York Times, the USA Today and the Universal.
