I've got mine starting then end of may through June, been revising everyday so far, except Sundays just going over past papers and writing up lecture notes, I'm starting to feel a little more confident about them now actually.

My general advice would be do something everyday, doesn't have to be 6 hours of revision, just maybe 2 hours in the morning and the same in the afternoon (but on a different subject), take regular breaks so you don't lose concentration and eat and drink well so you're in a good mood and can absorb what you study.

I never used this particular technique, because I tend to remember things just fine from lectures, but I know many people who use this technique and find it perfect. It does have scientific research behind it, Google pomodoro technique. From my brief understanding, you study for a certain amount of time, each study session is a quarter of a tomato, between sessions you take a break, then once you amass a tomato you study a bit longer or something. I'm not entirely sure how it works, as I have never used it.

You can also use triple highlighting. Highlight what you don't know in yellow. Then you highlight important points emphasized during the lecture in blue. You finish up by highlighting answers to questions/learning objectives in pink. I used it one time, and it worked out pretty good. But you'll have to highlight in your textbook, or in your notes depending on the material addressed during a lecture.
