Making notes come handy for last-minute revision.

Shift between subject categories: There can be two types of subjects, basically– one, where you need to learn a lot of things such as biology and second, where you need to use your calculation power such as math and physics.

Give mock tests: If you practice mock tests every day, it will help you the way you have never imagined. First, you will come to know your knowledge level and can prepare accordingly. Second, you will learn about time management. Third, it will help you see where you stand in terms of competition with respect to others.
