Build a flexible two-week revision map instead of cramming every subject into one day.
Map what matters
Write down the exam date, topics, formats and materials for every course. Mark which areas are unfamiliar and which have past-paper questions available. Start with high-priority weak areas instead of endlessly perfecting the topics you already know.
Spread practice across days
Use the first week to rotate through major topics, practising recall and questions after each learning block. Revisit topics over multiple days rather than attempting to finish each subject in one sitting.
In the second week, prioritize practice tests, correction of mistakes and short targeted reviews. Keep sleep, meals and realistic rest in the plan.
Review and adjust
After each session, write down one question you missed and place it in the next relevant block. If a day becomes unavailable, move the highest-priority task instead of compressing everything into the evening.
Try the technique once, then use the Tempo Study Loop: start, apply, check and decide what to do next.
