Here are some tips for preparing for an exam in less time:
- Create a study schedule: Use a planner or digital calendar to schedule study sessions and prioritize tasks. Start by working backwards from the exam date to set aside enough time for each subject.
- Study in shorter sessions: Shorter, more intense study sessions can help your brain process information better.

- Organize your study materials: Make sure your study materials are organized so you can easily find what you need when you need it.
- Form a study group: Get together with a friend or group of people from your class to review notes and discuss concepts you think will be covered on the test.
- Prioritize topics: Prioritize topics by importance.
- Eliminate distractions: Try to eliminate distractions while studying.
- Use mind mapping: Mind mapping can help you understand concepts better.
