I am Mahnoor, and the term sleep is foreign to me.
(Catchy introduction, I know)
Why, you may ask?

Chai and blue light keeping me awake.
Just to hear:
Did you cheat?
Where did you order a new brain from?
Amazon?
Just tell me what you did!!
These are all responses I got, when I passed all the toughest exams with close to excellent marks.
From professors to students.
Even my parent's eyeballs came out of their sockets.

The top 3 that worked miracles for my exams.

Act like the teacher. If you can teach it, you understand it.
What you cannot teach, because you don't understand it yourself, is a knowledge gap and should be given the most attention when you revise for the exam.

Obviously, not to cheat or do your homework, that would be a foolish thing to do.
However, summarizing YouTube videos, turning notes into practice problems and creating quizzes. These are all very effective ways of actively recalling lectures and concepts.
3. Understanding over memorizing
It works for almost everything. Emphasis on the almost!
You see, any physics formula or biology concept can be understood instead of memorized.
As for history and geography, I recommend using memory hooks to memorize countless dates and countries.
