Memory tip (Plan the reviews, not just the reading): Good: starts weeks early, mixes subjects each day, old topics come back, spare days for doubts, sleep time kept. Poor: starts the night before, one subject all week, no time for review, late nights every day. Revision days = days to the exam − learning days: 17 days, 5 chapters × 3 days = 15 → 2 days left for revision.
