Also, don't be afraid to go back to basics!
Look at what the question asks for then look at the information given, and how this fits together. (may it be a basic equation or rearrangement) Basics along with a change in perspective or a fresh start always helps.
For maths, i find it very easy to see complicated integrals and think 'ooh, obviously parts' When there is a clear substitution to put in, so i force myself instead to go back to basics and look at the integrals constituents before i make a judgement.
