AS Frankenstein/Eng Lit help?!?

ok...
Well, Im reading Frankenstein for AS English Literature at the moment, but our teacher does so much analysis (like for every sentence) that im finding it really hard to consolidate and just revise/recap from... how did you guys revise for the novels part of the English Literature exam?

Any help would be greatly appreciated...

Read through for themes, key quotations that support said themes, historical/literary context.

Having not studied Frankenstein for several years I'm not 100% sure what they are in that case (other than "The Modern Prometheus" thing) but I'm sure you can find them.

That's all I can think of offhand.

so for my revision notes, should i clump together quotes based around themes?
Yes, the quotations you have should support your themes - in fact, that's what your themes should be derived from, so themes are based around quotations, rather than the other way around.
