Depends for what subjects. For instance, for biology I've made notes on each spec point using 3/4 sources (books,revision guides etc). Then I'm doing all the exam style question packs for each topic and then in the last month of may just knock out all the recent past papers as I would've already completed the old spec papers by the end of april. Use may also for learning mark schemes and examiners reports .
As for Chemistry, just do all the past papers past and present and anything I'm stuck on i'll go through with my teacher after Easter.

You put me to shame. You seem so organised. I just keep on jumping around topics.
Maths - Just past papers and exercises in the workbook. French - Past papers and writing essays, luckily I have been making sure I learn things properly as I go so I feel quite confident about it and it's the subject I'm revising the least for. Economics - Past multiple choice questions, writing up revision notes, working through the revision booklets we got given at college - I could probably do with doing some actual past paper data response questions but I hate the 25 mark questions so I've been putting that off Sociology - I have done pretty much nothing productive for sociology for the whole of the Easter holidays because I don't know what's the best way to go about revising for it, I'll probably end up making some summary sheets for different studies and statistics and definitions, but I've definitely been putting this off...

Are you doing past papers so. That you know where you are going wrong and then going over that topic ?

Which exam board are you doing for French? I'm doing AQA and the mark scheme for the essay is reeeally picky...or so my teacher says...how much grammar are you revising? I'm just going for vocab really. hah

That's pretty much my strategy. If I get a question wrong in maths I'll try and work out how to get to the correct answer without reading the working in the mark scheme. If I succeed, I put it down to silly error. If I still can't do it, I know that's a problem area for me. It's also a way of motivating yourself because (hopefully) if you're doing good revision you should notice your mark improving every time.

Past papers past papers past papers. I get them marked and go over the topics i got wrong for biology, maths and chemistry. For english i just write essays and waffle.
Depends for what subjects. For instance in Politics I tend to go for the more traditional nightly rota of crying myself to sleep. In History I tend to just stare blankly at a wall thinking about my dream university in despair. Sometimes, when I'm feeling hopeful for English, I open my book so as to lay my head on a slightly softer surface than the desk.
