Use the specification points: I used this to navigate my revision sessions and like a checklist. I went through the subjects in chronological order and ticked them off as I progressed.

Pomodoro technique: I've noticed that when I revised for long hours with infrequent breaks caused me to burnout, causes mental fatigue and disrupts my revision as a whole. I implemented the pomodoro technique as a healthy way to revise without feeling burnt out- giving me breaks in between to rest and lets my brain refocus back to revision when it's time.
