You have to find what works for you, but active revision is the best- flashcards or past papers or explaining it to other people or anything which means you’re actively doing something, not just reading

Everybody is different so you need to test a few different ways to see what worked for you. I liked to write down the different modules/subject areas and make a calendar of what i was going to revise when. I have always found reading and then writing out what i am learning helps me process it. I also find speaking out loud really helpful. So trying to explain the topic you;re revising either to yourself out loud or to a friend/parent.

Like previous answers it is what best works for you. I used to revise listening to music and try and summarise my notes, getting key points down. Past exam papers and practice works as well. Though sometimes mixing it up helps as well. I did used to use Bitesize, so audio revision can help as well. It really depends on how you learn best.

There is no hard and fast rule for revision. My own approach as a student was little and often generally doing only an hour a night but doing starting my revision at the start of the academic year not a few weeks before the exams. I also never revised on the night before an examination as all you remember will be a few bits and pieces from that material taken from your short-term memory.
I also rarely tried to remember equations. Rather I’d try to remember the origins and derivation of equations and work them out during the exam if I needed them.
