Learn from others The best thing my Mum ever did for me was make me set up a revision timetable. I wrote out every topic within every subject I needed to revise then guesstimated how many sessions of 50 minutes I would need to revise that topic. I then put this into a timetable so when it came down to revising I wouldn’t spend ages just flicking through any book finding something to revise but would know exactly what area I was to cover in that time period. 

Half term- what can you achieve? Day am pm eve Mon Tues Weds Thurs Fri Sat sun

How much time over half term? Each day= 2 X 2.5 hours 9- 11.30 1- 3.30 Minimum of 35 hours Over 10 hours per subject

Learn from others Break down your subject into ordered sections. Breaking down the exam into lots of little sections makes revision less daunting, and you'll know exactly where you stand in terms of how much you've done. For my exams I broke down a module into 20 sections or topics. It meant it didn't seem like much of a chore to start the next one, as they didn't last long. Then, before I knew it, I'd whizzed through the module without it being much work.
