importance of each step varies depending on major or subject.

Make a powerpoint summary, memorize every slide.
Only put enough words in the slides to make sure you will know what to write on the exam. Prioritize keywords.
Easier than memorizing shit directly from a textbook because textbooks contain stuff that won't be on the exam, which will distract you from memorizing if you look at even a single word on the paragraph.

Also, take Adderall.
