For that sort of thing I used to write an index card of each topic, so all the notes would be on one object. I have a visual memory, so if I look at a card with a picture, the image of the whole thing tends to stick. It's sort of the same idea as a mini-poster.
Also writing it out, thinking about designing the card, all that helps fix the information in your head more than just re-reading the same page out of a book. For me anyway.
I hope this helps?

Dear Sarah,
I have found, the best way to prepare for exams in verbally based subjects, e.g., history, biology, is to prepare comprehensive, well structured, succinct notes. Today, the task is greatly aided by word processing software. It is relatively easy to expand, and revise. Once the notes are complete, you are more or less done.
Studying this way, is far more effective, than reading the same material over and over, or engaging in memorizing. You also, will have fewer occasions of your mind wandering, or being overcome with boredom.
The best way, to prepare for exams in mathematically based subjects, e.g., physics, is to solve problems. Do every problem in the relevant chapters, do problems out of other texts or workbooks. I have often used Shaum's Outline Series, for additional problems. This approach is very effective, and less boring than starring at solved problems.
