Personally I'm trialling reading out my notes then listening to them as I go to sleep. Sounds crazy but seems to be working a little.

Thats what I done for my finals and it worked a treat its amazing how much you actually learn and remember.

I used to set myself questions on the stuff i would listen to the night before.
I also set questions on stuff that i would study for two hours and go back to it later
Study timetable used to be Previous nights questions, X study for 2 hours (reading writing and setting questions) break then Y study for 2 hours, questions for X subject then break. Normally then questions for Y study after break. then record that nights notes.

When I study, or try to study, I write down everything on that particular topic (e.g. assault; I'm a law student) on one side of A4. Winston Churchill never looked at anything unless it was on one side of paper; if it's good enough for him, it's good enough for me
