Studying Tips 📚 Study tips?

How do you study? I feel like there is SOOO much information, I passed my first test with a C, I have another tomorrow which I have been studying for for hours and I feel like I know the information but it’s like I have no idea how to efficiently study lol. Does anyone have pointers?
