Time Management
You have limited time for a quick yet complete revision, so you must make perfect use of it. Spend time on topics that need improvement while avoiding paying unnecessary attention to the concepts that you have already completed or mastered. Logically, by giving more time to revising your strong areas, you will minimize the time to be given to topics you feel you are weak in and need quick improvement in.
To avoid wasting time, you should always move on quickly with the deadline in mind. The main purpose of a revision strategy is to implement time management to eliminate time wastage. Therefore, you need to quickly decide the topics that need your maximum attention and the topics or areas you only need to practice swiftly.
