Re sample test... If your teacher has been teaching the subject for a few years.. get a copy of all the test s/he gave in the past, going back 5 years or more. It will give you an idea of what questions the teacher consistently asks. How much the test varies from year to year etc. What type of questions the teacher prefers answered in essay form and what type the teacher prefers to ask true or false on. It will provide excellent clues what areas you need to concentrate on because teacher like all human prefer to loop on areas they are expert on.

Search study resources on the forum for a mind map sites that explains mind mapping visually.

The activation stage would tell you how much more you need to do on the book. If you know the book then you're done this can be with one pass or 33 passes depending on number of pages and how much ground the book covers.
