    Maths - just do exam papers over and over again. Correct them using your notes and if possible, examinations.ie.

    Same goes for Accounting, if you do that.

    you'll be doing very well to get 485 with only 5 honours subjects

    Find out what kind of learner you are and use study methods suitable to that (like mind maps, key words, recording yourself, repetition, writing out etc.)

    Make a study plan. Not a gel pen one with everything coloured in neatly and that takes you an hour to do, just make a list of everything you want to achieve in a week in a subject and aim to get it done by every Sunday. You could assign subjects to each day but I find it easier to just do whatever I'm in the mood for that particular day.

    Get enough sleep, it's next to impossible to study without sufficient sleep and you won't be efficient or able to retain information.

    Exam papers exam papers exam papers.
