Know yourself and work for yourself, some people need to start studying 3 nights before, some just the night before, (I myself get very early the same day and study before the test). The point is, we all learn differently, some of us need to go over thing 7 times, others just get it faster, but whatever you need to do to feel prepared for that exam do it.
Be well rested, some people think that studying the whole night before the exam is going to help them with it... actually for most cases its gonna harm their grade. To put it in very simplistic terms: lack of sleep= lack of alertness and concentration in the brain; lack of alertness and concentration in the brain= lack of good grade...
Don't procrastinate (in most cases), if you know your the kind of person that needs to study 3 days before the exam do it, if in the past studying just the day before hasn't worked for you why do you think this time will be different? well actually there's about a 1.3% possibility that this time is different, but you don't wanna take the risk, do you?
Finally and most importantly: Be confident, I mean you have been going to this class for months, of course you can respond 50 multiple choice questions, or elaborate a 2 paragraph argument. The worst thing you can do is to be nervous and stressed (and not only for exams, but thats a topic for another day), I know it's easier said that done, but try it, and you'll see the difference, do whatever you need to do to chill out. Whether is meditating or listening to your favorite justin bieber song (hey dude I don't judge). But from my personal experience being calm is the best thing you can do to be prepared for an exam.
So let's go tear up those exams sharks!! (I had to do this shark reference against my will to not get fired )
