I'm finished school now, but here was my method when I was in university: Study what you covered that day in all your classes at the end of the day some time. Do this every day. At the end of the week, study what you covered the entire week in all your classes. Do this every week. At the end of the month, study what you covered the entire last month in all your classes. Do this every month.
This method worked wonders for me and I found that come midterms and finals, I was breezing through material when studying because I was re-reading through stuff I've looked over already. Stuff was in my long-term memory already by then and I didn't find myself studying for hours and days on end trying to soak up an entire year's worth of material for the final exam.
Try it out. Sounds like a lot of work, but it actually isn't 'cause you're slicing things up into smaller chunks.
