Know what your learning style is. If you're a visual learner, you might need to highlight your notes. If you're a verbal learner, you may need to make a song out of your notes. If you're a kinesthetic learner, you might need to act out your notes. Your learning style is a big part of studying success, because if you're not studying in a way that complements your learning style, the information won't sink in very well.
Make some flash cards if they will help you learn.
