Visual aids can be really helpful when revising. At the start of a topic, challenge yourself to write down everything you already know about a topic - and then highlight where the gaps lie. Closer to the exam, condense your revision notes into one-page diagrams. Getting your ideas down in this brief format can then help you to quickly recall everything you need to know during exam. Explain your answers to others. Parents and little brothers and sisters don't have to be annoying around exam time! Use them to your adventage. Explain an answer to a question to them. That will help you to get it clear in your head, and also to highlight any areas where you need more work.
