Writing practice and i don't mean time management. By writing practice, I mean, no matter how well you know your content, if you can't put it in words appropriately then you won't get your grades.
Now, it's hard to remember every single thing so here's a technique...
What? When? Who? Why? How? What's the use?
The basic information for any topic would be the answer to these questions. I'll take an example, suppose you have to write a short note on computer.
The points would be:
What is it? An electronic device.
When was it invented? Β Between 1833 and 1871.
Who invented it? Charles Babbage
Why did they invent it? To perform calculations
How does it work? (Input-Process-Output)
What's the main use? Storing, receiving and processing data
The more questions you answer, the more points you get. This can be applied generally, if you take your textbook and observe how many points each topic has, many might answer to the above questions.
So when you're writing the exam and you don't know how to continue, just think about what questions you've missed and answer to them.
Note: Change questions according to the topic/ subject and do not change the main keywords.
Bonus: Write all the general questions related to each lesson at the starting of the lesson or your notes. So, while revising, you'll know your order.
Keep a small notepad with you so you can write down important things. If you don't write down things, you will definitely forget. It's gonna be helpful for you to stay organized.

Reminder
Your sadness is valid.
Your frustration is valid.
Your pain is valid.
Your jealousy is valid.
Your hurt is valid.
Your disappointment is valid.
Your shame/guilt is valid.
Your regret is valid.
Your anxiety is valid.
Your happiness is valid.
Your enthusiasm is valid.
Your passion is valid.
Your love is valid.
Your emotions are valid.
No matter what your emotions are, they are valid. You are allowed to feel.
But that does not mean your reactions may be valid too. You cannot hurt other people because of your emotions. You are responsible for your reactions to emotions.
Responsibility does not dismiss your validity of feeling a particular emotion.

gentle reminder don't focus on how your body looks, instead think about how healthy you are, how strong your body is and what it can do.

Friendly Advice
Decide your major early. And don't tell anyone about it. At least not your teachers or people who will change your mind. It's application week here, and I was close to banging my head against the wall. It's not supposed to be difficult until you make it difficult. So, do what you wanna do. You do know it. You just need to shut off the noise that keeps telling you what you "have" to do.
If you take the bus, wave to the driver and thank them as you're getting off the bus.
Being a bus driver is an underappreciated and difficult job but still very vital to society. They still have to do customer service and deal with rude and even aggressive passengers, and on top of that have to deal with traffic and other drivers all day (and let's face it, there's a lot of bad drivers out there who aren't considerate about sharing the road). All while providing an invaluable service of getting us where we need to go. Showing them some appreciation can go a long ways for someone doing such an important job that usually gets little to no recognition or thanks.
