How about - you'd better revise because if you fail you've wasted money, and more importantly time on the course? If that doesn't motivate you, nothing will... :D

As for the actual mechanics of it, when I last had to revise for an exam, I found it helpful to re-write my notes - condensing them to the bits that I didn't quite have in my memory. Then if you have time, you repeat the process until the amount you have to read is actually very small because you know the rest already...

The mnemonic idea didn't work for me, because you've still got the remember the unrelated item to recall stuff from memory... My brain won't do that efficiently...
