Best way to study for an exam when you only have a week

Honestly, pick three high yield areas and one weak spot. Skim two past papers and note the repeats. Make one simple crib sheet you can glance at morning and night.
Each day I did 90 minutes of timed questions, checked answers fast, and wrote only the misses in a tiny note. Then 45 minutes trying to teach the hardest bit out loud. After that, 20 minutes of flashcards while walking or on a break. Keep the phone in another room and set a timer. Stop at a set time and sleep.
Two days out, run a full mock, then review only the mistake list. Day before, light review and a short walk, no cramming. Idk, this kept me focused without frying my brain.

Active recall and spaced repetition. Read a subsection, close the book, recite the key points and any formulas, then check. Repeat next day and a week later with practice questions. Budget roughly 60 to 90 minutes per chapter including a second pass and two short reviews.

Already covered in the sidebar. Do a degree audit, get a transfer evaluation, limit to 6 credits while working full-time, set a fixed study block. When those are done, come back with specific course questions.
