How to study for Modern History?

Studying for Modern History

Hi, I'm currently in year 12. My trials are in 2 weeks but I do not know how to go about studying. I have notes for all cores.

Should I got about creating a statistic bank and memorising statistics for each dot point? Should I go about doing a large amount of practice questions by looking over notes then attempting the questions? Or should I do a combination of both?

Any help and little bit of advice would be very much appreciated!  :)

Turn each dot point into a question, and plan a mini essay for each one. Also make a list of general quotes by historians that could be applied to more than one dot point in a module. Definitely practice some source analysis and get feedback from your teacher if possible.
Good luck!

Memorising statistics and key dates would be a good way to prepare along with doing any practice questions on the topics your school is doing. Btw does anyone have notes on Russia, Indochina and/or Civil rights in USA?
