Rote learning (copying and memorizing stuff) isn't always that effective.

Some random assorted tips:
Think positively when you study and don't compare yourselves with other students. Around exam time, avoid the people who are running around panicking.

Pick a place and a time to study and stick with it. This will turn it into a habit and it'll make it a lot easier. Choose somewhere quiet like a library.

Only bring the stuff you need, like textbooks, pens and paper - basically, don't bring stuff you can procrastinate with.

When you're writing down notes, use colours for certain concepts. Try to link concepts together. Make it eye candy for your brain, instead of just long lists of words. (Addendum: It's not the Mona Lisa, you don't have to spend 50 years colouring in.)

Try to find a study group or someone else who's a good studier and you can reinforce each other.

Don't try to study in a massive big block. Break it up into 1 hour or half an hour blocks with breaks in between.

When you find your mind drifting off-topic, don't panic and try to force yourself to concentrate. Just let your mind drift and go wherever it needs to, and then gently bring yourself back to what you were doing.

Set goals, and then reward yourself when you meet them. Positive reinforcement works best!

At the beginning of the course, find out what assignments you need to do, how much they're worth, and how long they are. Plan it out and put it in your timetable.

When you're in class, try to pay attention - if the lecturer emphasises something, it's probably important.

Get some sleep. Don't eat McDonald's everyday. (Cookies are a sometimes food.) Drink water. Take a break from studying and go for a walk or something.

excellent point. i tend to find that if the prof ever repeats the same thing twice, that's them giving you a big hint that the concept is going to be reappearing later.
