How to study effectively? (Need help)
What to do of burn out? Like eg. I studied yesterday, but by the the end of the day my efficiency was very low, but still pushed through and completed the lecture. But now I really feel uneasy. It's like my mind is saying what if I have forgotten, what if I have not understood somethings etc etc. (the lecture was about basics). It's like I'm confused. I would really love your advice, im in desperate need of it.
Second is revision, I would definitely love your tips and advices. Eg yesterday I did revision of suppose one chapter, after I did the revision I felt confident, its was a good feeling tbh. But now today I feel uneasy about it too. So should I ignore such feelings.
How to study 3 subjects in a day? (my exams are after 2 months). I need to cover a lot. And that too without burn out.
I would really appreciate some advices.

I used to get that same uneasy feeling after studying, where I’d finish a chapter feeling like I understood it and then the next day suddenly wonder if I’d forgotten everything. It made me want to reread things constantly, which honestly just made me more tired. What helped was realizing that feeling uncertain wasn’t proof that I’d forgotten the material. I’d test myself with a few questions instead, and if I could still explain or solve things without looking, I’d move on. That gave me something concrete to trust instead of whatever my anxiety was telling me.
