If you've practiced enough, you really just need to remember the quotes and then the technique and theme will come to you straightaway.

I only started memorising the night before my trial exams.

Just memorise quotes/techniques/effects and it will flow nicely.

ie. just memorize the peels (or technically it's PETELs -> point, example, technique, effect, link to Q) and that way you should be set, provided that you also studied the texts in depth

Don't memorise it word for word.

Write an essay plan, with your topic sentences, quotes, techniques, main points. This way you'll actually give yourself a chance. Remember to get a good night sleep because sleep enhances memory.

Good luck!

I did it throughout the year, in tuition and etc. So, it was basically revision.
