The first step is to look at past exams and make an educated guess at whats coming up. In all my exams the format was answer 3/6 so there was always a choice. At the end of the day its guessing but you want to know at least half the course and you'll probably be grand. Plus you can always leave out the section you've done continuous assessment on if any, unless your professor is an almighty douchebag.
If you don't have a question choice you will have to learn everything. Aw.
The cheat sheet method is best for learning. Keep condensing it down, learn it by writing out the info with expanded bullet points. Then you read over that a few times and write it down with more condensed and brief bullet points. You should eventually just be learning off the few bullet points for each question and be able to recall the more in depth info from earlier versions.
You can then bring these sheets to the exam to read right up until just before the exam starts. Then when it starts write out the points on your paper for the applicable questions.
We use Moodle too but some lecturers just ignore it or leave gaps to be filled in in class. Bastards.
The only use I found for lectures in college was for meeting people and socialising. I'm far better at learning when I'm reading and writing the information in the library or somewhere solitary.
Yeah I've found that after late study sessions I have the terms learned stuck in my head next day. Involuntarily thinking of them like you would a catchy song. Its weird.

Are you a visual or auditory learner? I'm visual so when there's something I need to remember I create a highly colorful story, symbols, diagrams (IE E-S on top and S-A bottom means E and S are the action and S and A are the case that are similar) and maybe assign some really important things to body parts in a cartoonish way. It becomes even stranger when these events appear in dreams years after you've graduated.
