Well luckily we have our exams over a longer period with gaps between each exam for us to study. A lot of my friends say it's best to come up with a studying 'timetable' so you can be prepared and you'll know what to study each day.
You also won't need to study for very long if you just do it right. Put the computer and cell phone away, sit in a quiet place and make sure you give yourself a 10min break between each hour.
It's also good to attend gym or go for a run during exams. It may seem like you could never fit it in, but that hour of exercise will do your brain wonders!
Make sure you get enough sleep and a good breakfast before your exam each day.
Lastly, don't stress. Just do the best you can.

my first year of uni was super tough. i felt a lot of pressure to succeed until one day i went... the world will not end if i fail this class. then i calmed down a lot, maybe too much, im a horrible procrastinator now. currently pulling an all nighter to finish a paper due thursday

Exam weeks are never easy >_< I normally get super stressed because I want to do my absolute best and whether I do or don't study - I seem to get stressed either way. I suppose I think about it too much and think, "This is my grade on the line!" so I worry about it more than I need to.
I find a time to take a short break if it's studying I need to do. Like, study for 15 - 20 minutes, take a break to eat a snack or something (definitely during that break avoid video games, tv, and books as I know I need to get back to studying).
At times, I tend to cram in all my studying and last minute assignments all at once so it doesn't help my stress level so if you don't want to stress - space things out, but get them done.
Sometimes during exam week, I just think, "Oh! How awesome will it be once that exam/class is out of the way? I can finally relax a little!" Sometimes I may fail, but I always make sure that I did my best so that I can say that I at least did try.
