Your interviewers are looking to admit students who are not only diligent in their studies and perform well on exams but can also strike a balance in their life to ensure their work is sustainable. They want to make sure you don't burn out by burning the candle at both ends.
Talk about the tools and resources you employ in your coursework and studies and how you stay organized. Exhibit strong time management skills. Explain how you prioritize your work. Being singularly focused is a strength, so long as you can shift gears and exhibit flexibility when the need arises. Whatever your approach, take time to walk your admissions interviewers through your process while providing as much detail as possible. Your answer will help them assess your approach to your work and whether you'll be a good fit for their university.

"I am a well-organized student and have created a plan that works well for me. When I prepare for an exam, I map out the content I need to learn and divide that content over the number of days I have available to prepare. When I create a study calendar, I leave the final three days leading up to the exam to review the entire library of content. I am a big fan of study aids, as I believe they work much better than simply reading and re-reading the materials. Aids such as flashcards are much more helpful to me than highlighting my notes. I also create practice problems and, when possible, pair up with a fellow student to test each other in written form or verbal lightning rounds. My approach has been successful, as reflected in my overall GPA."
