How do I get good grades?

Question

I'm going to be a Sophomore in high school next year and I failed 2 classes my Freshman year. I want to know any tips on concentrating and paying attention in class (even if the teacher is soo boring he can make you fall asleep) and get homework done at home when there's 5 younger siblings running around and screaming thier heads off. I would very much appreciate the advice!!!

Answer 1

stop fcking around and pay attention to the teacher. hope i helped good luck

Answer 2

go to a friends house and study together. I normally tell my parents it will take an hour longer than it will so we can play video games and stuff.

Answer 3

There are lots of ways to get good grades.

1. Stop fooling around

2. PAY ATTENTION!

3. Listen, don't just act like you're listening

4. Take notes and study them

5. Get organized so you don't lose any of those notes

6. Study with a friend or by yourself in a quiet place so you don't get distracted.

7. If you don't understand, ask the teacher to help. You don't have to be shy for not understanding; chances are, other people may have the same question.

8. Participate in class. Raise your hand and answer questions. Don't just sit your seat and daydream, or you'll probably be picked by the teacher just to be humilliated.

9. Do your homework RIGHT when you get home, so you don't forget about it.

10. If the teacher is boring, don't fall asleep. Get a good night sleep so you won't be tired, and excersize because...its good for you? xD

11. Paying attention is easier if you choose to sit away from your friends and focus on what the teacher is saying.

Hope this helps! ^^

Answer 4

wow, the same thing happend to me,

the not paying attention in class might be from ur peers, dont go into classes with friends.  Being with ur friends really makes u slip in grades.  When reading use ur pointer finger or book mark or sumthing and place under the line of text. THis will help u remember more and you will stay focused on the book.  And if you hav a boring teacher, see if you can take a bottle of water into the class. Drinking the water will help you out a bit.         wow
