How do you get good grades in school?

Question

I can't get good grades but I try my hardest to work hard.

Answer 1

1. Study study study!! If you don't build good habits now you'll never learn how for college!

2. Stay organized. The more c**p you have lying around the more stressed you will be about the task at hand.

3. Work at your own pace, while still keeping up. Some people get it right away, others have to relearn it a few times, so relearn it in homework, not during a test!

4. Avoid temptation. Needless to say you won't get good grades if you give into your friends wanting to hang out when you have a big test, or going to that new movie when you should be doing your homework.

5. Do your homework! The easiest way to fall behind is to get 0's on homework. Not only is a goose egg in the grade-book, you didn't get the practice you needed to prepare for the test! Just set a time to work on it each day and then do it.

Answer 2

study, get a tutor, go to peer study groups

Answer 3

Study, do your work , go to class, and it would not hurt to do extra credit! :-]

Answer 4

I study for about 5 hours after school, daily. During school, I study. Basically, study whenever you can.

Answer 5

do the RUM method. read, understand and memorize.. but don't be too serious in studying. go out with friends, relax yourself and avoid stress.. during examinations, study 1 week ahead the examination period.. don't cram your notes because you will be mental-blocked..above all, don't forget to ask help from the Almighty One.

Answer 7

You outsmart people, be a sneaky devil, as long as they think you're doing work and you're working hard on it you'll get good grades... Unless they look really closely... but umm... make sure you understand stuff too.

If it's just the working part that you have problems with then yeah...

1. Good organization. One color of folder for each subject: red for math, blue for English, etc, so you won't waste time looking for things.

2. Pay attention

3. Read

4. Watch educational channels like Discovery and History Channel instead of MTV

5. Ask for help early

6. Have your eyes checked. I volunteered at school a few years ago and one boy had a dramatic improvement in his grades after he got glasses. He was missing alot that he was not seeing well.
