Answer 1

I'm guessing your still in High School, so I'd say to just keep studying. Don't take so many classes or too many advanced classes that you feel "overloaded". My studying tips would be to take as many notes as you can on the subject and listen to the teacher. Some teachers like to quiz you on notes that they tell and not what's on the notes. Also, don't cram in one night. If you just go over what you've learned that day it won't seem like studying. Just go over a little bit of the notes each night. Having study groups might help, but friends with the same course can help too because you can bounce ideas off of them.  

Answer 2

i'm not sure what your classes are or what level you're in...but when i was in high school, these are some of the things i used to do...

instead of trying to memorize the material the day of the test, read the books or handouts every day, even when not required. it makes a big difference between actually learning something and having to cram it in for only short periods.

also, take small 5 min. breaks every two hours or so when working hard to eat something or just to get away from the desk...it helps to keep you working for longer periods.

balance your classes so you're not taking 7 difficult classes. i used to take 4 or 5 hard classes and 2 or 3 easier but still interesting ones (like ceramics or an phys. ed. plus a 'quiet study' to actually do homework while in school)

adopt a positive attitude towards school and your classes. your goal is a car, but keep in mind, in the long run, your classes can bring you just as many benefits as being able to move around on your own. become interested in what you're learning! look up background information online or at the local library to help you understand more on each subject and to appreciate what each subject can teach you.

  

Answer 3

study hard everyday, listen to the teacher attentively;pay attention in class, take notes in class, that will help you, try memorising your notes, dont get your mind off work, concentrate, study in a place with no distractions  and dont give up =)

good luck!
