What's the best way to keep up grades in 3 advanced classes? (geometry, English honors, biology)?

Question

I'm taking three advanced classes this year and want to get the best grade possible. any ideas?

Answer 1

study often.

Answer 2

Stay organized!

The easiest way I found for keeping up with several AP classes was to take really good notes, and read those notes every night.  It really cut down on the amount of time I needed to study before tests, etc.

Answer 3

Study as much as possible. And do everything and anything that can give you extra credit. Best of luck!!!!

Answer 4

Hi! I took the same three classes when I was a freshman in high school and got As (3 years ago).

With all three classes, you have to be very organized and focused. Do not skip out on homework and work for whatever points are possible. Keep a planner and write down all of your homework. Study for tests. Read the textbooks/assigned reading.

I, myself, had the hardest time with geometry. I was really bad at math in junior high and really wanted to do well in high school. I worked my *** off on all of my homework assignments and before each test, would go over the homework problems to make sure I knew everything.

Biology is ALL about memorization. Just keep at it and don't get frustrated. Also, do a good job on all of your labs.

English. Well, the hardest part is usually writing. Spend a lot of time thinking about your thesis and proofread as you write. Find something you enjoy in each book or assignment and learn to find some excitement in writing essays.

Good luck next year!

I did that too my Senior year, and it was hard, but it can be done!

You'll find that one of the classes will come easier to you than the other classes, but that doesn't mean you can slack off in it- it just means that you'll be able to put in less effort for that class and still get a good grade!

Now for the other two- work your hardest.  It sounds cliche, but it's true.  Also, your teachers are there for you, so make sure you use them to your advantage!  Go to them during study halls and after school- even go in early if you have to!  Not only will their help get you through the class since they know what they're looking for (they're teaching the class!), but they'll also see the effort you're putting in, and that may influence the grade they give you at the end of quarter!

Good luck!
