What study habits have helped you get the grades you want? My strategy is to sleep whenever I start to get tired and just set my alarm really early to study in the morning. When I work really late I can never fall asleep so it helps me stay organized and on schedule.
I usually stay after school and do my work in school because that way there’s not many distractions, like at home (TV, food, watching YouTube, etc.). This way I can get a majority of my work done (I get out of school at 2, stay until 4) and go home and finish whatever else I need to get done. I also have an app called myHomework that you enter homework into and it shows you a calendar of when you have things due, so if one day is a light homework day, I’ll get a jump on other upcoming assignments to lighten the load of a “heavier” homework day.
@MPC6789 You get out at 2?!? Not fair!!!
As far as study habits go… do as much as I can during class/lunch and then finish the rest around 9ish.
Basically my life:
-Teacher tells us we have test in a week.
-Laugh at it and tell myself I’ll study tomorrow.
-Keep doing that until day before test
-Panic mode activated
-Cry
-Curse out teacher in head
-Google “I’m gonna fail (insert class name). Help!” I mostly do this to realize that I’m not struggling alone
-Finally man up and starts studying.
-On day of test, I don’t do work for any other class. I just study.
-Receive test
-Start searching for easy questions
-Single tear drop after realization that I don’t remember how to do a problem
-Finish test
-Hope for a C
-Goes home and tell myself that it’s in the past and I’ll just have to study.
-Gets A on test
-Repeat
@Madeline25 yeah we get out of 2, but to be fair we have to wake up at like 5:45 and school begins at 7:15 in the morning.
I rarely need to study. I’m not in APs (old school didn’t offer them), and my new school’s very easy, so this may be why.
If I do need study, it’s at night, I’m not a morning person.
