My study habits (and grades!) follow this negative cycle.
At beginning of a semester I study really hard, being energized from summer break, and I make mostly A's.
After 2 weeks, I'm tired from the long nights of over-concentrated studying, added with a new confidence in myself from the good grades, so I slack off and cram a lot instead--making mostly B's. I keep doing that until I make a C, or end up with some nastly failing grade on a test. (I have made a 97 on a test once only to make a 53 on the next one weeks later.)
Then, it's like a wake-up call and I strive to make A's again.
I really need to act differently this upcoming school year.
So I'm looking for ways on how I might motivate myself, EVERYDAY, to study like I just failed a test--without the experience. Is there some daily ritual I need to go through or something I could do?
Please help!!
