What have you done differently in your life since your grades changed? Look at how you spend your time, who you are with, and compare that to how much work are doing. If you are spending the same amount of time away from school work as ou used to, that is a mistake. As you get older, the work gets harder and more responsibility is on you to complete this work. If you dind't realize that, take this as a wake up call and examine how you work and what you do when you are not studying.

Set a realistic study schedule. It is best if you can develop a routine and stick to it. For example, if you want to come home from school and chill for a while, allow yourself an hour to do so. Set a specific time that you will do your homework or study and do the same thing each day.
Make use of a planner at school. Write your homework assignments down before you leave class.
Get a study buddy. You and your partner can compare notes and help each other remember to complete assignments.
Get a tutor. Check your local library to see if there is an online tutoring service that they provide free for library patrons. If that is unavailable, talk to your parents about online tutoring subscriptions. It is usually fairly affordable and comes with free trials.
If you are having learning issues, don't be afraid to talk to a trusted teacher or counselor. There should be plenty of services to help anyone with learning issues.
Good luck! :-)

I found myself going through the same thing not too long ago. I think for me it was the shock of going from a straight- A student to recieving Bs and Cs that got me completely focused in no time at all. The thing to do is find your interest in your studies. The more you like the subject, the more you'll want to excel and learn as much as you can. Try to settle down and get a study plan set up. Time managment is key, and also your determination to do well. You have to become determined to do better in your studies, and with determination it's almost impossible to keep doing poorly. Also, if the subject(s) are really that hard for you, do further research of seek help from online tutorials (which I find for the most part to help me) or even a real tutor might do the trick. Another thing that helps is talking to your teachers. If they see that you want to do better, they'll help you as well. Good luck, and try hard. ;]

all of us understand that shifting up grade ranges incorporate harder textile. in spite of the shown fact that, do no longer enable the stressful circumstances scare you. i understand that it is extra uncomplicated pronounced then carried out yet see new textile as a stepping stone to enhancing your self and your destiny. If some thing seems extraordinarily complicated or you're actually not information you instructor, ask extra questions, see if there's a learn group attainable, circulate to the internet and 2 of the main intense products of suggestion that I genuinely have found out over my training is (a) use the attempt to take the try, some checks could have solutions to different questions formulated in a distinctive way. (b) by no potential learn 15-half-hour before an examination. That only leaves you feeling annoyed, extra perplexed, and 2nd guessing what you already understand. ultimately, i could say to loosen up, take a deep breathe before a try, and whilst issues look stressful ask the instructor or yet another student. you would be stunned at how nicely yet another peer can clarify suggestions to you on your point and doubtless employing your language.

i did that my soph year in high school and it dropped my GA from a 99 to a 94. i realized that i had really screwed myself over and focused more on my grades and getting into college and took the hardest classes and i raised it back up to a 99 in my junior year. My problem was that i was slacking off because i thought that since i had always made good grades that it would stay that way but it didnt- just focus more and find the way to study that fits you best! For me, its coffee and ipod late-night cram sessions!
Good Luck! i know how hard it can be!

All that you really need to do is focus more on school and less on friends and boy/girlfriends exc. It's really not that hard to keep your grades up once you get the hang of it... you'll definatley need to study for tests and do all your homework and turn it in on time. Be sure to pay more attention to what your teacher is saying during class instead of paying attention to your friends. I had this same problem in 6th and 7th grade.. but last year in 8th grade I had straight A's!! I wish you luck! Hope everything goes well!

Congratulations on wanting to do better in school. First of all, set reasonable goals. Determine what you need to do in order to achieve those goals.
Use your planner each day. Copy down assignments, and make sure that you turn them in on time.
If you are having problems with understanding some of the work, stay after school and ask the teacher for help. Also, there are teachers who offer help during lunch period.
Try to find someone in each of your classes that you can study and work on projects with.
Ask for your school librarian to help you to do research when working on papers.
Finally, don't procrastinate or wait until the last minute to do the work; you'll get overwhelmed and discouraged. If you have a large project to work on, get into the habit of working on it, even for 20 minutes each day. Good luck!

That happened to me during second trimester of last year. You should probably spend less time on your social life and more time on academics. Make sure you get all your homework done before you go party. And don't get drunk the night before a test. Better yet, don't drink at all. Work really hard on academics for a couple of weeks, and then ask your teacher if their could *possibly* an opportunity for you to earn extra credit. Do not pressure them though. It is your fault you are in the situation you are in in the first place, not theirs.

ask the teacher if he/she has any time to help you with some problems after school. i used to have a really bad grade in algebra. then i went to afterschool study sessions and i got my grades right back up, and an A on my test!
so see if you can do after-school study sessions and don't be afraid to ask questions until things make sense
