sorry I am looking for serious replies only, thank you

Answer 1

Unfortunately, there are a lot of things in life we have to do that we don't necessarily enjoy. The best thing to do is to try to find some part of it that you do enjoy, or relate it to something else that you enjoy. Other than that, just study as hard you can, and then celebrate passing the test after you do!

Answer 2

The subjects are not the issue. What you do care about is passing the exams. So bare down on that for a motivation.

Step one - look over the material to be learned get a general idea of what you will be learning, Just flip through

Step two - read the material noting or highlighting two categories of information
A. important ideas
B. Facts that have to be memorized

Write a list of the ideas you have to know

Make flash cards for the memory work

Lay the book aside and do all further study with the list and the cards

Do this with each subject - change from one subject to another to give yourself a break.

Have a given period that you are going to study. Leave yourself time for rest - do not try to cram it is not workable.

If you do not have enough time left before the exams to do the above you did not start early enough. A steady pattern of work will take you all the way through school without any last minute panic sessions. Organize your time so that you get the work done right and have time left over to do things that you want to do.

Good luck

I found a couple of things helped when i was studying & lacked motivation. If you can, study away from home, a library is the perfect place, there are too many distractions at home like t.v, people disturbing you etc at home. Its really important to set yourself a study timetable to make sure you cover everything & don't run out of time. Stick to it, if you don't you are only cheating yourself. I also found if you put the information you need to learn into different formats it not only hepls you remeber it but is more fun too. Use different coloured pen & different styles of presentation like cards, spider graph's ect. Lastly, if you have a favourite type of sweets, or something else you really like set yourself a target, like to finish a chapter, or cover one subject, then when you complete it reward yourself. Regular excersise will really help alliviate the boredom & keep your brain working as best it can, so take a few walks in between studying. Best of Luck!!!

Answer 4

Seriously think about the consequences of not studying . . .
Will you have to repeat classes which you already don't like ? Will the bad grades tank scholarship opportunities ? Sometimes studying is like a trip to the dentist . . .
going is bad, not going can be much worse.
Suck it up and get the best possible grade you can.
FYI: much of life is like this, if you learn to suck it up early & get it done now, your future wil work out much better.

Answer 5

Try to lock yourself in to what you are studying. Try getting your headphones, putting in Quadrophinia by the Who and see if that works
