Just AMAN ! Be cool, calm and composed! The thing is that you still don't have that inspirational beginning. Make study as a hobby! Just for a beginning take a chapter which u find really very easy. U will understand it better because it is easy. Try to grasp the maximum u can about it.Then discuss with ur friends about the topic u studied.U will soon find urself booming with confidence.Then u will find studies interesting. for maths always start from the basics. Tough things all of a sudden can be disheartening. Just spend 45-75 minutes per day for maths in a quiet atmosphere. u will find urself improving.For Bio read the text as many times as u can.30mins for this can do.Don't study different books unless u r thorough with ur main textbook.
U might not feel easy with it at the beginning! Have patience. I'm a topper in my studies. Believe me it really works.
Penny and Penny make many! Have faith in God and God will surely guide u! With this I'm closing!!!

No worries! Many celebrities didn't get good grade in school. If you want get good grade, don't look at answers before attempting the questions/assignments. Many times I think I know how to do the questions/assignments when I've my answers next to me. However, once I do the exercises without looking at the answers, I find a lot of mistakes. Now, I try to do all assigned questions first before checking the answers. I also do not believe in "genius" (prepare for the tests/exams in last minutes). For the subjects I hate/dislike, I'll study them first because this will enhance myself to get at least a pass and do not need to face them again. I take two hours a day to study these dislike subjects. It does help because I get myself qualify as a CPA with one attempt. Ironically, I've a license and am not practising.

You may want to look into tutors, they can give you better study habits. If you're going to study, try doing so with a friend. Sometimes the time flies by faster with a "study buddy" so it won't feel like you're hitting the books for an hour plus. See the teachers if you don't understand something. It is their job to teach you until you understand. It's great that you want to do well, keep it up!

First: you need to be interested in what you are studying, not just motivated to achieve some sort of success in the future.
Second you need to understand how to answer the questions they are asking. Have a look at the link below and read it and see if it can help you when thinking about assigments and so on.
Third; always approach assignments and essayes with these uestions in mind: Who, Why, When, Where, How. Just use them as triggers to thin about the topic and apply your reasoning.
These tips doen't really help for maths so sorry about that.
Lastly -don't sweat too hard. School is just one step. You'll have plenty of opportunities to be successful. Just keep your eyes and ears open for them.

This is too widespread a question without knowing something of your childhood growing up. Are you failing tests because you are not studying; not into it or do you freeze when you get in class? You need not talk down about yourself. Your life is going to be what you make it. Are you fighting with your parents or are you in love? Find the distractions and get rid of them. B's and C's are not bad, but if you know you can do better then you can.

Don't study late into the night. Instead, sleep early and wake up about 5 a.m. to study. And in one hour, from 5 to 6 a.m. you won't even believe how much you have studied.

well, everynight study for your tests for at least one hour, get rid of distractions-turn off the tv, and cd player and put your ipod away. you should study in a quiet place that is what i do . it took me a while to get use to studying every night , but you will get used to it

it helps if you could clarify those things that you don't understand with your teacher. If your aim is to pass those algebra tests, then you should know what is being tested and work on them. Focus your attention on those chapters and work with a study partner.

my 5th grade teacher said i would rather have a student like you that just barely passed and gave a 100 percent effort than a student that was very smart and did not even try and get A's and gave it 50 percent effort.its not what you do or get its how hard you try.

The way I see it is...the best tool for studying is right here in front of you......the internet....type in search, the topics you are studying then go read and read again.....after all, the whole world is right at your fingertips, use them....copy and paste the interesting bits, re-read them and re-write them....good luck with the "A's"...........
