Study hard, apply yourself, read everything you can get your hands on. Ask questions, pay attention, and try your best.

All of these will lead to success!

1. Listen to the teacher, even when they're talking to other people
2. Make really good notes, write them down twice if you need to.
3. Always read through and analyze questions. For those that are multiple choice try to eliminate two answers first(if possible).
4. If you don't understand something, ask.
5. If it just does not sound right to you challenge a teacher's explanation during her office hours if possible. Challenging a teacher constantly during class could be misintepreted. If you're wrong and it's something that you don't understand, it makes them eager to prove that they are right. If you were right and the teacher had it wrong you will have the respect of the teacher and the rest of the class. At least you will get a way better explanation.

TIPS
Treat the teacher like a friend. It is just human nature for teachers to give the benefit of doubt to students who are pleasant and not to those who are trouble makers.
You will still need to study or review a bit...but not as much

Warnings
NEVER waste a study period
If you still have the time, study for your test at home.
It is better to study than take a risk and fail your exams.
Unless you're an "A" student, be honest, you have to do SOME studying.

HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR GRADES
1. Arrive to class early with all the necessary stuff (book, pens, paper, homework). Crappy homework is better than none, so always turn in something, no matter how bad.
2. Sit near the front and look like your paying attention (maintain eye contact, nod, smile, etc.)
3. Try to ask a question once in a while. Even if it's stupid, the teacher will think you're trying.
4. Use spellcheck and follow formatting instructions. Sometimes teachers don't read the whole paper. If it looks nice and the beginning and end are decent, your mistakes won't stand out as much.

Tips
Appearances count. If you look interested and your homework looks neat, the teacher may not realize it's all surface and very little content.
Choose classes carefully. Are you right brained (English) or left (math/science)?

Warnings
Don't lie. You will probably get caught.

If you typically get A's then you know how to study, if you don't get A's then learn how to study. Once you learn how to study you will be fine. By learning how to study I mean you need to be honest with yourself. You need to study until you know all the material inside and out, don't stop studying because you "think" you know the material, really learn it. Many people go into exams without knowing everything, this is a mistake, and leaves room for error.

So basically, don't worry about, just study:)

If you are extremely smart you will be able to understand everything that the teacher's are telling you. And by doing so you will find that the need to study just isn't necessary. I've seen people like this and they make me sick lol

I do my homework and try to learn it. I also study off of any quizzes we've had in the class. Another thing I found that helped me was typing the notes in my own words along with stuff from the text book that wasn't talked about. Just doing that is studying. Once your notes are typed, print it and review it. Learn everything from front to back, so you'll be prepared for the test no matter how the question is asked. Also read any text book you might have for the class. If you do notes on one section one day, read that section for homework. You'll be studying by doing that. It's a hard routine to get into, but once you get into doing it you'll be happy with the results.
One of my teachers said to write you're own questions 5 or 6 different ways. I never tried this, but it might help.

Perseverance is the key to success. Study hard, don't make trouble at school, or home. Take the classes associated with what you want to do for a career, good luck, at least you are making an effort.

Study hard, don' t be afraid to ask questions, do all your assignments, get a tutor if you need one, do all of your homework, don't cram the night before, make flash cards or whatever help you, go above and beyond.

Study hard and concentrate on little details so that you don't make mistakes.

Your question is an example of what not to do. Work on spelling and grammar.

Honestly, just have fun with it. Take life as it comes, do the homework, ask questions when you need to, and most importantly...be motivated. No one can do it for you, and if you aren't doing it yourself, then you got yourself in the hole, and no one can help you out but yourself.
