Top 10 Tips on how to do better in school

By Gaby H.15, year old high school student

1. Be studious

Weather you have a test the teacher assigned or not take 10-15 minutes for each subject and review what you did in class. This helps you so you don’t have to cram the night before!

2. Take away activities

Sometimes you might need to take away some of your favorite activities to keep focused on your studys.

Take a break from football or television time and spend some more time studying!

3. Sleep

Make sure before a big test you get at least 8 hours of sleep

Some people need sleep to concentrate on their tests

If you don’t get the sleep you need you might sleep during the test!

4. Meals

If you have a test early in the morning then make sure to eat a good breakfast.

If you are having a later test then make sure to eat lunch

If it right before lunch but long after breakfast bring a tiny snack to eat before

5. Concentrate

Don’t pay attention to stupid people in class.

Pay attention to your own test. CONCENTRATE!

6. Please don’t cheat

Cheating isn’t worth it Just do you best and don’t cheat. It’s

a stupid idea and totally not worth it because there is like a 99% chance you will get caught. It’s better that you fail on your own then passing by using someone else’s work!

7. Make it fun

Pretend that you are playing a quiz with your best friend and highest grade will get 20 bucks.

This may help you on concentrating and having fun. You will think “I want the money so I am going to do my best so I can get it!”

8. Ask for help

After studying if you still need help go see your teacher before or after school.

Teachers are paid to help their students so if you still need the help ask them

Don’t wait until the last minute. It never works!

9. Don’t Rush

Don’t rush through just to play games or something

Don’t think because everyone has finished a 50 question quiz and you are on number 10 that you have to finish in 2 minutes. Take your time. Your teacher will understand if you don’t finish as long as you tried.

10. Reward

If you did good then give yourself a good reward

If you didn’t do so good as long as you tried the best you can try harder next time to get that reward!

GOOD LUCK ON YOUR NEXT TEST!
