How to earn good grades


Tips to earn good grades
            Here are some general tips to earn good grades without finding so many difficulties. First of all, make sure you organize yourself and manage to write down a goal you want to achieve for the semester or the year. Second, you have to learn how to manage time between academies, extra curricular activities, and social life in college and this is achieve by making your own schedule and writing down when are all your classes and at what time you are going to do homework, making sure you have a reasonable time to do your homework and papers and then go hang our with your friends. Third, you must have a notebook to write down all your future assignments at the end of class, just in case you forget because in college you will have a lot of work to do. Then, I am pretty sure everyone knows that they have to study for tests in order to get good grades but I will remind you that you MUST study for tests because college is not like high school where you can get low grades in your tests and still bump it up with a bunch of homework. Also, I would highly recommend freshmen to take a quiz provided by PDS instructors where you will be able to see which kind of student you are, a listener or visualizer. It actually gave me tips like using notecards and writing all my notes again, which helped me earn better grades in my tests. Other tip that will help you raise your grades are making sure you don’t wait for the last day to complete your assignments and this is because first; you may run out of time, second; there are possibilities of encountering a problem and not being able to fix it in one day, and third; if you accumulate a lot of homework in one day, by the time you are done with some of it you will start feeling exhausted for the next one and chances are you will not get them done or you will get a poor grade in it due to your tiredness.
            In conclusion, there are many tips you can use to raise your grades. Just make sure you know what are your priorities before making choices. In other words; if you have a big project to do or a test to study for, make sure your work is done before making plans.
