Made bad grades all in school, Guess what? Your in a pickle. If you make bad grades doing the years you were in school your not going to have a good reputation. When you get older you are going to need a good job. Lets just give an example. Lets say when you get out of high school and you do not get a degree, when you get older and have children and you are still working at your high school job that's bad. The money that you get paid may get you by maybe that is if you have a husband that was smart enough, paid attention in class, and got his degree is helping you with your taxes and all your bills.

If you know you are making bad grades in school you need to leave your plans behind and focus on grades. Stay after class ask your professor for extra credit or if you do not understand, ask him to make you understand. Most of your grade in college is just if you're there paying attention. Many students just skip school to go somewhere with your friends. So make sure when you get to college, make sure you are there. In college it is your place to know all homework and deadlines. High school is nothing compared to college. In college you have to fill out a study guide and maybe the very next day or the next that test will be right in front of …show more content…
Be a good test taker. Attend all your classes do not skip your classes. Use your time wisely and make sure if you need help with something go to the professor and ask him to help you understand. Stay organized with all of your school papers. Use the textbook for notes or if you need to figure out what you don't understand. Follow good rules of writing. In college you need to have good speech, no stuttering. You have to stay stuff smooth read it plain like a robot reads children things. Also, in college there will be a lot of speeches, presentations, or a power point. When you have something that I just listed you may need a back up with technology. If you have followed all of the guideline then your grade should shoot up. And like I said a bank load of times, make sure you go to the professor when you need help when something or if you do not understand something. The professors are their to make you the best you can
It's a question that is coming up more and more in state legislation: Should good grades be required to get a driver's license? On the outside, it seems like a good plan. By requiring kids to do well in school in order to operate a car, it seems as though you could easily incentivize having good grades, which would make your city or state appear more appealing. Another point that comes up is the idea that students who have good grades are more responsible that those who don't, and therefore our streets will be safer because we have more 'responsible' people on the road driving. However, these points are flawed and unfair, and make it difficult for both students and law enforcement alike. However, these laws are not effective and are simply a nuisance for legislator to conceive, and for law enforcement to enforce.
Siddhartha: Holden, I recommend that you stay in school; it’s the only way that you will ever succeed in life. It is quite obvious that you have had many problems in the past few schools that you’ve attended. Something I’ve learned from my journey is that there is always time to turn your life around and start over again!
You will have the thought of possibly dropping out. But to avoid dropping out of school you keep on pushing and overcoming obstacles until you graduate. You can accomplish anything that you set your mind to
I understand the importance of education and where it could take me at a very young age. While I went through high school I went in with the mentality that I wanted to make my parents as proud as possible. I wanted to have a future so that I could return the favor to my parents for them being that best parents anyone could as for. Throughout my first couple of years how high school my parents satisfied as long as I was passing, but they always heard my complaints when I did not make all A’s. By the last two years of my high school they expected me to be getting all A’s and seemed disappointed when I didn’t get them all. Never anger or mean about it, they just expected much more out of me, that’s how it has been all my life, and that’s how it will always
Until this past spring I hadn't thought much about what I wanted to do or where I wanted to go for college. One day in the spring the junior class had a meeting in the auditorium about taking our ACT test and college plans. After that meeting I realized I needed a change, getting into college wasn't going to be a breeze, kind of how I had treated high school. Although I always considered myself to be fairly smart, I never had put much effort into school, but after seeing the facts and requirements to get into schools, and especially after hearing Ms. Rice saying "In today's world, the way to a successful future, is choosing college as your future", I knew I had to make an adjustment for the better so that college could be my future.
Have you ever went into a place having a set mindset on how it 's going to be? Then your mind changes. That 's what happen to me when I went into college. When you complete senior year the anxiety of college sinks in. Well I went into college thinking that it was going to awful because of what people said. A Lot of people made it seem scary like it was impossible and so hard. So I went Into college with a negative mind set and didn 't want to be there. After all the atmosphere of Saint Louis Community College is so shockingly different than Ladue High School.
Secondly, the main thing is to be responsible and make the right decisions. In college you have to make decisions and it is hard. Peer pressure come in hard when you get to college, for example you could have a test that you need to study for and there is a party that you want to go to, and all of ...
But looking at you and your grades is showing you dont give a rats ass if you make it through the next 3 months. So what's changed from your 14 year old self to now? Even last year you were still motivated, maybe even last semester you still had the energy to actually read for 10 minutes at the beginning of class instead of contemplating ways to get sick and go home. But now you feel stuck! It's one simple word that changed it all, Senioritis. It's the deathly disease that can turn your gpa from a 4.5 to a 3.7 in one simple semester. We all have it but guess what? It needs to be gone and there are ways to do this COME
I know that college will be challenging for me because I am a recent high school graduate and college is new to me. In college, many things easily distract me, but in high school, the teachers kept me on track. Now I have to do this by myself. In addition, college work is very difficult, especially when I have homework in every
In Tabula rasa, Perel returns to the ex-ESMA, but this time to record, between July 2012 and January 2013, the demolition of one of its buildings, the so-called “módulos de acomodación” (accommodation modules) where soldiers slept. The building was demolished to create a museum and memorial about the Guerra de las Malvinas (The Malvinas War, 1982). Using fixed shots and diegetic sounds characteristic of Perel’s cinema, the film opens with a working table and a computer that shows an image of the site. This first shot is crucial and marks an important distinction with El Predio insofar as it situates, from the very beginning, the filmmaker as a researcher and active witness whose job is to document destruction. From then on, Perel recovers the
Life After High School I’ve just entered my senior year of high school. I know that this is a very important year. I have a lot of decisions to make and not much time to make them. These decisions will either make or break my life, and I want to make sure that I make them to the best of my ability, because there is no turning back. I need to make sure I definitely want to attend college.
In conclusion, There are many things you will need to change and learn about yourself to be a success in college and taking accountability for all that happens while in college, will teach you growth and maturity. Relying on these positive techniques will allow you to accomplish not only being a great student but giving you the tools and exposure to be the best employee after obtaining your dream degree. I believe that most students may be successful in college and that the measure of handwork, devotion, and dedication are the features that divides the students who are effective from the students who are not. We may not all be effective at everything, yet don't work against yourself and at any rate try it out.
When students are still in high school, college looms in the distance like an ominous cloud. Frankly, all of the students are scared about going to college. When students go to college they feel like going to the great unknown – to go to a place where they don’t know anyone. But after all college is not that bad.
Trust yourself, and stay focused, although this seems very simple, it 's probably one of the hardest things to do. When your in school and you start to have doubts about if you can really get through those hard classes and you start rethinking if its really worth it, remember your initial goal. Trust in your abilities and remember that you have a right to be here. If you trust yourself and you stay focussed on your goal, you will, without a
Finding a good place to study will help a bunch, by making sure the spot is free of distractions (Dartmouth). Setting up study groups and using the library will also help when it is time to study (Hansen). Make a plan to study two hours for every hour that is spent in class, but just make sure that 30 minutes breaks are taken often and do not study the same subject after the break (Berkeley and Hansen). Knowing a good way to learn also helps. Some students learn better in the day time or better in the nighttime. Just figure out the best way to learn and then use that time to study (Dartmouth).
