New school year, how to succeed?

Hi, I’m in high school and I’m taking some AP classes this year and all honors otherwise. I’m pretty nervous about the school year starting, and I want to be extremely successful this year. However, I have lots of extracurriculars, and I play sports and an instrument seriously. What suggestions could you give me for how to be successful this school year, like how to prepare for tests, how to stay awake while I’m doing homework (I get home late), how to do well in AP’s, and how to stay motivated to work hard? Thanks..

PLAN PLAN PLAN!!

haha, i know exactly what you mean with the full course load!

i’m doing four AP’s this year…

anyway, what always keeps me going is getting a big wall calendar PLUS getting a personal planner. not an electronic PDA, but a cheap agenda notebook.

keep everything written down and planned out, that way you can keep things organized.

don’t procrastinate, that’s the worst thing to do with ANY advanced class, and be in bed by 10/11 every night, because you need to get your sleep.

but make sure you “schedule” time to have to yourself, because it’s unhealthy to be busy 24/7.

good luck!
