Any tips to not start slacking off during school?

Anybody have any tips so i wont start slacking off in school. Im goign to be a freshman and usually i start \slacking off towards the middle of the school year, and my grades show it. I am going to be a neonatal nurse so i need to get in med school. And this year i am in advanced classes, all of them are advanced so i def cant slack off.

try to always get a good nite’s sleep..dont hang around ppl who dont care about their grades..remember your goal (write it down in a place u know u will always see it, so u never forget it)..learn to motivate urself — ex: have a big bowl of ice cream if u finish all ur homework/studying by 9pm (just and example — u’ll find what works for u)..get some good study habits…keep positive quotes/sayings posted on ur walls or in ur books or wherever u’ll see them to keep u inspired…..good luck!!

Yes this is when school really matters. When you start out and realize a class just isn’t for you, there are ways you can drop out of that class and be put in another one. I did that with my spanish class. Sometimes that doesn’t always work though. Also, I’m sure your school will have tutor programs. I was tutored in math and chemistry and it helped a lot! Sometimes I even came in before or after school to get help. There will always be help available to you. Don’t worry too much about it.

Well… I’m only in year 9 but the same happens to me. I’ve found that I work much better in a clean environment and at places such as the library. I also try to do as much work as I can by hand rather than on the computer to help minimize distractions. Also, just closing everything except my work on the computer can also help and just thinking “I’ve got to do my work. Opening distractions is just being an idiot.” I’m still not a great worker (I procrastinate far too much) yet this still does help 🙂

Sit in the front row, get a study partner, leave one of those hanging kitty inspirational posters in your room. Do what ever it takes to keep going. Give yourself a reward when you get all of your work done. There is a ton of stuff you can do, but mostly, you need to stick your nose to the grindstone.

yeah i know how that is. but if they’re advanced classes that require constant effort to maintain decent grades then maybe you’ll be more motivated, take notes of everything in class so you stay focused, helps you remember things for tests and papers too.

Make goals(rewards) for yourself. If you want to get an A on a big test, say ‘OK, if I get an A, I’ll go get a new shirt.’ or something small. If you want to set a bigger goal, like getting all A’s in all your classes, tell yourself ‘If I get all A’s, I’ll treat myself to a whole outfit.’

If clothes aren’t your favorite thing, make it something else you like better.
