Always hit on the cute girls in your classes.

Don't stay up all night studying, study for a bit, go to bed early, then wake up at 4am and start studying again while drinking energy drinks.

Instead of a giant binder most classes can be passed with a small folder and a mechanical pencil.

When writing papers its always best to map your paper using short sentences in each paragraph telling yourself what you want to be writing in that part of the paper, it promotes better story flow and stops most brain freezes.

Play as many team sports as possible, they're fun, keep you in shape, and also helps with the ladies. (If you can't play several, pick one or two club sports you're decent at and focus on those)

Hate virtually every sport available to man, study my *** off on weekdays, relax on weekends (I actually enjoy them :D).

I really don't see how people can cope with non-honors classes.. they bore me so much :-\

Im there with ya on the sport thing. Not much for studying, never have been. Although ive pretty much always done good on tests.

You must be one of those people that does well in school. Sadly, my grades have gone down the toilet and ive been given like 10 of those "you cant even work at McDonalds with a GED" speeches. Now i see why my county has a 70% grad. rate...:mad2:

I really can't give you any tips besides to take things seriously, and pay attention to the teachers more than the bewbage.

Honestly, I sleep in most of my classes, and never study for tests, and am lucky if I finish my homework on time, and I got an A in every class except Algebra II this year.

Try to get into a part time tech school program if your school has one. I go do like 3 regular classes at my home school, then play on the CNC, weld, or do whatever in shop for 2-3 hours.

I finish this week at sometime, then have exams ( we call them the junior cert, you do it at 15-16), its easy though. I give teachers hell, because i have short temper, but its ok most times.

We combine welding and everything to do with steel into one class called engineering, its very vague and covers every thing from mechanical to civil. For a project had to make a go kart, only a small one, but small things can be complicated.

Oh yea I Hate French lol

School is for the most part a bunch of bull****, however if you want to go anywhere in life you kinda have to cater to society and get good grades.
