How do you guys focus in school?

[billyguy1]

I USUALLY START MY HW BETWEEN 8-12 AT NIGHT, A LOT OF TIMES I GET LESS THAN 4 HOURS OF SLEEP, AND I RUSH HW, AND DONT STUDY AND I STILL HAVE STRAIGHT A'S AND IM IN ALL HONORS AND IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE.

Edit: I just wanted to post because I may be able to use some school related tips

go to bed

But seriously, I retain the information learned in class very well, so I don't need to study for tests for a very long time. I usually recopy my notes a few times on separate sheets of paper because I tend to remember stuff that I write down many, many, times. As for projects and assignments, I leave them for the last weekend possible but yet still get good grades because that's just how life works. My average is around 94 (96 without French class) and my friends are consistently insisting I am part Asian.

Sleeping actually helps?

I stay up to 2 like every night, and I get an A/B average.

I can't help much with attention-spans since that's really all you, but a good tip for bringing grades up is to study. Teachers nail it in to your head, but it really does help, and when you get into High School+ it basically becomes a part of you.

I read in one of those "did you know" Tumblr posts that people who go to bed later tend to be smarter. I don't know if it's true, though.

If I don't like the class I can't pay attention. Therefore I have a B in science. Everything else is an A. However I start my homework at 9ish and usually do some on the morning. I then stay on my iPod until 1 or 2 in the morning. That means I get 4-5 hours of sleep on school days. I use mio energy to stay awake during the day about everyday. I also procrastinate on any project. My sleep schedule turns into sleeping until 1-2 in the afternoon when I don't gave school. What I'm trying to say is that I'm the ideal student.

I always try to get 9-10 hours of sleep of school nights. When you sleep all of your short-term memory transfers to long-term memory, but only if you get enough sleep. To pay attention in class, I always have to be moving. I tap my pencil, shake my foot, or do something. A lot of times, I do this unconsciously. If I am not truly interested in a subject, that is the only way I will pay attention. Also, with the sleep, because I pay attention better in class, I don't do very much studying. Everything I learn in class, just transfers to my brain. Find your learning style. I practically memorize it if I say it out-loud 3-4 times. The better you know how, you learn, the better you will do in school. Hope this helps!

I like learning. The only subject I absolutely hate is Social Studies. Other than that, the learning is fun, so I pay attention pretty well.

I drink soda at lunch so i can not fall asleep during math.

My grades dropped from straight As to 3 As, 4 Bs and a C because I started having trouble sleeping towards the end of the year. So I guess get lots of sleep
