Make sure you have a planner to note down your homework and test dates. The key is to study a bit each day and with friends. Studying with friends is fun, because you can still hang out while getting work done. I'm a visual learner, so I make flashcards while doing my homework, since I'm writing the information down I am able to retain it better when reviewing my flashcards. Use the flashcards to quiz your friends, after you finish your work reward your efforts by doing something fun.

I'm currently in the process of writing a 20 page senior research paper as well as trying to balance my other core classes and studying for AP tests in May while trying to keep relationships with all my friends! My piece of advice to you, Jasmine, is to be organized and manage your time wisely. Try to plan out your days and give certain amounts of time for certain things you'd like to get done (homework, studying for a test, community service, hanging out with friends). Prioritize what is most important to you and give that the most time and attention.

Start studying beforehand (even though I like to study the day before because I forget if I don't). Just make sure you know and review some stuff beforehand. I generally remember the stuff so I just need a good review the day before.

Well for me, I put school as top priority and then comes social life because what I socially do now won't help in the future as much. As a friend said, it is also important to have connections.

What I do is I listen to my music and I don't watch t.v. I forget about my social life and concentrate on my homework.

That's simple, I have no social life. :) jk

I study and freak out and study and freak out some more but then I do alright in the end. I also cram with little breaks in between, Then if I have time to go out I do, but school is #1

Eat a good breakfast if i have a test in the morning. Study and prepare for the test, of course. the most important thing is that i try to pay attention in class and do my homework so that i remember and get the concept and so when it come to the test, I'll be less stressful.
