TIP TO DESTROY ALL YOUR CLASSMATES:

Teach them the material. You remember 20% of what you hear, but 90% of what you teach.

I know many students want to compete with their classmates and do better than all of them, and not gonna lie that was my motivation too for a long time. Not saying there’s anything wrong with that, but my best results always came when I collaborated with my classmates and helped them understand the concepts.

But of course there’s a fine line between helping someone and doing the work for them.

Made a video talking about working after school when you don't feel like it go check it out I think it will help you out a lot! https://youtu.be/saowYf1TNz4?si=BJO3k...

I'll give you a BONUS TIP on how to study after school when you're tired here:

Use weekends. If school is the priority in your life, then 1-3 hours in the morning on Saturday and Sunday can get you very far. Since your brain is fresh because you don't have the school day frying it all day, the work you do will be much higher quality. Honestly what I've found is an hour of weekend study is worth about 3 hours of after school study. I'm not saying spend all of your weekend studying, but even 1-3 hours can get you very far. And the reality is, you have to do that study some time in the week anyway, why not take advantage of when your focus is the best. Your total time worked throughout the week will be less overall.

Weekends are a modern day invention. For most of human history when humans lived in hunter gatherer societies, time didn't even exist as a concept. Humans would just wake up every day, hunt and gather food, and that's it for their day. It's not like if it was a Saturday, the humans would be like "nah man it's Saturday I'm not gonna go gather food and eat today", their survival depended on doing work every day.

Now of course in the modern day it's completely different, if we miss a day of study, our life isn't at risk. But what I'm saying is to delete the concept from your mind that the weekend is purely for doing nothing, and that you can study whenever you want, and that it might actually be better to study at the times when your brain is strongest.
