i maybe tired of studying sometimes, but i'm not tired of learning... sometimes it's just a matter of study habits and "artistically" managing your time for it. when i was a student then, most of the time what makes lazy from studying is the kind of teacher, when the teacher doesn't stimulate me to think, i find that subject unworthy for study especially when i know that my thought doesn't matter or when i know "pasa lang man syempre" :-) did you have those kind of teacher?

I have some teachers like that. Boring teachers. Sometimes, the topic is easy but they're making it too difficult. I always have that feeling that I'll pass and I do. I like teachers that challenges the student to think more. For paulit, that's easier said than done. I suggest you keep that new life in mind and start to change now! Goodluck :-)

I'm not tired of studying because I don't study :-) I'm tired of school though. My new schedule is hectic and tiring. Anyway, paulit just read your lessons, do your homeworks and participate in class. That's what I always and tries to do. Just listen to the teacher very well and when you understood the subject manner, then there is no need to review and study. That is why I don't copy notes because it distracts me from listening. I'm not saying you should not copy lectures but you should listen well to discussions. If all else fails, ask your friends or classmates to help you in your difficulties. You should also ask the teachers. Good luck.

I agree. Some people call me crazy because when I have big assignments or test coming up I do not study at all. This is my strategy:Listen. Thats all. Just listen and soak the lessons in and you'll be fine! I am a straight A student. So for all the people who sleep in class then cram the night before a test I have on thing to say to you: What goes around,comes around.

Moral lesson? Do not study! Kidding. A slow learner learns faster by listening, not by reading. Ask someone to teach you and you'll learn more than just reading.

Some books do offer easier explanation. Try other sources too like the internet. Xiaoxu, maybe you are just nervous during exams. Confidence makes a lot of difference. For Paulit, I think you are just confused, that's why sometimes the easy seems hard and the hard seems easy. Just keep on reading and you'll soon eventually learn.

agree with furion! hehe we have to focus and study and one way to study is to set your mind with the consequences. sometimes, we really have to force ourselves to study even though laziness is very tempting. its quite hard to study and learn.

set up a big target for your lessons.and everyday, force yourself to reach a goal. maybe it's difficult.maybe you dislike it. but it's useful.

i already did set up my friend but there is just that feeling of laziness comes into me..and i want to get rid of that..by forcing i really don't agree with that because if i force myself to do things well it would be hard right?

Why don't you set up a punishment or a consequence? Force yourself to study something and if you can't do it or is too lazy, then punish yourself. Maybe no Dota games for 1 month or no texting for 1 week. With this in mind, I'm sure you will study!

I am indeed so tired of studying, all the work... and my tests are so hard, especially the French ones! There's so much material to memorize and if I study too long I literally get a physical headache. Idk how to improve, I know I need to though...
