The following advice worked for me. I came up top in one of my courses. 1. Study as if you are required to teach the subject. 2. Make your own notes. 3. Summarise the notes again and again until you know it at the tip of your fingers. 4. Help others understand when they ask you. Be humble. I hope you will work on the above. If you need more specifics, just ask. Studying should be enjoyable, and it is up to you to motivate yourself.

@Claire_ut Read the lectures notes as well as ask the lecturers for recommended text. Go to the library. Always paraphrase your understanding in your own words. It makes the notes more understandable to you when you read them again some time down the road. Hope it helps.

I copied in exams Kidding. But on a serious note there is no alternative of hard work if one has to improve his grades. I know education differ in different countries but our system requires lot of hard work to get better grades esp in higher studies.
