How Do I Study – Be Smarter And Get High Grades

Studying all my heart out and still having failing grades is so frustrating and adding the fact that I do have a perfectionist father that always expects the best from me gives me more pressure. I’m in my first year taking up Bachelor of Science and my grades are always been the same no matter what I do, still I see failing marks. I’m not a nerd or a book worm and I’m starting to give up. I also wanted to have a fun life and I don’t want to get stuck with the four corners of my room studying all day and see no improvements at all with my grades.  I’ve always asked myself what was wrong with me. I’m living a healthy lifestyle and taking up vitamins with brain boosters and memory enhancers. But I don’t think that is enough.

Tutors can be of great help but I don’t want to rely on them forever. So I spoke with my tutor and I told her that I wanted to have passing grades but I want to do it on my own. I’m not a kid anymore and I want to have a sense of independence even with this little thing. My dad was of course reluctant to let go of my tutor but luckily she understood what I was going through. She then told me and my dad this study smarter book that she wanted to buy and hoped we could try it and that it could help me with my studies. What do I expect? My dad believed her and purchased it and so I’m obliged to read and try it. Now that I’m done reading it and have been receiving the mindmaps I am starting to see how I can study smarter with less effort. With all the help I’m getting from practically teaching me how to study with less effort to the strategies I’m learning from this and doing them, I finally get better grades than what I obtain before with the aid of my tutor. Plus, I don’t get to stress myself out to understand and comprehend my lessons and pass the exams. Actually, I’m starting to get high grades on our exams and I’m so happy! College life couldn’t be so much fun!
