Depending on your religion,you must pray(communicate) to God about your failures and successes.You must be humble and sincere .God is the giver of wisdom so if you need it,ask him.God is capable of making you understand what you read.

Tip 2:Think positively

Failing or not doing well in an exam is not the end of the world.It is a part of life.Therefore when we fail,we must put in more effort instead of giving up.You should motivate yourself and hang out with friends that inspire you.Before a very important exam,visualize everything going out well and the questions being easy instead of feeling unprepared while you've learnt a lot.

Tip 3:Avoid jealousy and envy:

You must avoid being jealous of friends who are successful because everyone is capable of getting good grades if he/she is studies well and is determined to succeed.

Being jealous of that person is only going to hurt you.Instead,ask that friend for some tips on how to study and try and see if it works for you.

Tip 4:Be practical

If you are told to read on an experiment,ensure all the equipments are available and try the experiment by yourself.

Diagrams-Redraw diagrams in a free notebook or sketchbook and take the various parts into consideration

Other information found in textbooks,notebooks etc.

Try relating them to the environment and also research on items that cannot be found within your environment.

Tip 5:Discover yourself

One study method does not work for everyone.Some prefer the use of flashcards while others with photographic memory prefer mere reading or looking through.In addition,some students prefer studying at dawn while others think the evening works best for them.Well,choose one that works best for you.Also,discover your talents and abilities and try to improve upon your weakness.

Tip 6:DO NOT OVER LEARN!!!!!!

The more time you spend learning,the less information you are likely to remember.Therefore,try interesting ways of studying like flashcards,recording yourself,reading your notes,researching on topics etc.Also,take breaks between studies and engage in productive ventures like listening to music,watching music videos,movies,playing games,sleeping etc.Just do not overdo it.

If you over learn,( to learn for hours without taking breaks),you are likely to stress yourself and remember little.

Tip 7:Review your notes

It is important to take your notes when your teacher is teaching and after,review them over and over again.This helps you to remember.

Tip 8:Perform productive ventures in the morning

Early in the morning,avoid playing games on gadgets,watching TV etc.Rather,treat the topics you find difficult or subjects that require a lot of reading.It is believed that in the morning ,the brain is fresh so it can absorb better.

Tip 9:Be ALERT in class

Be aware of your surroundings.When your teacher is teaching,involve yourself in the lesson and try your best to ask and answer questions in class.Try your best not to eat too much before the class to avoid feeling sleepy.

Tip 10:Be strategic in your studies

Make a flexible(easy to amend) timetable and make sure you stick to it .Avoid missing a subject but if you do,try to do it the following day.

The timetable should be suitable for you.You must select the number of subjects you can do a day and the time to do each.

Do not copy the timetable your friends are doing.You are unique so you must find the number of subjects that are most suitable for you to do within a day
