Welcome to Gaia! ::

I really need them. I am a horrible, horrible procrastinator. It's been a skill I honed all through high school while others actually struggled and y'know, had to study? Yeah. I showed up to class and aced the test. I was that kid. Twelfth grade started to pull me down some, but I still passed everything respectably and didn't ever learn to really study.
And now university's killing me and it's awful and I need to change now while it's not too late.
So if you have any tips that you wouldn't mind sharing, I would be very thankful :'D

I have the same problem. My biggest thing is find a quiet space, like a library and break down what subjects youre studying. Personally I find study/isolated rooms the best along w/ playing music, like on an ipod or something, because it limits the distractions.

You can switch subjects, like start with math and switch to english for ex. I work for 30 min at a time before taking a break, like get up and take a break, like stretch and get a drink of water or something.

Also you can ask a school counselor. They prob have handouts on the subject as well as maybe a free tutor to help you learn how to study.

Ohh, I know what you mean. D;

English, history, and basic science all comes easy to me. I never study. I just read and soak in the stuff, then do whatever silly project is required.

AP Lit&Comp is tons of work but really, it's mostly retaining information and forming some BS opinion about it.

Mathematics and chemistry on the other hand? Numbers. NUMBERSSS. D:<

I have dyscalculia (dyslexia specific to numbers) so yeah. I have to study crazy hard. And I'm not used to it so my brain back-fires and I tend to get very low Ds. (Fs if I didn't try so darn hard)

My report card:
A
A
A(maybe B)
D
A

What the heck?

So this year I've been striving to get all As and Bs, even in chemistry.
That means buckling down and really studying hard.
No more shoving aside equations and leaving it to the last minute.
No more saying: SCREW IT I'M DONE

TL;DR
My tips:
*get outside. sunshine especially helps. I get way lower grades during the winter.
*go to the library. There's too many distractions at home.
*listen to or kill the music. Whichever helps.
*turn off all electronics when applicable. Your computer, phone, TV, everything.
*reminder sticky notes, everywhere. I mean anywhere. The shower, coffee pot, fridge, etc.
*GET HELP if you need it. Professors, study buddies, online, etc. You might be procrastinating because you don't fully understand the material.
