#2. Sitting in the center front in your class:
Only attending the lecture will not help you to be the best in your class, you have to sit in front of your teacher so that you could focus in class.

Also, you will be easily able to ask your doubt from your teacher without getting embarrassed. It will make a great image of yours in the mind of your teacher and they will give you good internal marks as well.
#3. Attend every class.if not possible, study from your friend:
Maybe you are smart and you would be thinking that I can study one or two chapter myself and bunk the class, I am sure you can do that.
However, you must know that if you attend and only listen to the teacher, you will be able to retain more than 75% which will help you at the time of revision.
While if you study yourself you will have to revise at least two to three times to remember it.
In the classroom, sometimes teacher tell us some important tricks and tips as well, which you can not find your self.

#5. Get sufficient sleep:
Nowadays teens generally wake up at night using Facebook/Whatsapp and chatting whole night and they hardly sleep 4 hours.
Sleeping is not necessary only for the spending night but also for:
- Proper functioning of your body
- A good memory
- Removing unnecessary thoughts from your mind
- Making you relax and fresh.
- Help to be creative and much more.
#6. Revisit your notebook:
Most of the students once written in the notebook they read that at the time of test only. This is a bad habit and takes a longer time to remember stuff as well.
According to a study, if we revise immediately after studying something new, the chances of retention is increased by a high percentage.
Revise your notes just after the class, since all content is fresh in your mind, it will not take more time to revise and also it will be remembered in your mind for a long time. There are more benefits of it such as:
- You will make short notes of abbreviations
- You can track mistakes if any
- You can highlight the important things using color code
- You can discuss your teachers if you find some new doubts.
#7. Eat that frog: Study difficult chapter first.
If you are asked to eat a frog, then which time will be the best for you? according to the author of a book "eat that frog" it will be the morning just after waking up.
Cause when you finish your most difficult task in the morning, your whole day will be easy and exciting to do something new.
So, always start to study the most difficult subject. And try to make a rough timetable to avoid the procrastination.
#8. Avoid group study:
Group study is good when you are revising subjects or you have studied that subjects before cause in group study not more than two members are intended to study. They only come to enjoy and talk to each other.
Group study is better for some case but mostly avoid it especially during exam time.
#9. Use your gadgets smartly:

You can use your smartphones, laptop etc for the educational purpose as well:
- Making and storing the soft copy of your notebook to study anytime and anywhere.

- Reading good educational blogs like being smart
- Making a study group of your classmates on Facebook to discuss doubts and events.
- By following your mentors on Twitter.

It will make you physically able to study and gain the knowledge.
