1. Do assigned homework as soon as its assigned

The worst thing that you could possibly do is leave your homework to the last minute. You will have so many question’s and I can guarantee that you will realise you don’t know even half of what you thought you did (trust me I have been there, done that).  Your tests also become so much less stressful and easier for you if you do all your homework on time.

  2. Use class time wisely

If you use your class time wisely, not only do you not have to do as much homework at home but you also have people there to help you if you get stuck. You may want to relax and not do anything, but why do that now, when you could do that later instead of your homework! Furthermore, this will help you to stay on track with completing assigned homework as soon as it is assigned.

   3.  Don’t prepare for tests the day before

This can go hand in hand with not completing your homework on time, but there is nothing worse than studying the day before! You will not have time to ask questions the next day if you get stuck on one, therefore you will be at a huge disadvantage and your grade will suffer from that. And who wants that!?!?!

   4.  Write notes

Notes can help you for your assignments for that day, for unit test, but most especially for the midterm and final. They are so easy to go back to if you forget how to do something. Notes will be your holy bible of Pre-Calc 11!

  5.  Focus from the beginning to end

Whether it is the start of the year or the end of it, everyone will begin their semester off trying their ultimate best. Though, we all know that we say to ourselves “well if I don’t study for this test, I’ll just study for the next one”. That right there, not a good plan, because one test can affect your mark and learning severely. Everything we learn in Pre-Calc all coincides with each other and if you miss out in learning for one or two units everything else will not make sense. So listen, do your homework and don’t tell yourself that you’ll start trying again near the end of the semester because by then, it is already too late! You only have one year left of school after this, make it the best that you can make it!
