Well you made the mistake of going to college and not caring.... Oof... if you fail your exams and do shitty in school you can expect a shitty job in your future. Then expect crippling loan debt with no money to do fun stuff like skiing.


Work today so you can play tomorrow. It's really nice having fuck you money to spend on ski trips whenever I want but none of that would be possible if I was lazy in school.


A trade is a great route too. If you're early on in your educational career, maybe it's time to reassess your goals?

Omg lmao. If you're not understanding it now, you're fucked. Math comes easy to me but doing a shit ton of practice problems with some music playing is always a good time.


If you fuck off in high school and get Ds you're fucked. A "c" student in HS can still excel in college; I've seen plenty of dipshits put the work ethic in and end up very well off. But I've seen way more douche bags who did nothing in HS and now work at a fast food joint.

Don't be a deadbeat man. High school is so fucking easy there's no excuse to get shitty grades.

Study your tests. Its a shortcut.
Next best idea is to put in your mind that your gonna fail so that you double down. If all that fails; cheat and dont get caught.

Make all the debt you're taking on worth by studying and finishing a degree program. Don't the person that is paying loans on a degree they never earned.

^^^^^^^ what they said.
Piled up big credit debt enjoying life early, now, still enjoying life but on a less grand scale.
Interest and minimum payments will crush your soul.
Work hard now, play big later.

utilize metacognition. Break it down into what you need to study and how. Short 25-35 minute sessions timed, stop, take a break, review what you've done, and keep going.

if its a test, then not a bad idea to go through prior exams and study the question banks. Some finals are all ripped from prior exams unless your prof throws a curveball and gives you something entirely new. Don't just study for the right answer, actually think about the answers you got wrong too so you can not only learn something but when it comes down to you, you can fight for those points. Sounds like your schema for the course hasnt been developed much so that also does help people. Theres lots of people out there who can retain the knowledge, barely study, and still get passing scores, so don't rely on that.
