Whether it is worthwhile to be an A student?

Many people think that some students want to be an A ones because they need to get a scholarship or be accepted in university with the extremely hard placement tests. In contrast, others just want As for themselves or to proof something to someone. The students wish to show that they are better, stronger or just want to hide their weaknesses. Therefore, depending on why you need it you can decide for yourselves whether it is worthwhile to have them or not. Normally in rare cases employers really look on your grades and judge you according to your As or Bs.

Unfortunately, by the time we graduate college we will hardly remember something what we learned a few years ago regardless whether we got an A or B for the class. In addition, you should keep in mind that what you have learned in your school will be very little related or look like with what you are going to do at your work place. Your degree will normally indicate just your ability to learn something fast. The only skills that you should master perfectly are your self-study and find ways to solve problems when they arise.

Study in effective way

Some professors might say that the more miserable you are with your studying the better chance you have to pass the test. Indeed, you experience yourself not one time that added timeframe pressure will make you keep moving, resulting in your best performance. However, for what price is questionable. Therefore, it is extremely important to know what enough is. Set your priorities and know why you do some things and why you don’t. You should also decide what it will bring to you in a long run. For example, if you will opt for one thing and skip the other one what it results in.

In order to excel in your class you should make a schedule that will work for you the best for your study time and breaks. Normally it is recommended after attending your lecture to read the chapters again and then do something different. For example, you can study for a different class, do some home chores, or do physical activities which is good for your health and therefore for your brain in particular. In a few hours you can come back to your previous class and finish what you started. That way you will keep up your good grades and lead your usual social life without sacrificing anything.

How to avoid burn outs while studying

Burnouts are emotional exhaustion of a student that sometimes comes from cramming a lot of learning materials in a relatively short period of time. The individual usually feel reduced sense of personal accomplishment. In addition, the person feels like he really hates and cannot overcome his strong dislike of the subject that he has to drill. These issues arise from the study management difficulties and not rational use of the given time for the preparation.
