High school students are some of the busiest people in the world. To get the most from all
you do, you must be in control of your time. Your success in high school depends on your use
of time. Here are some important things to remember.
* Begin each term by filling in a master plan. First fill in things you must do (classes, work,
practice, etc. That you can't change). Then find the most effective use for these times.
* Set a regular time and place for study. This will save you time in the long run. If you have
a study hall in your school, use it!
* Use daylight hours to study whenever possible. For most people for every hour of study
done in daylight hours, it will take them one and a half hours to do the same task at night.
*Take breaks. Don't plan marathon study time. Have a short rest before you study again.
*By using flash cards or summary sheets, you can use odd times to study-----while you're
waiting for class to start or for a friend to pick you up.
* If possible, plan study time with a partner. Choose your partner wisely however. Make
sure you study, not socialize yourself.
* Do the most difficult tasks when you a
re active. (Take math for example: when you're
energetic, it will become easier to solve; when you're tired, it will be impossible ! )
*Make a daily checklist. Do the most important tasks first.
