i think u should have friends who are resposible and want to make good grades also. this will also help in your friendship because you and your friends and come together in a study group and this will keep your relatioonshup intact. also, you can make a timetable-when you talk to your friends,how often you meet,how much TV you watch ,amount of study hours and what subjects shall be studied.make sure that the most time is allocated to the STUDIES and make sure that you use the timetable...it will help in your success...i know that it works

first you have to believe you can do it and it must be from your intention , plan what you have to do in your time ,don't be stressed (be relax) and try to have good friends to study with.

Always go to class.  Be there early and stay late.  Sit in the front.  Ask questions.  Be interested.  Form study groups with other students.  Go to class every time.  Do the assignments early then check them over.  Start on assignments immediately when you get them.  Be friends with others who are trying to excel in class.  Do extra research on subjects that interest you.  Look at the syllabus and do all the reading up front.  Then read it again just before the time you are supposed to have it read.  Do your work neatly and check it over.  This is from a former college professor.

Confidence and being outgoing makes one popular in school. People who generate positive energy (they love life) attract people the way honey attracts bees. In short people who are themselves earn respect from peers.\nWhat you can do to make friends is take up various new activities in school, get involved..have fun, be confident.. make the most of your young years. You will miss it!!Trust me.. Don't worry about having many friends, a true friend is more significant. Look for a TRUE friend. She/he will always be there for you but others can be decieving. So be careful what you wish for.

Most people make friends at school/college or work, because one is often of the same age group and ones shares many interests. \n\nWhy dont you join a class (dancing, cooking, yoga, anything) you'll meet people there, get into a conversation and invite them, exchange numbers and gooood luck!!

Make an effort to learn people's names(something I'm really bad at) and greet them in the halls. Join a club, go to your school dances, be nice and helpful with everyone. Make a goal to learn 1 person's name a day. If you're really shy, start off with small conversations. Getting involved at school really helps a lot. I met so many new people when I joined my school's choir. Above all, if you're afraid, just swallow your fear and meet people. Don't wait for them to meet you. You'll eventually make some friends. Good luck!

The best, easiest way is to show up for every class. Never skip one. And contribute - ask questions, answer questions, show the teacher you're paying attention. Nothing's easier than being there and nothing will get you better grades. Forget about trying to impress anybody, be yourself.

So you want to make friends now because you feel lonely .... does this about sum it up?\n\nStart slow; call your "best" friend and arrange a lunch.  During lunch tell your friend what you've told all of us and ask for his help in getting you out more socially.\n\nOr, make new friends.  Go to an event where people are put together by common interest - a book club, gardening club, whatever you are interested in.\n\nSince you've spent your life being alone, here's a rule to being a friend that will help - show interest in the other person, the friendship isn't all about you!  Ask questions about their life, most people love to share stories of their lives; after all, they want to share themselves too!

I'm just finishing up my freshman year in high school. Don't worry! You're going to be fine. Get to know your teachers and the building. Ask friends who are upperclassmen what it's like. Joining clubs or doing sports are an awesome ways to meet people. And the best way to get noticed is to just be yourself.

Just like you would make new friends in school. \nBe approachable,\nBe friendly-say hello to your neighbours.\nAs you go to the gym/pub get to know people-introduce yourself. \nIn time you will have many aquaintances and maybe a few friends from those interactions.

You just need to have patince. Joining a college club may help but that doesn't agrantee that youl meet good friends there. Good friends you usually meet when you dont expect it. When you go to school go with a big great smile and say hello to everybody. And im sure someone wil come and to you. I dont have allot of friends but the one i have are good ones. Im studying in another country and in teh almost 2 year that im here i only made 1 good friend. Friends you can have allot but good friends are hard to make. So just take it easy. Better go slow now, so you dont get hurt later. Choose wisely. You don't want someone who wil betray you later. \nIf you want we can be online friends. if your interested look me up nice_dutch123@yahoo.com

Get a study partner for the classes you want to improve in, and commit to working with them at least 2-3 days a week.  Push each other to do better.\n\nCut out the fun stuff you do instead of study, then reward yourself for studying by doing 1 of those activities only after all of your homework is done.  That might be TV, or internet access, or talking to friends, for example.  Music too - turn off the music when you study - it's just a distraction.  You might think otherwise, but try it for a couple of weeks without the tunes, and see how your grades go up.\n\nFocus on the long-term goal - good grades mean good colleges, which means good jobs, which means good pay.\n\nGood luck!
