I write this post not because I’m a good student. I’m not even the dean’s list student. But this is the plan that I will try to follow in order to get better CGPA for this semester. I’ve got so much to catch up so I able to graduate at least as honors student (don’t even think to get first-class degree!!!). Here are the list to get better grade for lazy student like me.
1.
Pray to God
No matter what religion you are,
always start and closed the lecture or any study session with prayer. As a
Muslim we believe that only with his blessing we manage to success in life.
Even if you are success enough, without his blessing, it will be meaningless.
Maybe you managed to get excellent grade but your life gonna be miserable. You
realized or not, it happens.
2.
Attend Class
First thing that you must take
care is ATTEND ALL THE CLASS!! Especially the first week lecture as all the
lecturer will always ranting about the course outcome (COs) and programs outcome.
You realized or not, your exam question is structured based on all these COs.
If you too lazy to coming to class just check it in your university’s portal
the download it.
3.
Ask question ASAP
If you can’t understand the
lecture ask your lecturer as soon as possible. If you don’t you might end up
forgetting about it OR you may fail to understand the next lesson if it is
related. So just ask!! You might think “Is my question too childish, is this
too easy, am I the only one who can’t understand?” It’s okay, it’s just the way
to learn something better. If you’re too shy, ask your lecturer personally, make an appointment . I’m
sure you own lecturer had said the same things over and over again.
4.
Be close to your lecturer
The one who make and marks your
exam question is no other than your own lecturer. So close enough to them so
you might have a chance to get some more tips on final exam. BUT don’t be TOO
OBVIOUS because you might be even lower marks than others. You know!! When
someone be close to you for some other reason it’s rather be annoying, right?
5.
Library as your second Home
To be successful student, make
library as your second home. Library is the best place to study, there is no
your annoying friend that always take you out for movies or shopping. It is a
quiet zone so you can’t watch Runningman along with 100 decibel laugh or layan any
lovey-dovey Kdrama with cloud nine imagination (I admit it. I love both!!!). It
is the best place to tell yourself this is time for study, stop playing
around!!! Yeah, it’s not gonna be easy to force yourself but you have to think
about your future or at least, think about your parents, all they want is to
see you graduate with flying colors result. Pity them if you don’t even try to
study.
6.
Choose a good friend
Chose a friend that will motivate
you to study harder and do better in your examination. Get away from someone that
will only destroyed you! If you talk about loyalty, why you should be loyal to
someone who does not even care about your future? Your future is yours, don’t
let others destroy it!
7.
Struggle till the last second
Even if you only have 2 hours to
study for tomorrow exam, DON’T GIVE UP! It is not the end until it is really the end. So try your best until the last second before the exam paper is in front
your table. You still have time to change the grade on your result slip. Just
believe yourself and the miracle will come.
