Trust me, the habit never goes away. Just keep trucking.

I was mostly a C student for most of my life :(

Okay, so here's my finalized schedule for the Fall 2013 semester.

Written Communications (English) MWF: 9:30AM ~ 10:30AM
Pre-calculus 1 MW: 10:AM ~ 12:30PM
Java Programming MW: 1:30PM ~ 3PM
Japanese MWF: 3:30PM ~ 5:30PM
Everyday Chemistry (Online class)

Sheesh. A five hour dead period on Friday...

I thought I might as well load up hard. Last semester I only had one hard class and I ended up wasting all my free time.

I've always worked hard to be an A student. Graduated Highschool with a 95 and got the highest GPA average of my graduating program (4 years) at University.

I've struck the perfect balance between achieving and keeping expectations of myself low.
Pretend to do nothing all year and then High Distinctions on exams so by the time teachers realise I could have handled extra it's too late.

I also cop a fair amount of hate for it because I'm so effective at absorbing information without paying attention.

My course work averages C-/D+ but the worst exam i've done I got 84% and that was for year 11 chemistry. I think that's technically a B+.

I've got for the Fall 2013 semester:

- Genetics
- U.S. Government
- Macroeconomics

Hopefully the latter two classes will freshen my mind for debates in the D&D forum.

Plump, I REALLY wish I could do that. xD I'll pay attention more than anyone in class and not remember a thing when I get home.

As a Political Science major, I took a ton of classes about the US Government. xD The Presidency, the Legislative Branch, the Judiciary, Criminal Justice, Religion and Government... and that's just a SMALL handful. xD

And that's why people hate me for it, I'll be over in the corner on Facebook barely listening and the teacher asks me if I'm paying attention and without looking up or missing a beat I can recite the main ideas of the last 30 minutes.

I've been doing it for years though so I've had practise, and last minute exam cramming is your best friend ;D

I was a pretty good student because I just liked learning lots of things. I had a good habit of taking notes, too, and not normal school notes. I would draw and doodle about what the teacher was talking about and that helped me remember things better because I had those associations. My notebooks always looked like nonsense though.

I try to take notes but it always ends up distracting me more than it helps :p

I just "listen" but apparently that's not good enough for some teachers, to be intently listening to what they're teaching. pfffffff tl;dr I can't take notes lol

I tend to drift off, but I'm still semi-aware, so I remember everything later. For example, I've been in a Chemistry lesson, remembered important points that my English teacher said 3 hours before, and started writing them down.

I've been scolded a lot for doing it, though xD

I usually listened in school <.< I never really drifted off or anything. I guess I was a good student.

I'm split in the middle. I tend to take notes while nodding off at the same time. I don't know how I'm able to do that.

Sometimes I'm quite tryhard about taking notes. Other times I just can't focus.

I suck at being a student. :P

After I left, I realised how bad I unorganised I really was xD

Hindsight is forever 20/20, I guess.

Oh my god, are we talking about our behavior in class?

I'd be the kid texting underneath the table and sleeping, and still be managing to scrape by with rather decent grades, if I do say so myself.

It's because you're so little, Dipu. The teacher can't see you. :3
