Looking back, I realize I have never once studied for a test in my entire life. Never. At all. And yet, when I was in school earlier this year I had the highest marks of the whole school. This is why I homeschool now, because school wasn't teaching me anything.
Do you study for stuff like tests? If not, what are your grades like?

I usually never study.....
I coasted through k-9
then depression set in and i stopped giving a fuck period
the only thing that saved my was my test marks cause i never bothered with assignments
My bio30 i probly did 4-5 out of 18 lessons yet i passed with a mark in the 70's

I rarely study because A's normally come easy to me... But at the beginning of this year [my first year of high school] I studied my ass off and came close to straight A's.. These past two marking periods I really haven't given a fuck and haven't studied much, I got mostly A's and B's and a couple of C's by not studying... This marking period [which is one of those previously mentioned marking periods] I've started to study again and I'm getting mostly B+'s and A-'s, but still I'd like straight A's... I plan on winging finals though, because I'm just tired of thinking.. I want school to end already...

I don't break my back studying but I do a bit like. Not a lot, but a bit. I am currently on a 2.1 degree, so I am doing something right.

I've never been a crazy studier, but I do review before tests. Key terms/concepts, skim through the section in the book, that kind of thing. My grades have never seemed dependant on it though. From K-8 I got almost all A's without really trying. I had the occasional B, and I remember failing a dinky 10 point quiz in 6th grade, but it was all easy for me. By high school though I was having issues with life and my grades reflected that. My first semester of freshman year I managed a 4.0, but then it all went downhill. Sophomore year... I got D's in Biology and Algebra2, and A's and B's in everything else. This year, I just passed Pre-Calc with a C and then promptly switched to business math, and all of this is without making changes in study habits. If anything I study more now. But yeah, studying is definitely not a huge influence on my grades. What matters most for me is if I've learned the material somehow and if my brain will let me concentrate (otherwise, the words on the test are just lines and squiggles and I can't figure it out easily).

I really study hard for a test. I never just blow it off. I used to though in regular school.

In school, I didnt have to.
In uni ....*geek alert* ...I actually reeally like learning about the things Im taught :redface: haha! Which I guess is the same thing as studying.
I suppose its different from school because Ive chosen to do this and it interests me.

I hardly ever studied because I always kept the information in my head but when I stopped caring about life I stopped doing so well in school but i never failed though. But now my grades are great and I still don't study.

I never study, except for final exams, but it's a light study. I'll make a habit out of light studying more often

I hardly ever study, only when the test is on something I dont fully understand. I might look at main concepts and ideas, but I usually pay attention in class, and then learning comes easy to me. My worst grade this year on my report card was an A-. I must be doing something right.

Lets see I had an exam.. I had twice as less time to take it than others did, due to reasons I am not willing to explain, and I didn't study at all..
I managed to pass with completly skipping the things that annoyed me xD...
But yeah I've never really studied.. There have been times where I've looked at some of my notes for 5 seconds but such occurances have only happened a few times.

I normally don't study. I was valedictorian of my class, but no I don't study for much, just every once in a while.

I've never studied for a test...ever. lol I do pretty good on my tests but I'm always to lazy to do homework which is really the only reason that my grades are like C's.

Back in high school, I only ever studied for tests and exams that involved geo. Other than that I barely studied. My ave in high school was 96.3%

Nope. 9th grade was a total write-off for me. I failed one class, and got mostly D's and C's in the others. I'm thinking the reason that I did so bad was because I had to go to a school that I totally hated, which brought on a lot of depression. Hopefully, next year will be better, since i'm going to a different school.
