Just look at previous papers, look for pattern and what are important portion. Photocopy the notes of a person who has attended all classes and has marked important topics said by Prof.s while teaching those topic in clas..
Go to Prof., ask few questions, genuine one, and then thank him a lot, then ask Sir/Ma'am which portion I should focus on.
I have passed many courses by just telling white lies and genuine reasons to get grades up. Everything is fair in love and Grades.
I ued to completely leave few portions or just give a read which has less number of % of marks.
2-3 days before Mid Sem, a week before Final sem for all the subject, late night studies during exams.
I kept above 75 % but also watched movie or play CS. Just for one or two hours.
Never care what other tell you about why you go to Profs. why you are studying ?
They are generally those who themselves a$$ lick prof. for entire sem and study in hiding while for time pass they come to waste your time. Few question they ask after lecture are so pathetic that you may want to slap them hard. ut that's how they come into good book of Profs.
Also a major thing, your Prof.s should know your name so that they can remember you and give a better grade if you are at margin.
Works for college and schools, both.
If you want more tips, let me know.
Infect - An Indian poster can skip the post of his fallow but will read post by Pakistani. Don't believe it? Just ask, Bhagwan ki qasam kha kar batain, you will find majority do this.
Indians se tum hum baatein karte hi hain, Pakistanis se to PDF par hi baat ho paati hai.
