The best way to start is to write down what you do in a typical day (everything no matter how inane it is)- and you'll be shocked on how much time you waste. Trying to keep things balanced is esp hard when you're in higher education.
Then you have to figure out what is the best way for you to study. I don't study at home but go to the library or coffeeshop where no one knows me to study.
Then you have to schedule your day (get a PDA if you need one) and put away time for everything including studying, talking on the phone etc. If you stay on that schedule you'll be amazed on how much you get done.
Before you know it you'll get your grades up, learn to balance and things will get better.
I know it sounds preachy and I apologize for that, but your education is important.
Best of luck,

do extra credit..it always works..and do homework and stuff before your friends...in school pay attention to the teacher not your other classmates ]
the only thing you can do is bring up your grades. who cares if your friends get mad tell you need to get your shit straight. you need to live for yourself and sorry but this is something that you have to do for yourself. tyr asking your teachers for weekly reports to give to your parents and when they see you improving and trying you'll start to get your life back. ]
You just need to make it clear to everyone that you are in need of busting your ass to get your grades up. I can't see that friends would not understand that, so long as you make it clear to them what exactly is going on.<br>

You need a schedule? Then make one. It really is that simple. Do you eat dinner at the same time every day? Start with that. What time do you get home from school? The time from school to dinner - give yourself a half hour to relax after school, then shift into gear to either work on homework until you have to eat, or study. Then, after dinner, get right back to work.<br>

Feel free to allow yourself Friday nights to slack off. But in return, you have to set aside large parts of Saturday and ALL of Sunday to shift back into study-mode to crank out any school work and study any material you need to review.<br>

I make it sound so simple, don't I? Well, it is, so long as you have the willpower and dedication to pull it off. It admittedly might take you some time and a bit of self-torture to work yourself into a good routine, but you need to have the determination and the desire to pull your grades up - even if it means the fear of failing to drive you - it has to come from you, and you have to consciously choose to stick with it. ]
Kill your parents.. if you dont want to.. im sure there are some psycho killers around you town ;) ]
i had that same problem last year! what you have to do is sort your priorities. Make school and studying come first, and you'll see a steady incline in your grades! hope this helps!

Well did you ever think of improving your grades first? You can study, do your work, and get extra credit. You can't get your "life" back until you improve the grades. ]
