Want to answer more questions in the Work & School category?
Maybe give some free advice about: School?
Have you tried different ways of studying?
I used to get really frustrated last year (first year university) because I couldn't understand things. Here are some things I found helped.
- Study with other people! Do problems together so that you can get someone to explain it to you if you hit a rough spot. Quiz each other. It makes it easier and more fun!
- Reward yourself. Clear a set amount of time to do your work (i.e. 2 hours), then start your work. Bring a bag of small snacks, like Smarties. Every time you accomplish a small task, like reading a paragraph or doing a problem, eat a snack!
- Cat nap. If you're feeling tired, set your alarm for 20 minutes later, and sleep a little. It's just the right amount of time.
- Remember, you can always ask a teacher for help. Most teachers are willing to stay behind after school and help students who are struggling.
- Talk to your doctor about ADD. My friend was diagnosed at 20, and she has found that the help she's getting (like longer testing times, etc)really improves her grades.
Good luck!

there could be but then again maybe you hav 2 much 2 think about other than school. I kno i always go in2 school crying becuzi had a bad night like a fight wit my boyfriend or friends or my parents and i can never focus even when im fine i can never focus its all about growing up i think. you are probably just focusing on 2 much all at one time. you might not be getting enough sleep or eating enough. you might not be anything rong with you. maybe ask a doctor or your parents or maybe your school nurse and then you'll know for sure.
hope I helped :)

Have you ever been tested for dislexia? Or ADD/ADHD that was the same problems I was having when I was in School. Ask a teacher or school councler if they have ways of testing those things sometimes they can do it for free. Tell them the problems you are having and ask if thay can help at all. Also try seeing an eye doctor. Sometimes even if you have ADD/ADHD that can help you concentrate. Also if you have one or both of these things it could help to have a quite room to do your work in, or to take tests privately. I know it sounds scairy but it's a lot more commin than you might think. Also on a side not if you eat a lot of suger in your diet it can effect your concentration and make you tired. Hope I helped.

No i dont think anything is wrong you just struggle remembering things. sometimes when im trying to read and i hear just the slightest bit of sound it distracts me enough that i barely remember what i read, so what i do is i find a spot i kno is quite andi just concentrae so much better i read much quicker and still remember what i read so try and find a quite spot and see if that helps.
Good luck hope i helped! =)
