Want to answer more questions in the Work & School category?
Maybe give some free advice about: School?
Make sure you get enough sleep,have a good breakfast and clear your mind from everything.If your studying science or biology then you need to read it and understand it first then make questions out of what you understood and have the answer.For math you need to memorize the rules and solve alooooot of questions to what your taking.The rest isnt really that hard,the main thing you have to do is read it clearly and understand it then memorize the facts

I have never actually had a 4.0 in my life, but I've had good grades before, so I think I may be able to help you.
When you get a project, start it immeadiately. The longer you wait to start or work on it, the worse it can turn out. Never do a project the day before you need to turn it in because you're not as ready or as organized, and it probably won't turn out as good.
When doing you're homework, make sure you've got notes on it just in case you happen to get stuck. This can be good for English, Global, Math or Science homework. It's also good for electives you happen to take. The more you know about something, the better it helps you. And when you have notes to look at, it helps you as well because then you can at least attempt something rather than telling your teacher "I didn't know how." They rather hear or see that you tried it rather than you ignored it all together.
Study for all of your tests/quizzes. Even if it's a pop quiz, your teacher might give you a little bit of time to study it. If not, make sure you study everyday for at least an hour so if a pop quiz does happen, you'll know the material & you can be ready for it.
When doing your homework, use blue/black pen, or pencil. If you use those pretty colored BIC Pens, then your teacher might take points off. They're good for notes or highlighting/underlining, but for an actual assignment, I don't recommend them. Also, write neat, take your time & don't abbreviate, use computer-speak OR have incomplete sentences. Teachers HATE that more than anything & will most likely take a ton of points off for it, & it'll drop your grade dramatically.
Good luck. =)

Here are some of my own tips -- Always pay attention in class and take as many notes as needed. Study your notes daily, so you'll be able to keep them stored in your brain. Don't focus on memorizing every word of your notes, or any other studying materials. It's all about getting the main points and main ideas across, and stored in your memory.
One of if not the most important thing is to work hard, it can be very stressful getting and maintaining a 4.0 GPA. So you have to prepare yourself to handle that stress, and become at ease with it.
Good luck!

Study for tests and quizes sooner than when they are given. If you have a test on Friday, start to study on Tuesday. This REALLY does help.
I have vocabulary quizes every week, and I have to memorize 20 words a week for each quiz. Memorizing 20 words Thursday night is very difficult, but studying 7 on Tuesday, 7 on Wednesday, and 6 on Thursday is much more manageable.
This might sound nerdy, but when I get home, I type up the notes that I took at school so that they are much neater. It helps me make the notes easier to read (notes that are in bullets are easier than notes that are in paragraphs), and by the time a test comes around, all I have to do is print off the notes and study those instead of looking through my binder.
I hope this helps.
