How to Be Unsuccessful In School
Going to school is very beneficial, but if a student does not manage their time and enjoy learning, they will be unsuccessful in their studies. I am currently attending my fourth semester of college however I am still a freshmen. Becoming aware of the habits I had made in previous semesters helped me realize why I was having trouble achieving satisfactory grades. Because of my actions at the two previous institutions I wasted much of my time and money. After failing three semesters, I finally realized how unsuccessful I actually was. The reasons I was so unsuccessful were my lack of preparation, unmanageability, and I had no respect towards others in class. For the people who are unaware why these actions contributed to my failure in school, I will explain them.
First of all, a way to come to class unprepared would be coming to class late.

Betonwerksteinskulptur "Lehrer-Student" von Reinha...As a student I decided to go partying the night before a class and stay up until four o'clock in the morning instead of study. When the alarm went off at seven a.m., I decided to hit the snooze button. I would then crawl out of bed a half an hour later and take my time getting ready. By the time I arrived at school, I had already missed half of my Biology class. Because I was late to class, I was half awake, not prepared to learn, I was thinking of the night before, and I had also missed out on important points in the lecture. If this sort of thing rarely happened it would have been no major problem. However, I was either always late for my classes or sometimes I didn't even make an effort to show up at all. Not attending class...
Best Effort
Much of what is stated in this essay is true. You get out of school what you put into it. Although a few teachers can be real jerks, most of them want students to do well. Just treat them with respect and they are willing to work with students who want to learn; they will help you get the best grade possible. Just remember that it is a two way street, keep up your end by doing homework, participate in class, be respectful of others point of veiw even if you don't agree with it. Also be on time and leave you cell-phone off; these distractions effect the whole group and show a lack of respect.
