This is interesting. How can you study good? I have found that going to a Library helped me study better. Reason, it put me in a study environment. Now this may not be suitable for some but what I'm trying to say is to find your comfort zone and you should be able to study better. You have to be able to shut out the outside things also. Friends, Social Media, maybe family members :-) but they should understand.

Hello, Liz !
Studying requires dedication and interest. If you have both, you will progress in your study skills. I am not sure what grade you are in, however, you may find motivation and inspiration by obtaining a tutor. A tutor can just be the guidance that you are seeking at this time.
You can receive better grades by attending class, listening to the verbal instruction as well as looking at any illustrations included in the course presentation by the teacher. Determine which elements you do not understand and ask for clarification and take notes to study from. Complete all reading assignments and note any particular passages in the book that you have questions about. I have left a link for you below to a website that has information about how you may improve your studying. Also ask family and friends for help, too. You can also form a study group at school.
To become a lawyer, you will first go to college for a Bachelors Degree and than to Law school, totaling seven years in college. It will be important to establish an effective study routine now so that you will know the best way for yourself and improve as you go forward. I have left some links below to referrals for resources that may be helpful to you.
I hope that this is helpful and I wish you all the best !

Hi, first of all you must attend all your classes and ensure that you take good, copius notes and ask good questions. If studying is better in a library because it's quiet and you can focus, then do so. Also, create good study habits. What always helped me study, especially before a test was to start studying a few days before(30 min to an hr or however long you want to start reviewing) and then take a break, reflect on what was studied and then clear your head with something else; the following day take it up again. What I would do when I studied(I lived alone) I would study and then while in shower, on my evening walks, walking outside, I reviewed what I had studied so it was still fresh in my mind. This can be a study schedule to start with. You will be able to create a study schedule that is comfortable for you. You must make the time to study and dedicate the time to doing that so you can do well. Take breaks as needed!
