A. You usually study at home or in study hall

B. You don't do home work and you wonder why you are doing bad?

There are no other answers beside studying more in your freetime.
Pay more attention in class, do all your homework, and study/revise.

Lunch and learn and afterschool study hall or whatever they do at yur school try using all the free time yu have for school work

Instead of doing what those silly people are saying, you need to invent your own unique study routine. Maybe take the content you're supposed to be learning and turn it into little sketches or songs or stuffty game designs.

Homework is unimaginative and doesn't do what it's supposed to. You're unfocused because the content is not relevant to you, and so you focus on things you actually care about. You need to make the school work something you care about, and to do that you have to be creative.

That's why I turned a lot of my assessments into Garry's Mod movies, 3D animations, games or speeches that were more like opera theatre.

Personally, I never got studying. I don't understand how you "study", and I don't understand how rereading lines or doing generic questions over and over again makes you remember stuffty content. It's an awful technique.

Just make sure whatever you do is fun (the fun where you're actively engaged in the content and you want to keep going). Otherwise, you won't remember anything.

I exactly feel this

Like i can always remeber all the weapons and ranges in arma 3 within a day, but can't remeber stuff about annotations in a week of learning
