I hear alot of relatives saying this to me "you will regret not doing good this year" and alot of pressure has been put on me to study, not only do I fail but I fail my parents trust, and family friends are always asking how I'm doing and surely going to ask my parents how i did in yr 12, and I wouldn't like to dissapoint anyone. Since I have the oppurtunity I've been looking at websites which teach you how to "motivate" yourself into doing your homework and actually suceeding in school, I tend to suceed but I always have this gut feeling that I'm not in the mood to doing any homework at all sometimes, any links to good tips with studying would be great thanks  If anyone would like to know what subjects I'm doing in my last year of school, PM me and let me know and I'd be happy to tell you, but I wouldn't like sharing it here into the public to anyone. Thanks for everyone making a comment to this.

The only thing I can really tell you is that you have to do what you do for yourself, and not anyone else. People can put pressure on you and what not, but don't let it get to you. Get good grades because
you want to, and not because someone tells you that you need to.
I am in college now, taking Biology and looking to go to medical school, so I would like to think I have had a good amount of time in school (starting from when I was about 3 or 4 to now... I am 21 years old). Taking some cool classes and some terrible ones, and it is very hard to study. I would recommend looking over your things for about 45 minutes and then taking a short break. Just make sure you can get yourself back to studying. Our attention spans aren't too long, so breaks are necessary.
Actually, I am taking my break now, as I have a Drugs and Human Behavior test tomorrow and my mind was wandering. ;)
But as I said, do it for yourself. Not anyone else... because honestly, it's your life and you are living it. Nobody can live it for you, so do what you think is best for you. I think that's the best advice I can give you Oyabun.
Good luck on everything, if you need any further help, let me know.
