Hermione Granger is the most intelligent witch in her year. Getting ten "Outstanding" O.W.Ls and always knowing answers, everybody knows she is smart! Here's what you have to do to be as smart as her.
Steps
-
Study frequently. When you have free time, study. Hermione would totally agree. Always make sure you study before a big test, and read anything that will help you gain knowledge.
-
Create a schedule. Schedules for homework can help you know what to do. You can sort things out and when you're done maybe you can do some more studying!Advertisement
-
Want to do it. If you want to do it, you're bound to get it right. If you don't want to do it, then you'll have a hard time.
-
Check your answers. If you have your mom or dad or an older sibling check your answers, you'll get the answer more often. They'll probably tell you what's wrong, what's right, and help you with what you need help with.
-
Pay Attention. The best way to get things right is to pay attention in class. By listening, you will have enough knowledge to get the top marks. Don't pass notes or chit-chat in class: be the one who knows everything.
-
Find out in advance the next thing you'll be studying and read up on it. That way, you appear to know everything. This will also help you understand the topic better, and therefore you will find class work and home work less difficult.
-
Have fun: Hermione has fun (well, her fun is with Ron and Harry and their fun is peril), so should you. Don't be worried someone might think you're a nerd, because nobody thinks Hermione is. Besides, being smart will help you on your way to success.
-
Follow rules closely. Hermione never breaks them. Make sure to read the rules for anything and follow them as well as you can. You want to be the teacher's pet!Advertisement
