What does it take for a student to work and go to school successfully?

It is for sure pretty tough. But if the condition insists, I think the key word is time management. Therefore, take no full time job and not so many class in the same time.

Some schools have a career development class. I know my high school did. You actually had to have a job outside of school and then in school, you took a class one period a day.

Basically, the answer to your question is:\n\nA curious and open mind.  Then, schedule and discipline.\n\nIf you have none of these you will probably not succeed in any of your endeavors to further your education.\n\nThis, from a high school drop-out to one that entered college at 38, ended with a Masters Degree and served as a school administrator until retirement.\n\nGood luck.

It's much harder (both mentally and financially) to go back to school once you've started working.  Analyze your priorities and set your goals.  Then I think you'll have your answer.

There is no shortcut to success....\nYou have to study hard wherever you go.\nWhether it is in computers or in business or in science.\nI think, you are crazy....\nYou want fruits without any efforts!!!\nThat's redicilious.. \n\nYou cannot do anything in life without hardwork...\nWhy did you take science??\nEven doing BA will be difficult for you.\nSo, wake up.\nStart studying\nDo not waste the time and money of your parents\n\nOh yes, you can do one thing...\nTry call centre jobs. They will give you a good pay. But for that also you have to work hard... Be fluent in English and be ready to awake the whole night. Also there is no security in these jobs since you don't have a good qualification.\nSo nothing works up without hard work\nThere is still time with you...\nWake up.\nDo not be lazy and get busy by doing some productive work.\nStop sitting at the internet for very long...\nTake Care

find out what motivates the student. Some are competative with their peers and that alone is motivation. Others need to know that what they are working on translates into real world scenarios. Good Luck!

Basically you pretty much have to have good grades and shine in other activities (like sports or student corsair or something...). It helps if you show any leadership qualities like running for student government etc...\n\nI think that they want to see is a well-adjusted, well-rounded student with a positive work attitude.

I think you can do anything that you set your mind to do.  If you want to get better grades you can.  I may sound like a cliche with the following saying, but "anything you want in life is work."  I liked what one person said earlier, focus on slight improvements in your grades and you will be on your way.  Additionally, this is something I learned early on (I am 33 now), but never be afraid to ask for help.  Whether its a teacher, another student that excels and is good at explaining things or seeing if your school has tutoring.  Some of the people I know who are doctors now were tutored all through high school and college to assure they were 1) on task and getting the work done and 2) had a grasp on the subject.\n\nI would also like to add, community college is a route (especially with how much college costs) you could save money by staying at home (if possible) and the transferring to a four-year college.  Also, the college that I went to (Ferris State University) for my bachelors and masters degrees works with students who might have struggled in high school, but have potential and works closely with the student the first and second year to make sure the student will succeed.  Ultimately, as I said earlier, making it happen will come down to you and your persistance, hard work (from this point forward) and commitment to setting your goals and keeping track of your progress.\n\nTalk to a guidance counselor at your high school or a teacher you trust about the change you want to make.  Keep a journal and sign a contract for yourself that states you are making this commitment to yourself.  \n\nI have worked at two universities, seen and worked with many new students  just like yourself who may have struggled or not put enough energy into high school early on, then came to college and were very successful.\n\nMuch luck!

The thing you need to change is your dedication.  You need to dedicate time and energy to school and studying so that you are successful in completing your work.  If you setup specific time to do school work and studying, you really do not have to miss times with your friends ( as long as you schedule time for them as well!).

Instill a sense of work ethic and self confidence. Sounds easy enough huh? Let me break it down.......\n1. Read to them daily\n2. Stay involved in their education\n3. Support their teachers\n4. Do homework with them\n5. Positive Reinforcement\n6. Make school a priority in the home and their life\n7. Set aside time every day for school work. The same amount everyday no matter how much homework they do or do not have.\n8. Keep education going throughout the summer with fun education settings like camps or sports. \n9. Keep them physically active. Video games and TV shorten a child's attention span making school more difficult\n10. Keep them on a low sugar diet. Healthy eating aids in memory and concentration.\n\nHope this helps!

Do the class work and the homework (do a good job).\nPay attention in class.\nSuck up to the teacher.\nDo extra credit work.\nHand everything in on time too.

The best thing that works is the old stick and carrot routine. \n\nYou encourage them to work harder by offering rewards for jobs well done, and punish them for poor performance - up to and including firing. \n\nGet rid of tenure at public schools, and make it so that regardless of how much time you put in, you have to pull your weight or you have to go.

I actually have a big problem when it comes to school myself. Im actually very intelligent, (sorry for flaunting it hehe)  but I have a problem with work ethic. As a result, my grades are suffering and Im underachieving tremendously. I gathered from this rather qucikly that school is what you make it...and getting good grades seriously enhances the overall experience.\n\nSo I would say grow a pair and study/do homework..believe me, life is alot easier when you get good grades

Ouch!  Hi MaggieSue!  A person definitely needs an education in order to learn new skills and know how to use them to the benefit of him/herself and others.  I say "Ouch!" because none of my kids (ages 24, 23, 19, 19, 18, 11, and 6) have ever been to school.\n\nHomeschooling is increasing in popularity, and is definitely an educational option for a large number of people.  Does this mean a person doesn't need to "do school?"  Not necessarily.  In homeschooling a parent directs his or her child's learning outside of a traditional school setting.\n\nWhile it is true that a doctor needs an education that is both definable and documentable, it is also true that many people learn skills on-the-job, work in apprenticeships, study on-line, take home study courses, volunteer to gain skills, join the armed services, or read to improve their abilities.\n\nAlthough college is becoming more important, and more skills require licenses and certificates, you may find that your talents lie in areas that don't require formal education.  Opportunities exist in floristry, landscaping, childcare, animal husbandry, farming, home health care, interior design, carpentry, etc.  \n\nIt is a combination of things that should help you decide the direction that you will choose concerning your education.  If finances are a problem, consider work study, scholarships and grants.  Consider some community college classes to help you decide if further education might appeal to you more than you think.\n\nDon't limit your choices.  Expand your options.  You will do well if you follow your dreams and work consistently toward your goals.\n\nGod bless your efforts.
