advice for my grades?

hey everyone, my name is eve and im graduating next year.. I participate in my schools NHS, i'm a french NHS student, IB mentor for underclassmen, Speech and Debate competitor, former Acdec competitor, and enjoy most of my time in a visual arts club where I draw, listen to music, make new friends, and socialize. However, I'm not an amazing "4.5 GPA with straight A's" student, and I've been struggling with my recent report card.

Last semester, I had 3 C's and it has been destroying my self-esteem. I would like some advice on how I can do my very best this semester and how to deal with stress over school. What do you do in a situation like this and how can I get back up stronger? In times of stress and overwhelming moments, how do i stop myself from procrastinating and face the issue head on?

Thanks :)

What works for me when I'm putting off stuff is just to remind myself, ask a friend or sibling to keep track of stuff for you. Also, set specific dates and times, or deadlines. To deal with stress, keep your school stuff separate, you should not be thinking about calculus during your gov final. Lunch and sleep too, definitely keep your schoolwork out of it. It'll help with stress. Good Luck!
