7. Don’t wait until the last minute to do your assignment that was due today.
I know a lot of students say that more ideas comes out when you do the assignment last minute, but it really depends on how you write it and what the professor prefers. If you know that you have an assignment due in 2 weeks, then you should already have great ideas and take notes when your professor is giving you tips for how to achieve a better grade.
