Ways to survive High School

The high school generally starts from class 9th and lasts up to class 12th. I am new to High school so I decided to share some tips and tricks I've found useful so far. I did a lot of research when I newly entered in class 9th so I read articles and went through youtube videos and I have selected the best of them for my readers.

1. Socializing. The very obvious part of high school is to socialize. I did not have a hard time doing it because I am an extrovert. But I have an introverted friend who needed to blend in with her new school. Fortunately, she knew a few people in her school and they had her back all the time. But, if you are not fortunate enough, I've got a piece of advice for you. Make friends, they will help you in more ways than you could ever think of. And not just any friends, only the ones in which you can trust. The "trust" part is hard because you are new to a place and you cannot just trust anyone you find in the hallway. Observe people in your class, their behavior will give you a brief piece of information and you will know whether or not to befriend them.
2. Learn to say NO. I want to explain it to you in a case study form. I have a classmate, and we had a science group assignment, so I got to know him. While the assignment, he reached up to ask a question from our homework. I knew the answer and told him. A few days ahead, he asked me to give him the answers to a whole part of the homework. I could not hold myself back anymore, I told him that I won't. You should not give them the answer key to a whole chapter's question answers. And another reason as to why was that he attended the class the day the answers were discussed. I told him that I could help him with a part but I could not just feed them the answers. This will make them reliable to me. But do this politely so no one is hurt and you can still keep healthy relationships with the person. Saying NO when you are not sure gives you an attitude that you can stand up for yourself and makes you feel more independent than before. So make sure you do it.
3. Keep a good image. You need to keep a good image in front of everyone you see. Greet the people you know and talk politely. And this one is a must- Keep your work on time. Always turn in your assignments before the due date. If you find it challenging to do so, read my previous article on HOW TO STUDY WITHOUT ANY INTERRUPTIONS. And be confident while talking or presenting yourself to people. Dress properly and look neat, people always judge how you dressed. 
4. Stand up for yourself. This is a very important thing you need to do in high school. You may find a lot of bullies in school. So have a comeback, this will warn them that you are not one of the people who will tolerate their bullying. This will also work for college students. 
5. Know what people care for. People do not care about how many friends do you have. Although it is important to have at least 2-3 friends on which you can trust. But people do care about how you behave. They will notice how you answer questions in class and how you talk so keep that in mind.
6. Stay on the schedule. Make a schedule and stay on it. This will ensure you get your papers turned in on time and will have adequate time for breaks. I have included this in my previous post so you can check it out if you need more details.

I'd be tackling issues related to friendship, career, studies, choices, and more. Being a teenager is hard, but let's face it together. I am open to suggestions so you can mail me at- ipshita7000i@gmail.com
