student today atoms to receive mora mian his shar of criticism as ah most generalities there is mw basis of truth in this ob- mrvatlon it is obvious that not eery ac is able to excel academic ally but h is aho obvious that to do one s best is a form of ex f highly to be desired how many of us can honestly ay that we are using bur fac alties to achieve the best re nits many of us look on homework as an onerous bur den imposed on us bv a sadis tie cww of teachers this of course is an erroneous assump tion as the only one that ben eflts finally is the student no tiling is easier than to convince yourself that you do not have the ability to achieve high marks therefore it is us less exert yourself more than is barely necessarv if vou tend to arrive at this loncius ion remember whit linstcin said when asked what constil uted genius he replied gen t is five percent inspiration mad ninetyfive percent perspir abon some students feel that one does cot need to really start to work until one reaches the upper school this too is a fallacy if oik dots not receive a good basic grounding in low ei school it is almost jp05 sible to attain dtcent marks in upper school i am sure that any upper school student will confirm this statement another mistake students of ten make is to eonccntnte on the subjects we prefer at the expense of f our poorei ones naturally we should give more attention to the subjects that giyc us the most trouble b doing so one s overall average will be much unproved there is a gi owing tendency to feci that those who are able to achieve high marks are a race apart in most cases the marks attained are in direct re it ion to the amount of work involved today the number of physi cal labourers and unskilled yvorkirs is diminishing under the advance of autom ition ic industry there is however a constintlv mcreiiing demand for teachers skilled technic uiis etc it is plain that a jood education is something that wdj influence jour whole life and that vour future
