There are a number of challenges and reasons which can explain why your grades are not higher.
If I asked you to tell me the reasons behind your grades, what would you say? What do you think is holding you back from achieving better results?
Maybe you’re fully aware of your obstacles and know exactly what needs to change to increase your results. But there are often numerous factors at play that can explain why your grades are not higher and that are stopping you from reaching for and achieving the top grades.
In this episode I’m going to walk you through 7 possible reasons why your grades are not higher. We’re going to cover reasons related to our time, skills, goals, beliefs…and even evolution!
I’ll also share what you need to do to combat these reasons and boost your results.
Because it IS possible for you to achieve the grades you’ve dreamed of. I’ve worked with too many students to count who’ve increased their results by 1, 2 or even 3 whole grades by improving their study skills and confidence.
