Learn your teacher's favorite topics within the subject. Keep your teachers interested. Figure out if your teachers want to be challenged or agreed with."
article: If you can develop a good relationship with someone who puts in the work and takes solid, readable notes during class, then you don't need to do that work yourself. Before a big test, ask your friend if you can photocopy their notes, and study from those. To keep your friend from feeling like you're taking advantage of them, you can alternate days on which you take notes. You take notes one day while your friend relaxes, and switch the next day. While that doesn't sound like a way to get by without working too hard, it actually is. If your teacher gives you a study guide for a test, and you decide to split up the work with three of your classmates, then you only have to do of the research you otherwise would have had to do in order to study for the test. In fact, of the answers to the test just magically appear without you having to do any work. All you have to do is read the work your study group has done for you! Most likely, your teachers haven't made multiple versions of their tests, so on test day, talk to students who took the test before you. Without asking specifics, ask them what areas the test focused on. You can spend the rest of your free time before the test looking over the textbook, handouts, and notes on those subjects. Never ask for specific questions from the exam. If you get caught doing that, you'll be in trouble for cheating. Think about how much you hate giving presentations in class, even if they're just five minutes long. Imagine doing that all day every day that's what teaching is! When students ask questions, it makes teachers feel great because they don't feel like they're doing all that work for nothing. Make sure to ask at least one question in every class, every day. It doesn't have to even be a smart question just show the teacher that you're paying some kind of attention. Your teachers will remember you as a student who wants to learn and understand, even if you're just going through the motion of asking questions. They might be more forgiving when it comes time to enter grades at the end of the year. Which book did your English teacher say changed her life when he was your age? Which president does your US History teacher keep bringing up over and over again, no matter what she's supposed to be covering? Use this information to your benefit. If a teacher enjoys reading your paper because it's on their favorite subject, it might influence them to give you a higher grade. Some teachers might be more likely to put questions about their favorite subject on tests. Avoid writing papers that will bore your teachers. Even if you don't want to put more work into the researching and crafting of your paper, the simple step of choosing your topic wisely can make a difference in your grade. Don't write a paper on the same subject as half of your classmates. Teachers don't actually enjoy reading hundreds of papers on the exact same thing so break up the monotony of grading for them. Put them in a better mood while reading your paper simply by choosing an unexpected topic. You might get a better grade than you would for a paper you put the same amount of effort into, but which bored the teacher. Learn how to play into what your teachers want from you, and you'll get far in their class without having to put in extra work. Does your teacher want students to question assumptions? Use your one question for the day to play devil's advocate with something the teacher said, so they think you're using your critical thinking skills. Think of something your teacher has argued, and then argue the opposite stance in your paper. Does your teacher love the sound of their own voice? Do they always have to be right? Then parrot their ideas back to them in your papers.

article: A quick way to check the authenticity of a Samsung J7 is to check its IMEI in an IMEI-checking website. There are a few different ways you can find the number: Dial *#06# from the J7. As soon as you enter the final #, the IMEI will appear on the screen (it will say "IMEI" just above the number). Look for the IMEI on the packaging, or under the battery. You'll have to slide the back cover from the J7 to access the battery. If you're buying a J7 online, ask the seller (if you're buying online) to give you the number. You don't need a user account or password to use this tooljust type the IMEI into the blank. Now you'll see a bunch of information about your phone. You should see the word "Samsung" next to "Brand." If you don't, the phone is not a legitimate Samsung product.

Write an article based on this "Keep your introduction simple. Be confident. Refrain from bragging. Share your anxieties or discomforts. Listen. Think the best about the other person."
article:
Introduce yourself by name. Unless any further info is needed immediately, leave everything else unmentioned. Remember: unlike a job interview, there's no rush here to advertise all of your best qualities right up front. Allow the other person to learn about you organically, through a give-and-take conversation. If the situation calls for it, add a relevant fact to further identify yourself when you first meet, like: "Hi, I'm ___, the birthday boy's best friend." "Hi, I'm ___. Your daughter's in the same class as my son." "Hi, I'm ___. Your brother and I work in the same office." Impress people by not worrying about whether or not you're impressing them. Stay true to yourself instead. Of course, we all have different sides to ourselves, so be the "you" that's most appropriate to the situation. For example: If you're meeting a new study-partner, keep the focus on your schoolwork and school-life in general. If you're meeting people for the first time after moving to a new area, play up your role as the recent transplant experiencing culture shock. If a mutual friend has invited you (as well as a bunch of other friends of theirs who are die-hard fans) to a sports game that you're unfamiliar with, stay true to your outsider status instead of pretending to be an expert. Feel free to talk about things in your life that you're proud of if the conversation turns that way, but keep it in check. Earn the other person's respect with your actions in the here and now instead of demanding it by talking about all the things you're achieved in the past. Prove to them that you're confident of your own self-worth and don't need other people's admiration to bolster it. If the conversation turns to your job, tell them where you work and maybe a very general description of what you do, while leaving any fancy job titles unmentioned. If they recognize you as an All-State athlete, play down your own accomplishment and credit your team and/or coach for making it at all possible. If someone else mentions how you rushed into a burning building last week to save a pet cat, show or feign embarrassment and then switch topics rather than gloat over your own bravery. If you find yourself uncomfortable for whatever reason, mention the fact lightly. Show your self-confidence by freely admitting that you're not perfect. Make the other person more comfortable by showing them that they're free to do the same. This way you're more likely to take command of the situation instead of being at its mercy. If you have trouble remembering names (especially if you're being introduced to many people at once), fess up and apologize that you'll probably forget them by the end of the night. If they know this, they're more likely to repeat their names for your benefit later on. If you're uncomfortable at large parties or gatherings, say as much if it's crimping your style. Let the other person know that your best self is better seen in more intimate settings. If you're on a first date and haven't dated for a while (or at all), share this with your date. Assure them that any odd behavior on your part is due to a lack of experience, and not a reflection on them personally. Build a real conversation between yourselves instead of just talking at each other. When they tell you something, respond directly to their comment. If you have a personal story that's relevant to what they've said, be sure to tell it in a way that clearly shows your story is a response, and not just an opportunity to switch subjects and talk about yourself. Ask follow-up questions when they tell their own stories to show that they have your interest. "I never thought of it that way. I'll have to watch that movie again with that fan theory in mind." "That sounds like a pretty stressful vacation. Would you go back there again if you had the chance?" "The same thing happened to me once, or almost the same thing. Only in my case ..." Ensure that you'll make a good impression by persuading them that they've done the same with you. Don't undermine your own introduction by judging theirs unfairly. Assume they mean the best, even when they make a faux-pas. Always give people the benefit of the doubt until they give you a very real reason not to.
