      raise for Anyone Can Get An A+

      Ms. Mukherjee presents a detailed roadmap for how to do superior work in school. Her thesis is that what makes for an outstanding student is not native ability but the ability to study effectively...I can say with confidence that most of the advice given in this book is sound and, if followed, will increase a student's chances of doing extremely well in a course...The book is written in an easy to understand fashion, provides quite a few practical examples, and does not contain a lot of fluff. It's a book that will be of benefit to any student."

      Professor Doug Erlandson, Amazon Top 50 Reviewer

      This book is the perfect go-to source for all students...loaded with suggestions for students who are looking to score better...I'd recommend this book to anyone who thinks that getting good grades is a huge mountain to climb. Yes, it isn't easy, but with a plan you can get there! This book proves that. It's a must-read for all students!

      The Page-Hungry Bookworm

      I highly recommend Anyone Can Get an A+ to every college student and any secondary student thinking about higher education.

      McNeil's Reviews

      I now feel a deep sense of hope that Geetanjali Mukherjee's book can help countless children, teenagers, parents and teachers through a common sense body of work…I was one of those people who also felt very isolated with my dyslexic struggles. I am thankful today with the release of this book that Geetanjali Mukherjee is making a stand for people around the world living with severe learning difficulties like myself. Geetanjali and I understand only too well that you can never underestimate an underdog - with determination.

      Dr. Naoisé O'Reilly, Educationalist, Scientist and Personality Theory Researcher

      Geetanjali's book would be very helpful for a struggling student desiring to improve grades to a B or an A...Geetanjali covers the essential elements of good study habits with an emphasis on positivity, setting goals, avoiding distractions and segmenting complicated projects into smaller snippets.

      Dr. Joseph S. Maresca, Amazon Top 1000 Reviewer, Hall of Fame

      Introduction

      I wrote this book for every student who has ever said to themselves, I can't do this; I'm not good at ___; I am too stupid to learn. This book is for those students who feel that they just can't understand certain subjects, or who have given up even before they have begun, resigning themselves to poor grades, because they think that somehow they aren’t smart enough to do as well as their classmates.

      As a student, I have been through periods when I struggled for months and years, not really understanding the material, getting poor grades despite working hard to do well in school and feeling stressed and overwhelmed by the pressure to do well in a system where grades are everything. Through hard work and effort, I changed how my teachers and fellow students perceived me and how I perceived myself. I went from being an average student barely scraping by in several subjects, to acing my exams in high school, getting the highest grades in most of my classes and receiving admission to prestigious universities for higher education. The lessons I write about in the first book Anyone Can Get An A+ and this companion workbook stem from my first-hand experience augmented by extensive research into the study techniques that best complement our natural learning rhythms. An avid student of psychology and cutting-edge research into the workings of the brain, I have tried to distil the knowledge I gained into short, easily digestible tips that students can begin to implement right away.

      Although the lessons and advice in this book
