How do I earn As?
I've got one of these tools that makes weeding a joy.

That and a hula hoe for bark dust areas gets the job done.

No point in getting seen for a cracked rib. There is no cast or anything to help that heal. They will just say to take it easy and prescribe pain killers that can be purchased over the counter.

Most teachers hand out a syllabus that breaks down how the grading works. Spend more time in the areas that are worth a larger percentage of the grade. I was doing 3hrs of English homework every day once when I realized the busywork was only worth 10% of my grade. I eliminated that homework and still got a B.

Why do you want better grades? I'm not implying that you shouldn't want that, but I'd seriously ask myself if the high grades matter.
