My other half recently received a free PDF copy of the study guide “Anyone Can Get An A+” by Geetanjali Mukherjee.
Here is the book blurb.
Do you wish you could get better grades? Do you struggle with certain subjects and believe that maybe you’re not cut out for them? Do you want to spend less time studying and still get good grades? Maybe you think that some subjects are just not for you. Maybe you don’t like to study, because you secretly believe that you just don’t have what it takes, so why bother? Maybe you are a parent, worrying about your child’s grades, worrying whether they will be able to qualify for the opportunities you want for them.
Studying for tests and exams can be stressful, not just for students, but also for teachers and parents. Grades in school exams and standardized tests can seem to determine your entire future, and yet many students are not able to get the grades they think they need to succeed.
This book draws on research from the fields of psychology and neuroscience, and gives you practical advice that you can implement right away, to overcome procrastination, make the most of your study time and improve your grades significantly.
Anyone Can Get An A+ contains 39 tips on various aspects of studying and preparing for exams. In this book, you will learn:
How best to prepare for exams
What is the top mistake most students make when doing exam preparation and how to avoid it
How to overcome procrastination and use your study time wisely
How to break down larger assignments into smaller chunks
How to use small segments of time effectively
How to get help to understand difficult material
And this is what my other half had to say about Anyone Can Get An A+. This is an easy to read book with nice use of tips. There are some very good insights:
– rewards for doing what you planned
– daily / weekly plans that have fun built in
– concentrating on your weaknesses
It is the best book I’ve read in this area. However I must add that it is aimed more at the US than the UK with jargon such as GPA – grade point average.
Anyone Can Get An A+ is on Amazon, currently priced at £8.99 in paperback. Also available for Kindle.
Geetanjali Mukherjee has a blog here, where you can find out about her other books.
Watch out for a giveaway of one of Geetanjali’s books on my blog later in the year.

This sounds incredibly helpful. There are subjects I’ve never taken to for various reasons and in which I could really do with improving my confidence. Thanks for the review.

It does bug me when books are primarily aimed at the US, that being said it does sound like a rather handy book to look through. Thanks for sharing with #ReadWithMe
