Is studying late in the night good or bad? Also, will extra-curricular activities affect my academics during examinations?

I’m in Class VII. I prepare for my examinations at the last-minute or just a day before. Sometimes I also take up extra-curricular activities late in the night. My parents scold me when I do this, especially because I often end up going to school late. Is studying late in the night good or bad? Also, will extra-curricular activities affect my academics during examinations?

Preparation for examinations or any other activity at last-minute causes a lot of physical and mental stress. It is desirable to plan your activity ahead to avoid such situations. Also every student has a study time that works well for them. What is very important is to not compromise on your sleep and activities. Do not procrastinate activities that will affect your performance. Extra-curricular activities are good for you because they help you relax and also acquire new skills. So, do plan your activities to stay focused, especially during examinations. We all learn from our mistakes and it is good to learn healthy practices.
