If earning higher grades is important to you, you are likely to study more. (True or False)

This question can be argued on both sides.

It is true in the sense that you have a motivation to study hard when you have set up a goal for yourself. Unless you already have achieved those goals, you eill have a motivation to study hard.

This can be majorly false. Speaking from personal experiences, I only study hard when I have a A in a class and I want to get it up to an A + Once I have all A + (or mostly) I try to maintain it with minimal efforts (I don't recommend this). I think setting your goals that low can never get you motivated towards studying. The desire to get higher grades may only affect your daily homework doing skills, but I haven't noticed myself studying more just by setting a grade goal.

You can increase your studying by a greater motivation of making changes to the world like great minds did.

You are more likely to study more because you have to study well to get an A + on a test. You can't wake up and take the test and hope for luck
