I need to get my grade up in an Honors class?

I have an 88.75 in my Honors Geometry class. In this class, a worksheet is given and you teach your self using a software called Geometers Sketchpad. The only homework we get is a Problem set due every week, which is 20 points. His tests and quizzes are tricks and sometimes he puts stuff on there we haven't learned yet. Assessment is worth 50% of the grade, and in total for assessment I have 26/31, putting it at a C+. I normally get perfects on Problem sets, but not this quarter. In our school a 92.5% is the lowest A you can possibly have. I understand everything. I'm just not getting good grades this quarter. Last quarter, I had a 98.87 in the class. Is there any studying tips or something?

    Ouch, you guys go buy the 7% increments....

    If your tests and quizzes are so heavily weighted, I would suggest focusing on that category since it pretty much makes or breaks your grade if you don't do well. Also, when you study for your test and quizzes, if they are tricks read ahead a little bit in your textbook, and DO the problems. You don't read math, you do math.
