1. I can answer the second one.

If a student works on another class's work and ends up needing help, then I might not be able to help her. It makes the most sense to work on the work for the class you're sitting in because you have the teacher right there for help. If you think you have it but waste your time in class and later need help, it can make for a cranky teacher and a stressed-out kid.

As for last-minute studying, I disagree. Studying all along is the best option. Asking oneself potential questions the night before seems to be the most helpful for my students.
