Here's how players can ace all the exams and answer every classroom question correctly in Persona 5 Royal.
If newcomers to Persona 5 Royal want to get as many Confidants maxed out in their first playthrough, they'll want to keep their Social Stats up. Some of these stats are harder to grab points for than others, but thankfully that's not the case for the Knowledge Social Stat. During the protagonist's daily life, he'll have to live as an honest student which means answering classroom questions and doing well on those exams.
In class, the protagonist's classroom teacher will occasionally ask him or Ann Takamaki to answer a question. There are at least several questions per month with four exam periods spread out over the school year in Persona 5 Royal. Answering things correctly gives one point towards Knowledge. Helping Ann figure out the right answer in class will also give players points towards her Confidant, so make sure to help out.

May marks the first appearance of exams in Persona 5 Royal. These usually cover four in-game days. During this time, Joker will be unable to meet with his Confidants, go to Mementos, etc. On top of that, Joker's Evening time will be locked out too, blocking off Evening-only Confidants (like Sojiro) and other Evening-exclusive activities.
Getting a question correct during an exam won't give Joker any Knowledge points. However, getting high grades will give Charm points when exam results are posted.

Since summer break is in August for Japanese students, there won't be any class or testing for a whole month. This also means the school will be closed off. So, if players are on Rank 8 for Kawakami, they won't be able to get the Mementos request until after August because it requires the use of the school.
Other Confidants like Hifumi and Kasumi will be unavailable during August because of the Hawaii trip, so use time wisely for this month.
