Homework load?

<p>Here’s the NYTimes article limabeans was talking about: [Vital</a> Signs - Afternoon Naps Can Increase Ability to Learn, Study Suggests - NYTimes.com](<a href=“http://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/23/health/research/23beha.html?scp=1&sq=nap&st=cse]Vital”>http://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/23/health/research/23beha.html?scp=1&sq=nap&st=cse)</p>

<p>Yeah, as a freshman, that’s a lot!
But for your class schedule, I don’t know. I had two AP courses and two honors last year, and I had about 5 hours of homework per night. Granted, I didn’t always do it all, but if I had, that’s how much I would have had. Haha :P</p>

<p>Millancad “I study for about three hours for physics (still fail every test), 30 minutes for chem (still ace every test)” YOU HAVE MY BRAIN! Thank goodness I have a chem test tomorrow and not physics XD</p>

There was a study recently, reported in the NYTimes, that said a 90 minute nap is actually very helpful and good for your memory.

</p>

<p>I would enjoy having two sleeping sessions per day but, as a high school student, I cannot integrate that into my current schedule.</p>

wow, soccer, your high school must not be very rigorous if that’s all the homework you do! In my kids’ hs, that’s the amount of work that would be a minimum for kids NOT in any advanced courses!!

</p>

<p>You people are nuts. I had 1-2 hours of homework tops, and I complained about it.</p>

<p>EDIT: That sounded weird. I complained about the quality (or lack thereof), not necessarily the quantity.</p>

<p>Like I said, twenty minute naps are awesome. And managable…if you have enough time to be on CC, you have enough time for a twenty minute nap. And I think you’ll find that with a nap, you’re better able to focus on your work, getting it done faster (and better).</p>

<p>jesus… i get to bed at like 12:30 on GOOD nights. Many nights it’s closer to 2:00 or 3:00.
yea, I pretty much get zero sleep during the week. haha.
but seriously do you have no ECs or anything? like someone said earlier you must get home and like immediatly start working or something to get to bed that early. </p>

<p>…im jealous.</p>

<p>I just went to bed at 12 and woke up at 4:30. The saddest part is, I don’t even have to set an alarm to do that anymore. Sometimes, it even happens on the weekends. I am so tired <em>sobs</em></p>

<p>I can’t nap though. I tried to take a nap on Friday (went to sleep at 4-ish) and slept until 7 in the morning. Which always happens.</p>
