<p>For all the current juniors . . .
How are you doing during what's called the "hardest year of high school", and is also the one that matters most for college apps?</p>
<p>I have a major project/event every week for the next 5 weeks, things like competition deadlines etc . . that are actually a huge deal. Oh, and I'm taking the SATs on December 5. Fun.</p>
<p>It’s treating me alright I guess. I got a 3.9 first quarter, and hopefully second quarter will be at least that. If I can just get in to Hamilton College already, my stress will be over!</p>
<p>I know how you feel. 5 APs (and 7 AP tests) but my hardest class is Spanish.</p>
<p>Strangely, it’s definitely been the easiest year of high school so far for me.</p>
<p>it sucks, my classes arent that hard, but compared to last year, my amount of free time is non existent, i just want to be a senior and slack off</p>
<p>Things are going okay. It’s all crazy hectic, but I’m somehow managing. I went from 4th in the class to 2nd, which is pretty cool.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Senior year ≠ slack off.</p>
<p>ap calc is ****ing on my gpa…</p>
<p>AP Calc is raising my GPA… Painting, on the other hand…</p>
<p>Would be about as easy if it weren’t for AP english. Chem, physics, and APUSH is a breeze.</p>
<p>All of my grades have died (except French for hopefully obvious reasons? And orchestra). They always go up in the end though. -prayer-</p>
<p>Better than sophomore year by far.</p>
<p>Pre-Calc…yes pre-calc :(, and my English Teacher grades papers like crazy. Aren’t the SATs Dec. 4th?</p>
<p>^Yep, December 4th. I’ll be taking it too that day.</p>
<p>I’m stressed as hell. Classes have gotten really hard (AP Macro, APUSH, AP Lit, Honors French 4, Physics, and alg.2). Work is piled on and my school is not an institution of sympathy.</p>
<p>@LostInCommunity - same here</p>
<p>It’s so frustrating. One of my teachers is really disorganized so I don’t know what I’m supposed to be doing. And I’m slightly unmotivated right now.</p>
<p>JANUARY SAT</p>
<p>But December ACT. I accidentally cut myself on my prep book. I think this means something.</p>
<p>Poetry unit in English is hell.</p>
<p>Calculating Uncertainties in IB Chemistry is hell.</p>
<p>IB is hell.</p>
<p>APES is kicking my ass. You heard me right; AP ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE (. So much work… I really cannot believe how much work she gives us. It’s ridiculous. I expect to be up until maybe 1 AM doing crap for this class, and will work for another 5 hours tomorrow while simultaneously going to the HP7P1 midnight premiere.</p>
<p>All the other classes are alright. Strangely enough, I’m doing better in APUSH (89) and AP Lang (95) more than flippin’ MATH III (86), which is regular but smooshed into a semester class. </p>
<p>AP French is my lowest grade (82), but it’s expected. And IDGAF about Ceramics
I have all next week off, and I can’t wait.</p>
