<p>For all you pro's: how do you do everything?
I'm going to have 3 APs and should be working to get some money for college. Plus, I have a horse and I show her quite a bit. How do I juggle that, along with friends (I'm not a party girl, but I like hanging out with them and being there if they need me), and a boyfriend who will be a freshmen in college next year?
So, how do all you pro's do it?</p>
<p>Two things:</p>
<p>-organization
-being realistic</p>
<p>Plan EVERYTHING. Write everything down in an agenda book, even if it's something you think you'll remember. Schedule in time even for hanging out with your friends. It sounds obsessive but the most productive people are people who set their own limits- they still have fun, but they know when to stop. Also, don't overreach. If you're being organized, sticking to your plans, and you still are exhausted, then quit a few things.</p>
<p>Remember... Do NOT procrastinate!!!!! You can find time to do it all as long as you budget your time and don't wait until the last minute to do everything.</p>
<p>I so agree with phemenyst. Procrastination will KILL you in the end.</p>
<p>uh huh...I need to rid myself of the procrastination queen title...haha.
thanks :)</p>
<p>i have 5 aps. it's all good. i had 5 junior year too, plus 3 varsity sports, club sport year round, clubs, and a social life</p>
<p>here, i copied this from another thread that i just replied to::</p>
<p>statistics is my easiest one and that takes up a lot of time with homework. calculus .. it's not so much the quantity of work as it is the quality of the work. it's more independent.. humanities (preparation for the english literature exam) is split into literature, art/music, and philosophy. art&music we just have an "artistic expression" at the end of the marking period that are usually impossible. literature, you write 3 papers. philosophy you usually have a "philosophical exercise" at the end of the MP (aka BS). and then we have a seminar grade (this MP i'm in 'Russian Composers of the 19th Century) with groups that you're supposed to work on for the whole marking period, but of course we leave it off till the last minute. so humanities in my school, all the work is bombarded on you within a span of 2-3 weeks. The rest of the MP you have no work but reading, like college. Economics we have no work, nor government, just random debates or papers that are usually pretty straightforward. Honestly, on the average day I don't have much homework, just at the end of the MP we have kids on suicide watch .. lol. Hope that helps</p>
