<p>...and still manages to get the highest scores?</p>
<p>This is annoying me so much. There's this guy in many of my AP classes who would go to class just to sleep, but still manages to get a perfect/ near-perfect score every single time.</p>
<p>It's not like he's cheating either, because on state-wide competitions he would still be able to get the highest scores.</p>
<p>It makes me so jealous...</p>
<p>Umm... he surely sleeps in class because either he already knows the material or he's just fine reading in the textbook. Anyway, that's why I always do something else in class... I found I have way better scores if I just read ahead of everyone in my class and then come up with my own study guide. And I have tons of classes where we don't actually learn anything so..</p>
<p>PS- I don't actually sleep in class, I just do something else (like thinking, talking, writing, reading upcoming chapters- that kind of thing). I'm in the back and my teachers know me fairly well, so they don't mind.</p>
<p>Um... you get kicked out of my school if you sleep in class. However, the distance learning students here request to get out of class for online classes a lot. (Online classes are nice in that you don't have to waste time.)</p>
<p>in my language arts class, ap stat class, and ap us history class this year there was not a single day where i didnt sleep. i would have read, but if i stayed awake i would be forced to participate so i just slept instead. obviously all As</p>
<p>I make other people jealous, and now they don't have to deal with me for valedictorian. I'm getting out of that joke of a private school, get into a homeschool network (legally considered a private school), and going to community college for my senior year.</p>
<p>Maybe I don't have to go to sleep in class after all.</p>
<p>He spends all night studying in his room and sleeps during class to trick you guys. He wants to make you feel stupid and be more superior, so don't let him fool you.</p>
<p>Don't be fooled by the guile of the "sleeping" guy. I can almost guarantee you that he studies the material at home.</p>
<p>I sleep in boring classes, which was pretty much 5/6 of them this year. I don't sleep and get good scores, but it's just because (for me at least) paying attention the first 10 minutes is enough to grasp all important information and the other 40 or so is plain pointless rambling that does nothing. Then, I sleep. </p>
<p>Also yeah if I really didn't understand something I would teach myself in the book the day before the test, so he probably studies on his own.</p>
<p>Lmao, that reminds me of a good friend of mine used to sleep during lectures in Physics class. He would literally go to sleep, and the teacher would be teaching a new lesson for a following quiz or test the next day. I really don't exactly know how he does it, but he mananged to aced every single assignment/test/quiz. </p>
<p>good times. lol</p>
<p>He probably had selective hearing. It happens to me a lot in class. I tune out the sounds around me to do my things but I still listen to the teacher and what's important. It's like my brain keeps all the important material, it's actually pretty freaky... :) But it works....</p>
<p>I manage to read half the textbook within the first few weeks, where we don't learn much. I write down the assignments and I'm probably doing homework for 5th period during class.</p>
<p>I always thought sleeping in class was for slackers...until APUSH. I would normally read the material ahead of time, but often the teacher felt the need to read the book to us in lectures. Being it was my last period of the day, I would often doze off. She would tease us saying that we'd fail the chapter exam because what she was regurgitating was oh-so important, but guess who always got some of the highest scores... This is also a teacher that believed that if you weren't taking lots of notes you'd fail too.</p>
<p>He (I say "he" because I only know one or two girls who sleep in class) may study at home, but he probably stays up late at night gaming.</p>
<p>^ have you been stalking me?</p>
<p>also if I'm not sleeping I'm doing hw from another class, which is very productive as you can just go home and bust out on tv/computer and other stuff, or just sleep/relax.</p>
<p>yes, me. I'm either sleeping or doing the homework that's due next period. My combination of tiredness and procrastination should make for bad grades. Somehow I ended up with 4 A+'s, 3 A's, 1 A-. It wasn't that bad.</p>
<p>I'm not the person who sleeps but I constantly doodle elaborate line art in class but I get high marks</p>
<p>some teachers have called my house for it and had a chat with my parents</p>
<p>they thought she was absolutely ridiculous for calling to say I was "coloring" in her class but I still got high marks
teachers should only interfere if it affects your studies</p>
<p>Yeah, I know someone who sleeps through class and has a 4-0. Not to mention, he got into JHU BME program and doesn't even really know what BME is...</p>
<p>This past year I slept almost every day in my Trig class and sometimes my AP Stats class. I'm valedictorian though >_> I guess the OP hates me.</p>
<p>^
lol no. Just really really jealous. I fell asleep once and bombed my next quiz.</p>
