I’m taking 1 ap class and 3 honors classes his year as a freshman in HS. I have to spend 3-4 hours on homework EVERY night ( 1/10 days I’ll have less). I see people in IB, or with 4-5 AP classes that still have time for activities and volunteering, how do they keep up with that stuff? I do want to get involved sometime next year (sooner the better) but I’ll be taking an even more APs next year. I try to train myself to do homework faster, but the amount I am getting is too much, how do I even take multiple APs if I can’t even handle 3 honors and 1 AP
I would highly recommend the book by Cal Newport: “How To Become a Straight-A Student:
The Unconventional Strategies Real College Students Use to Score High While Studying Less”
It will help you with time management and how to be more efficient.
Thanks for the suggestion I’ll check it out
