Who else hates group projects?

<p>I enjoy group projects when everyone else is just as intelligent and motivated as I am. So in Honors/AP classes this works out fine. But when it is in a Regular level class, (like Health) where most of the projects are, then it is absolutely horrible. Everyone is far more interested in talking about their plans for Friday night than getting a good grade. And everyone is (sorry, it has to be said) dumb. It drives me crazy! I’d just wish the teacher would give one of the ridiculously easy tests so I didn’t have to put up with all that b.s. </p>

<p>Also, if there’s art involved, then I hate it too.</p>

<p>I’d have to say group projects are alright. I’m in mainly Honors/AP courses, so most of the kids actually care about their schoolwork and will do their part. However, even knowing that I still fret and worry that they won’t do what they have to do “properly”. I’d much rather do a project by myself, and then I know that I’m the only person who will affect my grade, not a random peer of mine…</p>
