<p>Who else studies like mad hard for classes just for like a B? While some people can just sit there and not study or study for like 2 hours and get like an A+?</p>

<p>I hate that, I work my ass off and I study every waking moment I have for AP BIO, because the rest of my days I have work. Like every test I've gotten like 70's to low 80's and I made it barely through the first marking period ending with a 81 (which I am happy to have I thought for sure i would get a C or something), but it still annoys me that I dedicate whatever is left of my life after work and friends/family and I end up with such an average grade. There are kids in my class who just sit there and they study like 1 or 2 hours before, they don't take notes (i take like notes notes upon more notes and notes) and they get like 90's on tests/quizzes.</p>

<p>I know that feeling! It's so frustrating! I can study as hard as I could, but then just bomb a test. People have come up to me and asked me why I was working harder than they were and yet getting average grades! ...! Oh, well...</p>

<p>sorry, i study for an hour and get an A. It's all a matter of how you're brain absorbs information, and also how to procrastinate well: which homework assignments to do, what parts to study that are more difficult, etc. etc.</p>
