<p>I'm in an IB programme. My teachers are jerks.</p>
<p>I have 2 english papers (commentaries on a poet who i barely understand), 1 english presentation, and one outline for an IB external assessment paper due in the first 2 days of APs. We will not have covered the material for the commentaries until the day before the weekend I have to write them.
That's just one class
I have had so much work, primarily from english, that i have had zero opportunity to study for APs. </p>
<p>This upcoming weekend will likely be my only time to study before exams start.</p>
<p>I'm taking 7 IBs and APs combined. And an SAT II in may.
My first AP is in my worst subject.</p>
<p>I had, for all relevant purposes, nothing in the way of a spring break. And the ***** has not stopped hitting the fan since then.</p>
<p>Yeah, I’ve been putting off busy-work because of exams. Luckily my teachers understand enough to not assign exorbitant amounts of work at this time of the year. </p>
<p>Eh. It just means I have to stay up later to finish my homework.</p>
<p>That’s total bulls**t. Teachers are sometimes so ignorant of important stuff like AP’s. They’d rather you do useless stuff (i.e. busy work: poetry commentaries).</p>
<p>Since my school has so few students involved in APs, the teachers are still packing on the work because the majority doesn’t have any. And I thought being a high achieving student was a good thing. </p>
<p>I’ve had so little time to study. Within the next week I have a chapter’s worth of Chem notes to write, a Chem lab sheet to do, at least 3 APUSH workbooks to do, a book report for APUSH…and that’s just the stuff outside the norm. </p>
<p>I still have all my regular classwork and homework, plus I have Barron’s AP English, and PR APUSH to plow through along with a big packet of review work for APUSH to do…</p>
<p>…All in two weeks.</p>
<p>Last six weeks should be renamed the “Six weeks from Hell”…because I have AP exams, SOLs (VA standards), and then finals 4 weeks in a row… </p>
