Well, I took my Geometry exam and kicked its こし so yeah. The reason I haven't been on is I got grounded after getting an F in my AP Gov class. Geometry was surprisingly easy, like, if I was more patient, I could be a really good video game Graphic design artist. Anyway, I have freaking missed this place so much. How ya'll been

I don't get grounded for failing...
Then again, I did convince everyone around me I'm 何だよこれ！ (passed a class thanks to me repeating that). So... I cannot empathize at all.
Be sure to stick around the site more often. You still have big shoes to fill if you wanna replace me maknae.

Woot, finally completely done with my Sophmore year. This year SUCKED!!! Even though I met my current crush, found this site, and figured out my desired career path, I really loathed this school year. I miss middle school T_T
genetics being my favorite unit.-

The reason you probably hate school is because you actually care. This probably doesn't belong here, but since we're talking about you and school...
I, personally, care not of the meaningless HS system America offers- I do just enough to pass at bare minimum. A high GPA isn't my goal, its getting all the credits while still reserving energy for college. About 99% of all my friends are in college (Zup and like 3 other people aren't atm). All have told me how tiring it is. And those who get out of college tell me how even harder it gets after that. I don't see the point of trying to get all 90s in my class when all that matters is getting the credits and retaining the information given- if you're worried about colleges, then use that retained information to get high grades in tests, state exams, SATs, etc.
I know my method is unheard of (even a college recruiter looked at me and said "How do you even manage this?"), but it's the easiest method I can suggest for you if you're smart and lazy. Get the credits and information. Don't worry about GPA- that doesn't tell the person in all cases. An interview with a college recruiter can easily make them overlook that flaw.
Basically, what would you think if you say my score of 65s in my Global class but a 91 in my Regents (Finals) for the topic. "He's smart but lazy." Is usually the answer- in other words, that's a no. Now you can get rid of the lazy part through participation of other stuff, like Summer college prep classes, teaching classes, sports, etc. A big resume usually looks great. Now just get stuff to put in it and you're good. If you do alot of things outside of school, it could make it look like you're busy- but that's only appearance, that's not enough to fool them. Interviews and Essays are what you need for finishing blows.
Basically, what I do (and am suggesting) is:
Go ahead, slack off- just actually pay attention to the class and get the information. I'm not telling you to go ahead and be stupid. I'm telling you that you should listen more in silence and in the back. Stay invisible and take lots of notes. (I personally don't study notes, but that's due to my own philosophy on the idea of "studying". But I suggest you do so.)
Use that retained information to do 100% at the more important things like tests, essays, and finals. And don't forget it after- quiz yourself mentally constantly- always underestimate yourself! Always see yourself as weak and seek power!
Then make up a (real and not false) excuse for the lack of a high GPA. Just remember its not the only thing they look at. But don't go and fail classes because of this. 65's (Ds) are still considered passing and good. Try only enough to pass and don't waste your energy getting 90s on classes that will be completely useless to you when you get to college. I'm not telling you what those classes are. But there are classes that give you information that you will NEVER see in college. Ever.
So:
GPA (-)
Resume (+)
SAT's and ACT's (++)
Interviews (+)
Well written essays [assuming you can do those at a college level] (+)
More + than -.
Just be careful- because if you're planning on going to a school where a certain GPA is required, then you can forget about it if this is your plan.
