omg is anyone finding the work content we r given at school to be overboard?
like seriously, i have no life because of these stupid teachers, assignments and homework- it really is annoying that ive started to become lazy =[ i cbb studying anymore because when i look at what i have to revise i just lose all motivation and look for something to do as an excuse( which btw is really bad) or i just end up day dreaming !!!

No, I think the workload is just fine, so long as you don't get too bothered with it and just take every day as it comes :)

Agreed, if you study smart and hard then it wont dominate you life the the extent you are missing out on normal activities.

I cannot put with up my Chemistry homework. All the works are irrelevant crap (excuse my language).

Everything is fine, except Modern History, which is slowly sapping the energy and will out of me.

Still didn't get it changed?

I am fine with all my subjects (even with Chemistry!). I change my mind so frequently about subjects. :mad:

My teacher talked to me after class and was like making me feel guilty. "As a senior student you owe it to yourself to take charge of your own studies. Saying I'm bored of a subject is an unacceptable excuse. Also, it's too late to change subjects, so you'll just have to remain bored until the end of the Preliminary course". :angry:

I hate teachers like that. :(

Seriously, some of the teachers you get make you want to kill the subject immediately - even when it's actually very interesting.

Sometimes I feel that way too but maybe its because I spent ALOT of my time procrastinating (and I have a part time job).

But really, I don't get much homework (maybe thats cuz the school I go to is public and everyone complains when we get work)

The only subjects I'm really feeling overworked in is French :E I think I'd do way better if I didn't have the damn internet and I studied!!!!

I have gotten basicly no homework this year from any subject except english, and some note-taking from economics. :D I've got way too much free time. :D

Sometimes the workload is bearable but at other times i feel as though i am being bombarded all of a sudden with work that the teachers could have just as easily spread out over the previous weeks.

None of my teachers give out homework...or, at least, if they do, I don't do it and they don't care, so it all works out.
But assignments sometimes get the better of me...I had an English one due today and Maths C tomorrow (the pentagram one, which I only started today)
