Oof
Well, what's on my mind? To be exact... about 7 subjects all coming from the same place, school. I can handle school, don't get me wrong, but I'm taking multiple AP classes this year and it's been very stressful. I've been trying my best to keep up in all my classes, but most of my grades are borderline. I'm talking anywhere from an 89-91%. For those of you who are saying, "Pshhhh, those are super high grades!" Well, not to my parents. The thing that is stressing me out though is finals. I've never had so many borderline grades before finals week, which means that I have to study for EVERY single final. You know how sometimes you have multiple tasks to tackle, but you prioritize your most important? Yeah, that's usually what I do. There's mainly really only 3-4 classes that I actually have to worry about on any given semester, but not this time. I have 5-6 classes that I'm concerned with. The outcome can't be predicted and I'm stressing out. I don't know how much to study, what to study, or how to study. I'm basically clueless.
The classes I'm mainly concerced for are AP Literature, AP Physics, and AP Calculus, but that's not even where I can focus all of my energy because all the other classes are threatening to drop just as fast. Sometimes I wish teachers would just give you an A if you tried your best, but I know that a method like that isn't realistic in the real world. Usually I enjoy situations like this, the sense of accomplishment you'll feel after getting everything done! But this time there is so much on the line, like reporting to colleges your scores and showing them that you're keeping up your grades. Especially since so many kids now are A students, getting a single B would lower my profile in the long run in the eyes of a college selector. It's rough sometimes! But as always, I'm up for the challenge... just slightly more stressed.
