You really need to learn how to experience the joy of writing papers, which are much more exciting than those stupid math problems. I don't really care about writing papers. I have a high A in English, but I have around a 91 in Precalc. I missed math yesterday, so that didn't help when we learned new material. All the more reason to un-confuse yourself. Is your English class really easy?

Lots of work, lots to know. The teacher's big on grammar, and, since I do fairly well with grammar, I'm fine. Many kids have low averages though.

Hmmm....sounds like an English teacher I could get behind. My English teacher in high school had us writing 3-4 page papers daily by the end of our senior year. He also told a lot of good stories, even if half of them weren't true. My favorite instance of this is when he claimed that he made it halfway across the Ohio River underwater.

In my English class, along with most of my classes, there are 2 or 3 A's out of 20 to 30 kids.

That's quite sad really. I managed to mantain an A average in all my English classes in high school. Senior year though it almost slipped to a B because my English teacher didn't like me as much anymore for some reason. Granted I never did anything to get him to like or dislike me. I can't stand people who suck up to teachers.

school sucks

Last year I got straight A's. This year, so far I have straight A's. Unfortunately, my GPA will go down because I'm taking US History 1 as an A-level class instead of AP, which counts as a B in AP. Nobody at my school has ever gotten an A in US History 1AP and only a few have gotten B's, so I decided to take the class a level lower.

I was in school until I was 27.  I think that's quite enough for one life.

edit:  it was actually 28.

Good luck with that. I'm in 10th as well. I hope that when I get to college I'll meet reincarnations of Henry Cow members and form a neo-RIO band.
