This is insane

Everyday at school, I don't feel I'm studying anymore, it's more like surviving!
There is this constant competition for grades and my classmates are so freakin good at it.
My teachers are crazy and stupid, they teach almost nothing but they want us to research and find out everything else on our own.Every exam is like a nightmare, I swear.I am so tired, my grades have never been this low before and I really just want to explode.

OK, relax, go out rent a movie, or go on a shopping spree that usually relieves stress. For me its to sit at a takeaway for two hours straight chatting with mates about random stuff.

don't "rest". :P watch a funny video, go for a run, go make dinner, clean your room. Distract yourself. Resting .. doing nothing makes you go crazy.

I try to get some sleep whenever I have a chance. I can't rest for 30 minutes because then I get so upset thinking about how much I hate this, that I stop doing everything. Pretty much that is what's happening right now.

damn. that sounds like a stress. For me, what works is working in 30 minute intervals otherwise I crash and burn. So 30 minutes of research, 30 min break, 30 minute studying for a test, 30 minute break, 30 minutes back at the project etc.

Otherwise, it gets insane. Also, for tests, if it's like bio or something without math, it's best to read, put it in your own words, highlight key words about a certain topic in one color, and then just keep reading the key words and skim the pages. after a while, certain words trigger your memory.

Goodluck :) you can do this.

I wish it were that simple. I have a lot of homework therefore I can research and learn what they want me to learn, I am also working in 5 projects. I don't have time for a practice exam and my teachers won't explain things to me because that is "my" responsability, I have to reasearch and be ready for the exam all alone. I am not that smart and fast, I can't keep up with the rest of my classmates.

Yep, everyone steps up their game in grade 10+ , suddenly it's a race to university. Not going to lie, it's a LOT of pressure. maybe, you should take 2 days just do absolutely nothing except sleep, and then... get into serious mode and start studying your butt off. You can do, really . There's endless amounts of stuff on the internet to help, get practice exams go through them, and more than anything, talk to your teacher and get extra help from them and your friends who know stuff.

Why don't you research then? I'm assuming you've hit high school? Well, guess what? It's like that, so deal with it, it pretty much stays that way/gets harder from then on, you've got to find your own motivation as to why and how your going to continue school, if you want to that is.

But trust me, you don't want to drop out, you'll most probably end up a no-life...
