[quote="[DAS REICH] Blitz":59d49]Wow, don't complain about homework. You guys do not know hell until you see what i have.

I have 6 classes everyday.
In Honors Biology, we have to read 10 pages everynight. Every two weeks we have a lab (and afters a 5 page lab report). Every week, we have a test on the previous weeks chapters. And once in a while we have pop quizzes.
In AP US History, we have a quiz everyday on the previous nights reading (5-6 page stuff with 10 questions per quiz). Every month we have an AP style test.
In English, we read 30 pages per night in books like A Tale of Two Cities, MacBeth, Catcher in the Rye, etc. A paper and a test for each book (we read 8 books through the year).
In Honors French, we have a test every two weeks, with a minimum of 50 new vocabulary words. We also get graded on class particpation, so doing the homework is essential. Its difficult because its not English, and you essentially have to fully understand what yoru doing so you can get a good grade.
In Honors Algebra 2, we have a test every 3 weeks, and a graded homework assingment daily. And with a teacher as shitty as mine, its hard to understand this stuff.
In Art, you fuck around, but you have at least one piece of art work done per week.

I get to school at 8 am, and because athletics/clubs are required, you really don't leave until 6 pm. So, after eating, showering, etc., I don't start my homework until 7 pm at the earliest. At the earliest though, if i gave 100% effort for every class, i would finish around 12 am. If i had a test though, it would be probably later. And for those who complain about weekend homework, I probably spend an upwords of 7+ hours per weekend just on homework (excluding studying and papers). So far, the worst occasion this year was on Columbus day weekend, when i had 3 test and 2 papers for the next week. Worked from 9 am-11 pm every day for the entire 3-day weekend.

I'm in highschool too oOo: . plzdie:[/quote:59d49]
haha please....

I work 16.5 hours a week (im in highschool so i dont wanna get "I work 50 hours a week" from you full-timers). I read 2 chapters from my AP English text book, a chapter from my psych text book, text pages for AP calc, usually APES, and not to mention novels we are reading in AP English. Almost every night. From September to November, we read 8 novels. Dont complain about 10 pages a night.

My AP Bio class, I had to write 10 page bio labs, and a 15 page (single spaced) Animal project describing EACH phylum of invertebrates and vertebrates.

and yes, im a senior...i shouldnt be doing this.
