    So, basically, for me, school is just a six-hour prison. I liked it in third grade, but now... 7th Grade.. ITS HELL.

    Well, school... it causes stress and pressure. You feel so freaking caught up with your homework pile that you pretty much drown in that you have no time to chill on Minecraft, on your bed, or read a book. Or watch Netflix! I'd like to say to anyone who thinks homework isn't a bad thing, I know it isn't! Its learning at home, and I understand that! But, do teachers have to give us SO MUCH? It actually gets old. I actually think school makes me insane. Must be why I'm so emo...

    So, what does school do to you?

    This video sums my thoughts up:

    The system is alright but it needs changing..like, there are countless people who get overly stressed, overly anxious because of school to the point where it's harmful to ones health.I've had countless times where my anxiety levels have gone up so high that I've almost had a panic attack just because I was worried about a test I thought I didn't study enough for. I've had nights where I couldn't sleep, and due to that I had to go through the school day with only a few hours of sleep.
    School overall is good but it really..really has its downsides that are just really painful.

    School's alright for me. I'm able to choose the classes that are fun to me while being able to meet requirements to graduate/get into good universities.

    Btw, for you middle-schoolers, just make it through these 1-3 years, and you'll be in high school heaven. Compared to middle school, high school is like a 5-star hotel and middle school is like a 2.5-star hotel. It works, but it's not comfortable.

    If you're overwhelmed in 7th grade, I don't think you're well equipped to deal with IB. IB is fucking brutal, it's deadline after deadline, reflection after reflection, experiment after experiment. IB is one of the toughest syllabi in the world, with exams, Internal Assessments for every subject, CAS, TOK, and Extended Essay. It may sound impossible, but I am managing it, I got 30 points out of 30 in the first term. Dedication and hard work are the only things that will get you through school, do not give up, or else you will drown in work.

    I'm fine with school so far. Averaging decent grades and looking to get higher ones. I'm not really sociable so I tend to just stay in my own side doing my own thing.

    Try and organize your time better for things, it's a very important skill to have once you hit high school. Focus on an area of study you're interested in, such as accelerating your math or science classes if possible. Create good study habits, for high school and more importantly college. Now matter how many people do it, Netflix and procrastination is NOT the way to get anything done in this world. Success comes with effort.

    As to making it through grade school, focus mainly on sophomore and junior years of high school if you plan on college. But don't stress out so much, it will only be counter active. Like I said, you'll be a lot happier if you learn how to balance school and life. I can relate, never having time to do anything fun but it probably will be a fact of life, as my friends are always busy studying as well.

    School is okay, the only thing that's keeping me sane is socializing and talking to friends

    I recommend everybody watch this. Even if you have no interest in trying to change the school system, or you like the system. Just watch it anyway.

    Well, it is not school what makes me busy. It are the other things around me. Like work football and a social life....

    Middle school always sucks, it sucked for me

    High school is fun though, but it's only fun if you manage your time and work, study, don't procrastinate, and participate

    Look at me teaching the kiddies to stay in school I feel so old
