Excuse me but I don’t know where you went to high school but I have to wake up at 5:45 to make the bus at 6:50 but I have to plant to be at the bus drop at 6:45 because I have had way to many drivers and they all came between 6:40 and 7:00 and we had to get to school by 7:40 but when those drivers got time at 7:00 they had to speed because it is a half hour bus route going all over my small town. I had one driver who was always running way too late that we had to drop a stop and those kids had to take a different bus

All I can say is this: I liked math before the alphabet got involved. I liked reading before I had to analyze countless texts. I liked history before arbitrary facts dominated the classroom. I liked science before the teacher talked about complex subjects at the speed of light. And hell, I even liked standardized tests before they decided my future.
I won't. When I was in High School, my Speech Teacher (my class was at 7:30 btw) ranted to our class about how dumb the school was because scientifically, teenagers should never be giving a speech before 9:00. My school understands some of this stuff is dumb, and luckily is taking steps to change it (too bad it was only after I left).
You should know how to do your taxes though if you have carried a job since before then. Laziness to learn and having your parents do it for you every time instead of figuring it out on your own.
i mean a lot of it is pretty essential to being a functioning member of society. the alternative is a bunch of idiots who don’t understand basic things like math or science (cough cough flat earthers)

@@giygas9305 It took me years to realize that the problem isn't bullying itself, the problem is schools punishing victims for standing up for themselves, which gives kids the impression that they're wrong for doing so. And then they wonder why so many school shootings happen.
Imma big dude. Pretty strong too but I don't like fighting too much. I was getting bullied by someone smaller than me so I gave him a good punch in the stomach and we both got called to the office. The principal told us both to stand up and since I was bigger he assumed I was the bully and got in big trouble until one of the bullies friends told the principal what was happening. But still, just thought it was messed up that I couldn't defend myself without everything being pinned on me. The kid still never got in half the trouble I was gonna be in and I barely got an apology from the principal.
Mom: “why are you so lazy?” High school me: goes to school for 8 hours. Goes to sports practice for 2.5 hours. Has 2+ hours worth of homework. Has a part time job on the weekends and offseason to make money for college.
"why are you in your phone" "do your homework" I was just at school working for eight hours give me time, I friends I have a social life let me live it for a bit
@@jimmythecacodemon2397 in schools in other countries, like England, homework doesn't really have an affect on your grade, there's no credit or anything, unless you're doing a subject that involves coursework. Then your work is sent to the exam board. And unless the homework is to learn necessary stuff that you didn't cover in class, it doesn't have much impact. So you don't get anything for doing your homework, but you might still get punished for not doing it.
Things like this are why I love being homeschooled. I can not get up that early, or I feel horrible all day. Public schools are absolutely sick and disgusting.
I’d like to see both sides of the table. When you’re in a public or private school, you get to build skills for teamwork and work with other people. But another thing, is that this might cause bullying and harassment.

College is 10x worse imo. The good thing is that your schedule is generally more flexible, but the load of studying, papers, seminars and everything else is heavier and the demand is greater. We literally skip classes to study because we dont have enough time. If you were sleep deprived in high school, just wait until college. We're probably from different countries so I don't know how it works there though.
I graduated High School last year 2020 in the height of the pandemic so I was EXTREMELY HAPPY. Though, college first year kicked my ass not gonna lie. For me it was like a high school part 2.😭💀But I must admit I like college better than High School and the atmosphere is slightly better as well.✨

@@AngelinniTortellini i don't ever recall him ever saying it was anyone's fault its just how he went about school and what right you got to tell someone how to live they life move on
@EXTREME i think that’s a problem with some people. i don’t see the point in studying something you won’t even need in your adulthood. if it’s for a test, sure. but other than that, i don’t see the point.
But it's not about "learning for what you will need in adulthood" essentially school is preparing you to have responsibilities and discipline and prepare you to think critically (for example math is kind of like mental excercise) sure school isnt perfect but it's not bad really
You dont need collage to be successful, thats what the school tells you because they and the collages get money from your $10,000 dollar debt. And to also brainwash you :)
@@jaguar2594 yeah that is true you really dont need college, but i'm just saying school isnt automatically bad because "you learn things that you wont need in life" i think if you believe that you're kind of missing the point

Is high school really that bad. I’m in 8th grade go to high school next year, I’m not looking forward to it if it’s gonna be even worse than middle school
In Texas where I live, we started high school with Hurricane Harvey and we’re ending it with a pandemic, so it’s the best worst sandwiches of our lives.
I remember the day we started learning about “IMAGINARY NUMBERS” in trigonometry. That was the point I truly realized 80 percent of high school, maybe even school in general is BULLSHIT.
Damn.. I'm glad our government suddenly said that subjects for the finals are more important than the rest at the time we were at that topic. Byeee math! I heard from my father that they are important. Like for radiology and stuff. Luckily I won't need them.
Elementary school is vital and some aspects of middle school can be important but Highschool needs to be changed completely Highschool should be about learning what to face after you graduate it should be about learning how to file taxes or how to balance your bank accounts they should teach us how to properly control our emotions all these things are much more vital then learning how to do fucking calculus or geometry
@@noriakikakyoin1423 I'm not sure how it is done where you are, but how it should be done is that highschool classes are not there to teach you how to do stuff. When you're in high school you are in the process of finding yourself through puberty so the curriculum is designed to teach you skills, not information. You develop skills through different processes which you might find insignificant but they are there to help your mind grow. Again this is how it SHOULD be. Sadly now a days many teachers don't give a shit and just ask you to memorize stuff and that's when learning fails to occur. An example of how skills can be taught is when learning IMAGINARY NUMBERS. Sure it might sound useless to someone who has no desire to follow a career in math, but just the fact that you can complete calculations using a number that is entirely abstract is enough to develop your brain to better understand abstract concepts, such as waves. As a teacher it reallya hurts to see so mamy young students focused on learning "useful" things such as taxes and what not. If you focus on developing your skills you can figure out all those thinga and more! If you are happy just learning to survive in the adult world, you won't be able to live in the real world.
This is one of my favorite things about my math teacher. She takes concepts we are learning and instead of unit things like bananas as a variable, she shows how they can be used in everyday scenarios, and how we can learn to invest better, find better deals, and even how to do taxes. I can tell already she is going to be super beneficial to me in the future.
I feel like if the school system taught us important stuff everyone would've finished school at 13. but what would happen after 13??since you are basically still a minor and not able to work??stay in school kids.
In an ideal world you finish school in 8th grade and then will have the option to enroll in college, that way you can at least have a bachelor's by the time you're of age
Us: Don't School: Don't U: blame S: blame U: me S: me U: for S: for U: defending S: defending U: myself. S: myself. U: Don't blame me for defending myself. S: Let's blame the victim for getting bullied!
I honestly never understood it either it must be easier to just blame both of them despite the situation then they act like the victim could have just come to them??? "Oh hey can you pause from beating me up? Gotta let a teacher know rq"
One time this one guy was choking my friend so I kicked him out of self defense and he let go of him grabbing his shin cause he was in pain and then I got in trouble for kicking even though I explained the situation to the principal who said I should have just told an adult when there were many adults watching this guy choke my friend
In my Sophomore year currently, and I am proud to report that I have successfully learned how to fall asleep in class while still being aware and conscious.
No wonder why since I graduated highschool I don’t wanna do anything and all I do is sleep. I’m tryna get back all the sleep I lost from that hell called highschool🤦🏽♂️
As a high school senior, this is TOO TRUE. Mostly all the stuff I learn is USELESS. I agree that high school should teach how to pay taxes and get a job! SO TRUE! My friends are so sleep deprived, they can’t even focus on their homework!!! (That’s why I go to sleep at 8:25 P.M.)
Being homeschooled since 6th grade taught me that. Didn't have a say in it, they just forced me to because I "wouldn't survive" without even bothering to try. Parents never make it easier, only ever harder.
@ó.ò I bring down the average because I hate being homeschooled, isolated from people for several years due to overbearing parents which leaves me with no friends, reduced social experience, reduced social activity, reduced social confidence, and even more issues that'd make this comment far too long? Try thinking before you comment. Just because I don't like homeschool doesn't mean I'm some kind of idiot. You only want to degrade me because you're most likely just looking to project own failure and idiocy onto someone else. If anything, you're the pathetic one for taking a comment that was complaining about homeschool for being a hell with nobody to be your friend and turning it into an argument about IQ. And if you aren't projecting your own pathetic failure of a life onto me for literally no reason? Then you're just a sad, pathetic little troll who has no life outside of being an ass on the internet thinking you're the most funny, charismatic and quirky person out there. Pathetic.

Study done by Harvard showed that we only use 3.5% of the stuff we learn in high school. School these days has become more about passing than learning.
Had a history teacher in my junior year who taught us about the stock market. Most useful thing I've learned in high school so far, one of the best teachers I ever had.
I don’t see the difference between learning about stocks and about a subject like science, you are acting like the stock market is essential to every American, which is untrue. I agree that the stock market is important to learn just like all the other subjects but I it isn’t as important as something like budgeting

I feel like we should learn a variety of things, but I feel like after middle school, we should be more focused on what we want to do, and exploring career paths
Personal finance is the most boring fucking subject I've studied. It's just common sense plastered with even more common sense. Hell, you can Google most of the shit already lol. Your very right
Kids always say “man I wish I could learn helpful things” but in reality, if they are forced to learn something they won’t want to, it’s just human nature. Imo school is great (yea I’m only a freshman but I take aps and all advanced classes, it’s not bad). The problem is, school only works if you got a certain mold of student. A lot of kids struggle learning through a book, or through lecture, but that’s how it works.
I took personal leadership and I hated learning about taxes. But I’d way rather learn something I hate that’s useful than something I dislike that I’ll never use
High school doesn't teach you:- How to handle job interviews How to get over rejection How to manage your finances How to love yourself How to write a resume How to get loans for college Anything about taxes *But at least you know the Pythagorean theorem*
Trust me, doing taxes is literally just filling out a form, they taught it to us in my eighth grade a couple years ago and it was easy as hell. Insurance is the same, just filling out a form. A lot of these life skills can be understood in a couple of weeks. The whole point of learning trigonometry and other seemingly useless info is not to learn what it is but how you are doing it, and to learn more internal life skills like critical thinking, applying past knowledge, solving problems, working with others, and more. Also there are people who would want to pursue a career in construction and architecture that would be interested in trigonometry, the reason it is given to everyone is so they can get a full idea of what to pursue and they can decide for themselves. I do agree with budgeting, that is a skill that is essential and should be taught in 12th grade.
how do you think your dad learned it? you will learn them the same way as all of us when the time comes, believe me learning how to pay your taxes is much easier than doing trigonometry
Bro literally was so traumatized after my finals week that I had a mental breakdown thinking that by the time finals was over, if anyone tried to talk to me, I’d just respond to “hey how’s is going?” with “mitochondria is the powerhouse of a cell” and “the capital of Mexico is Mexico City”
I used to teach high school history (now I teach middle school science and history) and I do understand that students may find this class useless. One thing I learned from college is that high school history's main goal is to teach students how a chain of events can lead to the benefit of future generations. Also I constantly hear students complain about the things like why don't they teach us how to do taxes. The truth is some states restrict what we cant teach to students. Taxes is one of those things because they prefer the parents teach their kids economical benefits and economic common sense.
I'm getting ready to go to high school... But this video showed me I'm preparing to go through more depression than I ever will in my life... I'll probably trade my own morality for better grades with all that stuff!
I joined the Army right after high school and just graduating basic training felt much more like an accomplishment than graduating high school could ever be. 2 months of pushing myself to my absolute physical limits to better myself and provide for my family vs 4 years of pain, suffering, drama, and depression caused by the school and the people in it.
Here is my schedule when it comes to sleep and going to school: go to bed at 10pm, wake up at 6am, do my daily check ins, get dressed at 7am, eat breakfast and get ready for school for 20-30 minutes, then leave for the bus at 8am.
Personal take here: High school ain’t meant to benefit everybody, it’s just meant to be a selection process for people with over the top work ethic. If it’s too much then theirs not even a purpose. That’s why there’s all these crazy difficult subjects. I agree with the video, high schools should help prepare the everyday student for the real world
Yeah school is literally just meant to test your ethic and how much you can handle, like REAL LIFE. Mofos complain and act so depressed, Jesus grown adults may actually be overworked yet they put on a happy face and move on
I feel like it should be a mix of both real life skills/awareness and academia, and if not then at least let people know why they're doing what they're doing. Yes, it isnt for everyone, people gave thresholds, but that's just how life works.
I think high school has a good purpose especially for people that are going to college or thinking about going to college. Imagine applying for college and not knowing if you could handle the work load and wasting thousands of dollars to realize the work load isn’t for you? There’s people that happens to but it’s far less because high school gives a little glimpse of what you may experience during college. The habits you carry in high school carry over to college. High school is like a free trial
I am also a middle schooler, and I watch to many musicals. What if I get Squiped? What if I die and a person pretends to have been my friend to date my sister? What if my school is blown up?
Sofia MacDonald it’s not the worst thing in the world. Many Hollywood movies and musicals create scenarios that would never happen in a regular high school, and they just do it for drama so people would watch. Don’t trust Hollywood stuff it’s a lot like middle school but more work and you actually have to pick stuff that you want to do (electives and clubs) like debate or robotics or newspaper or something that looks good to colleges and your resumé.
Shiv: you’ll only get 7 - 7.30 hours of sleep Me that gets 7 hours of sleep if I’m lucky and didn’t take 30 minutes trying to fall asleep: I’m ok, this is fine

here are some of my experiences: (as a student athlete who cared about grades) I didn't eat breakfast I was sleep deprived I stayed up late doing assignments I couldn't focus on in class because I was sleep deprived I was a sweaty mess so finishing homework in the morning was difficult I got hour long lectures after my math grade dropped from 99 to 94 After 2 months of chewing myself out for doing xc, running on handout gum (ha see what i did there), and watching this not-quite-60-second video, I strongly agree: highschool sucks ass
@@turtlestudios9970 it probably won't be quite as bad as me because I procrastinated a lot and my academics was pretty extra: was on the state math and science team as well as pentathlon in middle school
English after 6 grade just felt like a repeat of everything you learnt, nothing new , but the way people still confuse (I’m/am) (our/are) (then/than) (lose/loose) oh and peoples favorite (your/you’re) (to/two/too) I think the school system needs it.
I’ve been out of highschool since 2016, I’m in College with my bachelors in Psychology having an A average and I don’t remember anything from Highschool. I promise you, HS is only important for scholarship opportunities so you’re not in debt most of your life from college.
One time in middle school I was so done with school, i always skipped classes and barely ever do my work and either the teacher just don't care or won't understand why I'm like this.. but I have this one english teacher who has her own office and had the biggest set of bookcases and likes to let me read in her office or borrowed some books and it was my one and only reason to go to school.. until she says that I can only borrow her books and took em home if I at least get an average grade.. and that's the story of how I did not end up as a middle school drop out
Me, a South Korean student: Oh life here is simple. We just stay at school until 10 at night, (I am not joking) go home do all the homework for your school AND 4~5 different academies, (English, math, Korean, social studies, science, etc.) and get graded by not your scores but your ranks.
That sounds horrible. I think schools should encourage collaboration and other positive traits/practices, etc. Pitting students against each other will cause you to hate learning (if you don't hate it already).

@@SirBloxy I wasn't really talking to OP, I was talking to you. Like it or not, it's necessary to teach biology to students to understand the natural world. Cells are the smallest unit of life and are the building blocks of your entire anatomy. Even when you're not entering a career in medicine it's also necessary for you to learn the concept. STEM high school is supposed to teach you skills. To OP's point, spinning education strictly into "memorize the organelles, photosynthesis, respiration and you'll pass your exams," is atrocious because that does not develop your critical thinking. On the other hand, conceptualizing an organism as molecular as a single cell does. Bottom line is high schoolers must be able to adapt to the adult world from developing critical thinking skills. Learning how to merely survive it, on the other hand, only gets you so far. I acknowledge that you and OP were rather joking, but it absolutely destroys me to see the hundreds of other students your age who aren't joking when they say the exact same thing.

advice and motivational words from a junior: you got this, so work hard. it'll pay off. good luck. let's all get through that hellhole together. edit: I didn’t think you guys would come in with some good advice so let me add more! 1) take extracurricular courses! sports, clubs, etc. not only do they look good on college resumes, but you can figure out what you like and don’t like. 2) if you know what you want to do in your future and your school offers it (or something similar), go for it!! it can save you having to change your major and wasting time and money when you get to college. 3) KEEP THAT GPA UP AS HIGH AS POSSIBLE!! Aim for straight A’s!! Especially freshman year because it’ll be a bit more challenging to bring it back up afterward. I didn’t study too hard in Geometry and I ended up with a D my freshman year, which kinda hurt my GPA. Also, I settled for A’s and B’s when I know I could’ve pushed myself a bit harder. I ended up with a 3.2 unweighted GPA. 4) for the love of God, don’t date a senior. 5) please please PLEASE think two… no, maybe a hundred times about who you’re getting involved with and who you’re considering your ‘friend.’ If you spot those red flags, you better head out!! 6) don’t be rude to teachers and stuff. it’s not cute or cool. 7) be on the teacher’s good side and get to know them well. That’s a really big advantage - for one, you’ll be able to have someone that could write a letter of recommendation for you to your college of choice. that’s all I have lol best of luck!!!
Another words of knowledge from a junior: 1. TRY your BEST to get straight A's, if not then do not settle for less than A's and B's 2. Make sure you get honor classes or AP or IB if you think that you're ready for it (start with honors first) 3. Join some extracurricular activities like clubs, sports, band, choir, etc. 4. Make smart choices, and hang around with GOOD people, STAY AWAY FROM THE CLASS CLOWNS (but you can always laugh at their jokes 5. MOST IMPORTANTLY: HAVE FUN!!!

Schools need to focus on useful things. Everything after middle school is never used in everyday lives. Unless you go into a field where that’s needed. Which in that case, it should be taught in the college course. Having kids literally waist their lives learning these things is terrible. Once you hit 18 your expected to know exactly what you want to do with your life and just get tossed out into the world with zero experience. Good thing I learned trigonometry for tax season or finding a useful career path. They stress kids out with these things for zero reason, because it has zero use in everyday life. I’m just rambling at this point but it pisses me off so much.
Im in 5th grade RN and I was in a summer program all summer. One of the kids that was older (like 12) asked our teacher “why do we learn math and these problems bc we won’t need to do these problems when we are an adult” the teacher said “ the math will help you calculate your taxes” Tell us what will we even use these problems..

Excuse me but I don’t know where you went to high school but I have to wake up at 5:45 to make the bus at 6:50 but I have to plant to be at the bus drop at 6:45 because I have had way to many drivers and they all came between 6:40 and 7:00 and we had to get to school by 7:40 but when those drivers got time at 7:00 they had to speed because it is a half hour bus route going all over my small town. I had one driver who was always running way too late that we had to drop a stop and those kids had to take a different bus
Wth u had a 0 period class?? What does that mean? Extra learning. Then you're lucky

• High stress
• Mild to severe depression
• Anxiety
• Sleep deprivation
• Lack of self esteem

College is 10x worse imo. The good thing is that your schedule is generally more flexible, but the load of studying, papers, seminars and everything else is heavier and the demand is greater.

In Texas where I live, we started high school with Hurricane Harvey and we’re ending it with a pandemic, so it’s the best worst sandwiches of our lives.
I remember the day we started learning about “IMAGINARY NUMBERS” in trigonometry. That was the point I truly realized 80 percent of high school, maybe even school in general is BULLSHIT.
Damn.. I'm glad our government suddenly said that subjects for the finals are more important than the rest at the time we were at that topic. Byeee math!
I heard from my father that they are important. Like for radiology and stuff. Luckily I won't need them.
It's so your head can understand those concepts, pretty useful if you try to study something related to math.
Elementary school is vital and some aspects of middle school can be important but Highschool needs to be changed completely Highschool should be about learning what to face after you graduate it should be about learning how to file taxes or how to balance your bank accounts they should teach us how to properly control our emotions all these things are much more vital then learning how to do fucking calculus or geometry
Dude just SAME
@@noriakikakyoin1423 I'm not sure how it is done where you are, but how it should be done is that highschool classes are not there to teach you how to do stuff. When you're in high school you are in the process of finding yourself through puberty so the curriculum is designed to teach you skills, not information. You develop skills through different processes which you might find insignificant but they are there to help your mind grow. Again this is how it SHOULD be. Sadly now a days many teachers don't give a shit and just ask you to memorize stuff and that's when learning fails to occur.
An example of how skills can be taught is when learning IMAGINARY NUMBERS. Sure it might sound useless to someone who has no desire to follow a career in math, but just the fact that you can complete calculations using a number that is entirely abstract is enough to develop your brain to better understand abstract concepts, such as waves.
As a teacher it reallya hurts to see so mamy young students focused on learning "useful" things such as taxes and what not. If you focus on developing your skills you can figure out all those thinga and more! If you are happy just learning to survive in the adult world, you won't be able to live in the real world.
This is one of my favorite things about my math teacher. She takes concepts we are learning and instead of unit things like bananas as a variable, she shows how they can be used in everyday scenarios, and how we can learn to invest better, find better deals, and even how to do taxes. I can tell already she is going to be super beneficial to me in the future.
I feel like if the school system taught us important stuff everyone would've finished school at 13.
but what would happen after 13??since you are basically still a minor and not able to work??stay in school kids.
You are very correct
Yup how to survive and be productive
Only bad thing about that is then they would legalize because you have nothing else to learn so you start working your 9-5 at 14
In an ideal world you finish school in 8th grade and then will have the option to enroll in college, that way you can at least have a bachelor's by the time you're of age
this makes a lot of sense

One time this one guy was choking my friend so I kicked him out of self defense and he let go of him grabbing his shin cause he was in pain and then I got in trouble for kicking even though I explained the situation to the principal who said I should have just told an adult when there were many adults watching this guy choke my friend

Trust me, doing taxes is literally just filling out a form, they taught it to us in my eighth grade a couple years ago and it was easy as hell. Insurance is the same, just filling out a form. A lot of these life skills can be understood in a couple of weeks. The whole point of learning trigonometry and other seemingly useless info is not to learn what it is but how you are doing it, and to learn more internal life skills like critical thinking, applying past knowledge, solving problems, working with others, and more. Also there are people who would want to pursue a career in construction and architecture that would be interested in trigonometry, the reason it is given to everyone is so they can get a full idea of what to pursue and they can decide for themselves. I do agree with budgeting, that is a skill that is essential and should be taught in 12th grade.

I used to teach high school history (now I teach middle school science and history) and I do understand that students may find this class useless. One thing I learned from college is that high school history's main goal is to teach students how a chain of events can lead to the benefit of future generations. Also I constantly hear students complain about the things like why don't they teach us how to do taxes. The truth is some states restrict what we cant teach to students. Taxes is one of those things because they prefer the parents teach their kids economical benefits and economic common sense.
my mother didn't teach me anything, my father only started teaching me taxes years after high school
Facts. I’m a senior and have to deal with all of this. Hopefully I’ll graduate out of high school.

Wake up
Are wojak really that pathethic?
I joined the Army right after high school and just graduating basic training felt much more like an accomplishment than graduating high school could ever be. 2 months of pushing myself to my absolute physical limits to better myself and provide for my family vs 4 years of pain, suffering, drama, and depression caused by the school and the people in it.
Here is my schedule when it comes to sleep and going to school: go to bed at 10pm, wake up at 6am, do my daily check ins, get dressed at 7am, eat breakfast and get ready for school for 20-30 minutes, then leave for the bus at 8am.
School boards seeing this video: "I smell disrespect"
And also will try to take the video down
@@zeno2656 Why?
Personal take here:
High school ain’t meant to benefit everybody, it’s just meant to be a selection process for people with over the top work ethic. If it’s too much then theirs not even a purpose. That’s why there’s all these crazy difficult subjects. I agree with the video, high schools should help prepare the everyday student for the real world
Yeah school is literally just meant to test your ethic and how much you can handle, like REAL LIFE. Mofos complain and act so depressed, Jesus grown adults may actually be overworked yet they put on a happy face and move on
@@macewindu6853 and why is that okay? You know it doesn’t have to be like that right?
I feel like it should be a mix of both real life skills/awareness and academia, and if not then at least let people know why they're doing what they're doing. Yes, it isnt for everyone, people gave thresholds, but that's just how life works.
I think high school has a good purpose especially for people that are going to college or thinking about going to college. Imagine applying for college and not knowing if you could handle the work load and wasting thousands of dollars to realize the work load isn’t for you? There’s people that happens to but it’s far less because high school gives a little glimpse of what you may experience during college. The habits you carry in high school carry over to college. High school is like a free trial
@@Ashley-jx7sw A reasonable take, thank you for sharing.

You’ll survive. I graduated this year, pretty easy. Just try and pass but don’t try too hard if you catch my drift

First time?
You'll be fine... hopefully
Sofia MacDonald it’s not the worst thing in the world. Many Hollywood movies and musicals create scenarios that would never happen in a regular high school, and they just do it for drama so people would watch. Don’t trust Hollywood stuff it’s a lot like middle school but more work and you actually have to pick stuff that you want to do (electives and clubs) like debate or robotics or newspaper or something that looks good to colleges and your resumé.

I’ve been out of highschool since 2016, I’m in College with my bachelors in Psychology having an A average and I don’t remember anything from Highschool. I promise you, HS is only important for scholarship opportunities so you’re not in debt most of your life from college.

One time in middle school I was so done with school, i always skipped classes and barely ever do my work and either the teacher just don't care or won't understand why I'm like this.. but I have this one english teacher who has her own office and had the biggest set of bookcases and likes to let me read in her office or borrowed some books and it was my one and only reason to go to school.. until she says that I can only borrow her books and took em home if I at least get an average grade.. and that's the story of how I did not end up as a middle school drop out
Me, a South Korean student: Oh life here is simple. We just stay at school until 10 at night, (I am not joking) go home do all the homework for your school AND 4~5 different academies, (English, math, Korean, social studies, science, etc.) and get graded by not your scores but your ranks.
that sounds absolutely horrible I'm so sorry
That sounds horrible. I think schools should encourage collaboration and other positive traits/practices, etc. Pitting students against each other will cause you to hate learning (if you don't hate it already).

@@mason.11 dude it was a joke, mitochondria was a simple example because it was the first thing that came to his head
@@SirBloxy I wasn't really talking to OP, I was talking to you. Like it or not, it's necessary to teach biology to students to understand the natural world. Cells are the smallest unit of life and are the building blocks of your entire anatomy. Even when you're not entering a career in medicine it's also necessary for you to learn the concept. STEM high school is supposed to teach you skills. To OP's point, spinning education strictly into "memorize the organelles, photosynthesis, respiration and you'll pass your exams," is atrocious because that does not develop your critical thinking. On the other hand, conceptualizing an organism as molecular as a single cell does.
Bottom line is high schoolers must be able to adapt to the adult world from developing critical thinking skills. Learning how to merely survive it, on the other hand, only gets you so far. I acknowledge that you and OP were rather joking, but it absolutely destroys me to see the hundreds of other students your age who aren't joking when they say the exact same thing.

advice and motivational words from a junior: you got this, so work hard. it'll pay off. good luck. let's all get through that hellhole together.
edit: I didn’t think you guys would come in with some good advice so let me add more!
1) take extracurricular courses! sports, clubs, etc. not only do they look good on college resumes, but you can figure out what you like and don’t like.
2) if you know what you want to do in your future and your school offers it (or something similar), go for it!! it can save you having to change your major and wasting time and money when you get to college.
3) KEEP THAT GPA UP AS HIGH AS POSSIBLE!! Aim for straight A’s!! Especially freshman year because it’ll be a bit more challenging to bring it back up afterward. I didn’t study too hard in Geometry and I ended up with a D my freshman year, which kinda hurt my GPA. Also, I settled for A’s and B’s when I know I could’ve pushed myself a bit harder. I ended up with a 3.2 unweighted GPA.
4) for the love of God, don’t date a senior.
5) please please PLEASE think two… no, maybe a hundred times about who you’re getting involved with and who you’re considering your ‘friend.’ If you spot those red flags, you better head out!!
6) don’t be rude to teachers and stuff. it’s not cute or cool.
7) be on the teacher’s good side and get to know them well. That’s a really big advantage - for one, you’ll be able to have someone that could write a letter of recommendation for you to your college of choice.
that’s all I have lol best of luck!!!
Another words of knowledge from a junior:
1. TRY your BEST to get straight A's, if not then do not settle for less than A's and B's
2. Make sure you get honor classes or AP or IB if you think that you're ready for it (start with honors first)
3. Join some extracurricular activities like clubs, sports, band, choir, etc.
4. Make smart choices, and hang around with GOOD people, STAY AWAY FROM THE CLASS CLOWNS (but you can always laugh at their jokes
5. MOST IMPORTANTLY: HAVE FUN!!!
@@sevier992 oof, good luck

Schools need to focus on useful things. Everything after middle school is never used in everyday lives. Unless you go into a field where that’s needed. Which in that case, it should be taught in the college course. Having kids literally waist their lives learning these things is terrible. Once you hit 18 your expected to know exactly what you want to do with your life and just get tossed out into the world with zero experience. Good thing I learned trigonometry for tax season or finding a useful career path. They stress kids out with these things for zero reason, because it has zero use in everyday life. I’m just rambling at this point but it pisses me off so much.
Im in 5th grade RN and I was in a summer program all summer. One of the kids that was older (like 12) asked our teacher “why do we learn math and these problems bc we won’t need to do these problems when we are an adult” the teacher said “ the math will help you calculate your taxes”
