Very nice indeed!
 
I'm 15, a sophomore in high school in NJ. All classes in my school are Honors or AP. It's a pre-engineering career academy. Lots of work.


My favorite subjects are math (currently Algebra 2/ Trig), science (Physics - though this is my least favorite), and my engineering courses (Computer Integrated Manufacturing and Principles of Engineering).

Oh and I have a Mini, plus tons of PCs.

High School Sophomore - all honors or AP
I enjoy acting, playwrighting, filmmaking, and macs of course.
I would like to go to either Princeton, Vassar, Columbia, Yale, or NYU.
It's nice to see there are teenagers like me using macs. :D
So, since we're all taking rather advanced courses, is anyone feeling the pressure lately? I am. :(

Yes.

Actually, my only really bad grade is in Spanish 3 Honors. The part where the teacher is Albanian (really hard to understand her in English) doesn't help either.

I'll be taking a full AP load next year - AP Physics, AP U.S. History, A.P. English, and AP Art. Not to worry, the AP Physics teacher is my track coach (he gives extra points to his track team!), the AP Art is pretty much doing whatever you want, and the AP English teacher is awesome, but gives lots of essays (which are easy for me to BS through).

Dropping Spanish next year, and taking Latin for my last two years. Easy 100. Also, I'll probably take "Computer Repair," a "class" the principal created for my friend and currently has one member. The "class" basically consists of setting up and fixing the schools terrible system, on days when you feel like it. Plus, it's a full credit. :)
 
I'm feeling the pressure too. Very tired too.

Schedule:
- Honors Science- really hard teacher
- Honors English
- Graphic Design 1 (don't get my started with that class)
- Study Hall
- Honors Geometry (Our schools have Algebra 2 in 10th Grade)
- Applied Electronics I
- 4th Lunch (except on an odd double period day when I have it 2nd)
- Honors World Civ.
- Spanish 2, nice teacher but can't teach at all

(no AP courses until jr. year at my school)

well, here goes nothing:

12 years old
live in new york
7th grade student
obsessed with technology - especially macs (though not so much that it completely takes over my life)
enjoy soccer, skiing, hanging out with family and friends, reading, writing
12" powerbook 1.33ghz 768MB 60gb 10.4.3 + Quicksilver (quicksilver.blacktree.com) + iPod 3G 20G
 
To answer my own question:

I am insanely stressed this year.

U.S. History I Honors (B+)
English 2 Honors (A)
Spanish 3 Honors(A)
Chemistry I Honors (B-, I bombed a test.)
Computer Science AP(B-, I bombed a test and I waltzed right into this class without knowing anything about JAVA.)
Algebra 2 (A-)

My group of friends includes the brightest students in my class with some of them reaching 5.1 GPAs. I am falling behind with a 4.2 GPA. :mad:

I have to ace all my classes this year in order to even smell Top 10. :(
 
I'm 13 and an Honor Student :eek: :D



I love tech, but still involved in sports, scuh as tennis and soccer. TENNIS RULES THE BEST SPORT EVER ! I have a 3.97 grade point average. School is the best for me, Boy do I love it. Our school as g3 imacs in like 4 of their labs I would say about 200 of them, then like 30 powerpc g3's, then about 100 new dells with 21" flat screen. My school has olny like 600 people in it !
 
My grades:

Chemistry Honors - 88
Spanish III Honors - 78
Word History II Honors - 99
Gym - 96
English II Honors - 100
Art 2 Magnet (better then honors, but not AP) - 96
Advanced Algebra Honors - 84

Not great for me. Until last year, I always got straight A's. I think I've just become too overloaded these days with other activities:
• Flute Lessons
• Robotics Team (co-captain)
• Varsity Track (three seasons worth - XC, indoor, outdoor)
• Student Council
• Class officer (secretary)
• Principal's Advisory Committee (also the secretary for that)
• Superintendent's Advisory Committee
• state trained Youth Peer Mediator
• Fine Arts Design Chairperson for my school
• Youth member on the Curriculum Review Board for the school district
• A/V Club - I make school the school IDs
• the school's Improvement Association founder and chairman
• Boy Scout Troop Senior Patrol Leader
• Order of the Arrow (an offshoot of Boy Scouts) Lodge officer (Treasurer)

You could say I'm just a little busy. Amazingly, I still do decent grade wise considering all the other things I take on (and I still post on MR, read MySpace's, Xangas, webcomics, etc...). Out of a class of 420, I'm 29th. I'd like to be top 25, and I will be if I just get that darn spanish grade up to an 85.
 
I can't believe all the people with Honors classes! My only Honors class is next semester. I feel really stupid with all these kids making straight A's. That has never happened to me before, but I have made plenty of A's and B's before. Not on last report card though. I'm embarrased to share those grades! :eek:
 
Interesting thread.

I'm 16. I'm not going to list my classes and my grades because who cares? My overall average thing was 95 and I do OK. I don't like school though. Yay.
