Which is why I love the school system here. I mean, I'm in college but, seeing the work my older brothers had to do before there, I will never have to do those 8+ pages essays. O.0" The final college french essay is around 900-1000 words. That 1200-1500 words essay of mine is just an extra project given by the teacher and we have a month and a week to do it which is plenty. I just never thought that some people could get essays that huge. ^^"
Lol I hate my school system. The school strives to be "The Best" So they push every single student way beyond our limits. And, to top it off, I was in a special, interview and get chosen to get in, class and we discussed everything that went on around school and how we could make things better. We found that Freshman year was harder than the Junior and Senior year! (Sophomore year was a passing year, Driver's Ed. xD) Talk about a "Welcome to High School" plan.
When I was a Freshman we had at least 15 kids drop out in the first semester, and many others are getting between C and F letter grades. And the kids that do get good grades are forced to stay up until 4 in the morning because we're required to take sports which takes up way to much of our time at home to get our homework done, and none of us wanna flunk in our Freshman year so we're studying until we're falling asleep at our desks. It's horrid. Not saying that the other years of High School aren't really hard as well, cause they are, but Freshman year was nearly impossible to complete. Take me for instance. I usually get A's and B's in my grades, with an occasional C of course, but when I was a Freshman I almost flunked out, even after doing my homework until the early morning hours! I was so burned out the next day I didn't really learn anything. 0_o Hard to believe, isn't it.That's what I'm thinking right now. ^^
