I'm in year 11 now and so far I've doing fine, aced few tests and assignments, though back in the junior year I did bad and now I want to redeem myself and push hard. Well did you do good back in high school, or are you doing good? Did you regret anything?

I did well enough. You can always do better, but in the end it didn't really even matter what my class ranking was, my SAT scores or whatever. It depends on the situtation though, this was merely my case.What really helped me was the fact I was able to graduate with 21 college credits.

If I have any academic regrets, it's not taking advantage of scholarships.

Pretty close to top of the class. Never studied once though, I have a good memory. Only classes I had a hard time with was Math and French. French because in grade 9 the teacher was a complete failure and we didn't even do 20% of the required work, everyone in the entire class failed the final exam, which basically screwed me over for French 10 and 11. Math has always been my weakest skill. Still got a C+ in Math 12 though which is pretty good, most don't even take it and most who do don't pass.

Ehh. It depends what subject. I didn't do well in PE because I didn't feel like putting effort in when the only people who got good marks were the favorites (aka the girls the teacher coached in whatever sport they coached), and I didn't do too well in math because I hate math. I'm exceptionally good at writing, psychology, even social studies on certain levels, if I care about what I'm learning. The only thing I regret is not taking more cooking courses while in regular school.

Homework was the bane of my existence in high school. I scored very well consistently on tests, but skipped nearly all of my homework assignments, save for larger projects. I always got glowing comments about the work I actually did turn in. I've lost count how many teachers I've disappointed by flunking their class when they knew my ability. Laziness, while a factor, wasn't the main reason. I simply couldn't bring myself to do grunt work that I felt was there for the kids who couldn't pass the tests. Look, if I score in the top 98 percentile on the STAR exam, I shouldn't have to do all this other junk, or at least that's how I saw it.

Zero effort.

Played video games 99.9% of the time with my friends. Learned nothing.In my eight years of HS and College (last semester woo hoo) I never applied myself a single time.

I was a mediocre student and never cared enough to study too hard. Totally regret it. Should've put in a lot more effort and actually learned something.

I didn't do well at all. Some classes like English bored me to tears and math was no picnic. I definitely should have done better with my intelligence. Live and learn I guess.

Why are you still up? In high school I barely passed because I missed so many classes. That said, I still had a 3.5 GPA and was able to take 1/2 days my entire senior year for work co-op.

A 3.5GPA is barely passing?

Pretty sure missing classes to a certain extent limits the ability to graduate..

I find it amazing how it has been almost a decade since I started high school... >_> And yes, I did well for the first two years... and other than physics in grade 12, I just gave up halfway through the year. Though, I did pass and eventually got into university... but I had to re-learn how to learn from scratch, because my high-school (despite saying they would) never prepared me for university. Though, in my fourth year (of five, for a three year degree... >_>) I learned more in one cIass than throughout my entire time I spent there with everything else. But, even after graduating, I've been continuing my studies on my free time, and have learned a significant amount more than paying $10K for an almost-useless B.A. ever got me.

In Australia, high school is the years 7-10.

I do almost all of my work to a good standard, I just annoy the teachers because I talk a lot and I swear like a sailor:P

I did pretty poorly. Funny how your attitude towards education completely changes when and if you get to college and you get your ass into high gear.

Yes and no. Overall I did well in 9th and 10th grade. I took a full course load every semester and I mostly got straight As. I applied myself and enjoyed myself and I was involved in many extracurriculars. However, 11th grade was a really bad year for me. I was terribly depressed and put forth minimal effort. My grades were mediocre to bad, and I hardly applied myself. I was still heavily involved in my extracurriculars, though, and I did find some of my classes interesting. I still took a full course load. In 12th grade I started to gain a little momentum back, but then I got lazy like everyone else. Overall I didn't put forth as much effort as I'd have liked to. I took full course loads including AP classes, language classes (Latin), music classes, and lots of sciences. I was very involved with extracurriculars (which were of academic nature for the most part). However, I fell short in some areas and didn't try as hard as I should've, which was silly since the work was not hard. I let myself get lazy. I have some regrets, but I can't dwell on it.

I actually did pretty well in high school. I graduated in the top 25 students and had a GPA of over 4 (weighted of course). I actually worked pretty hard to attain good grades.

Ninth grade I did terribly; nearly failed Algebra I. I. I resented being moved out into the boondocks of rural Alabama. Turned it around the following year and from then on.

i did well enough...im an auditory learner...and can pretty much recite anything ive heard...therefore homework and the such didnt help me too much...i was also really lazy...i would do all the work for the first couple weeks of class then depending upon my first test i would decide with the work was worth it...more often than not...i could get a's on my test without doin the work...and end up gettin b's in my classes...overall...i saved a bunch of time for video games and having a life...

Eh, I did okay.I was miserable at the sciences, D in chemistry, C- in Bio and physics.and I didnt change my clothes forPE, so i got a D there. GPA was like 3.2? Pretty good in my opinion.I took AP Music Theory as a senior, thats the only 'advanced' class I ever took.

Took all music classes as a senior... hated every other part of high school. English was okay, I guess
