I’m going into high school next year & there’s some things I wanna know..?

Lately I’ve been asking a lot about what kids in high school are like, how they act, blah blah blah blah.

& not once have I asked about academics.

I’m pretty darn sure I’m a bright student but by no means does that mean I’m a genius.

What’s the work load in grade 9 like?

The toughest part of starting high school was always adjusting to the new atmosphere, not so much the academics, at least for me. If you’ve been on top of things in middle school (and it sounds like you were), you’ll find the academics for 9th grade won’t be too difficult – the hardest part, like I said, is just adjusting to the new style of classes and teaching, meeting new people, etc.

Well I didn’t think my freshman year was all that bad and I was even taking some of the honors classes. It depends on how you want to plan out your high school years; if you want to take AP classes in the future, then you should start planning them when you are a freshman. The work is a bit more than what middle school is, but it was never overwhelming.

Good luck next year!

wow good luck hun, not trying to make it sound hard or anything but its certainly not easy either. Class range from geometry, anatomy/physics, World History, English 1 and the electives you might choose, it might take a while to adjust but be confident =D now about how they act hmm, just be nice in general to everyone, because the first impression everyone gets of you thats how they’ll treat you =) Just be yourself, dont let any seniors intimidate you in any of sort, and if you’re new to the school just tag a long with someone so the day can go easier, thats the best I can tell you hehe good luck =)

For me, it wasn’t about how hard the work was my freshman year, it was about doing it. I just graduated and regret so much about what I didn’t do my freshman year. I think it is one of the most important years of high school. It is going to set you up for the rest of your HS life. At my school, the classes weren’t that difficult, it was just the fact that you needed to do the work to pass.

The best thing I can tell you is to think of your freshman year as the most important year you will have. Do good so you can set yourself up for success in your future high school career.

It depends on who your teacher is and what they are like. Because my teachers are nice and they all give out easy work. Plus high school is a little easier being that you aonly have 4 periods a day.

it depends if you are in a pubic or private school, but private schools tend to be harder especially catholic ones, oddly enough i go to the hardest school in my city and i have better grades than i did in middle school
