It’s not true, at least for me. For the upcoming school year, I’m taking seven classes, including three AP classes. I am going to have loads of homework to do. This is the time when you think about your future and college and all that good stuff. It’s a really stressful time, but there are also fun times, so don’t worry.

Well, personally, I don’t find high school very hard at all. I don’t really remember my junior high classes, but it really wasn’t much harder. There are a few classes that I found difficult, but that’s not anything new.

You do have more than 4 classes, though. You may have only 4 mandatory classes, but you have to have a certain amount of electives as well to graduate.

My classes are 60-65 minutes long and there is a fair amount of homework. I don’t get very much because I’ve lucked out, and I usually finish most of my work in class/spares/other classes, but there is homework.

There’s exams and post secondary education to worry about, as well. Projects, tests, assignments… there’s a lot of stressful points about high school. High school shapes your future.

There may only be 4 classes that are basic,, but you must take electives (so many credits) and other courses that you end up with a full day’s worth of school work, and no the classes are not 2 hours long each of them. Each one runs about 50 minutes to 55 minutes. And homework as usual. More than in Jr. High.

Lol. I have never heard of a school with only 4 classes. No its any easier. If anything its harder. Think about it two hours with a teacher you hate and a subject you hate. I had six classes last year each more than an hour long. It wasn’t hard but its not exactly middle school either.

Whoever you heard this from is dead wrong. Highschool ius always harder then Middle school just as Middleschool is harder than Elementary.

Why would they make it easier. That makes no sense. You will have more homework, more electives and major classes to take. A full days of classes and a full night of homework.

I lucked out and did my homework during school hours so when I got home I didn’t have as much. I usually used my free period or lunch time.

I guarantee it will be harder.

this kind of a schedule is called a block schedule. u have the same 4 classes for the first two quarters or one semester, then u change during the second semester. this schedule includes core classes and electives.

other schools have periods like mine has 9 that are 42 min each.

i have a friend who goes to a school with a block schedule n she says its still hard even tho its only 4 classes. sure it may seem like there’s not as much hw, but it’ll definitely be harder than junior high hw.

hope this helps! :]

No, that makes no sense. As you progress through high school the level of difficultly does as well. You aren’t doing 7th grade math in high school, or 8th grade English and Literature. There might not be as much homework, but it will still be harder. I found high school to be a lot harder, espically my Junior year.

personally i don’t believe so.

high school is tough especially when u ask more, such as better colleges or career.

if u don’t, u will easily drop out!

just study!
