Stressing out because of school workload?

Basic run-down:

1. I missed 2 days of school recently, and I've got a timeline, at least 30 response questions, annotations, a packet on JFK, the last few paragraphs of a research assignment, a math worksheet, and a chemistry worksheet to do. And I can't focus.

2. I also have to study for my SAT test next Saturday and my 2 AP tests the following Friday and succeeding Wednesday. I'm okay, except for math...my math percentage is really low. Not fatally, but relatively. I can't seem to get basic questions. I'm practicing on College board at least once a week on top of everything else, and even the easy questions leave me mind-blank.

I'm seriously on the verge of tears right now. I can barely focus on any of my work because I'm so stressed out about all of it and it's driving me crazy. Help, please!

    Oh wow I can understand why you're stressed. I would feel the same way if I had as much work due as you.

    One thing you can do is print out a blank calendar of April. On each day write what is due and hang it on your wall. If you do that the process will be less stressful. Then take a small piece of paper and write two to three goals for everyday. Break work up into bit, that may help.

  • I can relate. I also have SATs and 2 AP tests coming up (plus ACTs shortly after that.) Plus I have a chemistry test tomorrow which I haven't even begun studying for yet. I guess I should probably get on that one. My recommendation for you is to take a break. Even if it's just 10 minutes, listen to some music, take some deep breaths, and then look at it again with fresh eyes. If you can, I think you should just stop studying for the night. You sound like you've had enough and you've probably reached the point where you're so frustrated you're not going to reatain anything anymore.

    P.S. Is your Friday A.P. lang and comp? Because I'm taking that one and I've heard it's a joke, so if you are taking it, I wouldn't stress too much about it.
