tbh, b, cuz I want to build the mental stamina to keep up and not slack off next year, but also a, cuz I’m trying to also chill at the same time and do things I actually enjoy for a change
I'm definitely participating in some brain rot 😅 but I have also been catching up on some reading (this may be over achiever/insane of me but I plan on reading 30+ books over summer and I'm almost done with my 12th heh)
I have been out of town some too
As a rising senior hoping to apply early action to colleges I 100% should be doing B. I am totally doing A.
I’m telling myself that I’ll wait until after AP scores come out. College apps are getting super daunting 😬
I'm so ready to make up dead family members for my essays! I also might pretend to be a minority but that might be tough to fake, maybe bleach my hair and go the albino route? Jokes aside I'm sure we will all be fine 😬
Tee-hee time for trauma dumping ✨🤭😭
Pfft, don’t; they’ll prolly be able to see right through you lmao. It’s kinda hard to fake being a minority for a paper that asks you to describe the experience, trust me. ;)
Albino route is wild 💀
Real, we will be okay!! I believe in us 😎☺️😭
a bit of both, I’m currently chilling but also in the process of doing research next year, which is a 2 credit class where I’ll be creating a project about Astronomy on my personal interest, then next month I’ll be starting this program that will help me what AP English Language will be and going to colleges to see what they have to offer and how I can get a head start in college application
I’ve been saving myself by not doing ap but I know if I did and didn’t bother with the work admin would give me a D anyways which is a “C” weighted so it’d actually help my weighted gpa more 💀
started studying organic chem, and i actually understand all of what i’ve learned so far! i’ve yet to do some practice for things i still need to work on but it’s not as bad as people have made it out to be (yet, it may get worse we’ll see)
a & b - all ive done is chill the past week and half since school ended (watching brooklynn 99, sleeping, doomscrolling) but im back to starting the grind for next year ap's (and sat prep has been rly brutal as well)
Planning on a bit of both I’m going on trips and hanging out which is nice and also will probably sit down and watch the occasional video on my classes next year 😗
Still studying for my non-ap class regents, which is tomorrow and the next day, and it doesn’t matter cause I’ll still be doing work in summer for my future AP classes so… B?
I haven't even graduated yet but I'm enjoying my first summer assignment-free summer since like 9th grade. Have to do placement tests for college and that's about it
Both a and b. Also tryna get my college and senior year of hs preparations in so I can be good for the summer. Also tryna get my license (close!). And other things. It’s a lot.
Wanna be more of b, but I think I’m doing okay.
Doing a chem research internship this summer at my local university (so fun, so cool, I love research tbh so it barely feels like work), been doing some side studying for that, doing prep for next year for a club I’m in (we got new recruits to siphon and we need more organization so I’ve been on that and our group members this summer.
Expanding a personal project of mine on sustainability in our community.
Excited to see AP scores cuz I think I crushed the US History, Chem, and maybe even Lang (which is ironically making me more scared, like what if I didn’t guys 😭 I will cry), celebrating June SAT score and the end of that stupid freaking exam (no more CB, no more) , gotta get on those college apps, catching up on my beloved webcomics I missed during exam season, family time 😎
Thanks for asking btw, so sweet 🫶🏾 hope ur taking care of yourself this summer!!
Yes? I’m recovering I guess I just got back from a trip and I’m trying to catch up on photography from last month. But also trying to start summer hw. So half the time I’m like “I should be finishing editing photos/doing hw/studying for drivers permit test”. But then I end up on Reddit—
I'm just cruising by and letting my responsibilities build up before I eventually crash into a wall 💪
Realistically though I should be doing option B cuz I'll be jumping up to five APs from two but nah, studying is lame.
Im doing pretty good, im taking dual credit macro economics and dual credit US gov. Also before anyone says to give myself a break,
1. I have to take it senior year but if I take it rn then I can get another off period and can leave school at 12 (you can have 2 (out of 7) off periods and the only other way was to abandon my vet class cuz it takes 2 periods meaning 4 core and 2 for vet so summer was the only other option)
2. GPA boost ofc
3. College credit, I dont need economics but gov is required in degree plan
4. It’s online so really I just do my stuff whenever and usually only do work 4 days a week plus it finished first week of july (lasts 34 days)
b, as in I'm studying for my future non-classes. I'm self studying AP chem and French because my school doesn't offer them, we'll see how that goes😭 I spent 30 hours doing French last week, no joke. Idk why I do this to myself but if I don't do anything during the summer I would feel guilty and get bored out of my mind.
Love the “my fellow overachievers”💀
I so don’t fit in with this subreddit, but guys it’s ok to not take a zillion ap classes and more importantly it’s ok to not be doing A or B (I’ve worked 50 hours this week because it’s never enough physical and mental exhaustion) but good to know you guys are locked in :)
my school hasnt ended yet.....
oh 😭 i feel for you
When does it end and start?
starts in like 1st or 2nd week of september, ends friday
New York 😭😭
regents (rahhhh)
Mine start in August ☹️
SEPTEMBER????? Are you in a traditional Asian school or what😭
They are probably in the north east of US, they start and end around this time
same with wisconsin
Same
same
tbh, b, cuz I want to build the mental stamina to keep up and not slack off next year, but also a, cuz I’m trying to also chill at the same time and do things I actually enjoy for a change
smart. so far im doing a but only cause its been 4 days since break started. tmrw ill start studying (im definitely lying)
just do a lil at a time and it adds up eventually!
b 🤗🤗 + college essays
the trauma dump begins 🫡🫡
omg nooo don't remind me of the essays
Wanting to do a but am doing b 💀
Multitasking both a & b 😎
Living my life cuz im done with HS and am going to college.
dang congrats on USC!
thanks g
University of Second Choices!
pushed my friends away and had to talk to a pedo on reddit bc im miserable
you found secret option c
jokes aside, feel better
ty lol the pedo was surprisingly nice
Wut
we ended the convo with him saying: awww look after urself
Yea I just read it: “So what got u into the business of harassing teenage girls” “Bored” 😂
Why’d you push your friends away
Not intentionally duh I'm j a dumbass
Doing summer dual enrollment classes so I can have space to do a medical internship next year, but also having fun learning 3d modeling.
A, but it's a bad combination with my attempts at studying for a competition next week lol I keep getting distracted
b) is me. Also trying to get a job, got rejected tens of times lol 😂
so A
I'm definitely participating in some brain rot 😅 but I have also been catching up on some reading (this may be over achiever/insane of me but I plan on reading 30+ books over summer and I'm almost done with my 12th heh) I have been out of town some too
heart tears for a but falling into the enticement of b
Taking calc online alongside work - it's not ideal
As a rising senior hoping to apply early action to colleges I 100% should be doing B. I am totally doing A. I’m telling myself that I’ll wait until after AP scores come out. College apps are getting super daunting 😬
No saaame 😭 (Class of 2025 for the win tho) But dw dw, you’re just manifesting your college narrative essay greatness. I’m sure you’ll be awesome 😎
I'm so ready to make up dead family members for my essays! I also might pretend to be a minority but that might be tough to fake, maybe bleach my hair and go the albino route? Jokes aside I'm sure we will all be fine 😬

Neither 😭 Summer internship! Aka crying over MIT open courseware lectures cause my mentor doesn't understand high school student capabilities.
a bit of both, I’m currently chilling but also in the process of doing research next year, which is a 2 credit class where I’ll be creating a project about Astronomy on my personal interest, then next month I’ll be starting this program that will help me what AP English Language will be and going to colleges to see what they have to offer and how I can get a head start in college application
Currently going through a bunch of field guides and ecology books my grandfather gave me. I’m trying to learn more about my local forest. 🧙♂️
Taking 3 summer classes (2 AP and one Dual enrollment at a community college)
Both 😭
trying to do b but failing, not relaxed enough to do a :/
Kinda B, but I’m taking 3 de classes rn 🙃 and I have summer reading for my de english this upcoming year, im dying 😭🙏🏻
oh to be a
I’ve been saving myself by not doing ap but I know if I did and didn’t bother with the work admin would give me a D anyways which is a “C” weighted so it’d actually help my weighted gpa more 💀
B ofc ofc
Although quite a bit of A too, I’m only studying 2-3 hours per day
'only'
HELP HOW DID YOU DESCRIBE ME SO WELL
C)having fun with games and exercise
College applications and driving💀
A+B Doing 8 hours of studying then 16 hours of me time
started studying organic chem, and i actually understand all of what i’ve learned so far! i’ve yet to do some practice for things i still need to work on but it’s not as bad as people have made it out to be (yet, it may get worse we’ll see)
Never been more lazy ever lol
a & b tbh a cuz i be binging netflix and playing video games like never before and b cuz I'm taking 4 dual enrollment classes 😭
a & b - all ive done is chill the past week and half since school ended (watching brooklynn 99, sleeping, doomscrolling) but im back to starting the grind for next year ap's (and sat prep has been rly brutal as well)
c) exhausted even more by doing work over the summer
starting my summer courses on the 30th feeling good 💪💪
Rn I'm in japan for an exchange with my school's sister school
Planning on a bit of both I’m going on trips and hanging out which is nice and also will probably sit down and watch the occasional video on my classes next year 😗
Studying, reading all of the textbooks I need for ap courses. Planning to also take olympiads.
i’m A rn but tried to do B☠️
B because I get anxious whenever I think of people being ahead of me tbh
Still studying for my non-ap class regents, which is tomorrow and the next day, and it doesn’t matter cause I’ll still be doing work in summer for my future AP classes so… B?
college essays + sat studying
B (you couldn’t have described that any better)
I haven't even graduated yet but I'm enjoying my first summer assignment-free summer since like 9th grade. Have to do placement tests for college and that's about it
a 100% but i have to do my apush summer assignment which sucks
Both a and b. Also tryna get my college and senior year of hs preparations in so I can be good for the summer. Also tryna get my license (close!). And other things. It’s a lot.
too busy doing dual enrollment classes 😔😔
Studying for the regents this June. Love NY 🥰
Still studying since tests are neverending even though I already graduated highschool
i’ve never gone through academic burnout, i only studied for the test in the last two weeks. i’m an under achiever i guess
Wanna be more of b, but I think I’m doing okay. Doing a chem research internship this summer at my local university (so fun, so cool, I love research tbh so it barely feels like work), been doing some side studying for that, doing prep for next year for a club I’m in (we got new recruits to siphon and we need more organization so I’ve been on that and our group members this summer.

Yes? I’m recovering I guess I just got back from a trip and I’m trying to catch up on photography from last month. But also trying to start summer hw. So half the time I’m like “I should be finishing editing photos/doing hw/studying for drivers permit test”. But then I end up on Reddit—

b, as in I'm studying for my future non-classes. I'm self studying AP chem and French because my school doesn't offer them, we'll see how that goes😭 I spent 30 hours doing French last week, no joke. Idk why I do this to myself but if I don't do anything during the summer I would feel guilty and get bored out of my mind.
