Hey dude, I was in the same boat as you once! I had around a 7 minute mile time, and I was pretty upset. I'm going into sophomore year now with a 5:45 mile time. You know what I did? I joined cross country and ran track! Both of these helped majorly with mainly speed and endurance, but also...

As a scout who got drenched last week while backpacking, I'd say don't go with the insulated version. I've got ventilated boots, which are not waterproof but they dry really quick and keep my feet cooler. They really helped and some other people on my hike had insulated boots and were not happy...

Thank you everyone for your advice. They just recently added an honors option to the online world history class, and I think I'm going to go with that. Thanks so much again.

Thanks for the advice. I'm working on my eagle scout right now, and I'm currently SPL for my troop. Next year I will be Varsity for XC, and then Junior year I will probably make varsity for track and be team captain for XC. I will most likely take AP Chem in my senior as a 4th science option, if...

I'm sure that it's already been said somewhere in here... But the discovery of the shovel was truly groundbreaking.

About 5-7 total depending upon a few decisions I make.

It's essentially self study. From what I understand, I will be doing classwork whenever I can, and it just has to be done at a certain deadline. That's great, but my concern is that I may not have enough time in my day to throw an advanced level class in addition to everything else.

Thank you everyone for your responses. I'd like to say a few more things about my situation that might bring some clarity. Next year I will be taking honors Chem, honors LA, mastery level band, JROTC, honors German 2, and gifted pre-calculus. I will also be receiving 2 embedded credits for...

No, next year is my sophomore year.

The physical threat may be scary about it, but as a current high schooler who would be considered "down in the trenches" on this kind of thing, I think the mental effect is much worse. Our social lives have been ruined, and I know of only a few people who are actually able/willing to hold a...

Guten Tag, So I've run into a but of a predicament with AP World and (eventually) APUSH. I will be taking them online since I don't want to drop my electives and still have to take more German, but I've discussed with parents and counselors and none of them advise this as AP classes shouldn't be...

Hey dude, welcome to the club. I'm sure you have a lot of the same sort of questions as me, as I also joined at around the same time you did. I'm a freshman now, and I'd be happy to answer your questions if I can. If you check out my profile, you can probably find a lot of my old posts and...

Hey y'all! I was wondering if any of you fine folks could give me some feedback on this question I have. Next year for math I'm taking pre-calc, and after that I plan on taking AP Stat since it is the only math class I'm actually interested in. Senior year I have the option of taking AP Calc AB...

Hey y'all! I haven't been online for a while, but I'm back after a semester of hs. I'm currently a freshman. I'm looking for some advice as to what to do next, especially academically, but other places if you have any. Last semester I had a 4.00 weighted gpa and my rank was 27 out of 775. I took...

Thank yall so much!
