High school students: How much homework do you have?

[Pasta67]

Him, not her.

Yes, I'm male. Its probably really evident, given my username "Alan".

Alan, Eatmorchiken didn't think you were a girl, he thought Escapay was.

"Nala" is also "Alan" spelled backwards, how wonderful is that!

Random.....

Just so this post isn't spam, I've had a huge amount of homework lately. AP World History is killing me.

Horray for on-topicness.......

[Escapay]

Ok, fine. If you don't want to believe me, you don't have to.

Just had to pop in and say this:

Obviously, you DID NOT read my last reply, or you simply skimmed it...

Well let me tell you, people like me who TRY HARD an study like crazy DO have 4 hours of homework every night, whether you believe it or not.

Fine, I believe it.

and

But you're you, and if you insist that you take 4 hours to do homework, more power to you.

I bolded the part where I'm basically giving Alan the benefit of the doubt. He has four hours of homework, and while I'll find the concept ridiculous, I cannot argue with it anymore.

I can't believe how people can't accept that I have four hours of homework.

I gave you two quote above that shows that I'm basically believing you. I don't know you or your personal life, so I have to give you the benefit of the doubt and say that you do have four hours of homework. But I still stand by my opinion that I find the entire concept of four hours of homework ridiculous! How many times do I have to say it? It's MY opinion, not to be taken for flat fact, yet you still keep thinking that I don't believe that you have four hours of homework. I don't know what else to say anymore, it just flies over your head, doesn't it?

Whatever.

Geez, the things I say always end up misconstrued and I have to waste my time trying to fix it all only to have it be disregarded with a Whatever. Why am I even trying to get Alan to listen to me? All I'll get is a Whatever, or a "My cousin goes to Ivy League!" or "How come you don't believe me when I say I have Four Hours of Homework!"

If anything, the flipping of a Whatever is a sure sign that you definitely did not read my last reply, where I'm basically handing to you on a silver platter that I believe you have four hours of homework.

HEY EVERYONE, ALAN HAS FOUR HOURS OF HOMEWORK!

Is that good enough?

All I have to say is you forgot who you used to live with...

No, I definitely remember. But my opinion of four hours of homework is based on the concept of someone sitting in front of a table for four hours STRAIGHT doing nothing but homework. Like you said, you took long because of other factors. You NEVER sat down for four hours doing nothing but homework. Alan, on the other hand, is insisting that is what he does, and I am basically saying that I think the concept of it all is ridiculous.

Alan, if you actually do read this entire post and my other one, quote this and please reply that you understand. Not a limited to one-liners or a Whatever. I really really want proof that you have read and understood everything I have said.

And of course, if he skims this and doesn't bother, I'll just shake my head because my point will not be taken and I'll have wasted a lot of Luke's bandwidth trying to get my point across. So Luke, I'm extremely sorry for my lengthy posts in this topic as they fell on blind eyes. I'm gonna take a break from UD for a few days to make up for the bandwidth lost.

And I say that 4 hours of homework in High School is pretty typical. There's nothing remarkable about it. Like I said I have to study 8 hours a day in all of my classes but I also have to work so I don't actually study 8 hours a day. It's more like 1 or 3 hours a day.

Yes, thats the very essense of what I was trying to convey on this thread!

I know cuz I was there, I had to do the same exact things you're doing right now. Well not exact but I still had to do some homework and I didn't have a job so that made it easier for me.

[Alan]

On the subject of homework, I have 30 pages in my AP world history textbook (spodek) to outline tomorrow. good thing I did half of it already. AP World isn' that bad actually.

[Zoltack]

I have to finish a novel today and I have what... 180 pages to read. I better start reading. Not to mention my physics assignment is due at 11:59 tonight. And I also have to do my calculus, but I'm not going to do that until tomarrow morning. And my java project is due on Thursday and... and!!! I have an exam on Thursday as well.

That's the way I like it. Uh-huh.

Is your physics assignment from webassign? Since I had to do that a lot last year in physics (None in bio this year YES!)

[Zoltack]

No, this is college material, I'm in college. Hint... Hint. You already knew that didn't you? I don't know but yeah its a calculus based physics corse. Not easy but it's not hard either seeing how I've already taken calculus.
It's here if you're interested

actually, college students also use webassign (www.webassign.net)

[Zoltack]

Not us.
In fact CSU uses their own network to suppy students with resources and what not. Like our homework is posted on the web and we also turn in our homework on the web.

[memnv]

Do you not read Alan, Zoltack said that they are in college

[Isidour]

my assigment was to wrote 15 articles and even when they were just of six-hundred words each, I lasted like 3 hours because I didn´t remember the main plots

[Zoltack]

Speaking of which... I have to finish my homework, I still have 150 pages of that novel left to read tonight! Ahhhhh. I wish we had a machine that read the book and put it in my brain. It would be a lot faster don't ya think?

[Isidour]

it doesn´t exist a resume or something like it on internet?

[memnv]

Some books have that, They are called books on tapes or cds, My Brother-in-Law uses them, he is a Truck Driver and he does not have time to read so he listens to books

[Zoltack]

No where you put the book into the machine and it reads it in like seconds flat. Then you have a wire and hook it up to your head and it feeds you the information.
I know I gone insane.

[Isidour]

nah, just a little lazy

[memnv]

lol, One day it will happen but I doubt there will be wires, I here if you play a movie or a tape and fall asleep whatever is playing goes in your sub-conseious, I dont know how true it is though I fall asleep to the tv nightly

Actually at one time a theory like that was used in a disney movie, the movie was Monkey's Uncle.

Where they taught these kids by putting it on a lp, and putting wires on their heads and it transferred the info to their brain why they slept. Only prob was the next day in class when they answered the questions, they came out in Annette Funicello's voice lol.
