Studying was a major part of Classes offer challenges
students' lives . With the struggle of AP
classes and the IB program, they had to be both inside and outside
prepared for a challenge. Whether they of school.
thought the class was extremely difficult or
exceedingly simple, students always found
it necessary to look over the material
before a test.
"AP Biology is one of my hardest
classes. I have to make sure I sta rt studying
for the. tests a few days in advance," junior
Erica Langnas said.
Students found that they all ha..ve
different study methods. While so me liked
to use flash ca rds, others preferred study
groups.
"Whenever I have a test in
Advanced Algebra me and my friends get
together at Barnes and Noble to have a
study session . We help each other
understand all the material that we will be
tested over on the exam," junior Carrie
Novak said.
Tests and quizzes were not the
only thing on students' minds. Th ey had
homework to worry about as well. Some
decided to take a study hall to lesse n the
work load at home, but others thought a
study hall was unnecessary. Eith er way
they found a way to get their homework
done.
"I have so much homework. On
an average night I do at least one hour of
it. All my teachers seem to ass ign big
assignments on the same night," junior
Jake Behrens sa id.
Whether students were studying
for a test or just finishing an ass ignment, in
the long run, it took preparation for each
class in ord er to complete homework and
pass exams.
