(4 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I feel the same way. I have one AP class and 4 honors classes. Even with my study hall I never have enough time in the day to finish all my homework and study. Teacher's don't necessarily give a LOT of homework, but they tend to do it all at once. Two weeks ago, I had two essays, two projects, and 4 tests to study for in one weekend. That is a bit ridiculous. And my family and I went out of state that weekend. I spend most of my time stressing out about school. Any help, please?

(3 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - Teachers give a lot of homework all at once. Out of 7 teachers a day, I usually have at least 4 classes of homework daily. The days that all my teachers assign homework, I never get all my homework done. This is not because I work slow; I do not.
