What grade?

One jam packed grade 11 semester (all academics and one ib course)

+ the fact my ib chemistry teacher teaches Spoon (basically our real teacher got in a car crash and is now off the entire semester which wee were then given a guy as a substitute until he became full time) it's either you get what he's talking about or you don't.

It's horrible, i have to read from a complicated textbook and understand things on my own; such a hard course with such little help.

coupled with that, my test is soon!!! and I've done no studying atm

and i have a socials project, ugh... (and it's late, double ugh...)

Yeah, I didn't particularly like Chemistry much either. Too much remembering.

Heh, yr11 isn't that bad. You'll find yr 12 to be somewhat worse, and in only gets gets harder as you progress further (unless you do some really easy uni course).

The reason why you're finding it so bad is probably because everything before is such a pushover, so the transition to actual serious stuff will probably hit you a bit. I mean back then in yr 8 and 9 I pretty much never even listened to the teacher during stuff like maths. Me and a friend would sit there talking and drawing random pictures all day, some other guys did that too. And despite never listening in class, all my tests would score higher than 95%. And then at one time the teacher got really pissed and told one guy (who was like playing cards or something) that if he didn't get perfect score on the test, she would get him in massive trouble. So he crammed a few hours on the day before the test and got a 100%, and he showed the teacher, who got like full pissed off. Compare that to now, I pretty much have go home and study on the material taught in the lecture just to be able to understand the next lecture.
