It’s May and you have to begin preparing for a test that will tell you how well you have mastered an already difficult class. The AP exam has discouraged many students from even attempting the course that they are interested in. I am someone who was scared but I learned how to prepare for the AP exam and found it rather successful. As a sophomore I took AP World History and received a 4 on a scale of 1-5, I also received two fours my junior year for AP U.S History and AP English III. The AP test is not there to make you fail, but to give a standard fair judgment of everyone in the nation.

High School students are known for being some of the busiest people but use their time the worst. As a senior I learned the hard way to manage time and set up a system to always know what I had that day for my schoolwork. I, myself, was a procrastinator who allowed things to happen around me and avoided taking control and found myself behind till I woke up and learned how to handle my own life. I am assuming that you don’t want the decisions made for you. So in order to keep you in control I have developed the 10 commandments of staying on top of your school load.

Wake up at 7, school starts at 8: 30 and goes till 4, then practice at 4 till 6:30 or 7. If this sounds like an average day for you then you probably have a hectic schedule to keep up with during the week. The part I left out was getting home later and doing homework, eating dinner, and occasionally talking with your family and friends. If you are like I was my freshman and sophomore year you have a hard time balancing school and sports. Well I am not saying I have figured it all out but I did come up with a few tips and tricks to balancing a busy but productive life.
