Re: The negative effects of FRC
As someone who threw their life at a team my Junior and Senior years of high school (my 2nd and 3rd years respectively on the team) I can attest that it was a lot of time and a lot of commitment. But I loved every moment of it!
Would I have had more time to study and do homework had I not been on an FRC team that pulled 9 hours in weekdays and a 9 hour Saturday during build season? Absolutely yes, but knowing how I feel about school and always have felt about it I almost would've certainly just used that time to play video games and hangout with friends and put the same amount of work in.
