Re: Anyone else having trouble keeping up with work?

My grades haven't really slipped that much. I did homework during down time at meetings during build season, and I also sacrificed sleep to keep my grades up. Luckily, I didn't miss much work when I was away at regionals, and since nationals are during our spring break, I won't really miss anything.

You better get that work done. It'd be a shame for 121 to lose its human player

Re: Anyone else having trouble keeping up with work?

I'm having trouble with keeping up with my schoolwork and the teachers aren't given me any breaks and they don't seem to understand that I can get a huge scholarship from being involved with robotics. Another thing is that I learn more when I'm working with my team because since I have ADD and dyslexia, I learn more when I'm doing a hands on activity and working on the robot is all hands on. So I actually learn more when I'm working with my team compared to when I'm in school.

Re: Anyone else having trouble keeping up with work?

This is going to sound so horrible but...

My grades actually get better during competition season! I guess it's cause I'm a born procrastionator and if I think I have more time to do something, I wont do it. Because MOE has such a busy and demanding schedule...I know I have to do my homework right after school or I wont be able to do it later. This forces me to do my homework and it's also helpful because my brain is still in school mode. Thus, I remember much more then I would normally.

On average, however, I do decently and I haven't had any real problems with keeping my grades up. However, I have been slipping increasingly in math due to lack of effort. I am a senior this year and in less then 29 days (maybe one or two more) I am done for the year. In other words, I have gotten senioritis.
