High School
I'm going into a High School program(i just got outta middle school) that is suppose to be sooo hard that students who go there get so much work you have to spend the night studing and don't have time for a real life. I even have to go to summer school to get in. My mom's making me go. Worse of all i never do my homework. I've started working already to get ready. But i'm scared stiff. Any advice to help me be inspired to do my homework will help because i'm not sure how long this 'studying' will last.

Maybe give some free advice about: School?
Been there, done that! Most of this 'staying up studying all night' is from students who procrastinate, or put off work until the last minute. You can avoid that by doing homework right after you get it. Avoiding homework doesn't cut it. Set aside two hours a night to do homework, then spend an hour on break. Repeat as necessary. And don't say, "I'll just check my E-mail, then do the homework." Do the homework. Get it over with. Don't procrastinate.

I wouldn't trust that the school's going to be that difficult unless you get it from a reliable source. People tend to exaggerate that stuff quite a bit. But if it is as tough as you say it is, then procrastination will become your biggest enemy. Make sure you're on top of your game at all times. Don't hesitate to do work that needs to be done, get it done right away. And studying always comes with school. It's something that will never change. But a tip, instead of doing studying all at once. The day you learn something, maybe when you're doing homework or something like that, just go over what you learned that day for about 5 or 10 extra minutes. Believe me, if you leave it all to study in one night it becomes overwhelming. And also, make sure to make time to have fun! Don't worry so much about what's going to happen at this new school, and when it does happen, don't study so much that you become a slave to it! You sound like that is what you might start doing which is definatly not a good thing to do. Just relax and be prepared, in the end i'm sure everything will work out for the best and studying will be worth it. But don't procrastinate!

I am in advanced math, so I know how you must feel. It's overwhelming at times, and there is a lot of homework. Write down your assignments all the time. If the homework is difficult, organize a study group to meet after school with some of the other kids in your class.

Well, only you can choose to do your homework, no one can choose that for you. They can tell you do to it, but its all up to you. You know what's coming, so maybe that will be a little push to start doing some of the homework! Good luck! And remember, NO ONE likes to do homework so your not alone.
