So recently I have not been able to stand school. This year I hate my classes. I truthfully find most of them uninteresting and useless and I can't help myself from wishing that I could take all History and English classes in high school like I hope to do in college. I'm sure all of you have taken classes that you couldn't stand. How do you get through the classes and keep good grades in them without going crazy. I can't stand Lab Chemistry to a point where studying for it just becomes depressing. Now don't get me wrong I'm not failing the class but I'm not doing great. I'm some where in the C range. Anyway does anyone have any advice on how to push through classes that you can't stand? Thanks in advance.

Dude, I took a college sociology class this year, but really it's a class in hyper feminist extremism. If you're in High School, you've got it easy... Just bring a gameboy. (actually, I had a jailbroken iPod Touch)

Dude I'm not aloud too. If I get caught with any type of electronic device I get 2 days of central office detention.

Ha, ouch. Try case-modding an old gameboy advance SP into a calculator shell. Just kidding.

 IMO, if your going to community college before university (which you should do), your highschool grades won't matter too much in the long run, so don't sweat it, just make sure you pass. Just chillax.

I took an Immunology class that really tested my patience. All I did was re-read everything and try to apply it to situations that were interesting. And remember, we all had/have classes that are just awful. Sorry to say, but I just sucked it up and got through the class. I got an A, but I actually got a group together and it made it less horrible.

High school is a joke, if you're making C's you're not trying. I was three years younger than everyone else and my GPA was a 3.5 even considering the classes I sucked in (such as English and history). College will rape you with a cactus.

Meh, not really. I'm not struggling in college. I graduated with the class of '08, didn't give a fuck and got C's. I'm actually getting A's and B's in college, because I actually care now. But the first few years of community college aren't a big deal.

Success in school is always about trying and hard work.  That's basically the whole point of education and getting a degree.  Certification of diligence and conformity, and making you indebted to the system.

I barely pay attention in my classes; I mostly play games on my calculator. But I still pull together A's and B's.

you never know what will be useful to you in the future and what won't be, yesterday's bombcast showed that when the audio guy actually wanted to attend the seminars not in his field.

Hold of the work and do it when you feel like it. I found that this works most of the time. I almost always have something I bring to class to interest me if the classes don't.

I hate history, I pretty much just read through the work when it comes to a test. Don't expect to get great marks. 50-60% should be enough if you don't plan to pursue the subject after highschool anyways though.

I hate literature but I have to resist. and it's natural, if education was not a force major, most of students around the world wouldn't care even about literation. (Why literature should be called literature? if you've mistaken me, by literature, I mean science and knowledge about poetry. useless thing.)

I'm the exact opposite. All my classes this trimester are really easy. So the only thing I hate about school is getting up early.

I know this doesn't help you now, but when you get to college you'll realize how easy highschool work is.

Hahaha, right...  dude, high school is easy, the classes are a joke, when you get to a real college, then you will get raped.  enjoy high school for what it is, go out with friends check out girls.
tips, pay fucking attention and then you will not have to study so hard, in high school the teachers teach everything in the class so you probably do even have to read the book.

Sleep in class, get the homework from someone else, and then cram for tests and exams.
