Hi, i am a sufferer of severe senioritis.

Please tell me that there are others who suffer from this unrelenting, and psychologically aggressive pandemic.
Can I safely take my foot off the gas and coast for the next three weeks?
CAN I! ARE YOU!

is this report card important?! COMFORT ME!
TELL ME I CAN TURN OFF THE AFTER BURNERS. and go on youtube, read a book, go out with friends, and be at peace with my morals and values?

CAN I SAFELY SAY I"M DONE WITH HIGHSCHOOL!

I HATE SCHOOOOLLL!!

pshhh an 88 average is no worse than a 92, like c'monnn. blahhh. I"M GOING CRAZYY! lets talk

Oh my goodness -

I'm only taking Gr12 Comm Tech (for the second time through, mainly for fun) in 2ns period, and an afternoon co-op at my local paper (which doesn't count at all marks-wise, but only to put in a resume/application "I co-oped at wrote articles for my local paper!").

I've missed every Comm. Tech. class for at least the past week and a half (I'm going tomorrow though!), and I'm behind on at least one assignment (I just need half an hour to type it up! ... yeah!). I may be behind on hours for co-op but I don't really care about that. Comm tech though... it's mark actually somewhat matters, so I better get workin this next 2-3 weeks ;).

Same. I have 2nd semester senioritis too man. real bad.

I only have to get like an 80 to retain my scholarship/admission, so I'd have to drop a good 10%....
Nowadays, I've been doing about 1/2 hour of hmwk max, maybe once, twice a week. skipped a class (which is a big deal in my school: you get a suspension if you're caught), showing up late, going out on school nights, haven't started studying for exams yet either (and they start in 2 weeks, and i'm gone for 3 days for ofsaa....). Can't wait for this summer though, it will be legen-wait for it - dary.

I only have to keep an 85% to keep the 1,500 from western (90% to get 2000, the difference isn't that large) so now I study for tests the morning of (morning spare, aw yeeaaahhh) and never do homework anymore. Calc marks already dropped 5-7%

Wow my senioritis is so bad its not even funny

Religion-have dropped from an 86 at midterm to 72
Data-Just bombed a test
Functions-Retook it for a nice midterm mark but no its no use to me and guidance wont let me drop it so i dont go anymore
Family Studies-Slack

Not to mention I have 3 culmunatings due within two weeks and i havent started any of them.
Good thing Ivey doesn't have any requirements other than BMOS's 79%.

Wow you guys are lucky... UofT will kick me out if I drop too much... and the problem is, they don't even give like a specific avg, just a vague statement that if my marks decrease significantly, the offer will be withdrawn frown ... so I keep working... 20 more days left... well a bit more ^^"

lol i dont write notes in any classes and when the teacher asks what im doing i tell them " i got into uni straight up" Some even laugh and say good excuse.

I have even gave myself some extra long weekends of my own. Couple more weeks and i shall make my own 7 day weekend.

Yah, I'm suffering from a case of chronic senioritis, due partly to this forum.
Too bad I need to keep at least a 90% average, but meh, that still lets me go down 16% in total.

Pourquoi?

I haven't done physics homework in about a month.. uhoh.

My average can drop 19% before i lose my scholarship and acceptance.
I'm hoping i can manage to not drop that much. Though with my lack of
studying and the mofo diploma exams i have coming up who knows.

You can do whatever you want. Just be prepared if a university takes their offer away because you slacked off.

Go down 16% on the total of the 6 courses i think is what is meant.
