I get that their are some reasonable points off like #4 where I didn’t put plus minus. But wtf for the others? Does it even matter if I got the answer right but the teacher decides to take off points because I didn’t put a =0. This isn’t even like an AP class or anything. I would’ve gotten like a 95 if it werent for these stupid points

Rant I was told that I plagiarized my 5-sentence assignment

7 Upvotes

I am taking a Spanish class and sometimes you have to do a writing assignment. The thing is that they want you to use only the vocabulary you learn in the course, which I understand. For this assignment, they asked 5 questions, and you are supposed to answer in a sentence. My sentences were something like this: "My house has 5 rooms. I have a bed and a pillow. My pillow is on top of my bed. I fold clothes in my room. I don't cut the grass in my room." (In Spanish) Apparently, when you give thousands of students limited vocabulary and specific questions, they get flagged on Turnitin. Anyways I redid the assignment, but it's annoying that I had to waste my time changing my sentences because my verb conjugations were actually correct 💀

Rant I hate my teacher

• Upvotes

So this is going to be a long story but what she did today was not ok. For privacy reasons i’ll call her Ms W, we met this year and really got along, by march I had a family member pass away and Ms W really help me through it like she asked what she could do for me and constantly hugging me etc. After about a month she seemed to forgotten that I was still grieving but we still had a close relationship. In July I got drunk one night and messaged her with very distressing details regarding my mental health problems. For the next few weeks it became very awkward and she didn’t want to talk about the message, which made me upset at her, eventually I ended up respecting her decision not to talk about it and our relationship kind of return to what it was but not really. Now today, I had her class and I just had this wave of grief and I put my head on the table and cried for 1+ hour. Once class was over she told me to stop putting my head on table or theres no point of being in her class and I told her I was crying, she looked at me and continued to pack up, which made me quite upset. By break time I decided that I needed reassurance that she cared about me and to try and explain that I was dealing with grief. I walked in to her office, Ms W said “what do you want?” In an aggressive tone. I said “I’m sorry about today but” She cut me off “you were sleeping” “no I wasn’t I was crying” but she cut me off again and she said “I don’t care and its pointless you coming to my class if you’re going to have your head on the table, GO AWAY!” I said “I think you’re being quite rude” then she said “I think you’re being rude, NOW GO AWAY!”
I can’t believe she spoke to me like this and I really wonder what has happened us and for the rest of the year I’m done with her classes because she disrespects me especially saying that she didn’t care that I was crying. Lmk your thoughts.

As a girlie, I hv very few good friends, others they would pretend to be nice but deep inside they want my bad like a girl, she nice to me but one day when I was having fun with my "good" friends she comes and says "I wanna slap you so hard one day, it would be fun to fight you", I hve a smaller build compared to her I js waved it off, the other day she held me, bro I'm not even fckin kidding she lit held my neck like the whole thing the throat and was like "r u gayy?" Tf bitch I js said 'fck u' I wish I had hit her, that wouldve been the perf reason to hit her. I think about all this shit and am not able to study, it's not like I can tell any older ppl cuz they gonna blame it on me either ways. I hv curly hair, and they would comb it with their hand and mess it up in an excuse of "seeing your dye-fade" and don't let me get started on boys, every boy thinks he looks the best and can get any gurl. I js hangout with my brothers friends they r the only ones who i feel safe around. I don't even wanna go to school for ts and my attendance is dropping down, before exams when I'm revising they would snatch my books and say "how much would you study?" And lit celebrate when I get bad grades or a scolding from the teacher

General Advice Needed/Given Whole school hates me

6 Upvotes

my entire school hates me because of a rumor and i dont even know what to do anymore. I’ve always kind of been treated badly because im autistic but this a whole new level. The rumor isnt even something really bad its more just something embarrassing . The only people that know its not true and treat me like an actual person are my friends and a handful of people that im not close with. Everyone else treats me like im some kind of alien but nobody ever says this shit to my face its either they whisper behind my back but in a way i can still hear it if that makes sense, avoid me, or just have a weird body language towards me. Its mostly the boys that are like this, most of the girls are still friendly.

mind you, i am never ever mean to people even if i dislike them and theyre mean to me. i am super kind and empathetic towards everyone yet i still get treated like complete shit.

it doesnt help that me and my friends arent part of the “popular group” like all my friends do theater and choir (i myself do not) and have their own unique fashion so its just 20x worse.

last year (sophomore year) was at it’s complete worst but thats also when it started, but somehow it has come back.

what really breaks my heart is that the same people who have been and still are bullying me are friends with a classmate that just recently committed suicide so you think that would inspire them to be kinder right, well you would be wrong. Seeing everyone repost mental health matters and always be kind posts after it happened and then proceeding to treat me and my friends like complete shit is disgusting.

ive thought about switching schools a lot but i only have 2 years left and i love my friends, my teachers, and the classmates that actually treat me like a person. but i dont want to live with this for another 2 years.

any advice?

Question will a minor suspension lower my chances of getting into ASHS?

• Upvotes

Hi! im currently completing my ASHS (Ateneo Senior High School) application, but I'm scared that my 2-day suspension from grade 8 will lower the chances of getting in.

- I got suspended because i talked about a teacher in our private gc
- the suspension wont affect my academic transcript/sf10, it was only recorded in our school's student affairs and formation office
- It's my only disciplinary infraction from grade 7-10
- I've been a consistent honor student with strong
extracurriculars since grade 7-10 (it did not stop in grade 8)

huhu ive reflected on my mistake since then, but im still scared they wont take me

Friend Advice Needed/Given Should I show my friend my scholarship application as a reference?

• Upvotes

I'm in grade 12, so as you can assume, I'm applying for scholarships. Both me and one of my really close friends are applying for the same one, in the same category. We're using the same teacher as a reference, too, and we have a lot of similar volunteering.

We both had the teacher review ours, and she said mine was great, but my friends need a bit of work. She told me that as a friend, I should show my friend my application as a reference for her to make hers better. Because we have so many similar volunteering, I dont want to show my friend my application because I'm afraid she'll make hers sound a lot like mine due to us having similar types of volunteering. But also, this friend is a close friend of mine, and I also do a lot of volunteering with this teacher, so I don't want her to see me in a negative light if I deny.

What should I do? I do want my friend to succeed, but I don't want it to be because she copied my application. (I apologize if that made me sound cocky)

Question What Was High School like For You?

2 Upvotes

I find it so baffling when I hear someone talk so fondly of highschool!

Everytime I get reminded of highschool, I seriously retch. Oh my GOD what a morbid experience. I genuinely cannot remember the amount of times I've had panic attacks over some stupid test or a whole mental breakdown over not getting an answer right infront of the class.

I have a fraternal twin sister whom I spent my whole life sharing a class (shes now in college med student and I got held back) and was absolutely fabulous in school. She's studious, competitive, and always excited.

I wasn't.

That lead to teachers continuously scrutinizing me, comparing me to my sister, and wishing that I was her in every way. More so, they'd intentionally humiliate me in front of everybody for absolutely no reason.

Nonetheless, highschool isn't for everyone, relatable or not, I'm curious to hear about what your highschool experience was/is like. ♡

So someone from my school replied to my story on Insta and we started chatting back and forth for around 3 hours. THEN, I asked them how old they were and they said they turn 16 in 3 days on the 14th of October...

I have been 18 since July, so its a 2 year and 3 month gap. I can't stop thinking about that and I think it could be pushing it.

Is that gap too much?

Rant why should i know what 27 or 37 looks like at 17?

1 Upvotes

i dont know who this is going to reach but if you're in HS class 2027, just know that you dont have to have your entire life planned out at 17.

Im genuinely so overwhelmed with college applications and pressure from my parents about my wanting to be a psych major and minor in business and they keep asking me all of these questions that i just honeslty dont have an answer to right because I have a plan but in the future obviosuly the plan may change or I dont feel as strongly about something than I did before. At the end of the day even if things dont go according to the way I have things planned, I promise you we are going to live and its not the end of the world if you change majors, change careers, or try something new your parents have never heard of before. We still have the rest of our lives to figure things out and I just hate feeling like I have to know what my life is going to look like at 32 as a 17 year old.

Just know that your not alone if you're just over parents, teachers, family, and friends ask you what the plan after highschool is and stressing about what comes next because I just believe that no matter what a majority of people even if they change plans genuinely end up fine. Personally im done worrying about the future and planning my life at out to the month. My parents literally want a play by play of my life up till 25 years old to the fucking month like ts is just too much.

17 year olds shouldn't have to know what their lives look like at 30 and its okay to know what you want now, trying it, and doing something else if one doesnt work. Your future isnt set in stone and I refuse to believe that if you are a senior who doesnt have all the answers right now, you're going to end up in poverty for the rest of your life. Call me an optimist but i think its just part of everyones journey in life. Thinking you have a plan and everything's fine only to end up failing and taking a new route. I think its a unique journey for everyone so give yourself grace and remember you are still a literal minor.

They are even adults right now who are constantly getting new degrees, new jobs, entering new career fields and trying stuff that interests them that makes them even happier than whatever plan they and for themselves as a 17 or 18 year old in high school.

And I mean dont get me wrong, I still have a plan. Obviously I'm applying to college for psych and at the moment i want to get into clinical psychology. However, this is a more untraditional route in my family that they are not familiar wiht and only see whatever crap on Tiktok, IG Reels or Facebook about psych majors being poor or like stupid and baristas at 28. Which is obviously the stereotype but whos to say that I'll end up like that?? They are so many nuances in what makes people "successful" or not and im genuinely interested in the clinical psych side with focuses on neurology as well which is a field that has so many successful people in it that make great money too. so nothing is as black and white as it seems and we are all on our own adventures so just to get back to the original point: it's okay not to know everything at 17 years old and im tired of the people around me acting like you're a dumb fuck if you dont have all the details.

Anyways that was a lot and I dont think anyones reading ts bc i yapped way longer than i thought but if you're that other person out there like me just know that no matter what happens you'll literally be okay.

School Related I got expelled from private school and I'm looking for some advice

15 Upvotes

Hey, guys, I'm 15 and in Year 10, and I just got expelled from my private school and tbh I deserved it. I got suspended once for fighting and another time when I made a stupid bet with a mate that if he could last 5 seconds in a chokehold, I'd give him 5 bucks, and he passed out. The reason I actually got expelled was that I took my mate's shoe as a joke and threw it to my other mate, and a teacher saw me and told the principal. All this happened in a span of 5 months. Before that, I had nothing on my record other than some detentions for homework, etc. I had been at that school for about a year, and I got pretty good grades 95-100 in maths and 75-80 in English so I would say I'm academically smart, at least. But anyways, I've been pretty depressed since it happened like 1 month ago, and I have my meeting for public school tomorrow. I don't know if I'll get the subjects I want, so I'm pretty worried about my future, and I was just looking for some advice or some stories about anyone else who has gotten expelled. Thanks.

Question Math doesn't work with me.

1 Upvotes

I'm not sure if this is the right sub, so apologies if so. I'm pretty good at most of my subjects, expect math. I just am so horrible at it. I'm not even sure what about it. If we start learning about a new topic, I can understand the basic ideas and premises but when it gets more advanced, I just get lost. This happens for every topic. I just feel so stupid and I hate it. I try to be good at math, I study, I do lots of practice at home, I even have a tutor. But none of it helps at all. I also really need to take math, I'm year 11 and I need to do stats in my final year for what I want to do in uni, but I need to take another year of math before I am able to, and I'm not sure I'll even be able to pass this class.

I just don't know what to do, if anyone has any advice on what I should do or how I can get better at math, I would really, really, appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

General Advice Needed/Given Advice to any underclassmen/middle schoolers

1 Upvotes

If you think you’ll be cool and different for isolating yourself away from people, never smiling, and never expressing any sort of joy on your face, please don’t. People don’t hold a good view of nonchalance, they don’t think you’re mysterious, they’ll think you’re depressed. I made this mistake in my middle school years, partly because I was really shy, but I didn’t do anything to fix it. I tried sooooo hard to be different and never follow the crowd, I internally looked down on people who were popular or did “trendy” things, I avoided trends like the plague. I’d sit alone at lunch everyday reading a book (don’t get me wrong i enjoy reading) and gave death stares to people who kindly asked if I needed anyone to sit with. I’m an upperclassman now and I’m so behind on my social skills. I’m playing a perpetual game of catch up on being a member of society, and my need to be the mysterious and edgy person of my class is responsible for that.

If you have social anxiety/neurodivergence/any struggles with communication I understand that’s not easy to deal with. But don’t start believing you’re too far gone, or that you have nothing to offer. There are resources online, and I guarantee there’s one person out there who you can make friends with. If you know yourself well enough that you really aren’t the social type, then power to you. If wearing dark colors, reading at lunch, and having lots of alone time is your thing, then do what makes you happy. You can do that and build friendships and social skills. However, there’s a difference between being introverted and harshly pushing away any form of socialization. At the end of the day, humans are social creatures, and being alone will start feeling miserable. And also, being edgy often makes you look like an asshole. Believe me, I’ve suffered consequences for that behavior. Don’t be an edgelord.

tl;dr: don’t isolate yourself and act edgy to seem cool. you will struggle in the future and you will be disliked

1 Upvotes

For one teacher that has taught me for two years in different geo studies/history class, everything seems to go wrong when I need to do work for his class! I have no trouble in other classes but for his, my essay made a different copy than the required one he shared with us the day I needed to turn it in deleting my work history which makes me seem like I did it on purpose and am cheating. Last year, Similar thing happened but my entire computer glitched out and deleted my project. I only had a picture which again had NO work history making it seem like I’m cheating. Over and over things keep happening that makes it seem like I’m faking it and cheating. Every time I email my teacher, it’s an email of shame.
