School is everything i'm not

[Idee17]

I'm 15 and a sophomore in high school

I've always disliked school, i would be board to tears most of the time (except for a few teacher's classes). But recently my grades have been slipping. I've never had to try to hard to get As (excluding english, I work my butt of in there, dyslexic...). I would just pay attention during class due the homework and that was that. But i can't seem to focus anymore. It's shouldn't be hard so hard to pay attention. I've always tested high (IQ ~137, ACT >32 etc) and wanted to go to MIT for a long time, but i might be ruining my chances with a potentially low GPA.

Any thoughts?

Could be attention deficit disorder.

Hmm, can that start in teen year?

Mmm I think I might get what you mean. I used to just be fine with paying attention and doing homework, but I mean, maybe the problem isn't as bad as you think :) I think you just finally hit the point where you actually have to study some.

Wow. That sucks.

How much sleep are you getting? That can make a big difference.
