Focusing on Education

[Microcosm]

It's hard sometimes not to give in to peer pressure. Your friends will say things like "only nerds do their homework" or something stupid like that. I have goals and they don't stop at talking to and making friends. Anyways, what are some tips on focusing on education? I've tried bumping up my classes for next year to higher levels. For instance, rather than taking honors history I decided to go ahead and take AP(Advanced Placement) because I think I'm ready to handle it. I really want to start focusing on the rest of my life and stuff but I always feel like (a)it's not worth it or (b)I'm not trying hard enough.

I think there's not much more you can do at this stage of your education really - I mean you're already pushing yourself for higher levels (big well done for doing that by the way), which goes to show that you consider yourself capable and willing to push yourself and accept new challenges!

If you're keep on doing that after your time at school, I'm sure you'll go far because it WILL be worth it!!

Best of luck,
