Your lucky I have 3 papers (granted two of them are easy) 3 tests (one of which is easy one of which doesnt matter) and 300 pages of a book to read this week. I dont think I will read all of the book.

Before I register for classes, I always use sites like www.ratemyprofessors.com to cherry pick so I have to do as little work as possible. It's worked well for me so far.

I don't really see what your problem is. For my classes, I often have to read complete novels (500 pages), plus translate a text, plus read a chapter from a book (50 pages), plus read assorted poems (20 pages).

You sound like my little brother, but he's 17 and in 11th grade.

If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen.

Stereo,

Is it possible you didn't make an appropriate choice for your college education?

I don't know what you're studying and what your aptitudes are, but would you consider pulling out of there, making a bit of time in the labour force, and then thinking about that education as a mature student? ...Or review your future plans and try to make a more appropriate choice?

It seems to me that the college experience should be pleasurable, that you'd be acing a lot of your courses (bad profs set aside), and that it be the sign that you've made it beyond that almost prison-like drudgery that is high school.

Like sleepflower says... there is an alternative
