I usually get to bed by 11 PM and fall asleep at around 11:30. I've never really done an all nighter because of school work, even when I have a LOT of homework xD. I manage to finish it in time

try by 9, 10 at the latest. I usually actually end up going to bed somewhere in between. for me not enough sleep = failure. at school, socializing- everything. I have to make sure I get enough

After finishing my first Grading period this year(Jr Year) I usually went to bed between 9:30-10:30. On a bad night anywhere from 12:00 on. The latest so far has been 1:30(which was the grading period)This was with only one AP class, AP Micro/Macro Econ, which is taught by a dummy at my school so I do a lot of extra studying.

This grading period and on will be a little harder because I'm Looking to raise my GPA above 4.0. (I got a 3.958 first grading period) I also moved up from normal to honors English because my English teacher literally teaches at a sixth grade level. The difference between normal and honors English is probably the difference between 5th and 6th grade.haha

I believe I can max out at a GPA of 4.25 with one AP and one honors. So I'm prepared to stay up until 12:00 and past on a regular basis.

Does anyone have any tips to stay energized to make up for the loss of sleep that you get through staying up later??? I find that my reaction time decreases, along with my attention span, and overall cheerfulness whenever I stay up past 12. (I wake up at 5:49 on school nights)

Haha, PicktownPenguin...I WISH I had tips for staying energized. I'm like a zombie at school sometimes. Honestly, I think I've just gotten using to generally being slightly sleep-deprived and I don't even notice it until I get a vacation and I'm like WOW I'm actually a much happier, more energetic person than you'd think. Then school starts again and my cheerfulness is gone....

10 o clock.

I have never stayed up for studying/homework and I never will. I have 4 APs and an online course. Time management = more sleep yay

I rarely sleep in class, I am fully alert and I retain most of what is being taught during lecture. This saves so much time in the long run... you don't have to plow through tons of notes and stuff the day before exams

One of my roommates is in sports, so she's in bed by 11:30. I've gotten so used to it that I end up sleeping around 11 myself! It's nice -- I can get up at 7 and take a nice hour-long bike ride before heading to class at 9.
