<p>LUCKY</p>
<p>Does your school have this special day called “No Stress Day?” I have one this Friday, and apparently teachers aren’t allowed to give any homework on Thursday and give any tests/ quizzes on Friday. My school thought it would help decrease stress 
I think it’s a good idea, but now teachers are giving tests the following Monday since they weren’t allowed to give any on Friday. D:</p>
<p>@imhkim - Gym is always my lowest grade and it always lowers my GPA… D:</p>
<p>@Pi - What do you do in online gym? Move a virtual image of yourself on the treadmill using your mouse? (No, just kidding…but seriously, how does that work?)</p>
<p>@TeamRocket - Same, I think it’d be really interesting if I actually encountered one of you in real life though! What’s your dream school as of right now?</p>
<p>@imhkim - THAT SOUNDS AMAZING. I’d rather have no stress day and back-to-back tests the following Monday than stress stress stress for the entire week like I do right now.</p>
<p>Ohhh. Sorry to hear about the gpa thing lol Most of the gym teachers are lenient here so thats why haha </p>
<p>Awwwww 
Even though you probs dunno which school I’m from, you’ll
be so welcomed here and honestly I think you’ll like it here! Awww but i’m sorry to hear about all the stress :(</p>
<p>@imhkim - Your school sounds really fun…you’re from NJ, right (or maybe I just have faulty memory)? I have a lot of friends who live there! New York isn’t that awesome unless you live in Manhattan and you guys have Princeton.</p>
<p>New York is the Paris of America, though.</p>
<p>Plus, you guys have Columbia.</p>
<p>ahhaah yep I’m from NJ! You’re from NY! haha Actually, a lot more people from my school go to Columbia than Princeton, and its kinda ironic in a way hahaha do you know like which part of NJ your friends are from?</p>
<p>The f**k is online gym?</p>
<p>@imhkim - My friends live not too far from Princeton, so their school sends like 5 kids there each year. I remember a few years ago, they “only” had 3 accepted into Princeton, and that was an anomaly…meanwhile, I don’t think anyone from my school has been to Princeton. :P</p>
<p>@catch - It’s not as nice once you get into the suburbs. 
To be honest, unless you live in one of the 5 boroughs (in which case you would get to attend a uber competitive specialized high school like Stuy), the education system is really crappy. Yeah, it’s nice having Columbia ~1 hour away from where I live, but I feel like it’s harder for New Yorkers to get in for whatever reason…</p>
<p>haha thats so cool! do you go to a public school in NY?</p>
<p>55al00m- haha yeah im curious to know what online gym is like!</p>
<p>I would imagine the only way online gym would work is if the teacher is watching the class through webcam as they do sit ups or whatever.</p>
<p>catchinginfinity, I’d love to go to Harvard, MIT, Princeton, Johns Hopkins, Duke, Columbia, or Yale.</p>
<p>I got my ACT scores back lol. I made a 35 composite. Yay.</p>
<p>^Congratulations! That’s REALLY good especially for a sophomore…wow ok now I feel like an idiot. Did you take the SAT/a practice SAT too? Or do you just feel like the ACT is more in your favor?</p>
<p>omg good for you! Congrats! That’s an impressive score for a sophomore! You probably dont even need to study for SATs/ ACTs in junior year haha wow! Same with catchinginfinity, i feel like a total dummy right now.</p>
<p>Online gym was an easy A. You just do a personal training log that your parents sign off saying you did train. It’s all based on honesty…</p>
<p>Thanks guys!</p>
<p>Catchinginfinity, I took a practice SAT a while ago, and I got around a 2090 with no prep. I also took the PSAT, so I guess that counts. I took the ACT primarily because the math/science school I’m applying to requires it (won’t accept SAT) and because I took it once in the seventh grade and made a 28. I don’t really have a preference, but the SAT vocab is annoying. SAT is a bit more time lenient, though.</p>
<p>imhkim, I’m going to finish up my SAT II’s this year and will do SAT next year for National Merit. If I get a 2300+ on the SAT, I’ll just send the SAT instead of the ACT, since the SAT is a bit more “prestigious,” imo.</p>
<p>haha send both! what subject tests will you take?</p>
<p>Math 2 and Chemistry.</p>
<p>Already taken Biology.</p>
<p>So PSA I haven’t taken online gym, but in my county you have to do it in the summer, and you have to spend a total of 40hrs in the gym and 20hrs doing other stuff. At the end of the course there’s a test and it’s like really easy, like running the mile in under 10 minutes. And they keep track via an online log, the end of course test, and they have a heart rate monitor on you. That way, they can see how long, how intense, and how often you exercised. Lol it sounds like too much of a hassle to me. And on top of that, there’s the health portion when you do modules on like smoking, bones in the body, drugs, the typical health stuff.</p>
