Everyday, there are millions of high schoolers awake until 4 am, or even later studying for that APUSH test, or trying to finish piled assignments. We’ve all done it, before and we all know how it feels to wake up the next morning. Many of us pile extracurriculars, sports, along with 3 or 4 APs hoping to get into the college of their dreams. Is it really worth it? I mean everything we do in high school isn’t because we WANT to learn it. Be honest. Everything we do is FOR college. But are all those classes, all those all nighters, worth for a CHANCE to get into an ivy school or UCLA?

I say no. For a chance to get into that dream school, students go through many problems. Here are a few:

1. Lack of sleep

2. Social life: how are you going to have a social life if you have 10000 tests to study for?

3. Depression

I honestly dont know where im going with this: im just pissed off. Im pissed off at the american education. This needs to be changed. it NEEDS to be.
