    I don't know how many people on here are from the UK or whatever, but I'm currently in year 13 at school and doing 4 A levels. It's killing me. Most people at my school do 3.
    It doesnt help that the ones Im taking are Maths, chemistry, physics and art.....
    So I have an endless workload and I swear I don't see my friends anymore, let alone talk to them. And on top of that I'm learning to drive, so spend some of the very little spare time i have driving, and the rest working to earn money so I can run my car....

    I waitress saturday nights, which kinda sucks because everyone goes out then and I miss it, but its one of the only times i can work and its a long shift...
    And I go back in school on monday and all everyone can talk about is what happened at the weekend that I missed again.

    I haven't been out for 6 weeks.

    I was just wondering if anyone had any ideas of time management, or whether im just crazy....

    I take Art, Graphics, English Literature and Human Biology. I'm also in year 13. Most people in my year do three too. I think it's okay. Although I have to do work in two art journals.

    I'd drop the driving lessons right now, it's probably fun for you right now, but you can learn to drive after you're more settled and comfortable with your work load.

    Do you really need to work on saturdays? Unless you have to work to provide for others, you can probably get by ok without the pocket money/driving lesson money, which will free up a little down time to relax yer brain.

    I would question why you are doing art combined with the others though. It doesn't seem to fit and if you're workload is stressing you out that much then I would suggest that this is the one to drop if you are thinking about that.
