They aren't hard just too much work.... I think thats how my grade from AP Biology dropped down to an F so quickly because I just neglected the work from that class xD

Everything else im trying to do the HW but its just too darn much... I can't spend my whole day doing HW I gotta have my life too xD

.. Then why are you taking the classes? Just for a big boost in your GPA? Neglecting your homework and classwork has already resulted in your failure for that class... So what was the point in taking it? And I can't exactly find the post that uninspiredfae posted, but she said something along the lines of (which I'm paraphrasing) "Why bother taking an AP class when you can take a regular class and get a better grade?" What was the point in taking the AP class if you're too lazy?

Sure it's hectic to have so many AP classes and so much homework, but you should manage your time wisely. You shouldn't known better than to take so many, especially AP Biology. And I have 4 AP classes (there's 6 periods a day for my school), but I still manage to pull through with A's. It's just a matter of managing your time, not procrastinating, and most of all, actually TRYING to do the work, even if it may seem impossible. And don't forget to actually read some of the stuff.

There's people I know who have neither read their (text)books nor done the work -- they just copy the whole way through. They'll be screwed when they get into college. You're only hurting yourself by higher-level classes and failing them. You DO REALIZE that AP classes are college courses. And if you can't even handle them now, then you might not even make it through college.

EDIT: And I DO have a life. I am just able to get through the classes and able to do the work. When you're asked to read a book for class and given two weeks, don't go reading the book the night before or go on sparknotes and not read the book at all.. It won't help you in the longrun. MANGE YOUR TIME. Yes, I do procrastinate.
