My AP USH Class gives me a Headache….

WARNING: This is a kinda long IRL rant. If you don’t like these, then skip it.

…… And I’m not talking about the workload.

The class is filled with suck-ups and arrogant narcissists. The suck-ups aren’t that bad. Seeing as this is everyone’s first AP class, I’m kinda okay with that, and I’m just hoping that people are nervous and don’t know how to act. And besides, I kinda suck-up too, and the teacher’s okay with it, so I guess it’s okay.

However, the narcissism is annoying. In that class of more than 25 people, I could only stand like 7 or 8 people. Everyone thinks too much of themselves. People interrupt the teacher, interrupt others speaking, and the class is generally loud. Most people have the maturity of middle schoolers in that class, and it’s filled with more ‘nerds’ than popular people, so… yeah.

My friend who took that class last year said it was more serious last year, and once she said she was just walking by when we had it, and she noticed “People were all just talking to each other and walking around the room.” And she said “Last year, we were quiet when we entered. Your class made it a joke.”

And my teacher is constantly threatening us, saying “This class will be the first AP USH class to get busy work". Yes, he said it from a “If this continues” kind of way, and not a definite way, but still. Most students actually were determined to get us busy work.

Today, we had to do a mock-continental convention, and luckily, a sane person became the moderator/judge. Students were still talking out of line. The grade president always interrupted EVERYONE, saying his point of view (Btw, he wasn’t the moderator, so he was supposed to just sit there and raise his hand.), and didn’t let the class agree on something he opposed. So, whatever the class agreed on something, he had to agree on it, too. And he wasn’t the judge person.

Let’s face it, in life, even if you don’t agree on stuff, you’re not supposed to complain until you get your way.

Things got worse when someone (Another non-judge person) was debating with the president, and saying what the quiet people were thinking. Neither the president nor this person were picked on to speak. Guess who got in trouble and (albeit, voluntarily) left the class?

Yup, not the president. And nobody called the president out.

The judge person kept on telling everyone to be quiet, but no luck.

I left the class with a headache.

So basically, the teacher has little control over the class, the grade president thinks he has more rights than others, and everyone in that class thinks to highly of themselves.
