Answer:
Distractions? Maybe problems they are dealing with in life at the moment which distracts them from school work, which I guess can be put under the stress catergory?

i don't know if this is a HUGE problem to many...but it sure was for me.
skipping and cutting classes...my reason for failing couple of classes here and there.

Answer:
i faild my math calss 2 times this year.. im going to be a sophmore this scool year. but i learnd my esson freshmen year ^^;; i think i faild his class twice because...
1- i dint study or did homework for his class.
i said to my self i already took this class in 7th grade! i dont need to take it again! i know this stuff.. i was wrong i should have studied more. instead of studing i would be online and not focusing on my work. =T
2- i sat away from the board were he put the notes.
instead of taking notes i would play around with my pen cap and stare out the window.. and not pay attention. when we did class work i skipped it and coped someone else to catch up... but i didnt learn anything.. TT_TT
3-i wasnt interested in the subject.
math is boring to me. i hate it. its complicated and when you fall behind its hard to catch up beacase teaches go at a fast pace. and i was lost most the time ....
i started to do way better and improve in alot of stuff when i sat right next to the board and pay attention. i accualy got what he was talking about and that incouranged me to do my homeowrk and study my notes and go after school for help (the guy i like went to get help after school all the time so we would go together;; that encouraged me tooo ^^ ) so i think that it has to do with staying alert in class and accually doing the work.
Answer:
Media....you see, when I am doing homework, I have this urge to hug my computer and use it. D: Maybe it's just me.
Answer:
bad teacher

if i do well or not in a sub depends nearly entirely on who the teacher is.. some teachers make it soooo fun ..some....... its like they have no other job or something .. pms 24/7
