In order to keep up my grades and any hope of going to a good college, I have been forced out of playing or watching StarCraft until my finals are over. I'm taking SAT 2 Bio this weekend (sigh hope i do well) and my finals are coming up soon to. So i must take a break from everything that is fun and just try and study my ass off these last two weeks of school you all wish me luck.

Good luck! I know it's a stressful season but just remember what it'll be like if you study well and succeed on the tests.

Just know that these 2 weeks can basically make the rest of your life MUCH easier. Getting good scores on these tests will probably help you get into a good college, which will then help you get a better job, easier, with a higher starting salary, which then translates into easier job progression down the road, and essentially you don't have to play catchup all your life.

Well that's how I looked at it when I studied for like 6 hours a day for 2 weeks for the ACT, AP tests, and AP finals in the same 2 weeks haha

Not even all that true :p. you can be successful not raping your SATs and stuff. More APs just fucks you too since all yor easy classes are removed and you take harder classes for credits...

Just do your best man. Know itll all be ok as long as you do your best.

This seems like a bad idea. You should have the self control to be able to do the things you like in moderation. You shouldn't have to ban fun in order to be successful, it doesn't even make sense, practically by definition (depending on how you define success). Not that you shouldn't study for the tests and that they aren't important, but you may find that you do worse if you don't allow time just to relax.

All that being said, however, if you are the kind of perfectionist who gets stressed out by playing starcraft like I am, then it's probably good to take a break from playing for the time being.

EDIT: But you requested we wish you luck: so good luck!
