Ok, i have to admit, i failed 3 times this year, luckily coming out in all passing grades by the end of the year (yay! no summer school!) but everyone thinks im stupid. I am not one of those preppy girls that act like their stupid and really are. That's just how i act. It is natural. But it really goes crazy when i flirt with guys. But im really smart and i only failed because i didn't do my homework.
Im a girl that would use really big words without knowing it. I've won my school geography bee. I (was) in every high honors. But now im being told im really stupid! Help!

I know exactly what you mean. I find the social situation at school somewhat distracting. Being introverted at youth, I was easily overtaken by the classroom atmosphere and wasn't able to concentrate on schoolwork very well at all. I was raised middle class public school, and it's most likely my parents ignorance to better options, stuck in their daily grinds, that lead to that type of failure. I didn't do my homework very often either, but when I went to summer school and the class and teacher seemed very on point and in tune with one another, it was a fun teacher, with valuable lessons and a very docile, SMALL, classroom. I got a B+ in that class, and i'm fully convinced smaller classrooms are better for students. Honour students have an upper hand because their classrooms are smaller to begin with. Not everyone makes the honour cut. As far as education goes, being anything less than wealthy is almost a recipe for disaster, Unless of course, the parents stay On Point with the teacher, and the student and are making sure there are no weak links, everyone being on the same page. And with a little correlation that way, perphaps helping them with homework and working With the teacher, that's the surest way to succeed. Poor and middle class families who work late, unintelligently, and who think it's their only option, scared to do something different that seems like financial "Risk", usually don't have time for that type of thing. Thusforth ensuring their family struggle to continue. Until someone steps up and says, No more. You have to follow your dreams, you have to do what it takes. It's just a part of the way it works for people who do great things. There ARE going to be people saying "no that will never work" that's just how the elimination process works for being something great. Ask any musical artist, ask any rich person. There are people that tried to tell them it wouldn't work, that it wasn't happening. And they simply refused to believe them and continued to follow their dreams. It's the right of passage for doing great things. Overcoming the one's who are convinced it'll never work. That's exactly why they never could do it. They're convinced it'll never work. Thoughts manifest. So whatever you believe the most will be in reality for you, because your mind looks for that when you think about it to that extent. Believe something positive and believe in your dreams, and don't listen to anything else no matter how powerful it seems, and you're sure to succeed in this life. But here's two hints: 1) Residual income 2) Riches come from Profits, Not wages. Think about it.

Have you ever heard the phrase..."actions speak louder than words?" If you act like you're stupid, then that's the way people will think of you. Same goes for if you're failing everything. Why don't you just do your homework? A lot of people would think that it's stupid to fail and the only reason being that you didn't do your homework. If you're intellegent, let people see it. Then they will change their mind about you.

Well, giving up your tomorrows for little flirts today IS stupid.
Seriously (and please don't take that first line as a personal slam), you should look at your future. Having a brain is only half the battle, educating it so that it can work optimally is the second half. If you blow your chances at a decent college and a decent future over a cute boy or two today, you will regret it the rest of your life.
But it is your life, and your choice, and your mistake to make.

Just start doing your homework trust me same thing happened to me. I use to be D and C but i was smarter then that but after i started doing my homework i jumped to B- to A. I hope this works.
I don't think you are stupid because i was the same way and i wasn't stupid. So start doing homework and your grades will jump.
Try and do homework during your free time in class it saves allot of time to be with friends after school.
And i am in 10th grade i am in honor classes to.

Maybe you need to stop focusing on guys for awhile and figure out what you want to accomplish for yourself.
