In my AP world history class in high school. I am no doubt the smartest person in that class. Its likely the teacher was drunk when choosing candidates. I know the asnwer to EVERY question. Therefore i raise my hand for every question. But you see, when the question is asked, i wait a moment, and the idiots dont know. My solutionhas been cutting that class, i havent been to it for 2 weeks, now i failed it. This seems to be the problem for all my other classes. Its weird because one day, i thought "only idiot suicide, its pointless" but i am getting ideas. So many problems are adding to thoughts, i am very sad. My BO problem is destroying me. What can i do to recover in school, and also how can i contain urge to asnwer.

A huge part of your problem is you have a superiority complex. You are alienating yourself from your peers and isolating yourself. Take a step back and look at what you're doing. Sure, you may seem to know more than the others, but you don't have to be a show off about it. Answering every question does not win you favor in the eyes of the teacher either. He/she wants open debate and discussion and having one person answer ALL the time is going to stifle the other students. It may be that some people in your class are shy or unsure of their answers. Some may see there's no point to participating because you are always taking over. (Think Hermione in Harry Potter)

As for the BO. There are plenty of deodorant and body spray products out there. Try some. If they don't work, go to your doctor, it could be that you have some sort of hormonal unbalance or allergies that are causing the odor.

You have many problems. First of all, you have a false sense of your own intelligence.If you know the anser, raise your hand right away. What kind of solution is cutting class? There is no way you can pass if you are absent. An intelligent person would not do that. You have BO? Take a shower every morning and use a deodorant like Certain Dri. Make sure your clothes are clean and smell fresh.
Make an appointment to talk to the teacher and decide to attend class every day. Change your personal habits and you will like yourself more. You may even be able to make some friends.

You may have a self esteem problem. Perhaps you are wishing that you could be more like your peers and fit in. So you try to "dumb down" to feel more accepted but then the pressure is on from your parents and you still are not fitting it.

That was my life. I was an A student and folded when the teasing from my classmates became to much for me to handle. So I started not doing homework or going to class. In the end I screwed myself. I could have had scholarships and a wonderful life but I let the other kids manipulate my happiness and my future. You have to get help from a councilor and know that in 10 years you will not even remember those idiots last names. Do it for you. High school is temporary and you have to live your own life after. Go to class and face the music. Tell your teacher why you were skipping class and know that they are not the enemy.

Don't end up like me wishing my life was different and wishing I had been stronger to face those challenges.

Sometimes there is an informally organized agreement by students not to respond to questions by a certain teacher ---even if they know the answer. In other cases "peer pressure" is against answering questions. I encountered this problem through High School and in many college classes. I usually found it helpful to talk with the teacher after class. She realizes by now that you will have an answer without raising your hand, so she will call on you when she wants to. You will still be unpopular with the other students. But keep in mind that your association with them is for only a short time, so their opinion of you doesn't matter.

you need to go to your classes as mundane as they can be. it's sad that the other students just don't get it or know the answers. don't you want to go to college? keeping good grades may help you to get scholarship money. talk to you school counselor about why you've been skipping or a teacher that you can trust. it is unfortunate that you will end up failing classes that you deserve an a in because you are skipping.

as for your bo problem, have you been to the doctor? your body must have it's own odor that all that washing can't take away. natural scent i guess. just stick with school and focus on your future. people out there are ignorant asses, your real friends will step it up. but seriously, talk to someone you can trust or you will destroy yourself as you said.
take care

Need to take a step back and get a grip of things.
Being able to answer the questions orally is one thing but getting the test results is what its really all about...think you will agree.
Play tactfully in class or choose your moment to anwer the oral questions to your advantage. But most of all dont let it show any bad feelings are getting to you and causingd rifts between you and your class mates.
So let the tests show who is the best and leave it at that.As your end of term report no doubt has comments from your teacher on all your attributes dont give him any opportunity to say anything other than excellent as you rightly deserve.

First, I think you should calm down. Go to the school counselor, and explain, or print this question, if you don't think you can explain it to this person, or if you think this person is unable to comprehend your level of reasoning. If you are not able, give this question to a trusted person, a relative, a mentor, or someone else in acadamia that you trust. Please do so. You should be commended for having so many ideas, but, your direct solutions to your problems may not be the answer. Be gentle to yourself, and go to someone you respect for some direction. You owe it to yourself. You can and will find the answers you seek. Perhaps the library can help. Don't let things get you down, and don't judge yourself against others your own age. Writing your thoughts down your thoughts may help. Please connect with an older person. You can do it. I support your ambitions, not your solutions. Good luck

why do feel compelled to answer every question? you could be in the class and listening to the teacher. let others answer the questions for the time being. just listen. then read what has been taught that day plus what will be taught the next day. wait for the teacher to complete the question and formulate the answer in your mind. then raise your hand. if you are still the first to answer at least you are prepared with the answer.

You would feel better about yourself if you shared some of your knowledge and skill woth those who need help. Get together with your instructor and organize study groups or tutoring. If you think others get mad, than it's because you know or have something they don't, and they either feel that you think less of them or more of yourself than them. This is a common assumption about a person who fears social interaction. People mistake their fear of being judged and thought badly of, for aloofness or being stuck up. The remedy is to make it all about others. Acknowledge and notice good things about others. Compliment others and ask them questions. People don't like to ask for help, but they do love it if other people ask for their help. Break the ice and ask someone for help (sport, art, writing, practice quizzes, makeover, etc). When you act like others are important, they think better of you. There are remedies for your BO, but the remedy for your own confidence and self esteem is to lift others up. Make their day. That will make you feel good inside. And this is easy to do (unless you have some kind of superiority complex).
