I'm a teacher and it sounds to me like you are getting too much homework. I'd give you two subjects a night and not to take more than 30 minutes each. What is all this nonsense about counting pages? It's quality not quantity that counts. Are all your subject teachers co-ordinated and do you have a homework timetable?
I hope you manage to do something to lighten this burden. Have you thought about getting a petition together or form some kind of "protest commitee"?

Geez I didn't know overeducated was such a bad deal as compared to being poorly prepared. I know you are young but you have a lot to learn so try to be positive and do your best. You may surprise yourself as you mature and come up with a great invention or be a superb doctor or a teacher yourself all of which you will need a solid education and knowing how achieve goals and workloads even they are a bit intimidating...Go For it cause you're going to have take up the slack when it's your generations turn.

No, because you all cheat on the Internet anyway.
Basically your homework is cut and paste.
