winter Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 Doing the IB, at around midnight, somewhere between 11:30 and 1. Now, somewhere between 1 and 3. My day starts later, and I have far less to do! Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desi_Dakku Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 i get to bed pretty early compared to most IB students, (makes me seem like i dont do enough ) but i get home at around 5:00, start homework at around 6:00, finsh up by 9:00 (if there's nothing big due the next day), maybe watch TV, and then go to bed. Maybe this is because I am not one of those procrastination persons, like most of my freinds, but when i have major assigns, I am usually up till 11:00 to 12:00.

3!sha Posted October 27, 2008 Report Share Posted October 27, 2008 (edited) I sleep at around 10 - 10:30 every night.. but im still in the beginning of IB Although i do forsee a change in that next year if the state of the 12th graders in our school is any indication Edited October 27, 2008 by 3!sha Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delysid Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 I have no clue anymore. When I was getting up early for school I'd aim for 10.30, but it was usually about 11.30. There were a few weeks where it got to about 2 or 3am, just so much work. I'm on study leave now though so I sleep when I'm tired, within reason.

Shorty Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 Wow, so many of you sleep so late. I get to bed around 9:50-10:20 at the very latest. Lots of sleep for me Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 Maybe 11PM. It's a very elastic number if I happen to have a critical deadline on the next day. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alouette Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 It depends. On a night with an average amount of homework, I go to bed at midnight... On one with tons of homework or big projects due, sometimes I'll go to bed at 4 and wake up at 5. My afternoon and evening schedule looks something like:2:50 - school ends3:10 - get home3:15-3:30 - snack3:30 - 4:00 - start homework4:00-4:30 - power nap4:30-5:00 - more homework5:00-5:30 - dinner5:30 - 12:00 midnight - homework, studying, projects, essays, college applications, etc.So yeah, I get to bed by midnight if I can on an average night.

Hyperbole Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 Hm, when reading this topic my first thought was, "wow, you guys all do really much schoolwork! What am I doing wrong?" but then I realised that I actually do a lot too...I usually get to bed between 9.30-10.30; it is never later than 11.30, and even that is stretching it.I get up either at 4.45, 5.50 or 6.50 depending on when I start (8.15, 9.45 and 10.45 respectively), and either sleep or do homework on the 1.5 hour train ride to school.I have about six hours of gap hours in school over Monday-Wednesday, so I get quite a lot done then.As for afternoon/evening schedules:4.00-4.20 School ends17.00 Train departs19.00 Get home: eat, talk to my parents, shower, do internetty things; very rarely do homework if it's absolutely necessary9.30-10.30 Go to bedAdmittedly, during my first two years at this school I did practically everything that was not a tiny assignment at the weekend; I was super stressed and forgot how to have a life. This year I also do most things over the weekends, although I do much more at school, and I'm lucky enough to have Fridays that are entirely free from classes, which means that I have three-day weekends. But I don't think that the IB workload is all that it's made out to be; I think we're all just too happy to have something to whine about. I know I do a lot of whining/bragging, but I also know it isn't as difficult as I thought it'd be. And really, it's so worth it! Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

masson Posted November 12, 2008 Report Share Posted November 12, 2008 Ever since I entered Grade 11 and into the month of November, my sleeping time has changed to 12:00 pm. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aldarion Posted November 12, 2008 Report Share Posted November 12, 2008 Somewhere around 11 and 1. If the school starts at 8 (like it mostly does) I try to go to sleep at 11, but quite many times it goes to 12. Of course if I have some bigger project, essay or something else I go to bed at 1.Only expection from this was when I had to make my EE draft. That night I went to sleep at 3.30. I probably drank half a pan of coffee to keep myself awake. I don't want to have another night like that, but I guess that there might be few nights coming... I need to be more active during the day, but procrastination is so tempting. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Negin Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 If I don't get enough sleep during the week (which happens more often than not lately, especially since our coordinator started demanding we finish all our essays), then my body usually goes into full-on-sleep-mode during the weekend. I sleep late and stay asleep until whenever...thankfully I don't have the type of family that insists on me waking up insanely early on weekends.
