High schoolers have it so rough. Really they do. Being brainwashed to obsess and stress about SATs, extracurriculars and straight As all for that elusive college acceptance is practically a crime against humanity/youth! I want to say things like, "Don't worry, a B won't kill you. None of this matters in the long run," but I wouldn't have believed me either.
