It may have been a design project or something similar, that required sketches and things of that nature... actually, it's fairly likely, considering the fact that 100 pages of typewritten stuff could be around 50,000 words. I've never known a school project that needed to be that length, not even at degree level.

Well then, you clearly don't know about I.C.T coursework and that's just at GCSE

No, I know about ICT coursework, I've been there. But even that didn't just have to be printed out; we had to present it on sheets of A3 with handwritten annotations. Uck. I was just assuming that the OP wouldn't bitch about something when they could just hit 'print' again and be done with it.

what in the world was ur summer homework donig on ur dad's desk!!!!

oh dear...quit IB

I have summer homework for advanced classes in high school. I have to write a report for every chapter in every LOTR book.

Had*

Agreed. YDI for doing your homework. Especially NOT doing it at the last minute like everyone else.

He's from India. Summer homework is pretty regular there. I remember I had to do 6 math problems everyday throughout summer break, and it all had to be handwritten, so I can see why he had 100 pages worth of homework.

This person lives in India. Their schedule is different compared to the US and some other countries, thus the homework during summer. I should know I lived their for about 2 years growing up.

how ******* old are you? i'm pretty sure every person, period, had summer homework in high school.

i dont, we just have to read a book

I've never once in my life had summer homework. A lot of places don't.

I sure as hell didn't. Classes are organized here such that it's a clean break between school years.

i have summer hw not that much though

I think it's normally just reading a book, at least for me it is

I'm in high school an taking advance classes and I have NEVER had homework during the summer.

well then your classes are not advanced then ;]

A lot of people... Every honors or ap language arts student, for example, will probably end up having summer reading. Even at highschool level 9-12th grades. I know I did.

I always had to do a book report during the summer.

At my old high school, only AP and Dual Enrollment (classes you get college credits as well as high school credits for) had summer assignments.

At my high school we had to do reading assignments and if you were taking ap classes in the fall, they gave you work.

Obviously, posting a FML on the computer is more important than doing their homework on the computer.

Teachers here many times insist on hand written assignments. I'm an engineering student majoring in Computer Science & many times even I have to submit hand written assignments & practical files.

You don't even know what the assignment is. He could have been doing chemistry or engineering - something that required diagrams or equations. You can't do that properly in a word processor, and I sure as hell wouldn't pay out the ass for specialized software either. Most people do it by hand.

The standard "specialized software" for that sort of thing is all 100% free (as in speech _and_ as in beer), so there's no problem there. I've done most of my undergrad- and graduate-level mathematics and sciences homework on the computer, and it's usually the preferred method.

To the bitch who posted number 7. Perhaps they took out the trash and the garbage man came and got it? Think before you make yourself look like a ****.

Make herself look like a ****? Lol.

It was in his father's desk. When I clean out my desk and find things that don't belong there, I throw it out too.
