Do you actually pay attention to your class in school?

I don't pay attention to certain subjects that only requires common sense/good behavior. The subjects that have formulas, branches and all that type of shit, that's when I actually pay attention because not even my common sense gets it.

Most of the time, I'm just watching YouTube and waiting for the conversation to either call my name or the class to end.
Like ghoulybits, senioritis has killed my motivation for things that I just don't care about. Music and Japanese class actively keep me up, and I actually want to be there for those moments. Marine Science is interesting, too, but I'm mostly just doing math for "fun facts" (like how many burgers a person would have to eat to match the diet of a minke whale). But I just slack off for the rest of the classes; English, History and Gym. I don't have to try in English or Gym, and History is the class subject I hate with a passion.

TL;DR, it depends on the class.
I still only sometimes pay attention.
Even though it's my fourth quarter, and I have to pass this quarter or risk repeat. I'm not repeating any aspect of high school.
I should probably get serious, because my family wants me to graduate.

I usually don't, if you know me quite well, you know that school isn't something I care for

Surprised I'm the only one that pays attention...

That saves you a lot of time of studying, reading twice for me is usually enough.

Despite written tests being my speciality, in examinations like writing papers or reports I usually flop, i'm unable to concentrate at all smh.

It depends on the class I'm in.
I can miss an entire class and be fine for computer science, so I rarely pay attention.
If I look away for just two minutes in matrix algebra I say goodbye to my grade.

Nah lol, unless it's somehow interesting or I absolutely have to. And I still get great grades, which pisses off my friends haha, sorry not sorry to them :p

Wimpy Cursed
I try my best to pay attention.
Swear I miss one word and I fail to answer a simple question.
If I am tired though, I could care less about the day.
GreatPlayer_old_2
Yesn't. I'm that one student In the google meet that always have their camera off. But I pay attention sometimes.
catzlucky

Short answer: Similar to GreatPlayer and Dial.

Well, not really in school anymore, but as a proverb tells: Every day is a school day.

Teacher-centred teaching's are even more tiresome than group activities in this regard. Most of the time when I'm supposed to learn something in that capacity I tend to become absent-minded; even if the topic's actually interesting. But that's not really a problem since most stuff is written down somewhere so I can compensate by solo-learning. And many of the nifty, practical tricks of a trade are passed down while working anyway; making it much easier to keep them in mind as you learn them as you need them.

only my one on one 12th grade art class

I pay attention to Maths related stuff, but anything else, no.

If it's a subject I'm not very good at and also useful.

Update because college: I try to most of the time, but it's hard if you use your laptop to take notes. I usually succeed, but sometimes you end up getting a ping on discord aboout how your dorm might have bedbugs and next thing you know 40 minutes have passed and the lecture is over.

Back when in school perhaps I don't really paid attention to math class but now in college, I do pay attention and take a note on lecture
sametdze

just enough to get grades that are considered good
Jangsoodlor
half-half
Corne2Plum3
yes
z0z
it would be a waste if i didn't even try
Behrauder
I try, but even if the class is interesting, I suddenly start to think alone about something random, often as if someone was talking to me, sometimes there are about 4 people talking in my head, and then someone arrives saying that I I'm talking to myself, then I talk to that person, but then I realize that I have to pay attention in class, and then I get distracted again... but anyway, I study a little at home and I always get one of the highest grades anyway lol.
