1.So who does?

2.If you do how do you find the time to play? Theres so much homeowork and you constantly have to be studying in case of pop quizes and tests and during exams you have to study for like 2 weeks just to pass and get your credit!
3. If you do play, how long do you play every day?

I graduated in 2008... High school was a breeze. I left school early almost everyday, missed 1-2 days a week, and hardly ever studied.

I wonder? Whoever does find the time must be a certified genius.

Seriously mate, highschool isn't hard.

Think about this, I managed t play UO from the army.

I'm in the Air Force and enrolled in college and still play :) not to mention passing everyone around my lvl in EQ2 when i played recently.

Highschool is a joke... you can skate by and still go to a good college...I would say do your best but Highschool does not teach you anything useful... nothing

Okay maybe not nothing but very little besides the World is unfair and you have to get used to being screwed over.

dude i am high school and taking collage classes at the same time and i find time to play mmos

I played MMOs through all of the four years I spent in high school. I just graduated a few months ago, and I'm currently going to Northwestern - so it is definitely possible to be an active gamer and still get into a good school.  I'd normally get home at around 17:30, do my homework until 20:00, and then play until bed at 23:00. High school was indeed a joke - you just need to know how to juggle your time.

I'm sure you do. You sure you're not a test subject at your local college?

graduated from highschool in the 2003, played UO and diablo2 all through it

just look at what is worth studying for, and do that,

pop quizes are usually like worth 0.25% of your whole year. and exams i studied the night before,

the trick is to prioritize

I graduated in 2005. I played AO/DAoC the first part of high school, then SWG until the NGE hit, and then left playing EQ2 :)  Now I'm in college full time and playing Vanguard while I sleep.

played WoW, EQ2, Diablo 2, all the way through high school... graduated 2007, still playing them while I'm in college =D.

lawl Im a junior in high school, play football, wrestle, have a 4.2 gpa and I play mmos. Honestly studying is a joke, I have studied twice in my 3 years, and both times were for finals. Besides, isn't 7 and 1/2 hours of school per day enough as it is.

I'm going to be a senior this coming year.  I played WoW freshman-junior year and just recently quit.  I play varsity sports for a state championship team, have an A/A+ average with mostly AP/Honors courses, and will most likely get into a top notch college.  Honestly, high school doesn't really take up that much time.  I do my homework during class and whatever is left right before I go to sleep.  The majority of my day is spent at school, then practice, then gaming. 

Maybe I'll put my brains into developing the next monumental MMO experience, who knows?

I'm not in highschool, but full time college, and I have about 6 hours a day to use for entertainment (if I chose to do that).

Just be smart with your time.

Blessings,

I'm going to have to call BS on this one, because that is like saying I have a A++ in school...

Anyhow high school was easy to do the tests and junk, but I was extremely bored with it. That is why I left early, and now I'm a few months away from graduating with a Bachelor's degree.

it's called extra credit

Meh I've never believed in BS school systems that give 110 percent or something along those lines. 4.0 is already perfect grades, so it seems pretty pointless to say you have better then perfect grades.

MMOs didn't exist when I was in high school.   But I played lots of pnp RPGs and board games.  I don't remember much about high school other than it was a joke, my lovely girlfriend (now my lovely wife), and graduating.  It was a very forgettable experience.

Went on to get my MSME and now play mmos in the evening because pnp RPGs take too much time (more than mmos).

I find that hard to believe.

But yes, if you think making time for hobbies in high school is difficult then you're in for a world of hurt when you graduate.
