To everyone who's studying with this music: Checklist: • A bottle of water, at least 1liter. Your brain works better if it has enough water and drinking helps you to concentrate💧 • Your charger. You sometimes don't even notice that your device's battery is going down, so better have it plugged in all the time🔋 • Your headphones. You will be able to focus more with headphones, because it blocks background noises. Also, if it's a late night study session, you won't wake up anyone🎧 • a tea or coffee. Coffee keeps you awake, green or black tea can make you feel more awake as well.☕ • Your study/work stuff: your laptop/tablet/phone , a few pens, paper or whatever you need.⌨ •Anything else you could need, what about a heat pad, a blanket, a good lamp, your pet so you have a study buddy 🐈 Reminder: After an hour, you should stand up and walk a bit around. Better stop the music or put on different music for the break. Open your window, even if it's cold outside. Fresh air will make it better, trust me. You could also lay your head down on your desk for ten minutes and listen to a podcast. Or, if you have to read a book, listen to the audiobook of it. You can also listen to the audiobook while doing another thing, that's even better than listening to music while reading the book. 📖 I hope y'all had a good day, if not, that's okay too.

My parents never really pressured me on having high honors. They always say "its okay" whenever I get low grades, but I dont want to be a disappointment to them which is why im always competitive at school but sometimes its just so tiring to be honest. Ever since I was a child, I was always an "academic achiever" and people always praised me for that. Its also one of the reason why I always pressure myself on getting high grades. Because everytime i get low grades, I feel like everyone would be so disappointed at me. ++Being an academic achiever is the only thing that I could be proud of.

We live in a delicate palace of lies because that’s the only way to survive in this world

No one forces me for good Grades.....it's just my internal desire "Would Rather Die then Get BAD GRADES"

I was born, because my parent wanted someone to fulfill their dreams, to be someone they couldn't be, my older sister was born as a process of learning, to see how they would be as a parents, and now that they have success in both, now they wanted to have another children, who they can actually take care of like an actual child. When I was little, everything I do is seen as *immature*, doesn't matter if I'm 8, doesnt matter if I'm 4. Everything, in my parents eyes, were seen as *immature*, when I was young, in kindergarten, I used to be top of the class, up until year 3, when I was 9, I slowly started being burned out. I crave more affection from my parents, so I stopped working very hard each days, my grade went downhill, from rank 1#, slowly to rank #3, slowly to rank 5#. Sure I was able to keep my rank 3# until high-school (in my country, high school start at 13 year old, the morning session= 16-19 year old and the evening session= 13-15 year old) , but high school start, and it went down even more like drop on a roller-coaster, I started having... Anxiety...social anxiety....depression...finding out I have high probability of autism and ADHD. By the time I turned 14 in May, my anger issue grow worse and worse. I have avoidant personality disorder, and because of that, I put on this gangsta persona at school, just to prove that personality disorder wrong. I try to....hurt....but also not hurt people at the same time. For some reason, whenever there's a test, I study, real hard. 8PM-7AM nonstop, I have bad imsomnia, so I was able to put up with not being asleep. But all that days and weeks and months of study is all for nothing, I fail, fail, fail, fail, fail.. Fail fail fail fail fail fail fail fail fail fail fail Mathematic= 64% English= 73% Malay= 59% PE= 63% History= 53% Geography= 51% Design and Tech= 46% I wasn't satisfied, the only rank I could score was 13#, I was disappointed, my family was dissapointed, I could hear a constant loop of laughter and giggles in my mind. I was going crazy, I have hallucinations. I lost interest in drawing, and I overdosed on drugs, I cut. I wish I wasn't alive, had a session the other day (it's like a mind test), sure I told the teacher about how my parents fight alot. But when the question "have you ever harm yourself? " and "have you ever thinking of taking your own life?" I lied. I was a big liar, and I'm still am. I just feel like putting this story here, so others can read it. If there's anyone out there, who experience things like these before. I just want to say a couple of things: 1) Please, rest, give yourself a break, that's what I've been trying to do to myself. And if you're a therapist friend, I get it. Im the same, I've been politely denying request from friend who wanted me to comfort them, because this time. I'm focusing on myself. And you can aswell. 2) If you feel suicidal, out there, alot of people like you, talk to them. Like I am, please please don't ever try to harm yourself, don't do it. I'm not saying this for everyone around you, I'm saying this for you, especially if you're still young. It hurts me seeing young people having mental problem, that no adults understands, I've seen it on my cousin before. And I'm scared of losing her. I guess that was the couple thing. If you're still reading this, take good care. You still have alot to discover, alot to unpack on life. Our stories are like this, because fate decided to make it interesting, we are all strong because fate wanted us to. Before I go, I would like to apologised for the incorrect grammar in some parts, as you can see, my native language is not English, I've been working on my skill for awhile. I will try hard to correct my grammar in the future. I also need to say that because of my mental health, my memory began to worsen as well, so I might not remembered if I even wrote all of this. Anynomous, out.

Bro... My parents wish for me to be their trophy child and be a doctor so they can show me off to the other relatives i actually wouldn't be born if my siblings didn't keep telling my parents that they want a baby sibling.... My siblings experienced REAL childhood. I'm just... Idk. If I don't become a doctor and be my parents' trophy child i will probably end up as an NPC in their lives....

I have always looked for academic validation because of my parents. I strived to be perfect and get into a good university. I graduated with honors. I had scholarships and got into a good school. I did all that for my parents, I even studied something I thought they would be proud of. It’s not until last year that I realized how unhappy I was with myself. I got depressed after I failed at a subject. I got horrible anxiety from it that I had to go to therapy for it. I felt useless and stupid because I always felt that I had to be perfect. I ended up dropping out and having to go to therapists. My parents saw how much pressure was on me and were understanding. Since then they have decided to let me figure out what it is what I want in life. I still battle with depression but I feel better now knowing I don’t have to pretend to be perfect. To whoever reads this, know that grades and school aren’t everything. If it doesn’t work out once, twice, three times, it’s okay. You don’t have to be perfect no one is! Live a life where you can be happy, not being miserable because of others expectations like I was. Hope everything works out for you!

I am new at this pretty strict school, i have way too much to study and i have been in a school were i barely had homework for three years, so now this is too much for me. But i can not accept this, i HAVE to be the best in my class. Even if i am the worst right now and everyone thinks i'm lazy, i'm going to prove them WRONG. I am going to become the best and no one will ever say a word to me or question me. Wish me luck, i hope i can inspire others to achieve the same or even better ;) Update N°1: Okay... so, a lot of things happened, but i improved a lot. I was able to get closer to my classmates and my grades started to go up, even with Math. The only problem is that a few teachers don't like me, so they do their best to make me have bad grades at their subjects, but i'm doing what i can to be on their good side.

I'm tired Today, I receive a message that I didn't get into the 2nd uni that I applied for. My GWA didn't get any slot. This is just a repetition of what happened to the 1st uni I applied to. I have a GWA of 94%, I am a student leader, I am often leading different school activities, and I am also in a lot of youth organizations, yet I still have no uni. I'm about to graduate receiving With High Honors yet I still manage to fail. I see my peers posting on their social media how they manage to qualify (I don't want to discredit them because I know they also deserve it and I saw them, they are amazing) however my credentials are almost the same or even higher than theirs. I can't help but compare, to think If I am enough. If what I'm doing is enough. A day from now, I am leading a group to defend the research that I spent myself for 4 months. I can't think straight if I should continue doing my best because I'm sick and tired of it. I'm sick and tired of not getting the promised fruit for all the labor I did. Not gonna omit this, I still have 5 uni, which means 5 chances of still getting a university to enter this upcoming academic year but I'm afraid that I might receive the same news again. The 2nd uni, wants me to wait until August 3rd if an available slot opens up but they can't assure me that I'm gonna get it because they say first come, first serve. Sorry for ranting

I might have a big issue with needing academic validation, but one thing that annoys me is people who act as if I'm ''dramatic''. Saying that my grade is still good when I have an 80 and that I shouldn't complain because most people can't even pass, sure I get it, but I have different expectations for myself and I am personnally not satisfied unless I score higher than 90. My school gives out A LOT of medals for the best scoring students in each subjects and I didn't get one even if I have 100 in maths. My friend said that it's stupid, dramatic and egocentric of me to want that medal. Disagree if you want, but I found it very irrespectul for her to say that against my values. She might not care about such things, but I do.

I get so upset if I get a C grade yet getting an A grade doesn't even make me feel good, it's just what I feel like I'm supposed to get cuz I've always gotten really good grades effortlessly. That might sound good but since I'm in highschool now I have to actually try studying and doing homework and stuff, last year in 9th grade I almost got a D grade in math, just barely scraping by to a C cuz I barely understood anything in the class.

as a student that needs this kind of validation, this playlist helps me get to school every morning now (tysm!)

Story time... I am diagnosed with giftedness and an IQ of 137, and I always get the highest grades. BUT nothing comes all of a sudden, even though I have a very fast mind, I still have to study a lot. So, if you're seeing this, just study, study, study AND study. I actually studied so much it starded being fun! In the end, you'll see it's really worth it. See you some years from now at Harvard, people from all around the world! I'm sending you lots of love and peace from Brazil!!!

how is your life right now? are you satisfied?

these are all such good songs!! never thought marina would fit academic core but damn it fits so perfectly. thanks for the playlist :))

I'll get a B or an 83% and everyone will be like "Its fine. Its a good score. Like, you should see my grades." They just don't get it 😭

It's honestly disappointing that I got top of the class, straight A's, a "perfect" family and I can never be proud of myself. They keep saying I am a genius, saying that I don't need to spend as much time as others to get better grades than them. It's honestly sad how hard I need to try now to live up to my parents, teachers, and my own high expectations.

these high grades will never make me happy, because the best part of studying is its process, i think.

to all the people who were praised for being "the smart kid" when they were younger but then around middle/high school started falling apart, i love you and i hope you're doing well

i love how im breaking down and suddenly "no style" comes up and i begin to laugh hysterically at this playlist

its worse to think of this that there are a lot of people who would study their best , give it their all , and then find out that they fail anyway in the future , or that someone else who didn't study and get marks as well as them managed to be really successful in life , yet alot of people expect high remarks from their children in school Street Smart nowadays is the best way to live amongst life , but it doesn't mean to stop studying . Then again , don't overstudy yall . Since it won't end well for your marks and end up failing you instead . Glll !!

It gets better y'all! My favorite study method is to teach concepts, whether it's to a fake audience or to re-teach it to my friends, I find that I remember a lot more when I do that

Academic validation is the only thing i crave for. I always act dumb and scored high marks😆.That satisfaction to see your classmates reaction( confused, surprised)when you scored high marks. I'm living for that reaction. I don't take notes and act like not pay attention during classes but secretly i do.I prefer to stay low-key and want people to expect less from me.

I have a brother who gets more academic validation than me for lower scores bc he has dyslexia, he's great and all, but- I'm here too, I want emotional support and validation-

I have two midterms in 4 days, so I'm probably going to skip all my Monday classes in order to prepare 💀💀💀

I grew up with just about effortless 100% A's for my whole life. I had a college reading level in 3rd grade, I skipped 4th grade entirely, and now I'm 17 and about to get my associate's degree. The problem is, it's like I need academic validation from myself. My parents are proud of me. They're so proud that I'm embarrassed because I don't think I deserve it. I didn't ask to skip a grade; I just did because the only other option was to repeat the year I'd already aced. I didn't want to start college at 15, but I did because it would save my parents a lot of money. So, knowing those were the things I had to do, that wasn't overachieving at all. It was just the basics. In my head, getting 100% on everything is the bare minimum for me. Internally, it's just like, wouldn't I have to do something wrong to get anything else? Wouldn't anything less require me to mess up somewhere? It's ridiculous because I don't project that onto anyone else. Whatever grade they got, if they're happy with it, is more than enough for me to be happy for them. For me, though? Sure, that still applies, but I'm unhappy when it's anything less than 100%. In fact, I actually start getting panicky if it's less than 90%. A core memory of mine is getting a 98% on one of my finals and walking out of it completely devastated and not understanding why my parents were proud. Similarly, I got a 30 composite score on my ACT, including 36 (a perfect score) on the reading portion. That seems great, but I got a low score on the writing portion, and that's all I really cared about. When I don't get perfect scores, it feels more like a moral failure than an academic one. I suppose it's a combination of anxiety and the need for control, which would certainly explain some things that have been developing now that the end is in sight. I've been trying to be nicer to myself recently since I have some professors that grade up from 0% and some that will make either/or assignments where 100% on whichever you choose means you get 50%. On top of that, I'm also the youngest in my class by a long shot. By the rules I set for myself, I must be okay with any A's I get. Honestly, though, it's hard to feel that way. I have a 90.8% in one of my classes, and I get nervous every time I see it because, in my head, I'm barely scraping by in that class. It's odd - I don't care about being better than anyone else, and it has nothing to do with my future. It has nothing to do with enjoying school or making anyone proud. If I do go for a bachelor's degree, it would be in songwriting and music production, something that has nothing to do with my current education and focuses on a field that doesn't require a degree. I'll probably do a quick certificate course in a field that pays well and never return to school. Despite this, I often lose sleep because I'm putting so much effort into keeping my grades up. What is it all for?

i dont have the best grades, its always a constant worry i have in my mind. "i need to study harder." "i cant get into uni and/or college with these grades, ill be rejected!" i always search for hopes that ill get better grades than before but all i get are B's and C's, its never enough for me. sometimes it'd be like a 2-3% away from an A and i feel like absolute sh*t for not being able to get that extra percent. especially since i need a PhD for my wanted occupation, i cant help but feel like its a dream that is so close but far away.

Academics are the big arriving stress 😢....you are enough even if no one tells u this..I believe in you...just try your best okay I know u can do this .... Lots of love ❤

When you are a decent student, athlete, musician. You get praised for them. The moment you try to quit people are like oh no you're so good! Just doing a thing wrong "weren't you so good" So you stick with everything and you're parents think you're just a time waster and attention seeker Oh and I did I mention you have family issues and is an only child Your classmates think you're too cool for them and avoid you. "Don't do love, don't do friends I'm only after success"

you only have one chance to do well in education, so obviously you have to work hard. so then why do i get called nerd and rude names for trying?

I have never actually wanted academic validation, I just genuinely love learning but there's always that little voice in my head...

I worked harder than everyone else and got better results than everyone else, that's why no one around me loves me, but I will continue on the same path without giving up, I don't need anyone in life and you will see, in the end I will win!!

We all wished to be understood it’s just some understands some people than other

DISCLAIMER THIS IS ME JUST VENTING. my parents didn't push for good grades when I was young, as long as I wasn't failing and I understood the material. My older brother was always the art and music kid who was outgoing and had a lot of friends, while I understood things in school really easily and picked up school subjects really well, my brother preferred to practice something he could show off like his paintings. I thought that if I got really good grades my family and people in general would pay attention to me. The school me and my brother went to was weird compared to the school I go to now, but I was top of my grade there. That didn't mean much to me tho 'cause there were only like 25 kids in my grade (I'm not joking there were no more than 200 kids there and it was an elementary and middle school combined) but because of that weird school, when I switched to a normal public school I realized I wasn't just top of my grade there, everyone from my old school that switched to that school had already learned what they were teaching and I was 2 years ahead of them. So between 7th and 8th grade, I went from being the top of 25 students to 2 years ahead of over 150 kids, people would ask for my help with work so I finally made real friends, but I also didn't learn almost anything for two years. So now I'm in 10th grade, and it's the first time I'm learning anything new in so long and I'm not used to having to apply myself to get good grades and I've been so tired and stressed from it. before I would get my work done in 5-10min for each subject then help my friends or sleep. now I spend all of my class time working on something while my friends are asking for help, or the teacher tells them to have me help them, and I don't want them to know I'm struggling because my identity was always tied to my grades but if I can't figure something out easily then why would they need me. and when my grades started going from straight A's to only C's, my family was disappointed, and that was the only time they expressed concern for any grades ever. Only if I was doing worse than usual. not when my brother was failing half his classes and skipping summer school. no. they never told him that. but the second I go from "the good younger sibling that gets good grades and doesn't get in trouble" to being an average student, everyone in my family acts like I had a complete change of character and was gonna drop out and start doing drugs. I ended up getting so stressed from it that i was out sick for a week and I'm currently behind in all six of my academic classes, missed the beginning of Esports practice, and have no idea what we're doing in band because my friends in those classes are the kinda people that don't understand their school work half the time and i usually end up helping them even when I'm not in class, Sorry for the random vent/ trauma dump in the comments

Thank you for the playlist it really helped me study and memorise

This is me. I’m currently getting a law degree just to feel something and for people to be proud of me. I’ve always been overlooked in my family so trying to impress my customers at work is all i got 🙃

I HATE being outdone I actually feel like never talking to them again. I always get the highest and now if people get higher than me they take it as an accomplishment.

As someone who craves academic validation, I still get mad remembering that only one subject is stopping me from getting that AMAZING all A+ asian grade feel. Also listening to this while doing that ONE subjects homework, making slightly better ngl tyty

my parents hardly care about my studies, and i dont feel supported or encouraged by them at all, ive always craved validation, and so academic validation has been my motivation for so long now - i just want to pass my exams with amazing scores and show everyone my success

It’s a constant feeling of not being enough: an A- ? Why not plus? A? Where is the plus? B? That’s trash right there. A+? It still doesn’t feel enough, and what if I fail? I don’t understand this question…what a disappointment I am. I’ll spend hours of studying and only get myself the grade I didn’t want, being burned out and tired because of staying up is my closest buddy now…

Academic validation is a tempory happy that i always chase after. And I'm terrified of that, because I know, that when I'm out of school I'm going to lose myself. That one mutual thing I could always have in common with people my age, that will be gone when I graduate in 2 years. I won't have a quality anymore, I won't be the "smart girl" anymore, I'll just be some guy. As someone who's always craved and needed validation from other people, I poured all of my work into my school life. But after having a job this summer, the awful realization hit me, that I'm not gonna have any idea what I'm doing anymore after I graduate. I'll automatically cope into my path of "complete success" to be happy, and when I'm out of college then what? I'll be nothing but a degree

@iamgoodatnamingthings8808

That's pretty deep. I understand that feeling but I'm way younger than you so it would definitely be much more terrifying with only 2 more academic years ahead of you. However I do believe that your degree will be useful and i also believe that you will be able to manage your time between study and time for yourself when you can learn about yourself and do other things. Don't put all your self worth into validation from others. (Although, you probably already know that) The only thing that matters is that you are happy with yourself. Best of luck!!

Best playlist OMG !! I'm dancing in my room everytime I listen this !! Thanks for this !

It all started when i was a kid, my parents continuously stressing over my elder sis who never listens to them. Growing up in that tense atmosphere i automatically started studying religiously. And when i got first rank in primary class i saw a very genuine smile on my dad's face after so many years. I realised this thing now, that i continuously wants to see that proud smile on my parents face. And thats the reason i try so hard to be "good" daughter to them. I'm compensating so hard for my "failed" sister. I just wish that one day, I can look back and take a deep breath and just smile. I love the way I'm living, but i hope in future I'll meet someone who don't want me to be perfect and accept my flaws which are deeply buried somewhere.

I listen to this playlist every time I study, I really really love it.

I love it!

As someone who used to be academically valid and no longer is, my mental state is beyond strained in trying to be academically valid again, I MISS MY ACADEMIC VALIDATION.

Been listening to this everyday to remind myself to be motivated and not give up because I am better than that!! I'm grateful for music!!

Playing this while crying and doing all the things that needed to be done so that I can be in honor

Well for me, whenever I have an exam my friends would always say something like “even if you dont study or dont focus in class you can always succeed” but little did they know how hard I struggle, sometimes people just see you because your achievements, i guess thats why we developed this illness so called “academic validation “

Omg this playlist is the best thing i came across thankyouuuuuuuu much love>>>>>

top of my school is the most relatable song ever...😭 thank you for this

I randomly sat to study yesterday. Now every 2 minutes I feel like to study..

I am not going to lie when I first heard top of my school from my sister I had cried cause during the time I was in a really bad situation with my academic's and family. btw I really do like this playlist It has some really good song's.

I envy those who crave Academic Validation while here I am still stuck in fighting a battle I've never wanted to experience, hope that everyone would be successful one day and hope that everyone who are like me would win those battle inside their head.

Thanks for this playlist that I listen to as I make my philosophical thesis

Its almost 3am and i just finished my hw and i really love my concelar and tea :)life is good 👍🏻 Edit: i got full marks ;)

Vivo de la validación académica no ahí nada que me de Seguridad que sacar sobresaliente, me la paso horas extras estudiando para siempre estar un paso más adelante de los temas a ver ,Los reconocimientos, títulos , logros son lo que me hacen ser YO, Vivo y moriré por ser destacada académicamente ,tengo miedo de ser una persona común y quiero ser mucho más que el promedio, quiero construirme una vida en la que sea reconocida por mis esfuerzos , quiero sentirme bien y lo único que me da esa satisfacción que tanto busco es saber que destaco académicamente , quisiera una vida no tan cansada pero supongo que es parte de "ganar".. Aspiro a ser alguien reconocida y sobresaliente.

this is a GEM. PERFECT PLAYLIST ISTG

When the only thing that makes you feel alive is THAT ACADEMIC VALIDATION

There is a girl in my class who also craves academic validation and we used to be friends but she’s started being horrid to me for beating her in tests 😂

I have full 100% in all my classes. I participate whenever I undertand the question. I help my classmates the most. I never have freetime after school due to the constant extracurriculars, not even on weekends. You would think that I'm a perfect student, yes, my teachers and classmates think so too, but my mom (which i still love) finds any crack in what I do and bash me about it. It's fucking annoying. I'm starting to think that she doesn't appreciate what I do every single day, and only pays attention to the cracks in the surface of such a smooth cement.

So this is cracking a nerve 💀

burnt out in the tenth grade. I don't know what I'm doing with my life and envy those who have a clear cut path. Everyone is telling me to "explore my options" but what options are there for someone who doesn't want to go into STEM and doesn't want be a lawyer? Not many, that's what. And it's this pressure to make money, to be successful, to be enough for my mother and father. Yet here I am, most likely going to get left behind because of gap year while all of my best friends study at top universities. It's not like I don't have the grades. But I just don't know where I'm going.

needed this

(Vent) My parents have pushed me a lot and I keep pushing myself for academic validation. No one is forcing me to do this, but I NEED my parents to feel proud of me, if I’m not academically valid am I enough? Like am I valuable? I saw my mom get disappointed over a 88% and it broke me into damn pieces.
