i studied in a co-ed school until i was in 5th grade and to be honest . Most of us used to get average grades and only 2 girls and a guy used to be the first ones in class (always lol ) ..we were playin together/talkin to each other / playin jokes on each other rather than concentratin in class.
but since 6th grade i have been attendin a single-sex school (boys's class in the other building) and tbh i have been so motivated to beat the boys in studyin and when the teacher says we r late and the boys have finished the lesson . All the girls shut up instantly and pay more attention . and when it's time to receive our grades we r even more competitive . we want to kno the highest grade in the boy's class is so that we even work harder next time/or celebrate
... My grades have been better ever since then lol .
I like this cuz i can have my full freedom but there is a disadvantage to this as well we Girls Talk A LOT ,soo much and that sometimes hinders us . And i agree with Nid that most of the girl's in my class r soo shy when they have to talk to the opposite sex .
I believe girls and guys shld be mixxed in college when they r A LOT more mature and are more likely to THINK of the CONSEQUENCES of there ACTIONS.
