How Does Pot Affect Your School/Work?

Just out of curiousity, are all you student pot smokers making good grades? What about older people? How does it affect your everyday work?

 

most people here say it doesnt, but in my case if i smoke too often i start suffereng from short momery and i cant concentrate properly. i hasnt affected my grades yet, but it sure affects my concentration.

 

smoking weed hasn't caused my grades to drop, but it has destroyed my motivation to do schoolwork. plus now that im in college, i always have a shitload of work to do and it's a lot harder than it ever was in high school. the only thing that's hard to do is read philosophy when high, don't try it.

 

the question is how do you affect your school work.. not how marijuana does

 

I'd imagine philosphy would be fun to read when high, well your probally reading text books on "How to write philosophy" which sucks....

Yah am not in school right now, am working and probally going to get a second job for more money. I find weed has never gotten in the way of school or work. Alcohol on the other hand has made me so hungover i throw up if i stand up straight, so it makes it hard to work or even stay at work... Weeds just kind of made me feel lightly buzzed at work or school the next day. I think what destroyed my work ethic was my school, too many spares, alls i did was play cards and got lazy... Damn i need to rediscover myself, take a long vacation and get healthy.

 

Smoking weed doesnt to shit to help or hurt my grades. However when i toke and then try to do school work it is near impossible.

I wrote half of an essay the other day after toking and had to go back the next day and rewrite it all cause it made no sense haha.

 

I don't smoke very often anymore, but when I did, I smoked all the time. It helped me sooooo much with schoolwork. I was able to focus more, I was more motivated to get stuff done, and shitty subjects became interesting. Pot definitely helped me in school.

 

well, it depends on how much I smoke. A couple times I was really high and I did my homework....for math I did the wrong page. I wrote a poem for creative writing...(I guess that only works out if I'm slightly stoned) However, I took like 4 hits before doing homework almost everyday last week and it helped a lot. I was completely lost for spanish and math homework but I had a lil buzz and it helped A LOT. I guess I have more patience and I don't get a headache doing the work.

 

i'm in college, i smoked it on a daily basis,but i quit cause for me alegbra and weed didn't mix

 

trying to do math is too hard 30 min after you toked up b4 school, you'll try to write down numbers and you were like what were the numbers again?

 

It's weird, math made more sense to me when I was high. I only tried that twice, but still, it did come easier. Go figure, eh?

Anyways, I don't smoke very often, like, about once a week. So it's not a huge effect in my life.
