It sounds like you’re really feeling the pressure! Sophomore slump is definitely a thing, and balancing schoolwork with gaming can be tough. Here are a few tips that might help you get back on track:
Time Management: Try creating a schedule where you allocate specific times for studying and breaks for gaming. This way, you can enjoy your time on R6 Siege without sacrificing your grades.

Study Techniques: Experiment with different study methods, like flashcards, study groups, or teaching the material to someone else. Find out what works best for you.
Limit Distractions: When you’re studying, put your gaming aside for that time. You can use apps or tools that block distracting sites to help you stay focused.
Ask for Help: Don’t hesitate to reach out to classmates or teachers if you’re struggling with something specific. They can offer support and resources.
Stay Healthy: Make sure you’re getting enough sleep, eating well, and taking breaks to keep your mind sharp.
And remember, it’s okay to take breaks and play games as long as you have a balance. Good luck, and you’ve got this!
