School can be hard. Like, really, really hard. This is especially true if you're taking Advanced Placement (AP) classes, hoping to earn college credit.

Nothing makes us want to crawl under our bed and hide when a teacher decides to slap on an extra 30 pages of reading "because you're AP kids." Here are 14 faces anyone who's ever been in an AP class can easily relate to.

When you get the syllabus on the first day of class and know you're doomed PBS When teachers assume that being in an AP class means you looooove doing more work Paramount Pictures When each of your AP classes expect a 7-page paper, all due on the same day NBC / Yahoo Screen When non-AP kids complain about all of their homework Warner Bros. When you think your spine is ruined because you've spent the past 8 hours hunched over at your desk Nickelodeon When you realize your five-question homework assignment actually consists of 10 parts for each question Universal Pictures When someone asks, "Are you in AP?" and you try to play it off like it's not a big deal DreamWorks Pictures When someone tries to tell you AP classes aren't really that different from non-AP classes Warner Bros When you overhear your friends bragging about how they don't have any homework this weekend, and your AP teacher just assigned a TON of reading Warner Bros. When you stay up all night to finish your 60-question assignment, only to have the teacher extend the deadline because it was "just too much for one night" Disney / Pixar When you notice characters on TV shows who are in AP classes, but never seem to have any homework NBC When you studied for the AP test non-stop for weeks... and ended up not passing CBS Or when you do end up passing NBC And, when your teacher's reasoning for adding on extra work is "because you're AP" BBC One

Happy back to school!
