Oh, please, I'm grading 7th grade ISTEP (the Indiana standardized test), and this is the exact question I've been preparing to train evaluators on.  I have seen about 400 papers of  answers to this question.  Because the biological clocks of teenagers change, so that they begin to go to sleep later and get up later, some say they should start later.  Others say that it should remain the same for some of the following reasons:\n\n1.  To change it would mess up their after school sports and activities schedules, especially if they changed and other local schools didn't.\n2.  They wouldn't have time to get their homework done.\n3.  Some kids' parents drop them off, which they couldn't do if school was later.\n4.  Getting up earlier prepares them for college and work.\n5.  They wouldn't have time to spend with their parents.

if your alarm is set for the same time everyday and go to sleep around the same time the night before your body gets use to it and basiclly is on a cycle and gets use to the time that you wake up in the morning.

Set your clock back an hour later so that when you wake up, it's going to be 3am - the witching hour.  Bet you'd get more creeped out!

1 am. I used to go to bed earlier but I realized that I don't need as much sleep. So 1am to 8am.\n\nGood question, I was curious about this one too!

Hey,..i've noticed this too. And uncannily, if i set the alarm for 6:30,...i'll get up exactly a minute before that time and i put it off. And anyway,... theres a pattern to this. The thing is that this usually happens when i'm really eager to get my butt off my bed early for watever reason.

usually, the more you sleep, the more tired you are, the more sleepy... but if you have been staying up late or working hard this week or so, i think your body is still trying to recharge, try to get some rest, not sleep, this afternoon (because the week-end is still far). a hot bath, some relaxing music, a light healthy meal, then sleep 7 hours, and tomorrow morning, with a healthy breakfast, you will be fresher than ever!!

Sarah, presuming that you are not under any abnormal stress or circumstances, i.e change of diet or exersize routine, I'm guessing that you're between 13 and 20 years old?\n\nThrough studies of sleep patterns of people between the ages of 8 and 90 recently conducted in Germany, it appears that our biological clock (that is to say, whether we stay up and rise late or early) changes when we hit puberty. \nThough children will generally be 'larks,' teenagers will go to bed progressively later and rise later until about 20 years old. Then the process reverses, and elderly people eventually experience the opposite problem to teenagers, they cannot stay asleep and rise too early.\n\nThe change in our body clock when we hit puberty causes teenagers to experience symptoms not unlike that of jetlag; not being able to sleep and then battling to rise in the morning, feeling tired and sluggish. In America scientists have even found the same syptoms as narcolepsy in some teenagers!\n\nBut there might still be some hope! Some schools in Minnesota have already moved their start time back an hour, and if the changes do occur elsewhere they're hoping for schools and Universities not to start before 11 am.\n\nBut in the meantime what you can try is getting more light in the morning, even just for a quick walk outside. This can help to re-adjust the body clock because the light outside on a rainy day is much much stronger than the light inside. We are sensitive to light in more ways than we realize and most of us are stuck inside too much and it can cause health problems such as these.\n\nIf this seems like it could be what's causing your sleep problems, get hold of The New Scientist article from 2 September 2006, it makes for a very eye-opening read.

I don't know what time zone you're in, but I would suggest possibly taking a nap for a couple of hours then going to bed at your regular bedtime tonight. That way you don't totally throw off your body clock tomorrow. You need to get some sleep though!

You can use your alarm clock to set the time you wake up every day a little earlier hn the day before so you can get adjusted. Then, stay at the time you want to wake up at and in a few days, you will get up earlier.

yeah in the sun during the day you have a couple then you lay down for a while and you wake up grabbing your pants swearing and cursing thinking you're late for work. Its not til after your shower you realise you've got about twelve hours before you got to clock on.....................\nso now you are fully refreshed, all caught up on your sleep what  do you do all night?!?!??
