"James has done all the work required of him, but only at home. In class his hyperactive behaviour prevented him from doing much work. He needs to learn to use class time more efficiently."

Here I thought being a distraction to others was a good thing. >_<

Omg...I had to live with this...in like 3 classes.
NEXT YEAR...WILL YOU PLEASE STFU...I really want to concentrate on my studies *cough*.
But I can't really talk. ;)

Dude, look at your marks. Tell me how you can honestly say my actions were a disservice to you.

Hmmm...indeed. In fact I can say with confidence that you actually helped me through the year. I guess the only conclusion is that such behaviour is beneficial.

So returning on-topic, you should learn to embrace such people who ask a billion random questions because they are extremely useful.

Not when they ask things like whats 2 times 6 or something while you're in the middle of a long question ..

It cant get that annoying can it? Im always talking about irrevlevant things with friends in class, yet i still manage to complete my work. Also sometimes it may be a good thing, she may ask a question that you dont know.
If its really irritating you then just talk to her about it, she'll understand if she truly is your bestfriend.

You may think I'm worrying about it a bit to early but one of my best friends is a real distraction to me in class.. And my other friends think I should do something about it too but I don't know what.
She's constantly yelling out simple things like 'whats the molar mass of magnesium?', 'whats 8 times 4?': simple questions that can be answered if she thought about it for a second. And I am a really easily distracted student who is constantly losing focus due to her random questions that come literally every minute or so =_=
I was only in year 11 this year so I didn't care so much but year 12 will be a big year and I don't want her to get in my way. I don't know if I sound very selfish or anything right now but it's been really bugging me and I don't know what to do. I mean.. I'm happy to help her and all but she's taking it too far. And although I'm the only one she asks all the time, the people around us get annoyed at it too. Thought I could ask you guys for some advice :)

you have the right to learn and listen in class so no, you are not being selfish. just tell her openly and that you really want to do well. she's your best friend after all? so she should understand.
