Mine has a strong relation to school, and the comments are great, but the score is only mediocre.

While it's irritating to have lost my 6 a couple days ago, I hardly feel as though I'm being trounced on for the subject.

I'm running into the same thing. Only a handful with any connection to 'School'. I could understand if this challenge was called 'Musical Instruments'. FWIW, I don't have an entry in this challenge - just venting a little.

Well I was going to dress up as a schoolgirl...you know...just to MEET the challenge...but I figured I would be hammered with rotten tomatoes....again!!


Well you could do that anyway and just post it in your portfolio. Be sure to also add the 50 or so outtakes. :P


Geez...you are behind the time...I did that for a challenge last year.

It is strange. Usually voters are very strict with DNMC but not so for School Days. It was the same back with School Days Chemistry and Geometry.

If you claim to be a photographer AND a teacher of biology THEN you'd have some pressure. So, are you a photographer? :D

Look forward to seeing your entry on the front page when all is said and done.


Well, I'm fairly pleased with my entry. My son gave me an idea for the title, so if it tanks, I'm blaming him! I'm feeling much better, now. :D


Alright Girl, I am in and kinda pleased as well, so lets kick some WPL butt!!

OK...major snowstorm here last night, so school was called off. Now I can work on my School entry. I'm feeling a lot of pressure with this because I TEACH BIOLOGY! You think it might be easier to have access to a lab? HA! I've taken some pictures in my classroom, but I think my best entry is going to be one that I did at home.


The pressure is on, ya better be in the top 10 or..... :) Van (a wildlife biologist)

i have a biology degree and am having a hard time coming up with an idea. i also play a couple instruments, and am having a hard time with ideas there too...

maybe it's because my left eye is swollen to the point of serious pain. my eye caused me to miss the 'fruit and veggie' challenge even though i had a killer idea, and no one else entered anything similar - ppfffffftttt - errr anyone got a sterile spoon?

EDIT: it's obviously making it difficult to type as well...

An idea not talked about yet regarding School Days: Music

How about shots depicting music with school related subjects?
Schools Out For Summer - Alice Cooper
Hot For Teacher - Van Halen
Don't Stand So Close To Me - Police

I'm sure there's others.

I did both Biology and Music in Yr 11 and 12 of course I hated biology and gave it up after one year, Music after Art was my top scoring subject ^_^
We were a wild music class lol
