Does Marijuana affect academic success?

     Many drug users will deny the fact that drugs have a negative impact on the human body, because they are already indulged in the addiction of it. Marijuana of course is one of those drugs that users will say that it is not addictive and that is easy to quit. Some drugs make people hallucinate while others cause the user to have "mood swings". Marijuana is now very popular among adolescents and many come to school stoned.
     Now from my perspective marijuana does effect academic success and it is proven that concentration is nearly impossible and is shown in the students' grades. To get an accurate study for this research I must formulate a survey/questionnaire, which has been made, and pass out to students that smoke marijuana, this will be no problem since there are many potheads around high schools. Included in the survey/questionnaire will be an option where the students can anonymously include their GPA.
     Since primary data has not been collected I cannot come to a conclusion at the moment, but if future blogs allow us to blog of our results I will be glad to do so.
