High school is just one of those places which they teach you a lot of unneeded stuff, only to have that knowledge be dropped into the Memory Dump. Not everyone is going to memorize the names of all the ions (and polyatomic ions) they teach you in Chemistry... many fields don't require that.

I'll just assure you, college/university is a lot more light on the schoolwork, but the concepts could be mind-boggling. I mean, we have about 3 days worth of homework per week, usually due on the weekend (at least, that's how it is at UC San Diego), but your instructors are a lot less accessible than your high school ones.

Also, remember that a couple of us on the wiki (Ishi and I) are college students. If you need school-help of any sort, just drop by chat. I usually just lurk, so you'll catch me eventually.
