今天无意中进入一个澳洲网站论坛，看到篇帖子，是一个15岁小鬼老贴上去的，他学琴八年，有一天发现自己对弹琴失去了兴趣，想放弃，问问大家该怎么办？
几乎99%的跟帖都是结合自己学琴的经历，来帮忙出主意的，大体有两点：
（1）如果没有兴趣，可以先放一放，专注高考，但一定不要放弃。
很多学生都是在学琴多年后，在Y11、Y12这个阶段彻底放弃学琴，而专注于学习了。考完后，有些只是自学，有些不学，再大些后，这些无论在哪个阶段放弃钢琴的琴童，都或多或少抱存着悄悄的遗憾——如果当时能坚持下来就好了，哪怕是不上课、自己只是练习练习，也比彻底放弃要强。
（2）如果现在彻底放弃，等自己明白过味来，只有抱憾终身了，很难再回到那种对音乐的精神状态。
有一个人（我感觉像是老头）写了很长（原文请见最下面），我有特别的感触。他第一句话就写道：“孩子，你只需要试着改变一下你现在正在做的方式，重新唤起你学琴的动力就可以了”。“老头”挺专业地分析了各种情况，提出多种方法，简言之就是：“相较于你即将逝去的对钢琴的热爱，钢琴考级已经不是什么重要的事了”。
结果，经过论坛上大家掏心掏肺般的分析，这个小孩和家里人以及钢琴老师认真沟通过后，取得一致意见：不再学习考级曲目了，就练习自己喜欢的曲子。后来，小鬼佬还发动论坛上的人帮他一起找轻摇滚的曲目。
看看这热情恢复得多快！

Apologies in advance for the long post.
You just need a bit of a change to what you have been doing to get your motivation going again. There is absolutely no reason whatsoever why you have to do an exam each year every year. And similarly, there is no reason why you have to choose exam pieces (or other pieces to learn) that are only in the exam book for your grade or syllabus. Talk with your teacher—that's what they are there for. Or, find another one.
There's no real reason why you should quit just because you've hit the final 2 years of school. You can quite easily do it for the HSC as mentioned by another poster. This is for NSW, but it should be fairly similar for other states. You get your topics selected for year 12 (e.g. the 'good' ones such as instrument and it's repertoire and 20th century music), don't do these for year 11 as you can't do them again in year 12 and you can't re-use pieces. The trick is to pick pieces for your HSC that you like and so that you'll get good marks. Also pick them so that you can use the exact same ones at the end of the year to do a performance exam. You may need to learn an extra one or two to get time limits and you still need to write up a programme but it's not like you've had to learn all the HSC pieces AND exam pieces all in the one year.
The AGMS offer these types of exams and they are pretty much equivalent. I.e. Grade 1 AGMS can be used as grade 1 for AMEB. At it's most basic, the performance exams are just a normal grade exam without the technical and aural work but with a programme as an added extra (just like the duets, below). However, they are much more than that. You could do an exam on a common theme such as all romantic composers, all jazz music, all rock music, the sonata through the ages, music in motion pictures, 20th century music and so on—whatever interests you. There's no real set syllabus, but obviously you can't do something that would be considered grade 1 standard for a grade 4 or whatever exam.
Considered doing a duet exam with a friend/another student that goes to the same teacher as you? They're great fun and quite different to the usual standard exam. Trinity Guildhall used to have grades 1-8 but unfortunately they have scaled it back to three (beginner, intermediate and advanced) but they're still good none-the-less. It's a performance type exam so you get all dressed up, announce your pieces, put together a programme and pretend the examiner is the audience in an auditorium. Great fun blaming your partner for all the mistakes too. They also have piano for 6 hands certificates as well.
Some other things to try:
Take in some pieces, buy some, or ask your teacher if they have any pieces that YOU want to learn. It can be very interesting and rewarding browsing through a (good) music store. There's tonnes of stuff available these days: songs from movies, popular songs, different arrangements, blues, jazz and even music from games (e.g. Final Fantasy).
If your teacher is heavily into the AMEB syllabus and basically teaches from nothing but that (which is pretty poor form for a teacher IMHO), they should at least know about the Music for Leisure section (or Piano for Leisure I think it is). It mainly consists of popular and well known pieces. You can use some of these pieces as your extra lists; for example, the theme from Mission Impossible is in the grade 6 book and you can use that for your grade 6 extra list. (Be sure to read the requirements carefully though.)
My advice is to use the rest of this year to explore the options that are available and see if you can find something that gets you motivated again. Talk to your teacher. Also, think positively—e.g. you're up to Grade X, that means you've only got 8-X grades go.
