Idk ask any experience people

#

If you applying any European countries they need language test if course taught in their country language.

mint thorn
#

It’ll count, sure, but most colleges like to see you try to learn a new language

#

Dont listen to this lawliet person

#

He doesnt know what hes talking about

#

Then is the problem not enough space in ur schedule?

#

Okay so basically these are two electives for ADST, and I chose computer programming as one of them and I just needed help choosing the other one. Hope that clears it up

ap physics

weak surge
cinder gorge
#

no

i dont do history

neon belfry
#

im a freshman and classes like this is around as rigorous as i can take

whatever interests you

next year im taking precalc, ap physics, ap seminar, apush, chem, french, and ap cs a (ap java)

#

thats around the toughest classes i can take

id say find what sparks your interest and challenge yourself extra in those areas

#

at my school it is

who are u bruh

cinder gorge
neon belfry
#

who said its limited

cinder gorge
#

Try some cc classes

those are the options i have

cinder gorge
cinder gorge
neon belfry
#

i can take those junior year

cinder gorge
#

Y?

neon belfry
#

bc we cant take them sophomore year??

cinder gorge
#

Just enroll at ur local cc or go to a different one if a cc doesnt offer it

cinder gorge
neon belfry
#

u wanna talk to my school board ab it?

cinder gorge
#

Im just asking y

neon belfry
#

i cant tell you cus idk

Try asking

#

we have like early college programs but that only starts at 11th

cinder gorge

Not early college, i mean de or sa

neon belfry

dual enrollment stuff

#

for juniors and seniors

cinder gorge
#

Nope

#

U can take it anytime

As long as u dont have ur hs diploma yet, u can take it whenever

cinder gorge

#

@neon belfry

cinder gorge
neon belfry
#

they seem fine if thats as hard as you can go

#

maybe try and do some self studying or programs and take some ap tests outside of school too

neon belfry
#

man some people like to learn

#

its not all for a resume or list of accomplishments

cinder gorge
#

Well there’s better things to do with that time then doing a random ap test

neon belfry
#

youre learning valuable material still

#

taking the class from a separate, non school sponsored source isnt a bad thing

cinder gorge
neon belfry
#

maybe thats just a difference in values then

cinder gorge
#

Nope

#

I’ve literally talked to enough people that got accepted to fancy schools to know this

#

Including UCLA admissions officers

i mean even if its useless for college

4 aps soph year is pretty good

austere tulip
# cinder gorge Not early college, i mean de or sa

Duck u realize de isn’t the only good thing to do. That persons doing four aps soph year and like two of them are notorious for being VERY difficult. So they already have the rigor. It’s about balance, and they have the rigor so don’t need the cc.

i want to go to somewhere like an ivy league ( i just started thinking about ivy league a couple months ago) because for someone like me i want to bring as much value as i can to helping people, and innovating, and i feel Princeton/harvard have the best resources for me.

what?

mighty mist

but i only have two years left until im done with hs and then i have to apply to undergrads

mighty mist

but colleges like freaking Princeton and Harvard expect me to be masters at something in the womb. i realize im a sophomore in hs, and i don't know how to play an instrument(im learning), not amazing at the sports i play, and my gpa is under 4.0. I feel like the last thing i can do is just show through my classes my interest in something consistent.

you’re so rude

it’s not being blunt or honest it’s just disrespectful

@worn sable it’s good that you have goals

just know you need to do the hard work

and it’s not like non ivy colleges are bad

you can do good anywhere, but having goals is good

don’t be discouraged if you feel under qualified or bad or anything

uHM COUgh cough

#

I am going to take 3 APs in 11th grade: ap physics, ap chem, and ap calc bc

  • the thing is I appealed for a 4th ap which is ap lang since I heard ap lang is easier than english 11 but it got rejected so should I just take ap lang in senior year or directly ap lit in senior year (I am taking english 11 in 11th grade)

Why they rejected you?

What's wrong with AP lit

If i were u, i would do ap physics senior yr and move one of ur classes from senior yr to junior yr

my junior years gonna be hell too

i have like

5 or 6 aps

cinder gorge

But y not spread out the aps?

neon belfry

take even more the year after

Uh huh for the weighted gpa or what

neon belfry

gives me time to take classes i find interesting senior year even if they won’t necessarily benefit me

If u just want the weighted gpa, de is much easier

not for gpa

But rigor is the same

Like if u do ap hug instead of ap world

That’s taking the easy way out

We’re doing less classes than you

How easy is ap psychology?

And then it’s not that easy

Like u can’t just go switcheroo

Some aps have

And then others are only allowed a specific year of high school

#

from the experiences of my friends, psych isn't hard in the sense that it requires a lot of thinking. There is just a lot of stuff to memorize

cerulean hollow
#

what’s the difference between AP classes and Honors classes

austere tulip
#

Ap classes are also standardized

#

In terms of an exam you have to take at the end of the year

#

And it’s meant to be college level

#

Honors usually gives 4.5 gpa credit

#

An AP 5.0

#

Tho many schools do it differently

but i also want to take AP physics 1

My school only offers college courses no aps. Will it look the same to colleges?

sharp wigeon

i cant say if itll look the same, but i dont think you'll be penalized for not taking ap's because you're school literally doesn't offer any. as long as you take some of the more rigorous courses offered, colleges will understand that you did your best academically within the context of your own school

Then it means u can, they just dont reccomend it, like im in a class thats made for 11-12 graders

@austere tulip why uk left European union

ripe olive
#

When should I take o chem

#

Like what year of highschool

austere tulip
#

One thing was that they didn’t want europe to limit their trade

#

It was also due to the fact that during that time there was a conservative government

#

And another thing

#

So basically Europeans say that the “PIGS”

#

Are leeching off money

#

This just means that poorer countries like Italy, Greece, and Spain, (I forgot the P) are benefitting from being in the EU while richer countries like the UK were losing money

#

But overall

#

There was not much of a benefit

And they lost money

my alg2 teacher said she isn’t supposed to recommend it but i can if i want

i might take it with a tutor on the side too

hey guys i had a question

#

so I'll be batch 2028 for college and I really wanna learn Japanese

#

will that help my college application in any way? cause i wanna learn that language only if it can contribute to my application cause otherwise it'll take too much time for nothing

#

my school isn't offering any AP or courses regarding this though

mighty mist
faint pebble
#

so I'll probably do it from a certified online course

faint pebble
faint pebble
mighty mist
faint pebble
#

i really wanna get into UCLA

#

that's on my mind

#

and yes i am

mighty mist
#

I dont know how far you can get learning a language in less than 7 months unless you have background in it

faint pebble
#

i do have background on it

mighty mist
#

Usually with language, college want to see you learning it for at least a couple of years

faint pebble
#

i used to learn it, then i skipped the 2nd part of the course

#

let's say i can show 2 years of course

#

but not from my school

mighty mist
#

So would you report a standardized test for the language?

#

Like besides learning it, need to demonstrate why you did it, helped other people. Language on its own is not an EC

faint pebble
#

i was planning on attaching my certificate from the course

#

it's from an international site so they offer certificates

mighty mist
#

And why are you learning it? the way you will frame it to college admissions

faint pebble
#

i will present it to my best but basically because i love learning languages and experiencing different cultures and experiences from different parts of the world

#

do you think it'll be an advantage if i put it in my apps?

#

if i attach the certificate and reasoning

mighty mist
mighty mist
faint pebble
#

i see

#

i better start preparing then

mighty mist
neon belfry
#

intended cs

#

but i like math

royal swan
# neon belfry yes it is

So, if it's structured like a typical college summer class, that's roughly one month worth of the normal semester-long content crammed into a week for four weeks. Plus, a test every week.

Do you feel that you're dedicated and self-motivated enough to put in the work? Be honest with yourself.

HELLO!
I'm bouncing between a lot of AP classes I'd like to take next year, here are the one's I'm trying to choose between:
(All AP):

Calc AB
Lang
Chem 2
US History
Psycholohy
Econ
French 5
Seminar

If you have any input on what your experience was in any of these classes then I'd love for you to share! 💙

#

Psychology is a pretty interesting class I'm being biased here bc I'm a psych major, but it's a really good class imo bc of the things that you learn.

gloomy lotus
#

as sheng_li said, psych is a great option regardless of major

#

if you're going stem, id go with Calc AB (BC) if possible and you're good with math

#

lang is also a great class to consider, it teaches you to write well

Hey can someobody tell me how i can time manage my coureses well?

Im taking two of the hardest science too, Ap chem and Ap physics

right after ap exams are done

#

i start a tutor

#

like outside of school stuff

#

and learn some of the material starting this summer

#

then as im taking the class it further develops my knowledge

#

and if all goes to hell ill just have to drop out and go back to honors precalc next year

yea

#

thats around what were learning right now

vital olive
#

that's like geo trig tho

#

like stuff i learned in my geo class

#

do you know trig identities

#

unit circle

#

all that stuff

royal swan
neon belfry
#

well

#

our curriculum across county goes like that

#

youd take algebra 2

#

which covers trig

#

and then

#

go to precalc

#

then go to calc

#

like we learned this stuff a few weeks ago

#

id say a month maybe

#

a "rush" through trig would then be a countywide problem

neon belfry
#

we learned all that before this

vital olive
#

what

neon belfry
#

that was the first bit of trig we did i think

#

like all the "ferris wheel" problems?

#

all the stuff w the unit circle

royal swan
neon belfry
#

true

#

the plan im thinking of right now

#

is to do the tutor thing and start early may

#

and then take both precalc a and b

#

across two months

#

and then continue

#

my dad also did like a lottttt of calculus in college and was saying hed 100% help me on anything i needed help with

#

right now im just debating on if the education will be good neough

#

because im totally willing to put the effort in and learn it

#

outside of just the class

#

but im still nto sure

#

if itll be worth it

#

then that means im taking 5 aps next year

#

which is tough

royal swan
neon belfry
#

i actually asked her otday

#

she said

#

they are told not to recommend it

#

and then she said but i could do it

#

im not sure if the meaning was in a motiational, approving way

#

or more of a technical way

#

she finalized with "whats the rush"

#

which was a good point

#

but i do want to get ahead and i want the challenge

#

as well as taking higher math classes in dual enrollment programs senior year and stuff

royal swan
neon belfry
#

good idea

royal swan
neon belfry
#

yea thats true

#

that was the only thing

#

but i do want to take higher math classes senior year

neon belfry
#

i like math

#

i guess

#

i want to learn more

royal swan
# neon belfry i like math

That's understandable, but the courses will be there regardless if you take them senior year or in college. Whatever you choose, set yourself up for success.

neon belfry
#

very true

#

so you think i should just stay away from all that

#

the "ultra compressed" precalc

#

yea thats probably a good idea

#

i will talk to my teacher ab it tho

royal swan
neon belfry
#

thats a good idea

#

thank you

thats pretty good. If you think you can handle it and study well, then go for it. My philosophy is that theres not much harm in trying, and if you get to the class and decide that you think youre going to get a bad ap score then, you will have tried somehting and learned something

How worth is it to take AP Physics C?

ap seminar worth as a replacement for hon eng 10?

does it count as english?

#

i thought it was an elective

I would say keep seminar for 11th or 12th grade English

#

Because u will probably not be doing ap lit

Maybe not ap lang

So it would be a benefit

To at least have some experience with literature and like analysis

i just want to make sure you know what you’re getting into

austere tulip
#

Because think about it

#

There are many majors in both comp sci and physics

#

I think the first one was comp sci right?

#

Anyways

#

So for example

#

Computer engineering

#

That would throw both those interests in there

#

Electrical engineering a bit more physics and less comp sci but still good

#

But yeah those two are good

# cinder gorge I am in a lot of confusion. Till last week i.e (19/4/23) , my interest was in C...

Like @austere tulip said, you should try to find a major that overlaps both of your interests. If you are interested in both subjects, then you will be even stronger in your intended major than if you were only focused on one or the other. If I were you, I would start by trying to focus on both in college because then if it gets to be too much you can just drop down the workload by switching majors or dropping other prior commitments. If you choose one or the other now, it will be a lot more difficult to switch down the road, and you will be limiting your ability. Some majors that require skill in both physics and Comp Sci are Astrophysics, Computer Engineering, Computational Physics, and Quantum Computing.

Yeah that’s a good schedule in terms of rigor

I mean if you think you cannot handle Apush then don’t do it

#

Here’s what I recommend

#

Do APush

#

But then don’t do ap gov

#

Because you are also doing ohysics C and Chem

#

And both of them are very time consuming

Hey guys, I'm selecting my courses for 10th grade. does this look okay?
Our graduation requirement is 21 credits. I've fulfilled 7.5 already. I don't know what university I wanna go to but I wanna go to a good one, hopefully an Ivy. I'm interested in languages and music right now. We don't have APs at our school.

I need help with choosing a course after 12th grade
Currently my 12th grade started and my subjects are PCB( Physics, Chemistry and Biology )
So I am struggling to choose between Bachelor of Pharmacy (B.pharm) and Bachelor of Computer science (Bsc. CS)
I really like computer science

tough sun
#

..

#

But you can take BCA ( a 3 years computer application course similar to cs )

#

..

#

On thing you can do is take math as optional subject in 12th you can request your school to do it

#

..

#

Because if you are in CBSE you can add 9 optional subject till 12th

tough sun
#

Follow your passion

That college allows anyone to do Bsc CS who have completed HSC in science so even if i have have biology i can do that course

HSC in science means anyone who passed 12th grade with science

# mint anchor Can a civil engineer major in computer engineering?

It's possible to earn multiple bachelor's degrees in different engineering disciplines. For example, some universities allow you to simultaneously earn aerospace and mechanical degrees given the overlap.

What's your motivation for pursuing degrees in both civil and computer?

# mint anchor I’m planning in Canada or Switzerland

Licensure is prevalent for civils in the US and in many countries. If you want to practice as a civil, you may need to pursue licensure for career advancement and pay. In the US, the process generally involves four years experience and two exams.

For licensure, Canada is similar to the US. Each country/jurisdiction will have their own policy.

tnx

royal swan
# mint anchor tnx

In short, my point is it's possible to earn both degrees, but it might be more complicated to fully utilize both degrees it depending on your goals and location.

At my high school we allowed to do that

Firstly, the reputation

It doesn't have any reputation of itself

I agree

But, the tag is something which impressed people over the time

Second

#

IIT itself is not the greatest college with the best faculty

It's the people who make it into IIT

#

Who make the college prestigious

The ones who get into IIT

Lemme tell you something

#

The reason we're tested in maths phy and chem

#

Is solely because people can understand that you can understand things to an greater extent

#

And think in many ways
