Yeah Walmart has become mostly self checkout

#

I don’t usually tip in those situations unless it’s a local/small business - in those cases the workers don’t get a lot of benefits

No he was made

And I’m pretty sure he like threw out some of the drink lol

In my case I look pretty young so I think they usually don’t expect me to tip

#

can you tell me where you got the info that most school don't accept csp credit and do you recommend taking a class outside of school that teaches you csa and take the csa test in freshman year?

gloomy lotus
#

go to almost any school's (the higher rated, the lower chance they accept credit) website and go to their ap score credit requirements. You'll notice that CSP is practically useless

#

im not saying you wont get credit if you get a score. You will get credit, but most colleges will not use that credit

#

I would recommend just taking csa yourself

#

it's a nice gpa boost and you'll be ready for the test anyways

#

focus on your ECs rather than taking piles of classes outside of school

Can I request my counselor courses which are not meant for my grade even tho I meet the prereqs? (how often are these kind of requests accepted)

if you're planning to take a medical related course in college... what classes should you take in highschool?

hardy surge
#

AP science classes for sure

proven totem

ashen rapids
#

so like bio, chem, psych?

proven totem
#

also some regular classes like health science theory

#

AP biology, AP chem etc

ashen rapids
#

i see thx

naive root
#

what are college credits? what if i take an ap class unrelated to a major? does it benefit anyway? for instance, majoring in art but took ap chem and did well?

gloomy lotus
#

your AP chem credit most likely will not help if you're majoring in art

naive root
#

cs will most likely be helpful for studying robotics

#

yeah it's also useful in general

#

how did you learn

#

cool. how long did it take for you to understand everything and all

#

lol np

Does dual enrollment affect ur weighted gpa in high school

# topaz trellis For anyone who decided that they wanted to do med school, what courses did you t...

My initial goal was to become a paramedic (I know, it isn't med school but bear with me) so my junior year I took a dual enrollment course to become an emergency medical technician. After high school some things changed and I'm now finishing my undergrad program and looking towards Physical Therapy school. It isn't med school but it is a doctor program in the medical field. Looking back at my high school years I wish I had taken either AP biology, chemistry, psychology and statistics or sought concurrent enrollment for those classes.

Not sure if that helps?

How do you decide what degree to major in if you like most of your subjects?

Hello

nonetheless its a free AP boost

I enjoyed csa, but at times it got repetitive

It was fun tho

pearl mesa
pearl mesa
#

Still a fun class

vast lintel
#

Yeah

#

How did you end up doing in the course? Like last semester grade? If you don’t want to share that’s fine

pearl mesa
#

It never ended up being too dificult

#

Although csa was probably one of my harder classes

#

I had to map out the code

#

With a table

#

It

vast lintel
#

Yeah

pearl mesa
#

It's the only way it made sense to me

vast lintel
#

Gotcha

pearl mesa
#

And that took time, and then trying to take 50 questions tests

#

I usually ended up running outta time

#

Although I am better at running the code in my head now, that just comes with practice tho

vast lintel
#

The annoying thing about the ap exam is is that in the real world, programmers are able to debug and actually test their code lol

#

Though, I agree with you that it just comes with practice and understanding what ur trying to do

pearl mesa
vast lintel
#

Yeah

#

I’m currently learning python and it has been a lot of fun

#

Might learn some other languages, theory, etc

Question

proven totem
#

what’s up

drifting fern
#

I’m thinking of going to the med field…. And my school offers classes like health science theory….. but they’re considered level classes and would lower my GPA. Would not taking those classes affect my chance at getting into good universities?

#

Btw I’m taking AP sciences like bio, Chem, etc

drifting fern
proven totem
#

No

drifting fern
#

Really?

#

That’s very relieving

proven totem
#

One class ain’t gonna change much

drifting fern
#

I moved in between high schools and my new school has a gpa max of 6.0 while my old max was a 5.0 so my gpa is a little low compared to my classmates here even though I took the hardest courses at that previous school

#

I won’t be taking any medical classes at all though…

proven totem
#

Oh

drifting fern
#

Like principals of health science, health science theory, emt, etc

#

That’s why I wanted to avoid level classes

proven totem
#

Personally I would take them but it’s upto you

#

Ik that colleges recalculate gpas for that exact reason but still

#

Hmm okay

#

Thanks for the advice

a couple of on level classes won’t change shit

Does anyone else’s school have a prerequisite class before Health Science Theory?

@elder quartz are you allowed to take all of those classes? If you look at your math, you're missing precalculus. For science, through all 4 years, you're taking only ap classes.

proven totem
#

how are you class of 2027 and a calculus helper

#

is it college class of 2027

ancient bison
#

It just seems like you've dumped a lot of science and math APS on yourself, without having the correct basis?

#

@proven totem if you know calculus, you can help no matter the age

proven totem
#

(Not all)

ancient bison
#

And no, it's hs

proven totem
#

wtf

#

bro took AP calc bc in 8th grade

ancient bison
#

No, I self studied all of my mathematics, I would rather not skip any grades.

#

Grades as in courses for math

proven totem
#

What math u taking next year?

ancient bison
#

Algebra 2

proven totem
#

💀

ancient bison
#

Have you seen IPAD or even Gladion? It's the same boat for a lot of us where we know the stuff without the class

proven totem
#

Ok

ancient bison
#

But anyways, @elder quartz I would focus on revising your math and science areas, as I'm not sure if your school allows you to miss precalculus and do all science aps

elder quartz
#

my school allows all science aps

#

and i will take a credit precalculus course

#

so i can start calculus bc

#

but i will study well for those

elder quartz
#

and it has been quite easy for me

#

so ap chem is not going to be challenging

#

also im good at math

ancient bison
#

Well alright then, dont stress yourself out with all of the aps

Same way, he's kinda famous in math help

copper coral

Him?

He is only on in Athletics?

why would you not skip algebra 2 if you already know it?

Yup, that should be the one

To me, I would rather have mastered all of the curriculums taught in high school

ancient bison

I only accept 100s in my class, especially math, so even one stone unturned is too much

But that's my opinion

copper coral

As you know, I know up to Calc BC/Multivar Calc, but I have lots of flaws

#

I am not mastered

#

Fs, but I know some stuff

ancient bison
#

Same here, I'm just doing some textbooks here and there. Until you take the courses, even through like khan academy or books, it's really hard to know if you know everything

#

I'm only up to really BC though

You should see Math Help. I am not good, but I sometimes help. But I accurately help 4/9 people that ask for help

is precalc important for calc ab?

copper coral
#

YES

proven totem
#

ok

copper coral
#

Alg II > Pre Calc

#

But, yes

#

Alg II is more important

proven totem
#

i wanna self study calc ab

copper coral

But Pre Calc is still very important, sorta

proven totem
#

for USAPHO (physics olympiad)

ancient bison

What's usapho

#

Oooooh nice

proven totem
#

it has some calc in it

copper coral
ancient bison

Yeah precalculus is important

copper coral
#

and then do an calc

ancient bison
#

Like vectors

#

And some other stuff that could be shown in physics

copper coral
#

6 of the units in pre calc. . . are repeat of calc ab

proven totem
ancient bison

Also a lot of trig

#

Yeah that's good, but you can do the precalculus bolk

copper coral

From aops

#

The precalculus book from aops covers basically everything if not everything possible

copper coral
#

Conic Sections are taught in Alg II

ancient bison
#

Also listen to Gladion

#

Ye

copper coral
#

So, no need to self study Conics

ancient bison
#

Yup

#

But can't you take usapho even in 11th or 12th?

#

What's the qualifications to reach it

proven totem
#

AP Physics 1 and AP Physics C knowledge

ancient bison
#

I wanna go into physics, so I'm starting to study that

#

No I mean is there like some state or regional comps you take before the usapho

proven totem
#

f=ma

#

if u get a top something something score on that u get into USAPHo semifinalist

#

physics C should be enough for semifinalist (from what ive read)

copper coral
#

I forgot Pre Calc has 4 units 💀, anyways what to study for is all of unit 4, and trig (if you know how to graph it, than don’t do it)

#

Polar functions are necessary also

copper coral

Hm?

proven totem

is that khan academy

copper coral

This is Khan Academy

how long will it take me to get thru them

i have big time commitments

on AMC 10, USACO and Machine Learning

All together. . . roughly 16 hours

Unit 10 is 10 hours, and it is for a reason. It is the most important

proven totem

Wow.

#

Let me check what units you need to do

proven totem
#

ill learn alg 2 by october or november (from aops)

#

then i can focus on precalc and calculus

copper coral
#

So you will not do Pre Calc and Alg II at the same time

#

You will learn Pre Calc after Alg II?

proven totem
#

yea

copper coral
#

OK

proven totem
#

around novemebr

copper coral
#

Units 3, 6, 10

#

Those units are what you need

#

If you don’t know trig after Alg II, I suggest you learn it

It will only be 2 and a half hours

Yes; you CAN take an after or before school class, but I can’t take one until year 11 (driving license), plus I’m not particularly willing to do either (don’t want to deal w/ all the sleep issues/want to do clubs, which are all after school).
