[gloomy lotus]

CSP shouldn't be too bad. APUSH can be a little difficult though

depends on your teacher

[full tinsel]

Oh

I got the GOAT in terms of APUSH

I plan on majoring in astrophysics in college but this year I plan on knocking out a majority of graduation requirements

Junior and Senior Year is when I'll load on my science and math classes

Also cuz I would like to get another social study AP done should I self study AP HUG if I can?

[austere tulip]

When u share your schedule you might want to block out the name of your teachers and your high school building name

Well anyways

Is it worth self studying AP HUG for a AP in social studies?

Lol

[full tinsel]

AP HUG or AP Psych?

I plan on taking AP Spanish Lang

And maybe I'll self study Spanish Lit. or Italian

[proven totem]

if u wanna work in a chinese factory take mandarin

[full tinsel]

+1000000 social credit

I feel like mandarin gonna be too hard

Maybe I'll try german

I can rank my top 3 sp

Should I self study AP HUG

For a social studies class

[proven totem]

idk but lets wait for @austere tulip

[full tinsel]

Ok

We're now the #course-selection gang

[gloomy lotus]

no

i mean if you want to yeah

but if its not related to your major, no point

also the fail rate is crazy for the class

[full tinsel]

Ok

Pass Rate 59%

Yeah that's like the hardest class to self study

[proven totem]

what

the fuk

[full tinsel]

I'm not taking it for my major, I just want another social studies class under my belt

Cuz I took AP Gov

Most colleges want like 2 social studies classes I believe

[proven totem]

breh

[rancid merlin]

Yea you could

[proven totem]

Can u not take it in school

[full tinsel]

Not offered at my school

Unless I transfer

To another school in the county

Butt

This kid is only transfering for AP Physics C

[full tinsel]

But yeah

I shall talk to my counselor about self studying

I shall also self study AP Physics 2

(When I take AP Physics C cuz they overlap)

[daring marsh]

Are there any courses I should avoid taking?

[proven totem]

courses which ur not sure if u can handle

[full tinsel]

Depends on what u want to go into in college

[swift sundial]

Is UNC Greensboro and UNC Wilmington good? (For computer science major)

[full tinsel]

Idk

Just go to Chapel Hill

[swift sundial]

Expensive

[daring marsh]

Ah, Computer Science :0

[lyric quest]

fellow cs major

hopefully

so does your school offer any cs modules

or classes

?

[full tinsel]

Ummmm

Just take CS and Math APs

Like AP CSP, CS A, Stat, Calc AB, and BC

Maybe even Precalc

Idk wut AP Courses u shouldn't take

Maybe something like Bio

Human Geo

Psych

Also when does school start for yall

Shame we don't have that many APs in the CCPS Curriculae

[odd temple]

Should I take AP CS A?
Im gonna take AP CSP regardless tho
I have zero knowledge or Java or Data structures so IDK

[gloomy lotus]

you'll learn everything from scratch in APCA

but take csp first if you have to, then csa

[daring marsh]

Yes, and related ones as well I believe. It’s a pretty sizable school :0

There’s an IT class and CSA, etc.

Someone told me to take OS

I’ll see if we have that

[chrome owl]

has anybody skipped geometry

[proven totem]

yes

[chrome owl]

how was it

[proven totem]

ez

[pallid trellis]

I'd say alg2 would probably be easier to skip, since geo is very memorization-intensive and also the proofs are annoying

[proven totem]

wath

[chrome owl]

[proven totem]

breh

[chrome owl]

i might finally switch to a good course selection school again and i since i know calc AB but with a lot of knowledge gaps i figured id take alg 2 THEN calc ab

hopefully i DO switch schools tho

[pallid trellis]

wdym

[pallid trellis]

You could also try to self study AP Precalc ig

[proven totem]

bro waht

precalc is hard

[pallid trellis]

Eh AP Precalc is a joke compared to my honors Precalc class

[proven totem]

[chrome owl]

thats the thing.. self studying has given me a lot of knowledge gaps in alg 2 and stuff

[proven totem]

good for u

[chrome owl]

dude if you dont wanna help then leave

[proven totem]

what

Smh

[normal ember]

honestly though. I checked the AP Precalc contents and it has far less than my honors precalc class

and my precalc course is online (FLVS)

[willow otter]

Yo which one would be better to take Discrete math or AP Human geo. For context I am a high school senior this year and I want to major in environmental engineering. So far I have Calculus BC, Engineering class, English Honors, AP Chem, AP Psych, and Spanish.

I know that like Discrete is more technical for engineering but also human geo maybe better for my pursuing major

[normal ember]

I can't really comment much on this (I'm only a rising Sophomore) but what I can tell you is that AP Human Geo is a great class that actually taught me a lot about the world and how things work. However, it is Human Geography, after all, not Physical Geography. (Once again, take this advice with a grain of salt as I'm not very experienced)

If you would like me to send you various lessons I saved from my Human Geography class for you to see if it would be a good course for you, DM me

[willow otter]

Gotcha thank you!

[normal ember]

No problem!

[willow otter]

Has anyone taken Discrete Math?

[swift sundial]

Is taking python in school worth it?

[pliant swift]

Should I take discrete math in high school if I want to major in cs?

[cinder hound]

I’m a 9th grader, are my classes decent? I’m aiming for good schools and criminal Justice career:
Honors Biology,
AP Human Geography,
Honors English,
Ethnic Studies,
JROTC,
AP Spanish Lang&Culture ( Spanish 3)

[serene spade]

@mastergato's avatar

[cinder hound]

Oh

[odd temple]

should I take AP Gov as a freshman? Im hearing now that its really hard so im kinda worried

[pearl mesa]

I’d say no, when you’re older, you’ll take classes like APUSH that are a good starting point to AP gov

But yk, ultimately up to you

It’s doable as a freshman, but harder than if you wait

[odd temple]

Should I take AP World first?

[pearl mesa]

That’s how a lot of ppl do it

APWH —> APUSH —> APGOV/ECON

[odd temple]

The thing is, for the program i'm doing in my school, I have to take both AP World and AP Gov by 10th grade,so I have to decide which order I do it

[pearl mesa]

Take world first then

[odd temple]

OK tysm

[pearl mesa]

Tho it’s probably harder

I’d still say take world first

[odd temple]

why

[pearl mesa]

The things you learn in AP world can act as building blocks for things you’ll learn later

[proven totem]

cool

[hard yoke]

from what i've heard lin algebra might be more helpful, discrete math is a very broad term for lots of things like graph theory, algebra,

[pearl mesa]

That’s just my take on it tho, maybe other people disagree bc it’s def a personal opinion sort of thing

[proven totem]

definately

[odd temple]

One question, shoud I take Cisco network engineering technology or computer science A?

It will be in addition to AP CS principles

well idk if ill get into cs principles

[gloomy lotus]

im not sure about the first one, but csa is widely known and a step up from principles. I would take that if you're planning to go into cs

its also a great introduction to CS

since you're learning OOP and basic algos and data structures

[odd temple]

im scared ill get csa without getting cs principles

[gloomy lotus]

I did csa without csp and did fine (5 on ap exam). I did have a little bit of python programming knowledge beforehand, but most of the people in the class didn't and they learned pretty well

the cool thing about java/programming is that there's so many resources to learn online like https://runestone.academy/ns/books/published/csawesome/index.html

it is also pretty dependent on your teacher though

[inland flare]

hi so I’m not going to be able to finish these parts of pre calculus before school starts, but I’m taking AP Calc AB. do I need to know these things?? or can I still get an A without them? tysm

[pearl mesa]

I don’t think I ever saw sequences in calc

[gloomy lotus]

same

[cinder hound]

Is Ap human geography hard ?

As a freshman

[somber elbow]

is Honors geometry hard? taking as a sophomore

[valid marten]

it was really easy in my opinion. I took it as a freshman.

[west lagoon]

Personally I thought it was pretty hard cuz it’s a different mindset from algebra
U shld DEF preview everything beforehand will help a ton

[valid marten]

and sometimes how the teachers teach can also make it easy/difficult

[proven totem]

maybe its challenging but u can do it if u do ur hw

[swift sundial]

Is taking python in school worth it?

[proven totem]

nah ill just study ut online personally

[cinder hound]

Okay thanks

[proven totem]

got the review guide for unit 1 today it seems pretty challenging compared to middle school

but i can do it probably if i study at home or smth

Hey so should i take regular physics my junior year or wait until senior year to take ap and take an easier class?? I cant take it this year because it doesn’t fit my schedule but i can do regular and if i do regular will i be fine taking ap physics 2 or c next year without 1?

I plan to study mechanical engineering btw

[proven totem]

i cant understand ur question

lol

[humble elbow]

My bad ill try again 😪

So now im a junior and couldn’t fit ap physics to my schedule but i can fit regular

Idk if i should wait until next year to take ap physics 1 or simply take regular now and then on senior year go to ap physics 2 or c

hope that’s better

[austere tulip]

Yeah senior year go to ap physics C

Don’t bother with 2 cuz 2 is more electricity and magnetism stuff

[soft jacinth]

How easy is AP Human Geo

[pallid trellis]

It's supposed to be one of the easiest APs I think

[soft jacinth]

Could I self study it and get a 5?

How doable would that be

[proven totem]

doable

[soft jacinth]

Awesome

[proven totem]

debate 1 debate 2 debate 3 debate 4

ap gov ap macro etcs

[covert cypress]

[sharp wigeon]

just take the harDest courses your school has

[full tinsel]

AP Lang

While it doesn't teach debate, it could help u write opinionated writing

[pliant swift]

is discrete math helpful for cs?

[inland wedge]

Im currently stuck between taking AP Precalc over APUSH (they are the same period) this year (junior year). I want to study computer science in college so I was thinking that it would make more sense to take AP Precalc this year and take APUSH Senior year (where colleges dont see exam scores until after admissions) and I already have 4 other AP exams to worry about. So wouldn't it make more sense to swap out APUSH for AP Precalc this year?

[full tinsel]

Yea

[full tinsel]

Also should I self-study AP Physics 2 when I take AP Physics C?

I plan on majoring in Astrophysics

[full tinsel]

Good luck

[wintry sleet]

how is AP Lang :(, this not my best subject

[sharp wigeon]

lot of timeD writing anD sat like mcq questions, its mostly a skills class so its not the biggest time committment

[cinder gorge]

i am going to pass out in the beginning of next year,hardly few months left
with that in mind,I have an entrance exam in which I'll have to appear for a minimum of four subjects and the condition is that whatever subject I'm choosing for my degree should be in those 4 subjects.
I'm really keen on pursuing a bachelors in french. But I have not touched it since the last 2 years,the grammar,I mean. I had been studying French for five years before 2022. I can still understand a lot of it but sentence formation has obviously become rusty. On the contrary,the subjects I'm studying right now take up 95% of my time(physics biology chemistry and engineering graphics)
my parents have been suggesting me to pursue a degree in either genetics or microbiology and I'm fine with both of them because these two subjects also appeal to me

i could either appear for the entrance with my 4 subjects as biology chemistry english and engg. graphics
or I could take up french as the fourth subject instead of either engg graphics or chemistry
but I'm not so sure of taking a risk and appearing for an exam of a subject that I've not studied since two years. At the same time,I'm confident enough that within a few months,my french will be back to normal,as languages are a strong point for me. But I don't have the time currently. A solution to this is that we have a holiday break for a month before the entrance exam.

the forms would be out for entrance any day now and we'll have to select our subjects. I'm not sure if I can cover up my french in a month,but I really really do not wish to regret my decision in future because this is going to be a crucial step in my career life

[golden wolf]

Does taking 3 APs as a sophomore put me ahead of most ppl my age?

[left coral]

depends on your school

for us most sophomores take 1-3 aps

[golden wolf]

Do you live in the US

[proven totem]

no taking aps dorsnt put u ahead

[golden wolf]

Why would it not put you ahead

It tells colleges your challenging yourself

[dusty raft]

Does anyone know of any online programs that offer AP Classes online and that actually count for credit? They don't have to be free

[pearl mesa]

So I don’t think that’s a thing. But you can self-study the for the AP exam then take the AP test

There’s tons of resources for every AP test

Maybe like online high schools could offer it

Or online classes through your school

[dusty raft]

I'm trying to do the AP's for the college credit and the gpa boost they give. I found 1 for my state, but its $3k+ USD for 1 AP class

[proven totem]

This isnt a fucking race lol

[pearl mesa]

Yikes

Yeah you can always just take the AP test

And get the credit that way

But credit for taking the actual class, I’m not too sure about

[dusty raft]

Does anyone know any websites to self study Chemistry?

[gloomy lotus]

it literally is lol

whether you treat it as a race or not is up to you

[gloomy lotus]

if you think you can adequately manage it without it interfering too much with your other ECs, go for it

that should be the answer to 99% of the questions here asking if taking X aps is ok

[rough patio]

Has anyone here ever takin a VHS AP course ? aka online

[dusty raft]

which one is the correct one?

[zealous sigil]

depends

for what grade

11th grade, AS
12 th grade, A level
Below that IGCSE

[dusty raft]

what one would highschool be? my school only has 1 chemistry curriculum for 10th/11th and 12 graders

[zealous sigil]

well what grade are you in rn

[dusty raft]

9th

[zealous sigil]

so IGCSE

[dusty raft]

so that would prepare me enough to test out of chem?

[zealous sigil]

yeah

[fathom light]

has anyone taken the ap courses with john hopkins cty? thinking about taking one (at least) but i'd like to know more about it

[opaque nimbus]

does anyone know how i should take an arts class in my high school career? im not realy planning to major in the arts or anything, but I know you have to have one for UC schools, so I am wondering on how to fit in a class. for example, could i do an arts class virtually (through virtual va for me) or could i self study ap music theory (or would that not count as an arts credit??) i am currently a freshmen (or i will be when school starts)

[pearl mesa]

Or just take like, a basic art class

[opaque nimbus]

but idk if i can fit it in with my schedule

because I deffinetely wont be able to take it in school this yr and next yr

and I dont want to spend any classes on arts in 11th grade

[pearl mesa]

Then 12th grade

[opaque nimbus]

so I want to possibly do something virtual in school

[pearl mesa]

Not sure how you’d do art virtually

[opaque nimbus]

not arts

art*

but like any arts class

(music theatre etc.)

[pearl mesa]

Still not sure how you’d do that virtually

[opaque nimbus]

yea

[pearl mesa]

But idk every virtual class that exists

Sounds like you’ll just have to give up a class for art credit

Unless you can find an online class

[opaque nimbus]

yea i will try ig

[pearl mesa]

Tho I don’t think I would do that

[opaque nimbus]

ok

one more thing

do uc schools care about what art class u take

or just the fact that u take ana art class

[rigid forge]

as long as it fits the req!!

[opaque nimbus]

o

so as long as u fit the req uc schools look at other parts of your app

and not the arts req

[rigid forge]

yea

[tall glacier]

how do i self study for APES? how do i register to do the test

[pearl mesa]

Tons of online resources

Look up how to register, google knows better. Or call collegeboard and they’ll give you an answer

[tall glacier]

ok

is apes ez to self study tho. im in 9th

[sharp wigeon]

smeDes yt channel is pretty comprehensive anD pretty quick viDs

[tall glacier]

ok

shuld i take ap bio if im planning on doin computer engineering. I wanna go to MIT

[proven totem]

take if u like it

[peak fiber]

i would say not rlly. you can take the class for GPA boost but the ap credit won’t be useful if ur hellbent on going into comp sci. but may be handy if you see the slightest possibility of going into medical/bio field

[tall glacier]

im not interested into bio

[peak fiber]

then focus on calc and physics

ap physics if you can handle it

i’m doing normal

bc i want to have a life

acc not even physics

comp sci

[tall glacier]

im doing ap csp

[cinder gorge]

Is anyone here taking ib?

[peak fiber]

you would prolly need like mainly math and calc as well as ap comp sci principles or A

[peak fiber]

me too

it’s pretty easy so far

[tall glacier]

fr

[peak fiber]

especially bc i did honors comp sci freshman yr

[tall glacier]

what r some free edx courses related to game development

[cinder gorge]

U can do cs350

It's not game development

But very useful

[tall glacier]

ok

[cinder gorge]

It focuses on python and some languagds

Languages*

But I recomend on practicing a certain programming language while learning.

For instance, if your into unity then try focusing on c++ and c$

C#*

[tall glacier]

but where do i learn the languages?

[cinder gorge]

Here's a website that I usually use, it doesn't cover a lot of the info but good for beginners

https://www.w3schools.com/cpp/

Good for programming and if your taking ap csp

It's not advanced type but still good for starters

[rough patio]

Thoughts on this schedule: AP Language and Comp, AP Envi Sci, AP World History, AP Comp Sci P, Latin IV, and Pre Calc

For junior year

Does this schedule load look lazy/ not rigorous enough for junior year

[full tinsel]

Does ur school offer AP Pre-Calc?

[keen lava]

so i go to a really small school that doesn't really offer anything as to higher level courses and i'm taking all the advanced courses that is even offered at my grade of my school which is ap precalc and ap calc

is this something that will negatively affect apps

[full tinsel]

No

[keen lava]

theres also dual enrollment through the local community college but you can only take 2 per semester

[rough patio]

No

[proven totem]

lazy

[rough patio]

Should I stick with ap gov or switch it to comp Sci

[proven totem]

i was being sarcastic but ok

[proven totem]

intended major?

[rough patio]

…I can never tell on social media 😭

[rough patio]

Business minor in poli Sci

[full tinsel]

However, turn this into an extracurricular

[proven totem]

ap gov

[full tinsel]

Does ur school offer AP Comparitive Gov?

[rough patio]

How about if the ap gov class is virtual and wont go into my gpa

[rough patio]

No

[keen lava]

so this year im taking a health occupations class at the county career center, history 162 (i dont remember the actual number), biology 101, english 11, ap precalc, and chem

but thats about the heaviest course load i can have

[full tinsel]

Alr

U can also self study

[rough patio]

That’s why idk what to do because should I take AP GOV and have a lower gpa or AP Comp Sci P and have a higher one

[full tinsel]

I think overlapping honors classes can help self study for APs

[keen lava]

there are no honors classes

[full tinsel]

Nvm

Just

If the classes overlap with an AP u should be able to self study

[keen lava]

ok

[full tinsel]

Also

Take advantahe

And turn this into an extracurricular

[rough patio]

@proven totem

[keen lava]

so like clep tests and stuff

[full tinsel]

Idk

But

As I was sayimg

Write a letter to the school board

Or get a petition

[keen lava]

idk

i think like k-12 theres like 500ish students total

[full tinsel]

Is the virtual like a period in ur school day?

Idk

I's just say take action

And self study

[keen lava]

ok

[rough patio]

I would get a study. But the class is not factored into my gpa

[full tinsel]

O

Wat is ur GPA

[rough patio]

4.32 weighted (ill be a junior this up coming year). I want 4.45 by the end of high school

[full tinsel]

If it's like a 4 or higher and u do well in other courses u should be alr

[rough patio]

Yea that’s what I was thinking. I’m just nervous that if I don’t do as well as I want in other classes that I won’t have ap gov to back up on

[full tinsel]

Alr

Well I mean u still have a year

I would do AP Gov so that if it went down senior year, I'd still have a range of classes

[rough patio]

If I weren’t to do ap gov and ended up doing lang world envi sci and comp Sci p would that look bad..?

[cinder gorge]

@rough patio no, any ap is fine tbh

It wouldn't affect too much, it's still a ap at the end of the day

[full tinsel]

What is the AP to IB Conversion Rate?

Like how many IBs is one AP worth?

[cinder gorge]

@full tinsel Ib usually goes up to max 7 points while AP is 5

so like a 3 in AP is like a 3-4 in IB

[full tinsel]

Alr

It's just

Us Americans use the AP system

[cinder gorge]

oh

[full tinsel]

While the rest of the world uses the IB System

[cinder gorge]

when I came to US, my school is IB

[full tinsel]

Well

Some schools are

[cinder gorge]

but it depends

ye

[full tinsel]

In the 70s they tried to switch like the rest of the world

But we still use AP

Along with Liberia and Burma

[cinder gorge]

tbh, I like AP a way more than IB

[full tinsel]

Yes

[cinder gorge]

IB is way too much

[full tinsel]

A majority of IB Countries drive on the left side of the road

Like Britain

[cinder gorge]

ye

like for instance

in IB, you have to do IA (which is a project that counts 20-40% of your IB score), followed by 2-3 tests

for my IB comp sci SL, I had to do the IA with 2 paper tests instead of taking a test if it was AP

[full tinsel]

Yes

Anyways

Imma self study an IB

[cinder gorge]

yeah... dont....

its not like AP at all....

there are good resources for IB

but the project might be confusing for non IB students since its usually during its school

[full tinsel]

Jk

I will stick to the american way

[cinder gorge]

ok

[bitter gyro]

Hey so I got a friend who wants to pursue a career in finance, he is interested in taking AP Chem, but currently with the way our school periods align, he’d would have to drop his choir class in order to do so, he’s not sure Chem would benefit him in terms of finance but at the same time neither would choir, thanks

[pearl mesa]

Neither would, so best thing to do is just decide what class he/she would like more. Also taking into account a good grade in AP chem could help raise gpa

[tidal stag]

Any Canadians online?

[queen thistle]

u guys think ap chem and ap psychics in the same year is a good idea or no?

how is the workload looking, im also taking a few other aps so idk

[pliant swift]

Is ap gov hard?

Should I take Calc BC if I hate math

[normal ember]

Well here's a question

Do you hate math

Or do you hate learning math

[agile mist]

Both, I only really like geometry

[full tinsel]

It's ok if u have background info on them

Chemistry is Physics applied on the molecular level

So u should be fine

[tall glacier]

what do u plan on majoring in

[normal ember]

Then unless your major calls for it, it's not necessary imo, but it's useful to have and makes you look good

I need to talk to my guidance counselor about switching AP Precalc for AP Calc (I took precalc this summer) and switching AICE Marine for Chemistry, is this a good sophomore schedule in your opinion? (I want to major in Physics and/or Computer Science)

Additionally my school has no physics teacher at the moment.

[full tinsel]

Not bad

[drifting hearth]

Quite good for a sophomore

Don't forget your ecs cuz of the workload tho

[normal ember]

Yeah I won't

I have the same English teacher, engineering teacher, and math teacher as last year and my comp sci teacher is right next to my engineering teacher and was practically another one of my teachers last year anyway

And the great thing is that only my math teacher out of those really gives a lot of homework

[cinder gorge]

Hello everyone i am Biology major i want to take sociology as i am planning on appearing for the MCAT which sociology course would you suggest the first one is 1] Understanding society: principle and processes
2] sociology of health and wellness

[austere tulip]

Looks good

It’s cool that you’re doing calc soph year!

[rigid forge]

hi

[normal ember]

Yeah it is, I think I'm gonna be the only sophomore there lol

[tidal stag]

Under some of my hs courses that I can choose it says "locally developed" what is that?

[rigid forge]

it's courses that are made specifically for a school or region if no other classes meet the needs of thst subject

usually they're mandatory

[tidal stag]

ah okay

my school has like 3 APs, no Ib courses, and no honors, so I thought that was maybe something similar to honors. Too bad. Thanks for your time!

[rigid forge]

LITERALLY SAME

[sharp plaza]

Is AP Spanish worth it

[dawn flume]

Guys i need ur suggestion, I’m taking 5 aps next yr(apes, apchem, aplang, calc ab, apush) my A day classes consist of 1. apes 2. study hall 3. apchem 4. physics. I feel like I should replace either chem or apes with ap csp but idk which one. do you guys have any suggestions for me?

[pearl mesa]

What do you want to study in college

[dawn flume]

either comp sci or data science

[pearl mesa]

Keep the class you think you’ll enjoy more

[dawn flume]

i think i would enjoy apes more but i also wanted to keep some rigor

which chem offers lol

[pearl mesa]

Huh?

[dawn flume]

like if i replaced ap csp with chem, my schedule would be a bit more chill because i have csp and apes

if i replaced csp with apes, it would still be a little chill but ap chem would add the rigor to my schedule

[pearl mesa]

That’s correct

Take both into account, work load and how much you’ll enjoy it. Don’t take a class you think you won’t like

[dawn flume]

have you taken any one of those classesv

?

[pearl mesa]

I’ve taken AP csp

And honors chem

AP chem wasn’t offered at the time

[dawn flume]

oh

nice

[indigo geode]

Do you think doing choir all 4 years has any more weight acceptance wise than doing choir 3 years and taking an ap course instead for one year

[pearl mesa]

I don’t think it’s going to matter much except for the gpa boost you might get from an AP class

But really, just take the class you like more

[sharp plaza]

Is AP lang worth it

[cinder gorge]

Is AP Comp Sci worth it

[near wind]

These are the courses that I have this year. FLEX means lunchtime and I have a different AP class for each day. Also, I have different classes for each semester (obviously). Let me know how I can make all of this insanity more bearable for me since I've never taken an AP class before:

[cinder gorge]

How are you gonna be okay

Is that 10 AP's

In a single year

Holy

[near wind]

6, but yeah idk

[cinder gorge]

6?

Oh

Still

I only have 4☠️

[left coral]

between AP Bio, AP Chem, and APES, which science should i take junior year? gonna be taking one of these with physics, and the plan is to get either a comp sci/ cybersecurity degree

[lone lion]

@left coral compsci or cybersecurity doesnt need any of those

🤨

at this point im assuming u want a weighted gpa boost or idek

[whole yarrow]

APES is easiest

Bio is hardest (in my opinion)

i thought bio was more fun tho

[proven totem]

did u take chem?

[whole yarrow]

yes

[proven totem]

when?

[whole yarrow]

11th

[proven totem]

juniro year or soph

o

[whole yarrow]

bio soph

[proven totem]

and bio 10th grade i assume?

[whole yarrow]

yes

[proven totem]

k might do that

doing bio honors rn

:D

[left coral]

yea pretty much

[whole yarrow]

nothing wrong witht htat tho

[left coral]

ik I don't need any of them but I have an opportunity so might as well

[lone lion]

honestly its useless

can u take smth more related to ur major?

compsci? cyber security?

[left coral]

i already have and will be

thats why im asking

i was just wondering if any one of those maybe relates to the major more than others, even though none of them really do

[lone lion]

well u can take smth ur interested in

r u interested in any

[left coral]

yeah im thinking about APES or bio

[lone lion]

bio works

[left coral]

alr thank you

[proven totem]

ok

[lone lion]

bio is harder tho

so watch workload

[unique atlas]

So I love my current schedule but my counselor just called me in to talk about switching out one of my classes for ap stats since I only have one semester this year, making it a grand total of 3.5 years of math instead of 4. The most selective of the universities im applying to have a requirement for 3.5 and a recommendation of 4 but I have a really good gpa and extracurriculars and good sat score so I feel like it would cover for that in a way? I really don’t want to change my schedule to put in an ap class I don’t want to take simply for this, should I actually try and see what I can move or just take the schedule I have already and maybe ta for my math teacher and whatnot? (I know ta-ing doesn’t cover that semester but it might still look good, especially cuz I’m getting a letter from the teacher)

Sorry that it’s long lol

[pearl mesa]

Make sure you’re completing your HS requirements, otherwise I would you are fine with your current schedule

Lots of HS require 4 years of math

[austere tulip]

What exactly is that one semester of math

[placid igloo]

So my school offers IB physics SL, IB Chem SL, and IB Bio HL, I am already doing HL lang/lit and HL Analysis. Should I take Bio or chem and phys?

[placid igloo]

i.e, what factors are the most important to consider when choosing between the classes?

[cinder gorge]

Hello everyone i am Biology major i want to take sociology as i am planning on appearing for the MCAT which sociology course would you suggest the first one is 1] Understanding society: principle and processes
2] sociology of health and wellness

[remote elbow]

Personally, I'd recommend you 'Sociology of Health and Wellness' ☺

[unique atlas]

My school requires 3 so I’m good on that front, it’s just universities and whatnot since I might be going into chem

[unique atlas]

That’s another issue that’s being figured out by my counselor but it’s gonna be something past calc bc, I don’t know if that’s anything

[remote elbow]

Factors to consider:
1.) Which subjects would help me prepare for my career in the future?

2.) Consider the difficulty and expected amount of workload of each subject and see which one you can manage.

3.) What type of learning do you prefer?

[pearl mesa]

And what class you would enjoy^

[placid igloo]

Ok, thx

[austere tulip]

Oh ok if it’s past calc then do that instead of stats

[sinful parcel]

My school only offers 3 APs, Im trying to go into public policy, what do you guys think of my classes: AP Lang, APUSH, AP Chem, HPC, Hphysics, Chinese

[rough patio]

Does taking AP Envi Sci and AP Comp Sci in the same year look bad ? Will taking AP Gov over AP Comp Sci look significantly better ?

[naive root]

it does not matter because it matters which ap classes you are interested in. either option is fine.

[rough patio]

I’m interested in gov more then comp Sci but my school does not offer gov so I would have to do it virtually, and idk if I want to make a commitment to that. There is an intro to law class at my school so I was thinking of doing AP Comp Sci and intro to law.

[naive root]

then that would be better for you, since this is also a gov related class. intro to law and comp sci is fine as well.

[rough patio]

My Junior year schedule will prob be AP Lang, AP World, AP Envi Sci, AP Comp Sci P, Latin, Pre Calc, and Intro to Law. Is this the rigor colleges are looking for ? I’m aiming for schools like Northeastern, and BU

[naive root]

okay so junior year - you do not want to overload yourself and be able to excel in classes. the classes you chose seem more manageable. 2-4 AP classes is enough for junior year. and yes, your course load is rigorous. remember that colleges want to see you excel in the classes you chose. good luck!

[tall nacelle]

try a least one ap and some honors

i might be able to take AP us history and ap physics in my 2nd semester even though im a sophomore (10th grade). should i or do you guys from experience think its too hard?

if i do my schedule for semester 2 will look like this

English 2 honors/ AP Seminar
APUSH
AP Physics
AP Stats

[shut rivet]

Its a very rigorous schedule. I would ask some upperclassmen about AP physics and APUSH. AP seminar will take up a lot of your time , but AP stats shouldn’t be too hard. You still need to have time for extracurricular and you could take those classes in junior year anyway

[shut rivet]

great schedule for sophomore year. If you wanted you could take AP precalc or AP lang if your school offers those

[trim cipher]

I don’t think they do but I was thinking to take ap lang through college as a duel enrollment next year. And ap pre calc I haven’t heard anything about it from school but I’ll reach out to them

I’m already the president of the debate club and secretary general of Model UN.

[elder quartz]

You should take the hardest level english and history classes that you can

doesn't need to be college

but do ap's for those

but if you want you can also take rigorous math and science classes

[covert cypress]

It’s a must I should take math and science, but do I really need hard level of maths?

I’m not bright when it comes to math but I have the highest grades.

[dawn flume]

I would say at least before u graduate high school, complete maybe calculus or calc ab

[proven totem]

just complete caculas 4 before graduating cuz y not

[dawn flume]

yeah bro just casually do calc 4 in senior on top of all the aps and college aps

doable👍

calc 4 aint a thing btw

ok

i thought we were jus being sarcastic but ok

but yeah like i said ab or regular calc before graduation

[queen thistle]

oh ok cause ik that those are the hardest aps so i didn't know if it was a good idea to take it in the same year

[cinder gorge]

is there any point at all taking calc AB before BC

because I feel confident taking BC right on but i wonder if taking AB makes it so that I can get an extra ap class

imo no

I am going to start my igcse syllabus soon and my school has already made us pick our subjects however I am a bit worried since I picked computer science. My parents encouraged me to pick it since it will be beneficial for me in the future and to that I don’t disagree. I am not really interested in computer science or planing to continue to study it in the future, my parents just think it’s good to have some basic knowledge on the subject. I am not confident in my computer science ability since our lessons in computer science during middle school was really basic and inconsistent. I am willing to try to learn but I am worried that I well regret it as my teacher did say that computer science is a subject that if you don’t understand the basics you will just be stuck there. Does anyone have some tips on what I should do or whether I should just change it as I will be starting the syllabus in like a week since I do not want to change my subject halfway.

[gritty plaza]

people keep telling me to take the "hardest possible courses" at my hs. But this involves taking courses irrelevent to my intended major of mathematics, ie. Spanish 4h, amlit honors, etc. Additionally, i plan to spend 7 hours a day to make MOP(math olympiad summer program) is it worth it to take the hardest possible courses offered, or to rather follow my passion?

[pearl mesa]

Hardest courses possible looks different for everyone. It’s good to get a variety of different classes but at the same time it’s good to focus on a little on your major

7 hours a day is a lot tho

[proven totem]

7 hours sounds kinda low

Maybe 10-12 will be better

Also follow your passion

[gritty plaza]

Currently im taking APUSH AP Stats APPC MECH + E&M, amlit, and Stanford Linear alg/mvc

Is AP HUG ez?

[gloomy lotus]

from my friends that have taken it they say it's one of the easier AP classes. Just a lot of vocab and models to study. Just make sure to pay attention, take good notes, and you'll do fine

https://www.reddit.com/r/APStudents/comments/c7ib44/how_hard_is_ap_human_geography/

[full tinsel]

Alr I'll self study it

[gloomy lotus]

cool, but I wouldn't recommend self-studying it unless it pertains to your major for these reasons:

1 - The main purpose of taking an AP class during school is for the GPA boost and exam college credit. If you're self-studying the class, you get no GPA boost, so that's out of the picture. All you have left is college credit. I see a lot of people sel-study classes that are just irrelevant to their major. So in the end, you've spent tens of hours studying for an exam which (might) not even give you credit.

2 - AOs aren't going to be impressed if you spent your free time studying for an AP class. They would rather see you do things like volunteering, research, competitions, businesses, clubs, etc. All they takeaway from you self-studying an AP class is that you've wasted a lot of time (assuming the AP class is not related to your major)

A good comment from someone on reddit:

If one has a true intellectual curiosity that cannot be fulfilled by the HS curriculum, dual enrollment courses are a better option. Or proposing an independent study under the supervision of a teacher. aOs care more about course performance over 30-36 weeks than the scores from a 3 hour exam.

Summary: Only self-study if you're genuinely interested in the content/material and plan to use the credit from the AP class (assuming you pass) for college. You can also do it if your school doesn't offer much

[full tinsel]

Reddit?

I would've been fine with just the summary

Fine I'll just self study AP Physics 2
