course-selection

[deft maple]

English 1 is freshman course, but then again I’m basing my answer on South Carolina standards

[cinder gorge]

what abt discord

[toxic parcel]

nah bruv

ppl can help

but like qualification cant be proved on discord

[cinder gorge]

Its the easiest to get help from discord tho

[cinder gorge]

yes

[deft maple]

40% good and 60% bad

[cinder gorge]

u can talk with them

and u will know if they’re qualified

[toxic parcel]

sure but can you trust them on every fact they say

[cinder gorge]

holy shit

[deft maple]

Does your school have English 3 or 4

[cinder gorge]

idk

[toxic parcel]

maybe they are just copy pasting facts from google

[cinder gorge]

my biology teacher still hasnt updated grades

[toxic parcel]

thats why linkedin is the best

[deft maple]

You don’t know any juniors or seniors?

[toxic parcel]

though you need to have only formal chats their

[cinder gorge]

unfortunately no

[cinder gorge]

my bio teacher is very chill

i have over 100💀

[toxic parcel]

then talk to them

[cinder gorge]

In the class

[cinder gorge]

smae

[cinder gorge]

Why do u have iep

[deft maple]

You should email you guidance counselor and ask them if English 1 is the standard for freshman

[cinder gorge]

ok

[cinder gorge]

idk

[cinder gorge]

bro wdym

There has to be a reason right?

I kept using phone in class

[low igloo]

HUH

[cinder gorge]

if i do that will i also get a iep

[low igloo]

aren't ieps for disabled children

[cinder gorge]

yeah

[cinder gorge]

do u have extra time for tests

[deft maple]

Ya’ll, you don’t want to be put in special-ed or iep. These classes are for people with learning disabilities such as autism, Down syndrome, dyslexia, etc

[cinder gorge]

No

I dont have any diagnosed disabilities

But I do have ocd

[cinder gorge]

nah i want special accommodations too

more time = better

[deft maple]

Do you need it?

[cinder gorge]

The special accomadations dont help me at all

They amke it harder actually

[deft maple]

Special education is only necessary if you actually need it

[cinder gorge]

I get forced to sit in front of class every period

[cinder gorge]

also i can claim to be a iep student and how hard it is and how I overcame it on college app😎

[deft maple]

Isn’t ocd differ for everyone?

[cinder gorge]

bruh the smartest kid in our school has it

[deft maple]

Yeah if it is true?

[cinder gorge]

No

Wdym

[deft maple]

Like some ocd disorders are worse for some people

[cinder gorge]

Mine is mild but still takes up 1 hour of my day

[deft maple]

Ok but I’m general if you get put in special Ed, you may get a class that is below your grade level’s standard

[cinder gorge]

Kinda afraid to do homework since when i go to the homework app i gotta do like 5 rituals to make sure i dont go to hell after i die

[deft maple]

Does it significantly hurt your education in your opinion?

[cinder gorge]

Yeah

[cinder gorge]

It doesn’t affect classes

My main problem is i keep missing assignments

doesnt hurt it too much

That person skipped like 2-3 grades with a iep

nowadays i basically just tell myself i only have to do these 4 rituals at beginning of day and im good for rest of the day

[deft maple]

Good for you

[cinder gorge]

yes

[deft maple]

Hope you get better soon

[cinder gorge]

yes

i cant get rid of it but i can make it better

[cinder gorge]

Isn’t rituals normal

At least for younger children

[deft maple]

I believe you are talking about gifted and talented which does qualify you as special Ed. However when most people are talking about special education, they are talking classes that are grade levels behind

[cinder gorge]

no they technically get special accomadations

Like extra time

They just never use it

[deft maple]

In my schools special education are usually separate classes, so maybe my school is just different

@cinder gorge when you write essays do you keep writing them repeatedly as part of your rituals?

[cinder gorge]

Na

I write Ts and Is with my left hand only

[deft maple]

Are you ambidextrous?

[cinder gorge]

No

I mean type

But the ends of all my letters must face to the right

When i write

[thick merlin]

What AP courses should I take to become a professional pole dancer

[deft maple]

Oh

[deft maple]

AP macro and micro economics

@thick merlin you should also take AP lang/lit. You would be such a sophisticated dancer

A man with class

[thick merlin]

i was actually thinking about taking lang lit too

do you think i should take calc ab too

because you dont know when you need to use calculus whilist hanging on the pole

[deft maple]

I think AP pre cal is good enough but with ab you will surely become a master at your craft

[obtuse imp]

is ap literature hard

i mean ive heard people failing a lot

[wet rune]

yeah AP lit is hard

[obtuse imp]

like?

[wet rune]

dont take it unless you get really good grades in enlish or youre willing to put the effort in

i havent taken it, but its a lot of reading and essay writing

[obtuse imp]

what country

you in

[wet rune]

us

[thick merlin]

Wow you know a lot

Maybe we could collaborate in the future

[obtuse imp]

which city

could anybody give me a screenshot of harvards what we look for page

it shows acces denied

[fervent harbor]

@wise forge do you plan to write LSAT

[odd kiln]

Hey, my math teacher said to me and some other students that since we are at the top of the class we can do AP stats next year. Should I do it?

[median osprey]

Yeah it’s good

[wise forge]

yes

[fervent harbor]

in what year?

[wise forge]

while from now, prob 2026-2027

[fervent harbor]

do you know anyone who might be writing it in 2025?

[wise forge]

nope

[low igloo]

ap physics 1 2 and C. You'll learn how to implement newtons laws of motion into your dances

@thick merlin

ap physics c may be the most useful but yeah

[cinder gorge]

unfortunately ur going to have to learn rotation in ap physics c

[low igloo]

wait what exactly is pole dancing?

[cinder gorge]

idek

[low igloo]

i just assumed its like the rings in men gymnastics but on a pole

[oak plaza]

Y’all I think they mean like pole dancing at like a club

[foggy jolt]

I am planning my schedule for next year (senior year) and I am deciding between ap physics 1 or ap statistics, which one do giys recommend if I want to major in computer science w/ a specialization in bioinformatics?

which will be more useful?

I want to take both but don't have space

[thick merlin]

i see...

[thick merlin]

🤫

[robust junco]

Don't waste that opportunity ♡ go for it! Take at least one or two.

[odd kiln]

Ok

[pliant swift]

Is ap phy 1 too hard?

[swift sundial]

Should I take Ap cs principles instead of python 1?

idk anything about coding

[winged lagoon]

Guyss next year hs consulers are coming to my school to get my classes that i want to do for hs. What classes should I pick/ which ones are hardest and which ones are inbetween. Please help!! ❤️ I want to study something to do with Tech/computers or graphic design.

[cinder gorge]

Pls help me

[worthy flare]

dancing on a pole 🤓🤓👆🏽👆🏽👆🏽

[loud vortex]

Quick question. Is there a recommended level of education I should have in math before I start getting my associates in it?

[lavish basalt]

I'm currently in Grade 10 in Canada and trying to come up with a career plan. I stumbled upon this place hoping to find some answers. My interest is in technology or just computers in general. I love fitness or any kind of sports. I enjoy making content and been taking business. So far, after doing some research, I think something like software engineering, computer science, and entrepreneurship/business at UOFT which would be a good fit. I know these are big goals and big ideas, but as they say, 'Go big or go home.' Please reply so I can see them
So far I have taken computer technology and a art course for last year and business, digital technology which is just computer coding
pls some one help and if you have any recommendation or just any resources please again reply they would mean a LOT to me if you need more detail just feel free to ask

[mortal roost]

Is this sheule good

English 1 Honors
Algebra 1 honors
Biology Honos

Yeah

[mortal roost]

ithis is just waht the =y told me to put this will change for sure maybe

[oak plaza]

Bro finally you have a normal schedule

[summer spire]

ok

[mortal roost]

this is going to change lol

[oak plaza]

Change to what

[mortal roost]

i testing out of alegrba 1

maybe biology

aslo

[mortal roost]

this has like a low percentange keep itself

[lavish basalt]

Has anyone got any recommendations for me?

[mortal roost]

do apcsp and apcsa

[mortal roost]

that might help

[lavish basalt]

let me look into that

[oak plaza]

That’s not that bad

I did that

[mortal roost]

maybe biology

and stuff

[oak plaza]

You saying you were gonna take 14 ap classes in a year is absurd

[mortal roost]

either my school is like relly afraid of letting students take ap or waht

they dont even let 9th grades do duall ellmoent i think

[lavish basalt]

you mind telling me a little about them?

[mortal roost]

ap csp is like computer princles and apcsa you can ask someone else

[cinder gorge]

What year

WTF

HOW YOU 9TH GRADE AND TAKING THOSE CLASSES

[mortal roost]

?

[cinder gorge]

How old are you

what year

[mortal roost]

13

8th

[cinder gorge]

WTF

IM GONNA KILL MYSELF

ACTUALLY

[ashen nymph]

lmfao what

[hybrid elk]

lmfao

[ashen nymph]

you need to calm down

[mortal roost]

@cinder gorge chill

[ashen nymph]

8th grade is prob part of hs in his schl

[cinder gorge]

im in 9th grade and taking regular courses cause i missed deadline

to choose 9th grade classes in 8th

my entire future got messed up

[ashen nymph]

its not the end of the world, you still got 3 more years

plus id say that by far, sophmore and junior year are way more important

[cinder gorge]

No

This determines my entire track for rest of the year

[mortal roost]

are my elevtis okay for 10th

[cinder gorge]

Ill be taking regular courses every year

[mortal roost]

ap spaish ap semmriar ap psych and ap art

is that good

for elevtics

fior 10th

[ashen nymph]

if you're interested in them then yeah they sound cool

[mortal roost]

can you checnk my 11th grade elctives out

[ashen nymph]

sure

[mortal roost]

ap euro
ap rescarch
apcsa and idk what else

[ashen nymph]

well I mean you could try to take a course online or do more extracurriculars to make your resume better

[mortal roost]

how many ap`s do you need for ivy leauge schhols

@ashen nymph

[ashen nymph]

you don't need a certain amount

as long as your GPA is good, the amount of AP's you take doesn't matter (other than college credits ofc)

[cinder gorge]

Nah

Its over for me

[ashen nymph]

lmao dont be so pessimistic

[mortal roost]

then should i do dc

[cinder gorge]

Whats standard progression for every year in each type of class in america

[mortal roost]

becuase i am given the collage cridt as long as i pass the class @ashen nymph

[ashen nymph]

wdym by dc?

[ashen nymph]

well not for AP classes

oh im dumb

lmfao

mb

[mortal roost]

like i can do like a clooage class and if i pass then i get the cridt

credit

so should i do dc

becuase its free

rather than ap

[ashen nymph]

you have free dual credit???

[mortal roost]

yes

its free

[ashen nymph]

but if you believe that you can be an individual person and manage all your assignments without much guidance then yes ofc

[mortal roost]

if i do cs

dc

[ashen nymph]

yeah def take it

[mortal roost]

should i do ap ib or dc

i dont know

[ashen nymph]

my opinion is dc but its up to you

[mortal roost]

is ib good for collage

because it= am stuck betwen ap and dc

[ashen nymph]

both is good, i'd say just pick if you like to study for a final exam or not

[mortal roost]

like i want to do c=harder classes but then free colage crdit and hg=igh gpa is good also

so like

becuase dc is 5.5 gpa and ap is 6.0

and dc i get free colalge credit

[ashen nymph]

well since this is only for your cs class

i recommend you take IB to make your life a bit easier with your other AP classes, howveer however if you really want to take a harder class for whatever reason then yes take AP course

[mortal roost]

@ashen nymph shold i do dc since its good gpa and free collage cridt in 11th and 12th

but i plan to do calsses at collage so like

[ashen nymph]

well if you want the GPA and are gonna take classes in college regardless then take AP

[mortal roost]

okay

but should i do a few dc to get some free collage creadit

q

[pliant swift]

Is Ap phy 1 hard ? I wanna take it in Junior year

[mortal roost]

idk

[ashen nymph]

AP physics 1 is decently dificult, so if you are going to take the class, just don't slack off during lessons lol

[pliant swift]

Do you have any tips for ap phy?

[opaque sequoia]

APs i recommend freshman to take:

AP LANG
AP PSYCH
AP CSP

if you want to save the easy APs for senior year take AP WORLD or APES

only if you’re not a stem focused student

[opaque sequoia]

disagree, if you’re trying to get into a T20 school, course rigor (amount of APs) matter

[opaque sequoia]

great

[opaque sequoia]

keep taking the highest level of course available in pre-requisite subjects. i think you’re on the right track so far!

[cinder gorge]

IB is harder

What are you talking about?

[opaque sequoia]

AP comp sci p (simple) // comp sci a (hard) // AP Art and design (medium) // AP physics (extreme hard) // AP calculus (hard)

do not let the difficulty discourage you. if you know you have good work ethic, aren’t afraid to ask for help and good study methods then you’ll be fine

[ashen nymph]

I don’t have IB so I was just going off of what he said ngl

I don’t know about it that much

[ashen nymph]

Definitely try and make sure you’re comfortable with math concepts lots of which come from algebra and geometry

[loud vortex]

I’m about to turn 15, and want to do a dual enrollment at my local community college.
I want to work in the STEM field, specifically as an astronaut (corny I know). I’m interested in Physics, Math, and Engineering. I’m currently stuck between an associates in physics and math. But I’m concerned I lack a base in both areas to succeed in them. Formally I know up to Geometry, but on my own I know a bit of Algebra 2. I have a while to learn more, but I was curious what you guys thought.

[ashen nymph]

I think that’s a great way to start a career in that field (I’m also interested in the same field, wanting to become an astrophysicist) I do think that it would be very beneficial for you to join engineering clubs and competitions as they have a very far reach into that field as well as it being appealing to colleges if you win competitions from it.

I also do know that NASA starts internships from 10th-11th grade so you could look into that as well

[loud vortex]

Would SkillsUSA qualify as an engineering club/competition? It’s an organization that has competitions and stuff like that for trade skills.

[ashen nymph]

Yeah, that was one of the ones I was thinking of mentioning

[cinder gorge]

It is harder than AP

So taking IB would make ur life harder not easier

[ashen nymph]

I see

Thanks for clarifying tho

[inland flare]

Hey everyone I want to major in biology (like biotech or direct med) and I have like five spots for AP Classes. I am planning to take as a junior: AP Lang, AP Psych, and AP Bio but I don’t know what else to take so if you have any recommendations I would really appreciate it tysm

[cinder gorge]

Chem, calc

[inland flare]

I can’t take chem in the same year cause bio is two periods 😭😭

but yes calc tysm

[tall oar]

Bio math VS CS math in India

I want to get into IIT madras and do rocket science/mechanical engineering

I don't have interest in Bio but I am good at it

I have interest in coding and I am good at it

but not a fan of other aspects of CS

[rigid thorn]

is ipt good in AUS

NSW

[gusty tinsel]

Hi people, do you think I should take the calc AB exam or the BC exam? Context: Currently taking Calc AB, maintaining an A-, currently a sophomore in high school

[pearl mesa]

Well of you’re only taking AB, I would only take the AB exam

There are mixed thoughts about self studying

I personally would say not to

A lot of the BC content required a good understanding of AB

[cinder gorge]

Im not even taking aps in my freshmen classes

Cause they were literally randomly selected for me

so i have default classes

my chances for t30 got ruined

[cinder gorge]

yo poni help me

is it even possible to fix this

[gloomy lotus]

Your chances for a T30 are not ruined from getting a bad selection of AP classes

Ap physics 1 - its algebra based

[cinder gorge]

What course should I take to become a better forensic scientist or a federal agent (FBI, ATF, etc.)

[slate gazelle]

Hi guys I am new to this server

I have had this question since forever

I am kinda stuck btwn the 3 career that most interests me

Aeronautics, Business, and Technology

Any ideas on what path I should go and the classes I should take during high school

btw i am a freshman

[lyric flame]

Well my math teacher is going to give the AP comp sci p a rec

reccomed

[lavish basalt]

thank you

[winged lagoon]

`Alr thank u for all of the amazing options

[bright dew]

Can you add Geography pls?

[cinder gorge]

Nah

They are ruined

My life benefits nobody

[pearl mesa]

They aren’t

If your classes are chosen for you

That’s out of your control

And you can mention that in your application?

[cinder gorge]

Ok

Thanks

[full tinsel]

Why music theory?

[mortal roost]

free ap

what other ap can i do

ap econmics

[cinder gorge]

No its not

[mortal roost]

does ap mirco

[cinder gorge]

Its hard if you know nothing about music

[mortal roost]

then what free ap could i do

@cinder gorge should i do the other ap phyics c

then

[cinder gorge]

do both calc ab and bc

Its free 2 APs

[mortal roost]

bruh not doing calc ab

waste of time

[cinder gorge]

you have 2 APs

Its free

[mortal roost]

but dont collages count it as 1

[cinder gorge]

No

[mortal roost]

you sure

[cinder gorge]

You have to do them in separate years

So its 2

[cinder gorge]

Yes

BC doesn’t count as 2

But AB and BC counts as 2

[mortal roost]

@cinder gorge shoudl i test out of ap pre calculus in the summer of 9th

[cinder gorge]

Yes

[mortal roost]

k becuase then i can do ap calc bc and ao stast in 10th then ap calc ab and multi variable calc

mulit variable is new

is that good

[cinder gorge]

In college?

Does your school have it?

[mortal roost]

my school is new to mulit variable calc

[cinder gorge]

If it doesn’t you can take in a local college

[mortal roost]

whats after calc

becuase i can do pre calc in a collage

[cinder gorge]

Differential equations

Linear algebra

[mortal roost]

is calc 3 even needed

becuase i can do differnal eautions ans linear algebra in 12th

[cinder gorge]

even normal calc is optional

[mortal roost]

if calc 3 isnt needed

[mortal roost]

they count as free ap`s so yes

but calc 3 isnt an ap so like

no

1 sec
alegrba 1 and geoemrty (testing out0
Algebra 2 in ninth ap pre calc over the summer at a collage if i can)
Ap calc bc and ap stats in 10th
Ap calc ab and mulit varibale calc
Differntal eqautions and linear algebra in 12th

is this good

do i have to do chem can i not do ap hpyics 1 in 10th

@cinder gorge grass that good

@pearl mesa that good

[gilded bramble]

would you all recommend taking ap psych as a sophomore with no prior psych experience (minus a view on-your-own researches)?

[mortal roost]

yes

[mortal roost]

i am doing that asw ell

[lyric flame]

Hey

My math teacher is going to give me a recommendation to an csp

[mortal roost]

do apcsp

[lyric flame]

Ap

[mortal roost]

then

[lyric flame]

I mean that

[mortal roost]

@lyric flame is this good alegrba 1 and geoemrty (testing out0
Algebra 2 in ninth ap pre calc over the summer at a collage if i can)
Ap calc bc and ap stats in 10th
Ap calc ab and mulit varibale calc
Differntal eqautions and linear algebra in 12th
is this good

[mortal roost]

i also doing apcsp in ninth

[lyric flame]

I have to talk to my counselor

[pearl mesa]

Take calc BC in 10th and AB in 11th?

[mortal roost]

yes

[pearl mesa]

Why

[mortal roost]

point being its free ap

like if i good in bc

[pearl mesa]

You mean you’d be taking the exam?

Or the class?

[mortal roost]

then ab is easy

[mortal roost]

the class for gpa

[pearl mesa]

Yeah I don’t recommend that

[mortal roost]

other wise no point

[mortal roost]

but is it good

[pearl mesa]

No

It’s going to look like you’re digressing

[lyric flame]

No my school it’s algebra then geometry then algebra 2

[pearl mesa]

Or slacking

[lyric flame]

Then so on

[mortal roost]

i testing out of alegbra 1

[pearl mesa]

You’re taking a course below one you’ve already taken

[mortal roost]

adn then i have to do gomerty in the same eyar

so i be doing algebra 2 in ninth

ap re calc at a collage

[lyric flame]

I am doing mcjrotc

[mortal roost]

then calc in 10th

calc bc in 10th calc ab in11th

free ap

[pearl mesa]

Don’t do that

[mortal roost]

why'

it is free ap

otherwise i do that at a collage

[pearl mesa]

But it doesn’t look good

If you take a class

Below a class you’ve already taken

It looks like you’re digressing

[mortal roost]

the should i flip it

so i do calc ab in 10th then calc bc in11th

[pearl mesa]

Yes

Or if you want to go straight to bc

Just don’t take ab

[mortal roost]

becuase i be studying only calc bc

in a way

[mortal roost]

i need the gpa

[pearl mesa]

There are other AP’s

[mortal roost]

like hwat

i doing like 22-26 ap`s

like that good right

for an ivy leauge

pls maybe more at a collage

[pearl mesa]

That’s a lot of AP’s that you probably don’t need to do

[mortal roost]

why

?

[pearl mesa]

Bc you’re just taking AP classes to take AP classes

You just want the high GPA

[cinder gorge]

try to take under 20

20 max

why even

Like

[pearl mesa]

Like I think there’s a fine line between taking AP’s to be competitive and rigorous and just taking as many as you possibly can to make yourself seem better

I promise you taking 20 versus 26 AP classes is not gonna be the reason you get rejected or accepted

[obtuse imp]

Should i major in political science

Or history

[mortal roost]

your choice

[obtuse imp]

has better or

[mortal roost]

depends on where you want to go

i want to go to gthe first one or standford

[obtuse imp]

Theres always harvard

But i haven’t chosen yet between History or political science

[opaque sequoia]

lol Harvard is better in terms of popularity

Yale is better in terms of the community

Harvard is half rich kids and half low income kids who actually worked hard and deserved to get accepted

[mortal roost]

i doing harvard yale or standford

[mortal roost]

what about medium

[opaque sequoia]

imo Stanford is better than Harvard and Yale

[mortal roost]

i stilll havent chosen

even harvard or standford

[obtuse imp]

I'm thinking bout' which major and which uni

[opaque sequoia]

are you applying to colleges right now? or have you already been accepted?

[mortal roost]

i want to go

[opaque sequoia]

lol do not major in history

[mortal roost]

i am in 8th

[mortal roost]

why

though it might be boring

ngl

[opaque sequoia]

oh, that’s great. what are your interests?

[mortal roost]

math sicence hisotry

like stem

maybe

[opaque sequoia]

i have never seen a history major come out of uni with a good paying job

[opaque sequoia]

if you like stem aim for Stanford

[mortal roost]

okay

[mortal roost]

i like stem but i dont think i doing thst for my carer path

@opaque sequoia can you check my high school shedule out

[opaque sequoia]

okay, i will scroll up

[mortal roost]

its up

[mortal roost]

here

go down

[opaque sequoia]

this is a great schedule

are you sure you can handle that much? if so, then you will have a great chance at top schools

[mortal roost]

i mean maybe

idk

[opaque sequoia]

you need to make sure you have time for good extracurriculars… all those APs might not let you have a life outside of high school lol

[mortal roost]

i have 2 good extraxcurriiles

1

and i might do some interships

like i have 1 extercuulirs right now

need to get like 2 or 3 more

then do some interships

idk how its going to go

@opaque sequoia if i fail i fail

[opaque sequoia]

if you’re school offers 22 aps and you take 22 aps BUT have no extracurriculars then you’re probably going to be rejected from top colleges

example 2/ if your school offers 22 aps and you’ve only taken 7 BUT these 7 align with your career interests AND you have great ec’s then you will have a good chance at a top college

[opaque sequoia]

i don’t think you will fail

[mortal roost]

like i willl have 304 etrax cullires

like 3-4

[opaque sequoia]

you are only in 8th grade and you’re thinking about ivy leagues, you will be successful when you’re older

[mortal roost]

3-4

extaxcurrlies

and some interships

some projects

and more

[opaque sequoia]

that’s seriously good for an 8th grader

[opaque sequoia]

you can explain this in additional information!

[mortal roost]

yo thx

[cinder gorge]

Yes

which "tougher" courses should i drop just so i literally dont die from work

[cinder gorge]

aint now way

[dim stump]

planning to pursue neuroscience on pre-med probably

[dim stump]

i checked with my counselor and i COULD take all of these

except like

[cinder gorge]

what classes u take in freshman

[dim stump]

i def will not

i skipped freshman year

[cinder gorge]

should i ask if i can take algebra 2 freshman before this year ends to counseulor

i am freshman and in algebra 1 randomy selected course

[dim stump]

idk if u want to

im looking for advice here too lmao

[cinder gorge]

what classes did you take sophomore

[dim stump]

rn im taking calc 1 (taking calc 2 next semester), a college success course, a business course, then honors english, chem, history, and like a microsoft word/excel course

[opaque sequoia]

drop physics with calc 1

and organic chem 2 (won’t you take chem 2 in college?)

[cinder gorge]

this is outrageous

how am i supposed to compete

[dim stump]

was kinda thinking that but i heard from my dad that organic chem was kinda hell so id figured id try to dip my geet in it

but 1 semester is good enough ig

[cinder gorge]

or was i just never meant to get into t30

[dim stump]

dw i might only apply to florida universities

[opaque sequoia]

yes. you do not want to stress yourself out senior year, trust me.

[cinder gorge]

Whats math progression sorry i forgot

[dim stump]

alg 1, geo, alg 2, precalc, calc 1 + 2 + 3 i think

[opaque sequoia]

stellar essays mixed with a humble case in why you deserve to get into your dream school and good ec’s

[dim stump]

except you can branch off after calc 2

[cinder gorge]

Ok

[dim stump]

if u really convey urself you have a great shot. my cousin got into MIT with a 1380 SAT

and his extracurriculars werent too insane

[cinder gorge]

So i can tryhard and get into algebra 2 before my freshman year ends

Im failing human geo

[opaque sequoia]

nope, it is not the end of the world if you do not go into a T30

connections, experience, and personality traits are more important than the name of the school you go to

you could go to a school with 86% acceptance rate and meet RICH KIDS and become close friends with them, and ask if their parents have a job opportunity and they will literally hire you. then you will make easy money because you have the right traits and skills for the job.

[dim stump]

i mean i mainly stuffed 2 semesters of physics just bc i feel like 1 semester of physics would seem... lackluster? idk

[cinder gorge]

and the missing assignments require a netflix membership and a textbook

[cinder gorge]

ok

[opaque sequoia]

you have challenging semesters already, anyone will understand why you decided to leave one semester of physics or chem just for college

[cinder gorge]

Did u do amc

Do u think its realistic to only take a math coursefor 1 semester then go onto an more advanced one

[dim stump]

nah i just started HS i hardly even know what AMC is

and i looked at some practice problems

[cinder gorge]

if you excel at it

[dim stump]

theyre so weird

💀

[opaque sequoia]

yes

[cinder gorge]

i just want to do this for 1 or 1.5 years to catch up

[cinder gorge]

yes

thank you

[opaque sequoia]

it depends if you’re counselor allows it though so ask them

[cinder gorge]

i will just use khan academy

[opaque sequoia]

also you need to make sure you know the knowledge so you’re not left behind

[cinder gorge]

yes

i already asked

[opaque sequoia]

okay

[obtuse imp]

Why

I have an A plus in honors history an ap gov

[cinder gorge]

by the next semester if i do good enough on algebra 1 finals i get into honors geometry then if i tryhard at that i can get into precalc in sophomore

[dim stump]

bro how im ass at history lmao

[opaque sequoia]

unless you want to be a history teacher, i would not recommend (salary isn’t that great for history majors)

[obtuse imp]

Oh

[cinder gorge]

medical field finance or computer science

[cinder gorge]

He can be a tenured professor in history in the future

[dim stump]

no alg 2? precalc is a lot more algebra based

[opaque sequoia]

being good at 2 subjects does not mean you should major in those subjects

unless you want to do that with your career then it’s fine

[cinder gorge]

i mean i mean

[obtuse imp]

Just make it seem interesting to you

[cinder gorge]

i mesnt changing from geo to algebra 2 midsemester second semester then precalc sophomore

i already know algebra 1 and geometry btw

[opaque sequoia]

true, if he wants to do that he should

[obtuse imp]

Wht

[dim stump]

tbh if ur dedicated enough u can just self study precalc unless you gotta take it to go into calc

alg 2 is kinda free too

[cinder gorge]

im fucked

[opaque sequoia]

honestly i would recommend doing something you will love doing in the future

salary is also important, but you can’t do a job you hate just for the money. you might get discouraged when you start off with pay lower than what you expected

[cinder gorge]

ok

[opaque sequoia]

how did this happen

[cinder gorge]

thank you for advice

[cinder gorge]

missing big project

turned it in

still fucked

[opaque sequoia]

can you remind me what grade ur in again?

[cinder gorge]

9

[opaque sequoia]

oh okay

[cinder gorge]

we have big quizzes and anothefr essay coming up so it may be fixable

[opaque sequoia]

that’s good

make sure you study

[cinder gorge]

yes

[torn hedge]

Hey, for anyone who has taken engineering as a major or minor in college, would you recommend someone major/minor in electrical or mechnaical engineering?

[low igloo]

try grinding algebra 2 over the summer and maybe try skipping?

cause i heard you need alg 2 for pre calc

im taking it rn in freshman

[loud vortex]

Has anyone gotten an associates in math? A Associate of Science specifically.

If so, what amount of math do you recommend I know up too?

[gusty tinsel]

ok thx

isn't BC only two extra units tho

[cinder gorge]

Take AB first and then take BC next year

Free 2 APs

Rather than just 1 AP

[old zealot]

What aps should I take senior year?

[vocal leaf]

Should I go to algerbra 2 in my sophomore year or wait untill junior and hace it all 3 tris

I’m in accelerated geometry

[loud karma]

what grade are you in now

freshman?

I’m takin precalc honors as a freshman

so I might be able to help

[vocal leaf]

I’m sopmies rn taking accelerated geometry I can take algebra 2 b this year or should I wait

How are y take pre calf as a fresh Alan

Freshman

[mint thorn]

Twenty million

[mint thorn]

Just take it

It’s not that hard

[umbral umbra]

You should take more math classes, it would be more impressive for colleges

[cinder gorge]

geometry is 10x harder than alg

[deft maple]

I don’t have a degree yet but what jobs are you interested in?

[deft maple]

Geometry is too easy

[deft maple]

Sound like a great plan to me

[deft maple]

A lot of freshmen taking really advanced classes like that are probably in magnet schools

[cinder gorge]

Some people say its harder than calc

[deft maple]

From what I’ve seen a lot of people at my school including me say that geometry is easy

Honestly it really depends on your teacher

[loud vortex]

I’m plan on being an astronaut. I was just curious on what level of math you would recommend I know before I start.

Formally I know up too Geometry, but in personal study I know some Algebra 2.

[deft maple]

Usually you have to be something else before becoming an astronaut like a scientist, engineer, astronomer, and anything stem

[loud vortex]

I know. I plan on going to the US Air Force Academy and being a commander/engineer as an astronaut.

I’m just trying to make my application more appealing for grad school. And less expensive.

[deft maple]

Take AP calculus or any course equivalent

You should probably take both AP physics c. Don’t take AP physics 1 and 2, it won’t help you since they’re algebra based.

[loud vortex]

Alright, thank you!

[deft maple]

What type of engineering do you want to do?

[dull eagle]

physics c is just calc

[loud vortex]

I haven’t really decided, but I’m thinking mechanical engineering.

[deft maple]

Yes, it’s a calculus based physics

[deft maple]

I believe AP chemistry may also be beneficial

[dull eagle]

yo lmk if u need any help w human geo

im taking it rn

[deft maple]

You don’t have to do all of them if you feel like your stressed

[rancid kayak]

guys should i do ib

[deft maple]

How did you already learn the course material for geometry? I thought you knew only algebra 1 100%

[naive kestrel]

AP Seminar / Honors English II (AP Seminar is in the process of getting approved for the 2024-25 school year for sophomores, idk how that is gonna turn out)
Honors Algebra II
AP World History
Honors Chemistry I

[mortal roost]

?

that good ig

[idle cedar]

I'm looking to major in Neuroscience (pre-med) and want to be prepared for research opportunities in the summer was wondering which semester-long electives selection would be good?

Option 1:
Neuroscience/Intro to Biochemistry
Foundations of Immunology/Intro to Genetic Analysis

Option 2:
Neuroscience/Intro to Biochemistry
Semester-long Magnet Level AP Stats/Intro to Genetic Analysis

[fervent jasper]

would it be weird to do ap stat instead of calc

Honors geometry- honors alg 2- honors precalc- ap stat

[idle cedar]

i'd already be taking calc bc

ap stat would just be an elective

[fervent jasper]

i dont want to do anything math related in college or career btw

if that makes a difference

[fervent jasper]

why tho if they're both ap math

same weight and same req

[idle cedar]

stat to prep for research projects ig

[fervent jasper]

plus stat would probably be more useful to my major

polisci has a lot of data analysis

[idle cedar]

probably calc ab would be a good option

and then ap stat another yr

[fervent jasper]

my school doesnt offer ab

our only 2 ap maths are calc bc and stat

[idle cedar]

wow

[fervent jasper]

yeah its weird

[idle cedar]

then probably go with calc bc and take ap stats

[fervent jasper]

id do ab but going straight to bc when it wont be useful to anything and a huge amount of work seems kinda unnecessary

[idle cedar]

also, is it reasonable to take ap spanish lc if I already have four years under my belt and am not rlly passionate abt spanish that much?

[fervent jasper]

im going to bc i just want to be able to speak spanish

plus a lot of schools now require a semester of language that it could get you out of

if you have 4 years beforehand you'll probably be fine

so ive heard

[idle cedar]

but my track was wierd

spanish 1 --> spanish 2(for one month) --> hon spanish 3 --> hon spanish 4 --> spanish 5 (now)

[fervent jasper]

thats really weird

in my school middle school counts as 1, so my track is 2h-3h-4h- either AP or 5 base level

you'll prob be fine if you've done well in the other classes

clearly youve done well enough to do spanish 2 in a month and make it through 3 and 4

[haughty schooner]

Guys I’m in a bit of a something.
So scheduling for my school is coming up (early af I know) and I’m really fucking struggling with AP Bio this year. So do I do AP Physics, AP Chem, normal one of the two, or do I do the safe option and do conceptual science next year.

@hexed hearth

is this good

[haughty schooner]

I’d die doing that shit

[teal rover]

Why no Ap calc?

[deft maple]

AP Euro is usually a sophomore class, so did you guidance counselor approve that class for freshman year? I would also try to get Geometry 1 and English 2 your freshman year.

[mortal roost]

yes

i am testing out of alegbra 1\

so goemetry also get takne care off in 8th

so i do alegrba 2 Honors in freshman

Then try to self study ap pre calc in the summer

[deft maple]

Are you trying to self study geometry or are you taking it as a class?

[mortal roost]

i mean

i can self study ot

it

becuase it have to be a class

thoguh

[deft maple]

Your school offer geometry to 8th graders?

[mortal roost]

yes

[deft maple]

Craaazy, you go to a magnet school?

[mortal roost]

no

[mortal roost]

public

[grand flint]

dont most schools offer geometry in 8th grade?

[deft maple]

Ain’t no way

[mortal roost]

bruh

people can do alegrba 1 in 7th

[grand flint]

yea my school does that

[deft maple]

No, most schools offer 8th graders algebra 1

[mortal roost]

they do both

[deft maple]

Bro what????

[mortal roost]

if they dont offor alegrba 1 in 7th

[deft maple]

What state is this

[mortal roost]

tx

is my plan good

[grand flint]

for my school we has to take a test in 6th grade and if we did good we could do alg 1 in 7th and geometry in 8th

i wasnt smart enough to do tbat tho

[mortal roost]

i only have to test out of algebra 1

[grand flint]

tx the best fr

[mortal roost]

to do that

[mortal roost]

[grand flint]

isnt alg 1 a 9th grade course

[mortal roost]

its 7th 8th and 9th

[deft maple]

For average people yes

[haughty schooner]

Lucky mf’s get Alg 1 in 7th

[deft maple]

That’s what I’m saying

[haughty schooner]

I had mine in 8th

[grand flint]

same

[mortal roost]

bruh people can do 7th its rare but not uncoomom

[deft maple]

I’m taking geometry right now as a freshman and it is way too easy

[mortal roost]

then test out

[deft maple]

They won’t let us

[haughty schooner]

Alg 2 sucks

[grand flint]

bro same but i suck at geometry

so

idk why i suck i understand the lessons in class but then tests i like fail

ive passed one test out of 4 tests

[mortal roost]

speaking i might study alegbra 2 over the summer then try to test out and do ap pre calc after in the same year

[haughty schooner]

I have 2 A’s 3 B’s and a D idk how the hell you all manage

[deft maple]

Also ways reread the question when your done with your math

[grand flint]

i have all b’s for my core classes and a 90 for aphug

and im failing spanish😭😭

[haughty schooner]

This looks like hell

[deft maple]

@mortal roost you should also try to get English 2 freshman year

[mortal roost]

why

[haughty schooner]

I’m not even in Spanish and I’m a Sophomore 😎

[mortal roost]

besides my school doesnt let us do dual ellmoent for 9th

[deft maple]

Because English 1 is for average people and I can already tell your a genius

English 2 is a high school course

[mortal roost]

i can t becaue i cant do duall ellmonet for 9th

i want to test out of bilogy

[grand flint]

sadly my school doesnt allow me to test out of courses

[deft maple]

It’s not dual enrollment, it’s an honors class

[deft maple]

Same

[mortal roost]

but i have to do duall ellmoent

[haughty schooner]

Same

[mortal roost]

which i cant do

[deft maple]

Wdym

Why would you have to take a college class?

For a high school course

[grand flint]

but for math i can take like a 2-3 week course and move to the next math class so i could take alg 2 this year over summer and be in pre calc in 10th which is my next grade

[mortal roost]

i cant do 2 classes at the same time

i have to make a speical request for that

and that might not even happen

[deft maple]

Ohhhhh, wait does your school let you test out of classes?

[grand flint]

yo who here can do the statement reasoning thing for geometry

[mortal roost]

yes

[deft maple]

Yeah so self study English 1

[mortal roost]

bruh

i dont even have anything to start with

[deft maple]

Read Shakespeare

Specifically Romeo & Juliet

[haughty schooner]

^

[deft maple]

But ask you guidance counselor for help to test out of English 1. Also use spark notes, it’s website and a life saver

[mortal roost]

can i do normal chemistry at a local collage

[deft maple]

Yes but usually that’s for maybe sophomores but 100% yes for juniors

[mortal roost]

i can do it as a spmoremore

[deft maple]

Yeah if the school lets you

[mortal roost]

?

do school`s let you do that

[deft maple]

Depends

For example my high school says no for sophomores but my local college says yes

You need both schools to say yes

Honestly I think you might have a higher chance of getting chemistry at a local college

[cinder gorge]

@mortal roost

What’s your goal

[deft maple]

Spanish 1?

[cinder gorge]

After high school

[mortal roost]

wdym

[mortal roost]

go to an ivy leauge

[supple atlas]

uuh- for psychology what courses should i take in high school. besides the obvious (bio 30, chem 30, math 30, english 30)

is there anything else thats worth taking

[cinder gorge]

Instead of focusing so much on getting 26 APs consider extracurriculars

Seriously

It’s much more effective than doing 26 APs

[haughty schooner]

Sir are you real

Nah man like

How you do this

I can barely make myself get out of bed of a mornings

26 AP’s

In 4 years

[cinder gorge]

Consider going “deeper” into them

you don’t need more than 20 APs

Its pretty much a waste of time at that point tbh

[fervent jasper]

you really dont need more than 8-12

thats the average for ivy league now

maybe up to 15

[cinder gorge]

Average doesn’t mean good

[fervent jasper]

past that theyd rather see ur ecs and recs and the other stuff

[fervent jasper]

..it means whats accepted

[cinder gorge]

True

[fervent jasper]

the average is 3 minutes per application

[cinder gorge]

@mortal roost seems to insist on taking 26 though

[fervent jasper]

after they see 10 or so they probably skim over ur ecs and essays

they just dont have time

and if u have 26 aps with nothing else they wont accept

[cinder gorge]

Technically if you do 5 APs for 5 years

You have time

[fervent jasper]

no the admissions officers dont have time to care

[cinder gorge]

you can do 5 APs in grade 8

[fervent jasper]

they dont spend more than 5 minutes on any one app

that icludes classes, scores, ecs, essays, letters of rec, interviewer notes, etc

[cinder gorge]

Overwhelming them with 26 APs might be viable

[fervent jasper]

they're holistic tho

[cinder gorge]

Who wouldn’t be impressed by 26 APs

[fervent jasper]

i think its more like "ok he takes enough classes to challenge himself" then move on to a different part

[fervent jasper]

sure but thats still only one part of the app

[cinder gorge]

But they’ll assign a academic rating of 1

Which has around a 70% admit rate

[fervent jasper]

first of all how they do that isnt public info

idk where youre getting those numbers

[cinder gorge]

Common data set

Also most of it is common info

[deft maple]

@mortal roost what are you extracurriculars?

[cinder gorge]

I also know a stanford AO personally

[fervent jasper]

the cds doesnt include anything about what percentage of kids with a particular amount of aps gets in

stanford is one school

and also holistic

if u have a 4.0 with 26 aps but ur recs are just "hard working" and only joined a couple clubs theyre gonna reject u

its not just smartness

they want to see involvement, impressions, impact

fit for their school

which includes smartness but not exclusively the scores and grades

[deft maple]

I agree with Krohnus on this one

[fervent jasper]

how deep in them are you

awards, what level team, board member, etc

[tropic walrus]

question but what do u guys recommend the number of AP classes at what grade lvls

[cinder gorge]

You can join competitions

Physics

Math

[fervent jasper]

will you have the time tho

[deft maple]

You could do science bowls and beta club

[fervent jasper]

considering the 26 aps

[cinder gorge]

It’s not me

[fervent jasper]

true

[cinder gorge]

I don’t even advocate for this

[deft maple]

Beta club has a bunch competitions in stem and other things like art, music, and literature

[cinder gorge]

I’m just saying it could be viable

Just not ideal

[fervent jasper]

but i feel like anyone would have trouble getting involved in ecs while maintaining As in 26 aps

[fervent jasper]

i guess theoretically

[cinder gorge]

Well they can do related ECs

Like math, chem, physics competitions

Or even bio competitions

[fervent jasper]

true

[hexed hearth]

This is good but will be a lot hopefully ur prepped. Do u need to take bio 9th cuz taking ap bio senior year. Also get rid of E+M that requires some advanced calculus that might be a big challenge for u not having a calc class at that time. Mechanics is also going to be a struggle but should be doable if u self study calc 1 before u start it. Also I see u have world history twice on there. Just so u know AP world history was the old name but modern is the new class they have the exam for. U might not want world history just modern. Also try doing that before APUSH will help a lot. And then u need chem before AP bio will be nearly impossible without. Maybe do AP chem in 9/10 then will be ready for bio. Just saying that is a lot of courses so be prepared to suffer and probably not have a ton of free tme, especially in april and may.

[turbid gate]

The thing is they don't want an all rounder student

They want an all rounder class

So I'd recommend you go deep into a subject

Don't take all the subjects

If you are passionate for physics, go very deep into physics

[cinder gorge]

True

[turbid gate]

Same goes with sports

Don't go for ALL the sport

[cinder gorge]

Yeah and for anything really

Instruments

[turbid gate]

It just shows that you want to make your achievements interminable

[cinder gorge]

Too

[turbid gate]

Exactly

Don't run after everything

They want an all rounder class

1 student might be a consummate pianist

1 might be a mathematician

One might be an ardent dancer

Frankly saying, specialize in one field not all

Theres a frnd of mine whose sister got into Oxford last year

I remember her being an amazing figure skater

She devoted all her life to figure skating

While maintaining a good academic profile ofc cuz we all know oxford heavily focuses on grades

@mortal roost I rlly appreciate how hard you're working tho

Hope you achieve your goal

[cinder gorge]

khan academy

[cinder gorge]

its easy

[cinder gorge]

yes

[rancid merlin]

Hey, I'm a rising junior and wondering if I have a good course selection, I want to be a bio or econ major

Ap Physicis C ME
Ap calc bc
Ap art history
Ap gov and Pol
Ap micro
Ap seminar
Ap stat

Thank you in advance!

[oak plaza]

Ap physics might be hard without any alg 2 or trig

Also ap physics C is calc based

Also also have you checked your schools requirements? Remember you have to fill out all of your state and school credit requirements, you might have mandatory enrichment courses

[oak plaza]

Bro that’s what I’m saying, I litterally learned the entire course on Kahn academy in 9 days

[oak plaza]

🖐️ need help?

[fervent jasper]

Good for Junior year? (H is honors)
English 3
Spanish 4H
Physics (school req)
APUSH
Precalc H
AP gov and politics
AP Macroeconomics & AP microeconomics (they are both half year)
Orchestra

[frosty pebble]

H

[inland atlas]

im gonna be a senior next yr and im picking classes but im struggling to pick between anatomy&physiology or ap bio for next yr

ap bio:

• the class is rlly fun and the teacher makes it impossible to fail the class even if u dont do good on the tests
• wouldnt be as challenging as anatomy bc of how awesome the teacher is
• also js bc its hard to fail, doesnt mean the teacher doesnt teach, he will still prep me for the ap bio exam
• will prep me for college

anatomy & physiology:

• teacher is super strict
• his class is super rigorous which would def prep me for college
• not as fun of a period bc of the strictness

Also im not sure on what i plan to major in for college, probs more on the bio or public health side than chemistry major

Also im gonna be pre med!

[fervent jasper]

Seems like you want ap bio more

[cinder gorge]

Ap bio

Anatomy and physiology is not yet a AP course

[inland atlas]

i mean yeah but like which one would be better for me in college

[fervent jasper]

Ap bio is ap level

So you could get credit

[inland atlas]

Its still rigorous, also its dual credit at my school

[fervent jasper]

Plus if you hate a class you’re less likely to do well and u said ap bio is easier anyway

It’s better to get a good grade

[inland atlas]

true

im just kinda worried ab being biased towards the class based off how fun it is

but as a pre med its still a useful class

[fervent jasper]

And that’s still a factor

If nothing else enjoyment often correlates to grades

Plus do what u like

This should be designed to make u miserable

[cinder gorge]

I know

We have anatomy and physiology too

Its harder than AP bio

[carmine lily]

Guys, do colleges care more about course rigor or shud i take courses for higher gpa

10th grade:

AP Pre calc, AP bio (teacher is lowkey bad but nice and it’s hard to have high a) AP World History (easy but lot of work), English 2 (teacher is sooo hard), AP Physics (ik im doubling up science but honestly not sure if i shud), Dance (but i could just take it later instead of now) and theatre production

the question is shud i double up in science

yeah

yeah

but like AP Bio will take a lot of time, so will AP World, physics is a lot of concept so not as much memorization so still time consuming

oh no 💀

idk u shud ask ur cousnelor

@mortal roost what do you want to major in?

[deft maple]

Do you need AP music theory for that?

[cinder gorge]

I'll just ask here

Does the flex exchange program allow any students to apply or is it just students from certain countries

I'm from north Africa but I want to apply so badly

Is it possible to study abroad for free scholarship as transfer student
And which one will be the best option and how to apply
And whats the requirement

Yes it's possible

I heard of YES and FLEX

Also their is tech girls but it's a summer program

The problem is Idk if I can apply or is it impossible the info is kinda hard to get to

[cinder gorge]

I see

[cinder gorge]

Wait are u also trying to study abroad

Yes

It's been my dream since I was a little kid

I'm trying my hardest to get into kl yes or flex

But application is closed

So I'm gonna work hard this year to get accepted

It's my goal right now and I'll research as much as I can

[full tinsel]

Most certainly

Is industrial engineering a good degree?

And what courses should I pick in high school?

[deft maple]

Then you probably shouldn’t take it

[deft maple]

Are you interested in it for reasons other than money?

[calm raptor]

Not really sure, I’m just trying to look at options and my father suggested industrial engineering.

[deft maple]

Do you like math?

[calm raptor]

Hate it

[deft maple]

Engineering might not be for you

[calm raptor]

Damn

Do you know about a degree that would offer a more technical job setting like working with your hands.

[deft maple]

Welding or carpentry

[calm raptor]

There are degrees?

I thought that’s trade school

[deft maple]

they are

I can’t think of degrees that aren’t stem related

[calm raptor]

I mean I’m in the pre IB program at my school

So stem is basically destiny

[deft maple]

But you should do something you like and you said you hate math

[cinder gorge]

gardening

[calm raptor]

💀💀

[deft maple]

He said college degrees

[cinder gorge]

botany

[calm raptor]

Or university

Either one

[cinder gorge]

do u need a botany degree to be a gardener

[calm raptor]

No-

[cinder gorge]

well

It never hurts

[calm raptor]

….

Tetanus says otherwise

[chilly tapir]

[rotund grove]

[rotund grove]

do uk any degrees that doesnt require physics? i absolutely hate grade 12 physics so yeah maybe soemthing stem related or in engineering (not in biology because its not possible here if uhave math as ur core subjects)

[deft maple]

Maybe computer science

[patent badger]

a math or history or science degree is very good

if u like math history or science

@mortal roost

[cobalt shuttle]

Go with math and science and do like engineering or something

History is cool but it will not get you paid

[wise forge]

History is more of a liberal arts degree

History can take you a lot of places, but not in any specialized occupations.

(besides like teaching history at a secondary or below level)

A history degree CAN be good preparaton for law school if thats your avenue

Math is a more specialized degree program, which can lead to jobs in economics, science, politics, and accounting.
