idk tho my school says that chemistry is very strongly recomended

lone lion
#

just do honors chem only?

#

then ap physics

#

u dont need ap chem for computer sci

#

😭

#

@harsh hedge

harsh hedge
#

ok

wym

#

take out ap chem

harsh hedge

deft maple
#

Also what’s your major?

willow mesa
#

Are these good courses

#

Also if anyone knows what ap lit, pre calc, personal finance, and U.S government are like please let me know much appreciated

#

I need to get these in before next year which is like 3/2 months left

deft maple
#

Haven’t tooken the class though

#

Wait are you taking college level personal finance or high school level?

harsh hedge
harsh hedge
deft maple
#

@harsh hedge how many courses are you allowed to have in a semester?

willow mesa
harsh hedge
#

like i don't change each semester for full credit

willow mesa
deft maple
deft maple
#

Never took the class

willow mesa
#

What does dual credit mean

willow mesa
deft maple
#

Through a community college

willow mesa
#

Bru this is so confusing to pick my courses

deft maple
#

Do you want college credit for personal finance?

deft maple
# harsh hedge 6

I got to be trippin or sumn, but why is your freshman year not have enough classes?

#

Why is there 8 in a year

harsh hedge
#

what?

willow mesa
harsh hedge
#

i have like 6 classes a day

willow mesa
#

I don’t want to pick the wrong courses and struggle so I’m trying to make sure everything goes correctly

#

Although I can change it when the beginning of 12th grade starts I think

deft maple
willow mesa
#

majors include science English and math right

deft maple
deft maple
harsh hedge
#

all is year long

willow mesa
#

No I meant those are the choices

#

Right

deft maple
willow mesa
#

How many majors do I need tho

#

I should’ve looked at this during freshman year

deft maple
willow mesa
#

Ok

deft maple
#

Wait you know I’m talking about college majors right?

willow mesa
#

Yes

#

Like after graduating what major I want right

#

graduating high school*

deft maple
#

So what do you want be when your grow up?

willow mesa
#

hmm I’m not sure there’s a lot of choices

#

Can I get some wxamples

#

Examples*

deft maple
#

Take there test or whatever

willow mesa
deft maple
#

Let me send the link

#
#

Find out what you’re interested in and when you do, go out in the real world and find out if you truly enjoy it. You can do job shadowing, internships, clubs that relate to that major, etc

willow mesa
#

Ah i see

#

Bro I’m scared to go out in the real world what happens then

deft maple
#

Lmk when you find out what your interested in

#

You can send me a dm

willow mesa
#

Cuz I have one year of high school left and I gotta go to college/university for 4 years then comes the real world

deft maple
#

Take your time

willow mesa
#

And I don’t wanna get the wrong classes either

willow mesa
#

This making me stressed

deft maple
willow mesa
#

It’s probably best for me to have a session with a counselor right

willow mesa
deft maple
#

Then for your for your second year you have to pick a major

#

Gives you a little bit more time to decide your major

#

Ask your guidance counselor about an undeclared major though

#

Do you have an idea of what specific colleges you want to go to btw?

vestal crypt
#

How I would start thinking about a major is are you good at/enjoy STEM or not, STEM and non-STEM are the two major categories

willow mesa
#

I’ve been getting many offers from outlook though

#

Like TCU and Maryland university

willow mesa
#

ill ask about college and what courses are best to apply for

deft maple
#

You know what gen Ed is right?

willow mesa
#

Bro why has no one told me anything about this

#

No

deft maple
#

Oh wait I already explained

#

I’ll do it again

willow mesa
#

My school has living npcs no one provides any additional information that could be important

deft maple
#

General education courses are any course that is required for all majors in order to graduate college

willow mesa
#

Well not the teachers but the counselors mainly

deft maple
#

Common gen Ed courses are english and math

willow mesa
willow mesa
deft maple
deft maple
willow mesa
#

Alright that makes more sense

deft maple
#

Depends on the college though

willow mesa
#

Oh so some colleges require English

deft maple
#

Let’s look at Belmont university

willow mesa
#

While others require stuff like math and sciencr

deft maple
#

Ok so one of the Gen Eds at Belmont is seminar

#

So you might want to take AP seminar

willow mesa
#

Oh I already did

#

I passed that

#

I’m straight

#

I’m taking ap researxh now

deft maple
#

Another one is social science

willow mesa
#

So does that include biology orrr

deft maple
#

No

#

SOCIAL science

willow mesa
#

What are examples

#

Sorry science and social science get me confused

#

Cuz idk what one of them means I only know science

deft maple
#

So sociology, political science, history, economics, communication studies, public relations, media studies, and Asian studies

#

Pick one

#

This is only for Belmont btw

#

Also website doesn’t specify what AP courses would transfer so let me look into that real quick

#

Wait you taking AP bio?

willow mesa
#

Yes I’m doing ap bjo Mr

deft maple
willow mesa
#

rn*

deft maple
#

doesn’t specify what kind of history

deft maple
#

Also lmk if you want to major in stem

#

Cuz you need to drop bio for a different lab science if you don’t want to major in medicine or bio

willow mesa
#

Well if it doesn’t specify I’m assuming it counts I guess

willow mesa
deft maple
willow mesa
#

And stuff like statistics

#

oh

deft maple
#

If you major in math you’ll probably take courses in calculus and stats

willow mesa
deft maple
#

Mb I thought you meant next year

willow mesa
#

Oh your good

deft maple
#

What humanities courses have you taken?

willow mesa
#

So majors include English math a science and history right

#

So I have to select one of those essentially

deft maple
willow mesa
#

Do you know other examples?

deft maple
#

Did you take the college board quiz yet?

willow mesa
#

No

deft maple
willow mesa
#

I only take stuff in my ap classes

deft maple
#

I sent you the link right?

#

Here let’s move to DMs

willow mesa
#

ok

#

That sounds good

fringe barn
#

If if I do AP physics 1, how hard is it to self study mechanics

#

My school doesn't have AP physics C, but does have AP physics 1, how much more work would it be to self study for the mechanics test

vernal coral

#

#

too

south cape
fringe barn
#

It's just cuz they seem to cover a lot of the same things

#

But ok

#

Thanks

#

So are they really that different? Cuz if so I might take physics C online

south cape
#

Guys, can you give me some feedback on my course selections for 9th and 10th?:

9th:
Algebra 2 Adv
Gifted & Talented Humanities (English 1 Adv)

AP Human Geography
Medical Terminology
Computer Science 1 Adv
Spanish 2

10th:
English 1 Adv
AP Physics 1

Hi! What can I do? If my school does not offer APs two freshman, and only AP gov to sophomores while having earned honours? Planning on taking pre calc freshman year. Any tips? I sent a version of this this morning, but her is a more coherent version.

velvet depot
# digital cargo Hi! What can I do? If my school does not offer APs two freshman, and only AP gov...

So what you do is go talk to a guidance counselor. If you don't have one, your school sucks. A lot of times, the quality of your school affects what opportunities and classes are available, but most likely there is a program that can help you accelerate past normal program. I'd look into early college programs and tutoring outside of school. If none of that works, buy some books and study yourself. Princeton review has some ok AP books

digital cargo
#

How do you studying AP help if I’m not going to take the class?

#

I’m a little confused on your message

digital cargo
#

There’s 4000 students, I’ve never heard of anyone doing that. Like, I’m doing advanced stuff. The average freshman takes algebra, one or geometry, and I’m taking precalculus. They just don’t do aps fir freshman, and only AP gov for sophomore

#

Juniors and seniors to take any APs they want

velvet depot
#

So you have a couple options:

  1. Find a guidance counselor within your school and schedule a meeting to talk with them
  2. Find a program, tutor, or early college course that allows you to take Precalc outside of school
  3. Self study and take AP Calc later.
digital cargo
#

I’m taking pre-Calc! At the school! It’s just not AP

velvet depot
digital cargo
#

Also, I would not be able to take AP calc. If I take a sophomore year, assuming I take regular pre-Calc freshman year, I can’t take the ap version of calculus.

velvet depot
#

AP precalc is really just for people who are failing math. Generally most people will aim for AP Calc or AP stats. If you have any of these two classes, then you don't need ap precalc per se...

digital cargo
#

Do you not need to take pre-Calc? At all?

velvet depot
#

I'm not sure how your school works, but what you need is to create special accommodations for yourself.

digital cargo
#

?

#

OK, I think that there’s been some miscommunication, so let me try to just collect all of the information rq?

velvet depot
#

Sure

digital cargo
#

freshmen are not allowed to take any APs.
Sophomores may take AP government.
Juniors and seniors may take any AP courses they wish.
I’m not math, nor do I struggle with it. In fact, I am accelerated the average freshman, takes Audible and her geometry, correct? I am going to take pre-calculus freshman year.
If I take pre-calculus next year, as I intend to do, I will be on track to take calculus sophomore year. This means that I will not be allowed to take AP calculus, as that is not a course offered to sophomores.^ see above.

#

I intend to take AP government sophomore year, and take any APs. I am offered by junior and senior year.

#

It’s a fairly good school. Roughly 4000 people.

digital cargo
#

This feels incredibly extreme. Is it really worth moving schools over? My dad is a teatcher for highschoolers and works closest college admissions officers and I just asked him and he said that he thought that the school was great.

#

Just having earn owners, and not offering APs really make that much of a difference to the point of moving schools?

I was going to move schools to take German, but I decided against it so.

ALRIGHT BOYS- I'VE MADE UP MY MIND ON WHAT CLASSES TO TAKE NEXT YEAR

#

For core classes, we got 153/154 Precalc+ , AP Psych, AP CapSem, and Physics 111/112+
For electives, we got Store Ops, VComm II, and Photography+
Alternatives for electives we got Broadcasting+ , Intro to Business, and Personal Finance

#

keep in mind my school is strange on how they do things and the community college accepts a lot of stuff as credit so I'm getting cc for all of those classes

#

and the only one that has the usual AP exam for is AP psych

#

idk if it's all AP CapSem classes or just ours, but the AP exam is divided up into projects throughout the year so-

#

Like my friends are taking Pre AP classes for lit and lang

#

but seminar is hard I wouldn’t suggest it

My school doesn’t offer it personally but yeah I’d do some research from other people’s experiences with it first before taking it

#

or just suggestions

rotund stag

is ib gonna help for uni?

elfin hill
#

The level above regular

#

The label is like different

hushed bison
#

is there any tips for information system freshman?

elfin hill
#

Like regular algebra is

#

Algebra 2-2

#

Accelerated is algebra 2-1

#

And honors would be like algebra 2-H

#

At my school accelerated is just level 1 and regular is level 2

solemn hamlet

elfin hill
#

I need a certain score on the sat

sullen hearth
#

interesting

#

Have u taken physics honors before ?

elfin hill
#

And a chem grade of a B+ or higher

#

Right now I have a B

sullen hearth
#

Wow i’ve never seen this

elfin hill
#

So im trying to improve

#

Honors is just tough

#

Let me show you one second

elfin hill
#

But would this be a good path to follow

#

Like are the courses rigorous enough

sullen hearth
# elfin hill

holy all that for learning 7th grade science 😭

elfin hill
sullen hearth
elfin hill
#

If I showed you all the other requirements for the other science ap’s you would be mad

sullen hearth
#

šŸ’€

elfin hill
#

I speak with my physics teacher because she’s my neighbor and she says she hates it to

sullen hearth
#

Oh

#

free tutor

#

lol

elfin hill
#

It’s apes

#

Apes

sullen hearth
#

yeah it’s so easy

elfin hill
#

It’s not like Ap calc or something

#

Yeah it’s stupid

sullen hearth
#

fr

elfin hill
#

If someone’s interested to take the class just let them do it

#

I hate the stupid criteria

sullen hearth
#

APes is WAY easier then bio or chem honors

#

and it’s an ap class

solemn hamlet
sick mist
sullen hearth
#

i heard it’s easier then normal in most schools

sullen hearth
elfin hill
sullen hearth
#

yes

sick mist
#

ok

#

thank u

elfin hill
#

The only req for ap pre calc is a B+ or higher in accelerated algebra 2

#

But that shouldn’t be too bad

sullen hearth
#

i’m in algebra 2 rn

elfin hill
sullen hearth
#

it’s pretty easy

elfin hill
#

I want to skip pre calc tho

sullen hearth
#

i think you can do it

elfin hill
#

And go to calculus 1 honors

sullen hearth
#

it’s a lot easier then geometry imo

elfin hill
#

I have good grades this year

sullen hearth
#

nice

elfin hill
#

All A’s but

#

2 classes I got like bad grades

sullen hearth
#

like how bad

elfin hill
#

B in chem and B in history

#

Not horrible yk

#

But like

#

Yeah

sullen hearth
#

Not that bad

#

nice work man!!

#

Remember the more work you put in the higher grade you will get

elfin hill
#

But anyway

#

Adding potentially ap pre calc to senior year

#

Would that be decent rigor of courses

#

@sullen hearth

sullen hearth
#

yeah

#

so

#

like

#

if you take harder classes but get a B that is still much better then taking an on level course and getting an A

elfin hill
#

It’s just the level above regular

#

But the level under honors

sullen hearth
#

i’m not too sure about accelerated cuz idk what that is

elfin hill
#

It’s still pretty rigorous

sullen hearth
#

oh uhh maybe

elfin hill
#

It’s just like algebra 2 but instead I would be doing algebra 2-1 which is level 1

#

Way faster pace

#

Pretty much that’s it

#

Regular algebra 2 is level 2

#

Also does 4 years of spanish look good or doesn’t really matter

sullen hearth
#

honestly i think you’d should take all honors if you can. Because like you only got 2 years left might as well challenge yourself

sullen hearth
elfin hill
#

I won’t meet the requirements for them

sullen hearth
#

Ohh that’s why

#

damn ur school sucks lowkey

elfin hill
#

Do you think I can pull off like an A- or higher in alg 2-1

#

Because then the teacher will def recommend to an honors math class senior year

elfin hill
sullen hearth
#

yeah, if you meet the reqs for alg 2 honors take it. It is fairly easy

sullen hearth
# elfin hill Ik

And like also if you ever get stuck with like homework, or you don’t know how to do something you can always ask, or look up youtube videos. There is like a video for every concept

solemn hamlet

šŸ¤”

sullen hearth
#

he said he might

#

but he’d have to take pre cal over the summer

solemn hamlet
#

I would do that

elfin hill
elfin hill
#

Over the summer

solemn hamlet
#

Yeah

#

Calculus is important 😭

elfin hill
#

yeah

sullen hearth
#

cuz a general rule is to take classes that are somewhat similar for your major

elfin hill
#

that’s why I’m taking chemistry honors

sullen hearth
solemn hamlet
#

Also like the fact that your school has APs but you couldn't take them šŸ¤”

sullen hearth
elfin hill
elfin hill
solemn hamlet
#

What school district are you in 😭

#

Crazyyy

elfin hill
#

I’m not sharing that

sullen hearth
elfin hill
#

But only for like 2 science classes

#

Like ap chem and ap physics

solemn hamlet
#

Like an exclamatory statement

solemn hamlet
elfin hill
solemn hamlet
#

Why do you need an sat score for a science class šŸ’€

elfin hill
#

You don’t need it like

sullen hearth
#

ONE?

solemn hamlet
#

But like the sat has 0 science

elfin hill
#

You only need to meet 3

sullen hearth
#

i thought u just to fufill one of the requirements

elfin hill
sullen hearth
#

the requirements

elfin hill
#

One second

sullen hearth
#

kk

solemn hamlet
elfin hill
#

Others in my chem class hate it too lol

solemn hamlet
#

You don't need to take the sat to do apes

elfin hill
solemn hamlet
#

Kids do it in freshman

sullen hearth
solemn hamlet
#

šŸ¤”

sullen hearth
#

cuz at my school

solemn hamlet
#

They literally just have a set curriculum for the students

vital olive
#

u dont need calc for ap chem

solemn hamlet
#

Do this, do that

sullen hearth
#

like you only need to take alg 2

#

for ap chem

solemn hamlet
#

Calc for ap chem is just unnecessary like there is no reason to ask for it

elfin hill
#

I hate the criteria so much

solemn hamlet
#

But so is the sat for apes

elfin hill
#

It’s pretty old too like

#

Like this is just stupid

sullen hearth
#

i already picked my classes for sophomore year, what should i take for junior?

elfin hill
#

ELA course

solemn hamlet
# elfin hill

Benchmark scores on standardised science assessment 😭

#

They just typed out some jargan using keyboard auto complete or smth

elfin hill
#

For sophomore year

sullen hearth
elfin hill
solemn hamlet
elfin hill
#

But that’s back in 8th grade

sullen hearth
#

ap precalc, ap chem, apes, apush, eng 2 honors, ap seminar, and floral design

solemn hamlet
elfin hill
solemn hamlet
#

Calc in junior is great

elfin hill
#

Say goodbye to sleep

sullen hearth
#

and chemistry is easy for me

elfin hill
#

How are you doing ap seminar and English honors

elfin hill
sullen hearth
#

?

#

it’s not like

solemn hamlet
sullen hearth
#

a english fulfillment

elfin hill
#

Ohh

solemn hamlet
sullen hearth
#

In junior year i gotta take calc Ab cuz ab is a requirement for Bc

solemn hamlet
sullen hearth
#

but ima ask my counselor if i should skip it

elfin hill
solemn hamlet
#

If the school asks u to take both

elfin hill
#

Your already ahead in math

solemn hamlet
#

They probably go above BC in BC

#

Cus BC is otherwise only a semester worth of maths If you stretch it over AB

sullen hearth
sullen hearth
#

but like

solemn hamlet
#

Why are you taking so many APs then

sullen hearth
#

i’m not tryna go to an ivy

#

so

solemn hamlet
#

Yeah but

sullen hearth
#

cuz i want to

solemn hamlet
#

You need ECs for state schools too 😭

sullen hearth
#

Ik

#

I’ll look for more

#

What are good ecs?

elfin hill
solemn hamlet
solemn hamlet
#

A club can be a good EC if you lead it and do a lot within it, but just participating isn't

elfin hill
#

If I started like a chemistry club

#

Would that look good

#

For colleges

#

Or not really

sullen hearth
solemn hamlet
solemn hamlet
sullen hearth

does working a job do anythin

solemn hamlet
solemn hamlet
# elfin hill If I started like a chemistry club

You could list out stuff like if you hosted events and had a good participation numbers, if students from outside the club came and enjoyed the events too, if you held friendly competitions and taught the members a bit about advanced topics or smth

elfin hill
solemn hamlet
#

Basic ideas but just starting a club is pretty overused if I'm gonna be honest

elfin hill
#

You give good advice lol

#

And you’re younger than me

#

Do you like freshman year

solemn hamlet
solemn hamlet
#

Sophomore started this week šŸ˜Ž

elfin hill
#

Oo

#

Nice

sullen hearth

solemn hamlet
#

In terms of science, you might want to theme your application or have that related to your spike, and yeah, your admissions officer being able to tell your major from your extracurriculars is good, but it doesn't have to all be related

sullen hearth
#

lowkey in just takin a bunch of aps cuz i like to push & challenge myself

solemn hamlet

Yes

#

Yo I found out a course that I’m gonna take in high school and that is Spanish 3 which is like the highest course u can take as a freshman but if I take Spanish 3 then I’ll only complete three years of a language and 4 years is best if I want to get into other colleges that I want like the Ivy League Schools. In order to do that I have to take Spanish 2

#

Which one should I take Spanish 2 or Spanish 3?

cursive panther
#

Should I take AP Spanish Lit

#

or is it kinda useless and should I just take AP Spanish Lang

Ok

What AP/honor courses should I take in high school to get into MIT if I wanna become a neurologist/ study brain science ir biology in college

robust carbon
#

stuff related to bio

#

(rigorous stuff)

cyan elm
#

What should I double major in if I wanna be a neurologist (brain doctor) or just a doctor

solemn hamlet
robust carbon
#

couldn't you do the ap and ecs

#

if the ap is ez enough

solemn hamlet
#

Yeah that's why I'm saying it

#

Doing APs and not doing ECs makes no sense to begin with, if APs mean you can't do ECs, don't do APs, but there are a lot of APs which aren't that difficult, not all of them are ap bio or ap calc BC 😭

robust carbon
#

feel like that last one is a personal preference

solemn hamlet
