What’s the difference between HL classes and SL classes?? 🤔

[lone lion]

hl is higher level

Hi! Currently I am a freshman and I take French 3 as my language course. Last year I took French I in the middle school (and was accelerated past level 2 to level 3 upon entering high school). After French 3, I am on track to take French 4 and then AP French. I was concerned because I am noticing that most colleges prefer 4 years of language in high school, but because I was accelerated, I am only able to take a maximum of 3 at the high school. To compensate, is it a good idea to take ASL or some other language course?

[deft maple]

They didn’t give you a high school credit for French 2?

[fallen venture]

I didn't really get official credits, just skipped French 2 and went straight to French 3

[abstract gulch]

Probably because everyone including the people who don’t care about school are required to take it

[robust carbon]

You could probably put that in additional info.

[fallen venture]

will that put me in a disadvantage in apps for good colleges?

[abstract gulch]

I’m having the same problem

But if your school has French 5 take that which in this case I don’t your school has

[abstract gulch]

I’m not an expert so sorry

Bro the mods can see deleted messages be careful

[lone lion]

🔥

[solemn hamlet]

No, pretty much all colleges are alright with 3 😭

Plus if you're taking it until ap French that's gonna be fine

AOs probably won't even notice you skipped French 2

[fringe bramble]

• AP Physics 1
• AP Calc AB
• AP Calc BC
• APES
• AP Lang
• AP Comp Sci A
• American History Honors
• Entrepreneurship

Am i cooked?

[brazen trout]

Why would you take AP calc AB and BC?

[brazen trout]

My university says 4

[lone lion]

Fr

[fringe bramble]

Everyone takes ab and bc

Well at least at my school

Cuz it’s sem based

[main storm]

Do you guys think this is a good enough and rigorous schedule for sophmore year? pls @ me if u reply i dont check discord often D:

[crisp knot]

Yes it is

bro your lucky in your highschool you get to pick ap courses in grade 10, in mine we have to take it only from grade 11

[gray shuttle]

bro i wish my school had AP cyber

i would ace that shit

[brazen trout]

At the same time?

[sullen hearth]

AP cyber security]

?

]Never heard of that

[fringe bramble]

Semester

[empty pagoda]

WTH is AP cyber??

[crisp knot]

you will study the structure and the design of the internet

[abstract gulch]

Same

[lone lion]

there is no AP CYBER 🔥

[sullen hearth]

thank you einstein 🙏

[crisp knot]

np

[vestal crypt]

AP cyber security 💀

real

[final helm]

Yes

[final helm]

I don’t think that’s even a real AP

[main storm]

It’s a new course they r adding next yr

[main storm]

New ap next yr

[main storm]

New ap

[empty pagoda]

UGHHH MY SCHOOL DISTRICT SUCKS IM IN TEXAS 😭😭

[sullen hearth]

same

it’s not even that bad

[plucky oracle]

Yo before i accept this college application, should i stay at community college and finish pre reqs for CS major? for context im a dual enrollment senior in HS and im graduating with my AA DTA in the summer but i decided to go for CS instead of biology 2 months ago. I need calc 1 & 2 and two programing intro classes

this might be the wrong section to ask this my bad

[opaque nimbus]

I am planning to apply to UC colleges, and noticed that there was a fine arts req. I emailed the admissions people and they said that you could take ap music theory instead to fufill the req. I have alr been playing piano for quite a few years so I don't think it will be impossible (even though I dont have too much formal music theory practice). What this work and be a good idea? (i dont realy have space in my schedule for fine arts stuff atm)

[mint thorn]

It’s not hard but the basis of all of more advanced math is from it

So you gotta know it cold

[mint thorn]

it’s a lot of work

If you can read sheet music then it’s much better

but don’t fool yourself because it’s a lottt

[solemn hamlet]

It's super important
Do precalc over next summer, spend an year on alg 2

[merry pier]

What is better take a dual enrollment course of Biology over the summer at my near Community college or AP Bio? ( I am a junior in high school)

[sullen hearth]

what ever u want

[frank harbor]

When I took Algebra Ii, it was not that difficult but I found it super important for courses to comr like pre calculus and calculus

[sullen hearth]

ok

[cinder gorge]

If you plan on taking the college lecture and lab then make sure you are 100% ready for it. The AP course might be better if you feel you are not ready and need something with less commitment. If you feel ready though the college would be the better option.

[merry pier]

Thank you!

[wise hazel]

Im wondering what Ap chem is like and what classes go into it (like reg chem)

[glacial oak]

guys how over is it if on my senior year I'll take 4 APs, 3 dual enrollment classes and INSPIRES?

[cinder gorge]

You might be cooked man

[lone lion]

Guys am I cooked if I take 8 aps my senior year

🔥

RAHHHH L

im cooked tbh

[young vigil]

Do you think these are good courses (also for sophomore year)? Orchestra - AS English - World History - Algebra II/Trig - AS Chemistry - PE II - Study Skills

Also spanish and possibly physics dual enrollment

id have taken ap world but im not really a history person…

[sullen hearth]

prob not

just depends on which

[lone lion]

bro what

💀

nevermind ur cooked

[final helm]

AP

[sullen hearth]

what

most of the aps are not that bad

[sullen hearth]

wait so why are u taking it again

and what is AS

[young vigil]

oh im not, just taking regular

[young vigil]

it’s like advanced standing, where it gives you the gpa bump and is more rigorous but you dont get ap credits for it

idk they likely dont have it everywhere

[sullen hearth]

oh i misred

yeah it looks fine; i mean like i can’t really tell you if your selection looks good because i don’t know what’s your major, i don’t know like how good you are at certain subject and more

[young vigil]

oh wait no im a high schooler lol

[sullen hearth]

yeah but like what do you want to do

[solid tinsel]

when should i do algebra 2 by

[young vigil]

um, astrophysics but they dont offer astronomy or ap physics until junior year, and its highly reccomended to take chemistry so

[sullen hearth]

whenever u can

[sullen hearth]

oh i also wanted to do that

[young vigil]

whenever you get there, but ideally in the first three years

[sullen hearth]

that’s cool!

[young vigil]

yea!

[sullen hearth]

same problem with my school

[solid tinsel]

first three years of what? Highschool?

[young vigil]

yea

[sullen hearth]

ig u just take physics when you can

[solid tinsel]

alr,

[sullen hearth]

maybe anything elsa related to space

chem might be useful

[solid tinsel]

im an int student, do u know if int students should take aps or not?

[young vigil]

yeah i was thinking of either taking it junior year or dual enrollment

[sullen hearth]

are you going to college here

[young vigil]

ap isnt really useful outside of us but if youre going to college here then yea

[sullen hearth]

in the states

[lone lion]

💀

[solid tinsel]

yes in the us is my ultimate goal

[young vigil]

then yeah, but its a lot of rigor so be careful

[sullen hearth]

i mean like lowkey i wouldn’t u need a lot of stuff but u do u ig

[solid tinsel]

alr, then thanks

[solid tinsel]

ima do max aps bro idc, i need to get into harvard. 💀💀

[lone lion]

??

max aps doesnt mean shit

[sullen hearth]

gl ig

[lone lion]

if u only focus on academics

but alr go you!! 💀

[young vigil]

yeah i think extracurriculars matter too

[lone lion]

this server makes me lose a braincell everyday

[sullen hearth]

yeah like in the US u need ecs, essays, and more

he’s not from the states

he first know the admissions

doesnt*

[solid tinsel]

bro i can juggle max aps + ecs lemme cook

[young vigil]

it’s… really difficult…

[lone lion]

sure

[young vigil]

idk man im only a grade above you but be careful

[solid tinsel]

real real

[lone lion]

no matter how much u say it

ur mental health 🤷‍♂️

[solid tinsel]

what aps are u takiing?

[lone lion]

theres no point in taking max aps

[sullen hearth]

Dawg no shot ur doing like ap art or some other random ap. (no offense if you like art)

[solid tinsel]

mental health is in the matrix 💀💀💀😭😭

[lone lion]

yep ur cooked

gg

[young vigil]

my school did this equalization thing where you cant take honors courses freshman year…

[solid tinsel]

ggs bois, lemme clutch

[lone lion]

no

[solid tinsel]

damn

[solid tinsel]

nah but fr, im in my studyinghellaarc

[lone lion]

k

[solid tinsel]

heh

[sullen hearth]

lowkey aps aren’t even that good when u get accepted cuz they skip like the very intro courses

[solid tinsel]

u should just go ahead in the course work then? U will be ahead?

[sullen hearth]

and like u prob need the intro for the later stuff

[young vigil]

what do you mean?

[solid tinsel]

just utilise holidays and breaks to study fundamentals?

[sullen hearth]

yeah bro like not everyone had that much time

[lone lion]

bro what

[sullen hearth]

yea

[lone lion]

why ru using breaks and holidays to do more owrk

💀

[solid tinsel]

like for example u cant take calc ab till yr 10 or smt, study ahead?

[lone lion]

GO LIVE

[sullen hearth]

lol

[young vigil]

i did robotics where i was at school from 8:30 to 7pm i dont have time

[solid tinsel]

thats what every smart person does

[lone lion]

no?

[solid tinsel]

utilise time outside of school

[sullen hearth]

i understand

some don’t

[lone lion]

"smart person" doesnt mean u study 24/7

[young vigil]

yeah but im only in geometry so i couldnt do it anyways

[lone lion]

ur perspective is completely inaccurate

the concept of being smart is subjective

[solid tinsel]

i feel u, i have a balanced life, but cramming in studdy time whenever u can helps alot

[lone lion]

balanced with max aps?

ok

[sullen hearth]

smart logically will take you a long way

book smart can only take you so far

[solid tinsel]

no it isnt, its measureable with certain tests, and its how u define smart, in this case im talking academically

[lone lion]

yeah how YOU define smart

subjective

[solid tinsel]

yeah, i play sports, do music, have a social life, all while being number 1 in my yr in academics

[lone lion]

cool

[young vigil]

Youre in like 8th grade

[sullen hearth]

wow man

[lone lion]

oh wait no shot

[solid tinsel]

well generally speaking its about academic?

[lone lion]

he is?

[sullen hearth]

you want a medal or a cookie or both

[young vigil]

idk profile says class of ‘28

[lone lion]

class of 28 is a freshman..

[solid tinsel]

yeah, where im from, there is valedictorian every year, its called dux

[sullen hearth]

no

[lone lion]

soon

[sullen hearth]

yea

[lone lion]

wait ofc u have free time ur in 8th grade 😭

[solid tinsel]

im from australia yall, i graduate at the end of 28

im in 8th

[lone lion]

nevermind this changes everything

[young vigil]

no im freshman class of ‘27?

[lone lion]

read

i said

soon

!

[sullen hearth]

i gotta lock in for ap world

test

[solid tinsel]

wdym bro, i still do hella work tho, dont discredit the grind. 😭😭😭

[young vigil]

good luck!

[sullen hearth]

thanks

[solid tinsel]

damn good luck,

hope u get a 5

[sullen hearth]

i’ve looked back and reviewed unit 1-4

but like we aren’t even done with the course yet 😭

[lone lion]

tf 💀

[sullen hearth]

we still got a whole unit after this one

[lone lion]

oh

thats wonky

[sullen hearth]

and idk when this is gonna end

[young vigil]

i think the actual course can be different from the ap test so

[lone lion]

the last unit is usually irrelevant

for history aps

like 1-2 mcqs prob

[sullen hearth]

what is it like decolonization or smth

[lone lion]

nvm ur in world

[sullen hearth]

bro we are in ww2 rn

[lone lion]

💀

bros cooked

[sullen hearth]

and we still gotta talk about the cold war and more

i hate like writing dbqs but like the course is actually kinda interesting

and for that reason i might take euro

[solid tinsel]

also, im interested in finance and learning more about it for my ecs and sh, do u guys recommend any courses or some resources?

[wraith scarab]

i took principles of business that gave some sort of introduction the business careers

or any finance courses

[red path]

If you’re interested in finance I would recommend Investopedia (maybe?)

For me I’m doing principles of business marketing and finance and we’re currently just trading stocks and learning about the market 🤷‍♀️

[fringe barn]

@solemn hamlet

Here's what I've got cooking for next year
AP calc BC
AP Physics 1 (but I'm taking the mechanics test and I'm self studying EnM)
AP US History 1
Honors English 2
PE
Choir
Spanish 2

[solemn hamlet]

Calc BC in sophomore is 😭

Wdym APUSH 1 🤔

[fringe barn]

New Jersey makes you take 2 years of US history

[solemn hamlet]

💀

[fringe barn]

Which means I cover the first half sophomore the second half Junior

[solemn hamlet]

Can u take the second year over the summer 🤔

Or the first year 🤔

[fringe barn]

I should ask my guidance counselor, not a bad idea

I'm skipping pre-calc this summer

Hence why I'm doing calc next year

[solemn hamlet]

Ohhh

[fringe barn]

Algebra 2 is free, English is free, can't speak on the aps or chemistry though

By the way my school doesn't let freshman take APS :((((((

Which is really sad

[solemn hamlet]

CSP is free too, depending on the teacher, make sure to ask someone who did take it with ur teacher

[charred idol]

K ty

[fringe barn]

From what I've heard from upperclassmen us is really tough

[charred idol]

K

[solemn hamlet]

Again, depends per school and person

[charred idol]

ty

I might take APCSA next year too

my school has a goofy independent study thing

[fringe barn]

Both CSP and CSA?

[charred idol]

where you do all the tests and assignments for the class without being in the class

[charred idol]

yeah

they aren't related too much

[solemn hamlet]

Also what exactly do u mean
You're talking about the physics c stuff while taking AP Phy 1 🤔

[solemn hamlet]

So you still get a normal grade on ur transcript 🤔?

[charred idol]

yeah

[solemn hamlet]

I could see reasons to not do that 🤔

[fringe barn]

Pretty much, mechanics and one are super similar, and I would already know the enm stuff from studying for the Olympiad

And sadly I have to take physics at the school so I want to get it out of the way soph year

[charred idol]

I also kinda wanna learn java

[fringe barn]

I'm actually self studying coding this summer so I can get better internships

[solemn hamlet]

How much do colleges care about the credits tho, like does every AP exam count for a diff credit u skip

[solemn hamlet]

AP CS a barely has a useful level of Java 🤔

[fringe barn]

I'm taking them that way I can take upper level physics at my local University as part of the stem program, it would allow me to take classes like modern physics, thermodynamics, stuff like that

[solemn hamlet]

So you're using ap credits before you even go to college through DE? 😭

[fringe barn]

Which would also help me get internships because it would show I'm good at upper level physics

[solemn hamlet]

Taking over achievement to the next level man 😭

[fringe barn]

Yep, that is exactly what I'm doing

[fringe barn]

Yeaaaaaa

[solemn hamlet]

Yeah, they'd practically hire a uni student

[fringe barn]

Exactly, once I finish modern physics at the end of Junior year, I would have the equivalent physics knowledge of a rising junior at the local University allowing me to get insane internships and actually get good impact on the projects instead of just doing basic busy work

[solemn hamlet]

Mm yeah physics is crazy difficult to self study isn't it 🤔

[fringe barn]

It is, luckily my dad was a math professor so I have a lot of help

[solemn hamlet]

Chemistry feels a bit like it's taken the backseat in modern science 🤔🤔

[fringe barn]

Honestly yeah, it's just there to help out innovations in biology and physics

I feel like biophysics has more happening then chemistry right now

[solemn hamlet]

Like there's biochemistry

But besides that

There's very little activity in chemistry

Particle physics should be a chemistry field 🤔🤔

[fringe barn]

I mean physical chemistry probably has stuff happening

But then again physical chemistry is pretty much just Qm

[solemn hamlet]

Like if chemistry doesn't even contain particles then it's just such a shallow field overall 🤔

[solemn hamlet]

Exactly, chemistry is just a sub field of physics that's used for a lower level of understanding 🤔

[fringe barn]

You can make the argument all fields of science are just applied physics

[solemn hamlet]

You can make the argument that all science is applied logic

[fringe barn]

I unfortunately have to go, talk later man

[solemn hamlet]

Mk 😔

[pliant fossil]

how many APs should I take if I'm aiming for ivy leagues

[fringe barn]

How many does your school offer

There's no "hard number"

[pliant fossil]

not sure

[wraith scarab]

my state isnt requiring world history and economics next year

[solemn hamlet]

The average would be around 10-12 with pretty much all honors for a 4.7 wgpa

[loud vortex]

You don’t need a ton of APs. 7-10, with a weighted GPA of 4.4-4.6.

This year’s valedictorian at my high school is going to Stanford and her GPA is 4.4. Your extracurriculars are worth more than GPA for the most part.

[solemn hamlet]

This year's valedictorian
Yeah, if your school's best is a 4.4 wgpa then taking a low amount of APs or honors doesn't matter

[loud vortex]

She took around 5-6 of our 13.

The highest my school has had is a 4.7.

[solemn hamlet]

Being valedictorian is the best extenuating circumstance you can have for a bad wgpa 🤔

[loud vortex]

The average GPA of those that get into Harvard is a 4.18, so aiming for a 4.4 and above is pretty good.

[solemn hamlet]

That's not true at all 💀

[loud vortex]

I read the wrong thing. 4.18 was in 2021.

[solemn hamlet]

ECs and essays matter more than gpa, but a 4.5-4.7 or a valedictorian or saludatorian level gpa for your school should be good

Don't think that leaves any room for argument

[jovial basin]

I need 1 english credit and 2 (of the same) language credits to graduate. I have Eng 1 2 and 3 (3 honors) and Spanish 1. What else should I take that I can finish in summer+2 semesters (hopefully 1 semester - i need a free semester)

[vast oracle]

what classes did everyone take their freshman year

[sullen hearth]

idk but i’m a freshmen and i took

English 1 Honors
Intro to engineering design honors
Chemistry Honors
AP World history
Geometry Honors
Algebra 2 Honors
AP computer science principles

[sullen hearth]

depends if u like it

could you take french or any language in 7th grade

oh

i don’t remember what we had to do to get the credit

i think it was also that or just pass the class

bro i took spanish 1 in 7th grade and spanish 2 in 8th

i knew ZERO spanish

finals were scary

[vital olive]

or check what ur top colleges recommend u to take in hs

most do recommend 3-4 years so try and push thru a third year

[unique plank]

yea a lot of the colleges im aiming for recommend 3-4 years, i will take one next year and if i feel like i can push through a fourth ill do 4 :)

ty!

[young vigil]

orchestra, english 1, life skills.ethnic studies, geometry, biology, pe dance, and study skills. Id have taken honors but they dont let us take those in freshman year

[silver temple]

question: do you think it’s best to take a foreign language or a heritage language? like a language that your parents speak from where they came from

[grim wind]

It depends on your personal goals and also practical considerations

You may choose to prioritize practical considerations and opt for a widely spoken foreign language
OR
You can prioritize your heritage and deepen your connection to your cultural roots and heritage

[silver temple]

understood, but do you think colleges would care?

like if you take a foreign language they can see that you’re pushing yourself to something new

[grim wind]

Short answer is no

Demonstrating proficiency in any foreign language is advantageous

Let me ask you this: what is the difference between heritage language and foreign language? @silver temple

[silver temple]

What do you mean by poisted?

[grim wind]

ignore it

[silver temple]

i wasn’t sure how to word it but like a language that your ancestors speak

for heritage language

[grim wind]

If a student is, let's say, Chinese, and they don't know if they want to deepen their understanding of Chinese or learn a new language like Spanish or French; the short answer is colleges don't care. Chinese, French, Spanish, etc. are all foreign languages

[silver temple]

So colleges wouldn’t think that the student is trying to get a free 100 for taking Chinese?

[grim wind]

From a practical standpoint, learning a widely spoken foreign language increases your marketability in the world. Preserving the language spoken by your parents or ancestors can also preserve your own culture, its values, customs, traditions, etc.

[silver temple]

Got it

[grim wind]

Colleges generally recognize the effort and dedication required to learn any language

[silver temple]

Alright thanks for the help

[grim wind]

It also depends on the depth of study. For example, if a Hispanic person who is fluent in Spanish takes AP Spanish, then college admissions are still impressed because of its AP status

[silver temple]

Understood

[magic hornet]

Is calc bc wise without having done calc ab prior?

[solemn hamlet]

3 years is the maximum any college expects you to take isnt it

[solemn hamlet]

yes

calc bc is basically only 2 units more

[coral crane]

Just take ab

u will take calc 2 and possibly 3 depending on ur bachelors in the future

if u find ab easy then u still have time to do bc no need to hurry

[forest spoke]

is AP psych ,AP econ, AP calc BC( took AB) Independent Research Science DE and US History DE( unsure if i should take AP) enough for junior year

[grim wind]

Is it wise to self-study for AP Calc BC while taking AP Calc AB in the classroom? My school does not offer AP Calc BC. A friend of mine told me you’re given a score for AB when you take the BC exam anyway, so what’s the point of even taking the AB exam?

[solemn hamlet]

Sure yeah, that's probably the best choice

[solemn hamlet]

That sounds like a pretty rigorous course load, I'm guessing you have an English course you didnt mention

[coral crane]

u get a “sub-score”

so u get a score for AB and BC

[coral crane]

do u really need it? then yes take bc or else dont waste ur time

[jovial basin]

what the fudge

[solemn hamlet]

I don't think there's any fudge involved

[robust carbon]

[sullen hearth]

?

[quasi bluff]

ik 3 years of foreign language looks good, but how much better is 4 years?

like im not so confident in my ability to get a good grade in spanish 4 with all my other classes next year

and i was considering dropping it for varsity tennis

im gonna be a junior next year if that helps

any advice?

[coral canyon]

Hello, im an upcoming sophomore and I've taken honors biomed principles for next year, but I'm also given the option to skip straight to Health Science. I believe in pursuing a degree towards biomedical engineering and applied sciences. Should I skip straight to Health science or continue with principles of biomed?

[dapper escarp]

i think that either way you go won't matter a whole ton

[dapper escarp]

which class would you be more excited about taking?

[coral canyon]

I personally prefer the technological side of medicine. Especially with artifical intelligence, that really fascinates me. I find it mentally difficult to actually operate or try to physically help a person. 😅

[mint thorn]

well unless you want to go to med school you won’t have to actually physically operate on anyone

[mint thorn]

really it doesn’t matter as long as you get your final major

[boreal shale]

any tips on my junior year schedule guys? I'm taking AP Chem, AP Bio, AP Psych, AP Calc BC, AP Lang, Chinese 3 (as a non native speaker), and another elective; i'm also self studying world

[robust carbon]

Thats a lot of damage.

You sure you can take all of that?

You AT LEAST need to take world off.

[boreal shale]

however i have already done bio on my own, i'm only taking it in school because it adds a weighted course

[robust carbon]

Bio honors?

You self-studied AP Bio?

[boreal shale]

yeah, because of USABO and science olympiad

[robust carbon]

Still.

You should take off World.

[boreal shale]

that makes sense tbh, im probably going to end up not doing world as im just self studying and have that option

this sched doesn't include extracurriculars and work too

[robust carbon]

Exactly 💀

What's your major?

[mint thorn]

literally why

[robust carbon]

Assuming Medicine?

[boreal shale]

my intended major?

[mint thorn]

like do you have extracurriculars?

[boreal shale]

many

[robust carbon]

Yes.

[mint thorn]

which ones b

*?

[boreal shale]

neuro/oncology i wanna be a surgeon

[mint thorn]

because honestly that work load + ecs make me think that your ecs aren’t that important to you

[robust carbon]

Take off AP Lang 🤫.

[boreal shale]

bro i wish, it's required for us

[robust carbon]

💀

That sucks.

[boreal shale]

unless you wanna take british lit which is harder

indeed

[robust carbon]

Is anything else required?

[mint thorn]

okay I’m gonna be so fr as much as premed needs science basis at this point you also gotta get that research going

or like passion

because like there’s toooo many only grades ppl out there

[boreal shale]

ive won awards for science fair in regionals/county before, im trying to get to state and nationals this year; doing scioly hopefully; part of student government and a bunch of clubs including MUN; also have a job working at a science center and am working on research

[mint thorn]

okay cool

[boreal shale]

i've written 3 research papers (2 on my own and 1 with an internship) and am working on a fourth

[mint thorn]

I think that that’s honestly a good list

but you seem very like one note kind of

[robust carbon]

How are you gonna balance that 😭

[mint thorn]

like it’s good to have a spike for sure

but unless you’ve won UNASCO gold or platinum it’s not really gonna be spike-y enough

[robust carbon]

Take of AP Chem might work.

And do it Senior.

[mint thorn]

okay well research papers are bs unless you got them in like nature, but colleges want to see genuine interest

[boreal shale]

im taking 3 weighted classes this year and gonna study calc

[mint thorn]

like believe me

coming from a family of all doctors

[boreal shale]

its either i take ap chem next year or ap physics

[mint thorn]

grades >> everything for med school

but for undergrad ecs matter too

[robust carbon]

Dang.

Some good news.

[boreal shale]

spike as in like a MAJOR award/selling point

?

[robust carbon]

AP Chem 💪

[boreal shale]

YEA LOL thats what i thought oo

too

[robust carbon]

Spike as in all of your ecs are focused on one point/subject

[boreal shale]

ah got it

im trying to get into an ivy so theres that too

[robust carbon]

🫡

[boreal shale]

ik the acceptance rates but i want to be mindful of what im doing yk

[mint thorn]

yeah like what makes you sooo much better at stem compared to other kids

[mint thorn]

…I mean you don’t really need that for premed

like at all

frankly it’s med school that matters

my dad went to all Ivy and my mom didn’t but rn she’s making like 4x his salary lmfao

it just matters in what you specialize in

[boreal shale]

ah gotcha

[boreal shale]

true but its a want

[boreal shale]

yea

[mint thorn]

valid but in the grand scheme of things it’s not like u want law school or something where it does matter a lot

[boreal shale]

yeah, im just thinking if i run with those schools in mind that raises my chances for everything and keeps me motivated

[mint thorn]

fair fair

[boreal shale]

how do i like emoji react

[mint thorn]

uhm

if you’re on a phone then long click on a message

and it’s the first thing you see

[boreal shale]

computer?

[mint thorn]

right click I think? Idk

[boreal shale]

nope lol

i'll figure it out eventually

[lone lion]

womp womp

[robust carbon]

you just hover over a message and look at the left, and you'll see an emoji icon

you click that and choose what emoji you want

[boreal shale]

i tried that doesn't work

[ionic fulcrum]

I am a freshman in HS and am currently taking german 1

[lone lion]

ok

[ionic fulcrum]

i plan on taking german 3 next year by skipping german 2 cuz i want to learn on my own time

would it be more beneficial for me to take German 4 junior year or should i reserve that spot for an AP?

i would have 3 foreign lang credits next year if i take german 3 because i would get credit for both german 2 and 3

[arctic flower]

Hi everyone....I'm thinking of joining med school In a UK college but don't know what to specialise in

[robust carbon]

I mean you don't have to take 4 years but if you want to, AP German would be best if you could handle it, due to it increasing your Weighted GPA.

[coral crane]

u wil get exposure to diverse medical fields but you need to join the med school first.

[ionic fulcrum]

german 4 is weighted at my school

which is why i am conflicted

it counts as an honors credit

[arctic flower]

Thanks in advance... needed to clear some questions

[coral crane]

feel free to ask anything else, glad I was of assistance

[bold urchin]

Alright, need some help w hs courses

[magic hornet]

what's the question?

[bold urchin]

Alr so I’m a sophomore rn, my school runs on a block schedule so we have 7 classes in total. Next year, I’m thinking of taking Apush, Ap stats, Ap lang, Ap gov, Ap Econ(micro/macro), h-physics, dual enrollment in business (online), then at home as an extra I was going to take Ap spanish online… am I cooked?

My school makes it a little easier on aps making the A’s easier to get

But still

[magic hornet]

Isnt Ap gov and econ for 12 grade?

maybe wait

[bold urchin]

We can take any Ap whenever

[magic hornet]

I guess its fine but idk how difficult Apush will be

[lyric orchid]

So my school doesn’t offer Econ or computer science so I have to take them online. Idk if the computer will let me take both at the same time. I am also taking apgov, stats?, Spanish, and then either honors physics or Apes. Idk if that’s too much for me ( it’s my senior year next year and I’m used to only 1 ap)

So my question is

Should I take Econ or CSP

I really want to take Econ becuase I’m intrrstdd in it, but I might wanna go into a major in cs

[solemn hamlet]

Take them online
Does is still go on your transcript 🤔?

[lyric orchid]

Yea

Wait if I wanna go into video game design , like creating a video game , do I major in cs or in software engineering

I also suck at math btw

[magic hornet]

software engineering

[solemn hamlet]

Major in game dev 🤔

You don't even need a degree for game dev too 🤔

[lyric orchid]

Is there a lot of math?

[solemn hamlet]

Do you wanna do game dev or script games

[lyric orchid]

Like I want to design a game

[solemn hamlet]

Then a degree would be useless

[lyric orchid]

I want to work for a company that creates games

[solemn hamlet]

Oh wait

No

[lyric orchid]

Like Nintendo

[solemn hamlet]

So you want to work as a game designer

[lyric orchid]

I know not Nintendo

[lyric orchid]

Yes

[solemn hamlet]

That's not game dev

That's game design

[lyric orchid]

Oh

[solemn hamlet]

Game design isn't even software engineering

[lyric orchid]

Wait

I want to do the coding

[solemn hamlet]

Then that's game scripting yes

Game dev basically

[lyric orchid]

Ohh

[solemn hamlet]

And why? Just wondering

[lyric orchid]

Becuase I want to be able to create somthing

I don’t want to just add the picture

I want it to be what I designed and developed

[solemn hamlet]

If you're just scripting at a aaa company that's not what you're doing

Ok so you wanna be an indie game dev

Then a degree would again be useless

[lyric orchid]

Idk what I wnana do

This is a new thought

A few days ago

[solemn hamlet]

🤔

[lyric orchid]

Nvm

[autumn tapir]

should i join journalism class because my ela teacher im an amazing writer? 💀

[lyric orchid]

do you enjoy writing?

[autumn tapir]

a bit but im more interested in science

[lyric orchid]

I would say focus more on the science, you still get to show off your writing with the lab reports

[autumn tapir]

ok thanks

[solemn hamlet]

Journalism isn't even writing anyway 🤔

If it's an elective i wouldn't do it, if it fulfills an English credit tho 🤔

[old ferry]

what is music appreciation?

[red path]

Y’all do you know if HL classes give more credits than SL classes?

[harsh portal]

is areonautical engineering a good course?

[analog wedge]

yuupppp

but it needs a lot of potential

and a lot of hardwork

[harsh portal]

welp

i want to do it

[analog wedge]

not everyone's piece of cake i would say

[analog wedge]

ohhh sameee

[autumn tapir]

oh shoot thats true

its either journalism or litmag

idk which

[solemn hamlet]

I'm pretty sure a levels courses like those are usually weighted around 4.5

[trail tendon]

they do, in fact, some colleges only take hl credits

[empty pagoda]

What are AICE Courses?

[sullen hearth]

ofc!

[modest vortex]

alr thanks!

[sullen hearth]

ap pre calc credit doesn’t rlly matter if your gonna take calc ab or bc later

[empty pagoda]

apparently the objectives of ap pre calc are similar to those of honors so maybe you can study for the ap pre calc test next year too

[lone lion]

ap pre calc is wacky

[cursive panther]

do honors classes yield 4.5 or 5.0 GPA?

[tall path]

Is ap capstone worth it? My dream school has like a 50% acceptance rate but there’s this local scholarship Im going for that’s pretty prestigious. I think it would help me stand out there but from what I understand it’s seminar is just an English elective

[austere folio]

4.5!

[full tinsel]

AP capstone is overhyped by collegeboard

Better off doing AP Lang and/or AP Lit

[prime blade]

sometimes 4 depending on the college and course

[red path]

Really 🤔
Well my teachers said that depending on your future major, like math for example, it can help with getting into STEM or something

[final helm]

What’s that

[short pewter]

For an aspiring IR major AP human geo or comp sci a

[deft field]

should i take AP or Honors english when i enter hs?

[abstract gulch]

Does honors english teach mostly grammar? Or anything else?

[brazen trout]

I haven’t been taught grammar since 8th grade

But because it’s not a standardized curriculum it’s going to be based on what your school/district wants

[brazen trout]

When you enter take honors. I would say you should certainly take AP language. I personally didn’t get much out of AP lit when I took it however that’s because I’m a STEM major and will never touch lit again

[grim wind]

AP Human Geography is more directly relevant to your IR studies

[short pewter]

but doesnt it look bad since most people think its an ez class

[grim wind]

There is no “easy” AP classes

[short pewter]

i meannn aphg kinda is tho

like the hw is straight up label a map 💀

[grim wind]

Yes some have a reputation for being easier compared to some other classes, but regardless they still introduce you to college-level coursework

[grim wind]

That depends on the teacher lol

For me, I had to create several representation and did extensive research on two of the UNSDGs. When nearing the AP exam, we were all tasked to create a portfolio containing seven items that helped us study for the exam (practice tests, projects, research, flash cards, FRQs)

And also APCSP is way easier than APHG if that makes it more convincing

[tranquil dome]

Is biochemistry a good career option

[sullen hearth]

depends if you like it

[dusky seal]

can someone please tell me what AP lang is like. i really want to take it next year and im also wondering if it'll give me an advantage on sat or if English Lit is more that? #course-selection dont think i should tag..

[dusky seal]

too, the ap exam is also pretty tough (as someone who is currently studying for it too, and has heard things from many people and has taken practice exams)

will be tough

one of the hardest ap exams

i wasn't apart of the convo my bad 🥲

[red path]

Does anyone know the benefits of DP business management or DP Visual arts? I can only choose one of them and I don’t know which

[forest spoke]

I feel like i should take AP Lang for my junior year but english is my weakest subject and it’s might be to much with( BC, psych and econ ) APs . With Dual enrollment wit US History and Independent Research Science

Everyone is talking AP lang

[solemn hamlet]

How much harder is ap lang than the honors or regular version of English that you could take

[forest spoke]

much harder

like honors we have no hw

and they don’t care about grammar

in honors

[solemn hamlet]

What 😭

[solemn hamlet]

What 😭

Take the honors then, at worst you get like 0.05 less wgpa

The lesser course load will help u focus on ECs and a healthy balance

[forest spoke]

last year teacher never graded my essays

if you completed in you got a 100

[solemn hamlet]

How much AP Lang hw load is there at ur school anyway though 🤔

[forest spoke]

every night

i think

a lot of no red ink

my spelling is absolutely terrible

[umbral jackal]

yo wsg y’all

i take eco businesses maths accounting rn

for as levels

prob gonna take the same next year

but im thinking of what course to do for uni

maybe eco and finance but

give some suggestions

and what extracurriculars i could do in summer

[solemn hamlet]

Think about it in terms of career, not uni course or major
What career do you want to do, what do you not to do

[dusky seal]

help

sorry

[grim wind]

The AP exam is not hard

It’s probably one of the easiest AP exams

I feel like the reason that many students complain is because they take it during their freshman year, and most of them overestimated their own abilities for rigorous AP coursework

[sullen hearth]

omg that is so annoying

[sullen hearth]

in all my classes i get like no hw. Maybe one assingment from geometry and one from algebra but they aren’t long to complete. I also get one smartbook assingment that we have over a week to complete for world history.

[dusky seal]

lol at my school you can't take aps freshman year 🥲

i wish tho

[dusky seal]

really?

but how they word things with questions

unless from experience you have indomitible reading skill

lol

[dusky seal]

indomitable*

[grim wind]

I don’t remember there being that many reading questions

[dusky seal]

when did you take it

[grim wind]

There were a lot of data though

[grim wind]

Freshman year

[dusky seal]

lucky

lol

[dusky seal]

i mean by how they word things

to throw you off drastically, my teacher who is also very educated in this subject and all of this says that people who find it easy are probably psychopaths but thats his opinion not mine

[sullen hearth]

what ap exam are y’all talking about?

[dusky seal]

ap hug (HUMAN GEO)

[sullen hearth]

oh

i have to take the ap world test, i think i know most of the course information, but i don’t know the vocab that they use to ask the questions so i gotta study that

[grim wind]

I just looked at a random practice exam; everything looks pretty straightforward

[dusky seal]

weird

or maybe i am lol

[grim wind]

If I was in a time crunch, I would strictly only study the FRQs

The MCQ section took me about half of the allotted time. On the FRQs you have to have some serious bs skills

[dusky seal]

how much time are we speaking of in a time crunch?

[sullen hearth]

have you taken the whap exam

[dusky seal]

yes

[grim wind]

Half an hour?

[dusky seal]

oh

[grim wind]

Last minute studying shouldn’t be studying the concepts

But just the essays

[dusky seal]

yeah

[grim wind]

What is whap

World history?

[sullen hearth]

yes

ap world history

[dusky seal]

we study frq's in class anyway but i will like the last day i can i could study frqs strictly

[grim wind]

No

[sullen hearth]

damn

cuz we aren’t even done with the course information

we haven’t even started to talk about the cold war

[grim wind]

I transferred high schools in the middle of the year, so I had to stop taking world cuz my new school didn’t offer it

[dusky seal]

womp womp ||im so sorry||

[sullen hearth]

oh dang

[grim wind]

Probably will be self-studying apwh

[sullen hearth]

gl

[dusky seal]

but the real question is.. @grim wind why is it regarded as one of the hardest ap exams?

[grim wind]

Because it requires a lot of recalling content and information

The content itself is easy, it's just a large quantity of content

[dusky seal]

ohh

makes sense

[short pewter]

people overreact bc of the chronology and information even tho its supposed to be ez since it functions like a story

[dusky seal]

ohhh

that just feels so hard to believe though

its weird

i find it easy though

but i don't like saying that with confidence

even though im okay at recalling a lot of information (when necessary)

idk

i don't want to be selfish

or overly prideful and confident and cocky

[dusky seal]

what did you get on it (sorry its bad to ask 🥲 )

[grim wind]

5

[dusky seal]

jesus

lucky duck

but great job tho!!

[hollow ermine]

depends on teacher

for me its not a real class

free A for us

[knotty chasm]

Does anyone know if I should take this program where you can earn your associates degree during high school? I feel like It has its cons if I do decide to go out of state like when applying to colleges the college credits might not transfer or like it would decrease my chances of being accepted to out of state colleges. This is a great opportunity but I have mix feelings as I still want to take AP classes during my highschool years but I don't want to risk losing out on being accepted if I do take this program if that makes any sense?

[hollow ermine]

its good

grade and prep wise

[wraith scarab]

have an A in normal english too but considering ap lit

[solemn hamlet]

How much does the exam matter to you tho 🤔

The grade matters more for most metrics 🤔

U can prep for the exam urself for the credit, plus u only need a 4 that's easy enough

[inland flare]

I need help for my schedule next year I’ll be a junior and I want to go into healthcare sciences, here is my current idea, should I take ap bio or physics, also what is one other class to take?
AP Lang
AP Calc BC
AP Psych
AP Bio
PLTW Human Body Systems (healthcare)
Honors Spanish 3

[dusky seal]

is ap lang good for SAT? is the work also worth for colleges and stuff, etc, skills?

[dusky seal]

I keep spamming I’m so sorry 😭

I just need answers man please.

[umbral jackal]

yea idk what i wanna do lmao

im kinda lost thats why im sayin

[solemn hamlet]

Well, what field do you wanna be in?
Agriculture, Medicene, stem, visual arts, business management, finance, education, government, law and law enforcement, military, marketing, social sciences, or blue collar?

It might be better to start marking off instead of choosing what u wanna do if u have no idea 🤔

[cinder gorge]

Should I take biology honors in hs?

[solemn hamlet]

What kinda uni do u wanna go to

[cinder gorge]

Im not really sure but I want to look good for whatever college I choose

94-95-96-100 -> 97

[solemn hamlet]

Then you should treat honors as your baseline

Take every course that you can as an honors, and then take APs as your course load and school allows

[umbral jackal]

finance/eco/business but i want like a good salary and a market whihc has potential growth

[cinder gorge]

Alr thanks

[solemn hamlet]

And you're sure of that? Have you had any exposure to the field? Have you weighed the other options?🤔
Regretting this decision would suck for your motivation 🤔

[umbral jackal]

thats what im sayin i got no idea

[solemn hamlet]

Then list stuff you don't wanna do

[umbral jackal]

comes upto these

[solemn hamlet]

Why, you just said u had no idea

[umbral jackal]

because im interested in them and have been for a rlly long time

[solemn hamlet]

Ok so you do indeed have an idea

[umbral jackal]

but idk what in these fields

[solemn hamlet]

Interest and passion is good

[umbral jackal]

like the subject choice is vague but what should i do

like career options

is what im asking

[solemn hamlet]

Management can pretty much be boiled down into one core skill and then skills for whatever you 'specialise' in as a manager

Have you handled any kind of teams or done smth on ur own initiative?

Like a passion project or competition team or club

[umbral jackal]

i mean sports team but thats all

but dont u think business is too saturated

thats why im thinking mostly eco/finance

[solemn hamlet]

Hmm.. it can be hard to isolate that feeling from just one experience

[umbral jackal]

like a lot of students do business nowdays

[solemn hamlet]

Business by definition as a concept can't be saturated, fields and industries that you might do a business in can be

[umbral jackal]

but degree wise

it has a lot of people

[solemn hamlet]

Not even

[umbral jackal]

search on google

19%

one of the most

[solemn hamlet]

CS and Medicine take more people then 🤔

[umbral jackal]

no?

business is one of the most common

degree

[solemn hamlet]

Source 🤔

[umbral jackal]

jus search up on google most common degrees

most websites say business

[solemn hamlet]

That's not.. how you research a topic.. I can give you a source that says it isn't

[umbral jackal]

like rn i take businesse eco accounting maths

[umbral jackal]

which

[solemn hamlet]

https://nces.ed.gov/fastfacts/display.asp?id=37

[umbral jackal]

i mean still second

lmao

but wbt eco/finance whihc one would be better

[solemn hamlet]

From what angle

[umbral jackal]

money/growth

[solemn hamlet]

Do u not know how to read a graph tho 😭
It's third 😭

[umbral jackal]

im more of a eco person but ive started liking accounting

[solemn hamlet]

And that includes marketing and stuff too

[umbral jackal]

bro im on my iphone my shits small

sorry

Postsecondary institutions conferred 2.1 million bachelor’s degrees in 2020–21. More than half (58 percent) were concentrated in these six fields of study:
business (391,400 degrees, or 19 percent);
health professions and related programs (268,000 degrees, or 13 percent);
social sciences and history (160,800 degrees, or 8 percent);
biological and biomedical sciences (131,500 degrees, or 6 percent);
psychology (126,900 degrees, or 6 percent); and
engineering (126,000 degrees, or 6 percent).

@solemn hamlet

[solemn hamlet]

The thing I sent u was literally from the government yk 🤔

[umbral jackal]

scroll down a bit

[solemn hamlet]

The government probably knows what degree was given to who

[umbral jackal]

yeah scroll a bit down

[solemn hamlet]

Oh wait

What 😭

Yeah

11% business

Ohhh

Whoops

That's associates

Entirely mb

Mk so maybe I'm just dumb 😭

[umbral jackal]

lmao

its aigh

like i said business very common out here

thats why eco/finance

and i wanna know what careers i can get into

[solemn hamlet]

Yeah but it's also pretty high demand

You could probably write 2 and get a 4 🤔

I mean actually probably not considering 🤔

#ap-exam-help fr

[heady whale]

Hey are AP or IB classes harder

[umbral jackal]

is it?

ion think so

plus i think even salaries for business grads droppin

like look

supply of business grads is increasing right?

wages therefor decrease

now or later doesnt matter

thats hwy if you know anything about eco/finance i wanna know

[solemn hamlet]

IB fr
But it depends per class

[solemn hamlet]

No

Demand increases too

As the population and world economy grows

[umbral jackal]

well the average business student from grad is like 60

60k

salary

[solemn hamlet]

Wait fr 💀

[umbral jackal]

lemme check previous

[umbral jackal]

i think a fresher yeah

oh nahh

average annual is 65k

@solemn hamlet 😭

unless u got mba fc

masters

[solemn hamlet]

Well

A master's for business is way more common isnt it

Then yeah that bachelor's number makes sense

[umbral jackal]

🤷‍♂️

numbers prove it

is acturial hard?

@solemn hamlet

[solemn hamlet]

What

[umbral jackal]

actuary

an actuary bro

[heady whale]

Damn

so like Physics per example

is AP Physics harder than IB Physics SL and HL?

[opal valley]

hey need advice on my subject choices, im looking to take psychology in college so (these are all for the IB DP program)!
Lang & Lit HL
Spanish B SL
Psychology HL
Biology HL
History SL
Math AI SL

ive contemplated taking visual arts instead of histiry but in the end i prefer history more.
im still not sure about biology. i took bio only bcs i can handle bio HL more than chem. if i switch to chem, it would be SL. idk which one is better for teh course and in general i score pretty much teh same in both, so im not sure.

[red path]

I’m in IB so 100% it is

We have to do so much freaking writing 😭

But it definitely has its benefits

[heady whale]

Lmaoo

for what classes

[loud solar]

REAL

What are your courses??

[red path]

All of them 😭

[red path]

Well technically I start the program next year since I’m still in 10th grade :p

I can show you the ones I chose for next year tho!

[loud solar]

Yes

Show meee

[loud solar]

💀

[red path]

I was thinking of doing physics but I hardly understand chemistry so idk man 😞

[loud solar]

Real

[final helm]

they are different

[molten trench]

how you have geometry for next year if youre in 10th grade

dont you take algebra 1 9th grade

[sullen hearth]

she’s in geometry rn

she’s a sophomore

[molten trench]

ohh mb

[solid tinsel]

is alg 2 and pre
Calc good for yr 8, tryna do math olympiads

[loud solar]

Classes won’t do anything for you

You have to do competition math

Outside of school

[lone lion]

pre calc at 8th grade

wtf

💀

[final helm]

eveeryone differnety

[full tinsel]

How bad is the AP Music Theory singing?

[humble acorn]

If I take one cp course, will that ruin my chance of getting into an Ivy league school or a T20

[lone lion]

no

well obvi yes

but not ruin

[humble acorn]

So I can still get into a prestigious university

[lone lion]

yes??..

this server is so overdramatic

😭

i swear ppl are like "omg if i dont take 20000 aps i wont get into ivys"

[sly valve]

Hey everyone, I wanted your inputs on something. I'm a rising senior and I'll have completed 7 AP/IBs by the end of my junior year. I am currently selecting courses for the next year, and here's my dilemma----I'm currently taking two IB classes which are HL (meaning they last 2 years in duration). From a college admissions standpoint, would it look better to take two APs instead of these IBs? I'm trying to hit around 10 AP/IBs, and what I'm confused about is that if I continue these two IB classes, can I count 9 total (Current 7+2 of senior year) or will colleges still view it as 7 AP/IBs throughout high school as I'm continuing the same IB courses again. If this doesn't make sense please let me know, I'll try to explain it better as I may not have explained it best here

[frigid vale]

My school requires us to take PREAP psych alongside AP psych now to better prepare for the AP exam.
I want to take the AP exam. My summer courses offer AP psych as a semester course ,
So is it better to take that summer course and self study for the AP exam or just take it during school?

Rn I have it listed for in school

[red path]

Ik but what’s the difference between physics and the other course? (Environ Sys & Social SL)

[heady whale]

wait so why did you say its so much writing?

[umbral jackal]

anyone know what courses are best in economics or finance

for uni

[solemn hamlet]

CP stands for? 🤔

Your Wgpa as a number matters, and it only matters to a point. For T20s, ECs are more important.

[vestal crypt]

also getting into a t20 doesnt really matter 😭
its just a shiny title

its cool but not what completely matters

[astral arrow]

is this where i can ask about like, going into ib/ig/tawjihi n stuff?

[polar plaza]

College prep level class

The easiest level offered by your high school

Yall think too much 🤦

[red path]

They’re preparing us for next year by giving us something to write about every other week

[solemn hamlet]

No, that's what I thought too just like a low level of class

[south cape]

Rate my 10th grade classes next year:

Academic Decathlon
AP Precalculus
AP Physics 1
AP Chemistry
Anatomy & Physiology
English 2 Advanced
AP World History
Spanish 3 Advanced

[topaz cipher]

my rating is: good luck

[south cape]

Thx

[umbral jackal]

anyone know what courses are best in economics or finance

[rocky grove]

Nice but how come you're skipping AP Seminar?

[polar plaza]

No I meant the person thinking that a cp class would ruin their application

[solemn hamlet]

mm yeah they're definetely lacking in the critical thinking department

[solemn hamlet]

what

[solemn hamlet]

Does your school just not offer honors classes?

[rocky grove]

Typically afaik, there's an option to take English 2 or AP Seminar, AP Seminar is a replacement for the English 2 credit.

[solemn hamlet]

ur state is prob weird or smth
AP Seminar is usually an elective

[rocky grove]

Weird, in Kentucky it's definitely not, and we have no honors classes :(

[solemn hamlet]

That's not rlly smth to be sad about tho

the AO will know that

[rocky grove]

true

[coarse sigil]

I assume you go to a private school?

CP = college prep?

[umbral jackal]

anyone know what courses are best in economics or finance

anyone 😭

[lyric orchid]

Ap macro or micro

[stoic spire]

hey guys

anyone here an expert or veteran on the BBA( management) undergrad degree ( indian)?

[umbral jackal]

i take as level

i haven’t thought anything bout uni

except the fact im going in eco or finance

[solemn hamlet]

What country do u wanna go to then, ur home country?

[umbral jackal]

my parents are thinking bout aus or ik
