course-selection

[worldly flume]

it helped me

[willow mesa]

Ah yeah but I only have 2 days 😭

I’m just gonna put the date next to the word instead and memorize it like that

[worldly flume]

alralr if u insist

[willow mesa]

Hmmm ok maybe I could ask my junior friends if they know any seniors taking it so I could ask them about it

[willow mesa]

Yeah cuz I have to define the vocab still so I won’t have much time and I’m putting this into a website called knowt which is a feee Quizlet to do practice MCQs and flashcards

I’ve finished unit 1 so far and around halfway done with unit 2

Then I’ll study once I finish all 9 units and cram

[worldly flume]

okk i hope u get a 5 😭🙏🙏

u got this

[willow mesa]

I’m gonna lock in during school tomorrow carrying my computer around to make sure I waste no time in every class

I’ll also have my computer in my hands at lunch to work on it there as well

[willow mesa]

Nah I’m getting a 1

Bro cuz I actually got a 1 and 2 on ap human and ap world

During sophomore and freshman uear

Hopefully I do betyer

[worldly flume]

okok smartt

[worldly flume]

omg im taking ap world next year

[willow mesa]

Did u take ap world or ap hunan and get a high score

[worldly flume]

was the exam bad

[willow mesa]

Oh ok

[worldly flume]

no i havent taken any of those yet

[willow mesa]

Honestly I don’t think so but I could be wrong

Well I got a low score but that could be because I didn’t study or something

[willow mesa]

Ok

[worldly flume]

oh okokk

have u taken ap comp sci principals

[willow mesa]

Man always the smart people that are willing to study with me aren’t at my school

[willow mesa]

No

[worldly flume]

i have a exam for that next wed

[worldly flume]

loll

[willow mesa]

Nice is it an easy clas

[worldly flume]

no i suck at coding

but if ure good at it then it’ll be a breeze

[willow mesa]

Ah yeah that’s confusing

[worldly flume]

yeaa coding is confusing 😭

[willow mesa]

I took cybersecurity and had to google codes since it got confusing

It was pretty solid tho

[worldly flume]

wait whats ur gpa

[willow mesa]

I haven’t checked but I’d guess it’s a 3.8/3.7

[worldly flume]

broo coding << anything else

[willow mesa]

I need to ask my counselor for my trnascoprtn

[worldly flume]

oo thats rlyy good

[willow mesa]

transcript*

[worldly flume]

oo u should

u need it to apply to colleges i think yea

[willow mesa]

Yeah so basically I’m gonna prepare for apush first then ap lang then ap bio

[willow mesa]

Depends on which one

[worldly flume]

omg ure in ap bio too

im taking that next uear

[willow mesa]

Are you?

[worldly flume]

is it bad

[willow mesa]

Oh ok

[worldly flume]

pls be honest

[willow mesa]

Yes I’m suffering

[worldly flume]

OMG STOP

[willow mesa]

But it’s different for everyone

[worldly flume]

i took apes

[willow mesa]

just make sure you study well

[worldly flume]

and i got 5 on that

okokk

[willow mesa]

Bro I’m taking ap env next year

[worldly flume]

OO

[willow mesa]

Is it easy? 😭

[worldly flume]

bro its SOSOSOSO EAST

[willow mesa]

It’s like oppposite day

[worldly flume]

EASY

[willow mesa]

really?

[worldly flume]

YEAH MCQ EASY

FRQ EASY

[willow mesa]

I searched online and it was talking about how it was hard

Do you know what it’s about

[worldly flume]

no definitely not

[worldly flume]

apes?

[willow mesa]

Yea

Do you have to write like paragraph long responses on frqs btw or just a sentence or two?

[worldly flume]

ecosystems, demographics, uhh like species and all those its rly not that bad

[worldly flume]

oh no

i wrote like 1-3 sentences

[willow mesa]

Oh ok so that doesn’t seem to bad

[worldly flume]

it rly wasnt

[willow mesa]

I’m haunt the same teacher I had for ap research and seminar in ap encironemtnal

[worldly flume]

and the math for apes wasnt bad at all too

[willow mesa]

3 years in a row kinda crazy

[worldly flume]

ask them for the recommendation letter 🙄

i would if i were u lol

[willow mesa]

Ap biology math is gonna milk your brain I think

And it also has graphing problems

[worldly flume]

i like graphing

is that weird 🧍🏻‍♀️

[willow mesa]

there’s like box plot graphs and some orhers

Might be difficult

[worldly flume]

whats rhe content

like

ik its bio

[willow mesa]

Macromolecules, enzymes, genes, DNA, organelles, etc

There’s more to it

I can’t memorize all of it since there’s a bunch

[worldly flume]

oo okokk

not bad idk i wanna go to premed so those things interests me 😭

[willow mesa]

And for the math there’s this thing called chi squares and simpsons index

There’s other things as well

[worldly flume]

SAY WHAT

oh no

nah im done for

i have it online too

[willow mesa]

The graphs are box plots or crater plots but there’s a grass with 2SEx bars

Error bar graphs

[worldly flume]

is it easy to learn

like the graphs

[willow mesa]

That might be easier if you just search up answrs

I think so I’m having difficulty though

I haven’t done well for tests since my teachers spam me with busy work causing me to sleep late and have no time to study

[worldly flume]

oo

[willow mesa]

Next year I’m doing better tho

As soon as next year starts I begin practicing for the exam and preparing for it little by little each day

And doing all my work in an even fashion

[worldly flume]

no thats rly good

good for u

[willow mesa]

I’m gonna do mini study sessions next year in August during lunch or at home

[worldly flume]

what colleges are u thinking of applying to?

[willow mesa]

And I’ll try to engage and keep up with classes better hopefully if all goes to plan

[willow mesa]

Not sure but I am majoring in graphic design possibly

Maybe web development or ux ui designing

[willow mesa]

Belmont university is on my list so far

[worldly flume]

oo nice computers 😭😭

[willow mesa]

I might add more to it though

yeah my brother goes there to

[worldly flume]

ive never heard of that gimme a sec

[willow mesa]

I’m getting many requests from colleges for admissions and scholarships tho

Only problem is I have no idea how those work and I might not have enough time to learn about it

[worldly flume]

yeahh they do that 😭

[worldly flume]

samee

[willow mesa]

Il probably learn about it during senior year tho

[worldly flume]

ima apply early to colleges

[willow mesa]

Cuz I have one year left until college

Gonna have to say goodbye to Hugh schoo

A bit sad honestly I might cry

[worldly flume]

ure not gonna apply early?

[worldly flume]

fet

felt

[willow mesa]

Idk cuz I’m not exactly sure yet which one ill@apply to

Belmont is on the list but there could be more opportunities out there

But it’s like outside of state so idk that kinda depends on what my parents feel

Like Syracuse university for example

I’m getting emails from them

Ight I gotta sleep

[worldly flume]

outside of states always cost so much 😭🙏

[worldly flume]

OKOK

goodnihht BYEE

[willow mesa]

I’m going to prepare for apush and then ap lang and also talk about if I should take ap lit

[willow mesa]

Gn

[worldly flume]

okok have fun w all that 😭

[willow mesa]

It will be a nightmare

[worldly flume]

BRO GO SLEEP

U NEED IT

[willow mesa]

Anyways gn lol I gotta fr sleep

Yeah ik 😂

[worldly flume]

YEAH okokk byebyee

[sand pebble]

Is computer engineering worth it?

[supple flame]

sure

what are you planning for your major

[heavy drum]

So I am taking 4 ap next year

Should I add in ap chem

[tiny lily]

Is taking these classes in junior year a good idea?

AP Pre-calc
AP Lang
AP World
AP Chem
AP Psych
AP Mac (Semester-long)
AP Gov (Semester-long)
Ceramics and Sculptures 1 (Semester-long)
Ceramics and Sculptures 2 (Semester-long)

I'm taking Ceramics and Sculptures so that I can create an art portfolio and boost my chances at the T20s

[gilded wing]

are you trying to like

stay up every day until 2am

[waxen hinge]

lwk

its fine

im doing 6 APs

and im taking teh harder ones

[gilded wing]

AP Pre-Calc seems pointless? I think most colleges would want a calc AP instead.

[waxen hinge]

im sure they can do it if they have the motivation

[gilded wing]

you dont define them though lol

[waxen hinge]

huh

[gilded wing]

you cant just say some kid can heathily manage 7 APs as lon gas "they have the motivation"

just cause you did 6

[chrome sequoia]

is this chat for like college courses or extra time in school?

[waxen hinge]

no

its not what i meant lol

im saying

if the kid wants to take 7 APs

they are gonna need a lot of motivation

[timid dune]

Hi

[waxen hinge]

im taking 6 yes but I have seen ppl take 7 , 8, even 9

not tryna demotivate them

they can always drop afterwards

also pre calc does seem useless

dont take pre calc

@tiny lily

[gilded wing]

If you're sure you can take 7 APs healthily then go for it, but otherwise I'd suggest omitting some.

AP Pre-Calc is practically useless.
And I'm willing to say you can delay some of them for your senior year.

[waxen hinge]

pre CALC SUCKS

DONT

TAKE IT

OMG

[gilded wing]

If you're also an art student, it'd probably be best to take an art AP, though I don't know which ones exist.

[waxen hinge]

😭 WHY DID THEY EVEN MAKE IT A THINg

[gilded wing]

I mean, they might not be able to take calculus immediately? Though even then it'd be better to take honors precalc.

[waxen hinge]

no ik that

Im saying why did collegeboard even make that desicion

that class is not a gpa booster if ur not good at math

precalc is harder than bc and ab

[gilded wing]

i mean it servers two purposes

1. AP math for kids who aren't the best at math
2. Sort of a "beginner" AP class (though by the time you reach pre-calc you've probably already taken an AP class before)

[waxen hinge]

yeah

i still see no point bc ppl who arent good at math are not recoomended for that class

loll

[gilded wing]

tbf kids who aren't good at math are probs not taking the initiative to ask to be put into an AP math class lol

[tiny lily]

That's what I'm hearing at my school too, but it is a prerequisite for calc so cant really do much.

[tiny lily]

It would definitely be difficult, should I drop mac and gov?

[tiny lily]

Lmaooo

Definitely no but my gpa has been bad with my regular classes because of sucking teachers so just wanted to take as many aps with good teachers as possible.

[tiny lily]

Im taking other aps senior year

I dont want to take spanish 3 for my junior year cuz gosh i hate the life out of it. So its' either that, Ap mac and gov, an elective, or physics

[brazen trout]

as someone in college, get it done in highschool

it sucks having to take spanish

[tiny lily]

But it's not a requirement in college is it?

My gpa is getting shot at because of spanish and it's not gonna look good for T20s

[brazen trout]

100%

is

Gotta get a language and a lot of schools will let u out of it if you take it in highschool

[tiny lily]

Really sucks

[brazen trout]

yeah, my school says if you take up to a level 4 you can get out of it

[tiny lily]

will look into it, thanks

[barren chasm]

when should I apply to colleges? (im a junior)

[grim wind]

2 years is usually the standard, but for more elite and prestigious universities you should aim for 3-4 years

[lone lion]

fr

the pre calc class is harder then the ap exam

for some stupid reason

[coarse sigil]

burn out speedrun

[abstract gulch]

Is this good for my younger brother?(10th grade)

1. Hon Soph Eng
2. Hon Pre Calc
3. Spanish III
4. A.P. Bio
5. A.P. World
6. A.P. Comp Sci A

I told him to take normal chem before AP chem, but he says he doesn’t need to, what do u guys think abt it?

[abstract gulch]

Oh my god hell no

Just take spanish III

[sullen hearth]

Bro yes he does

he is NOT him

[abstract gulch]

Yeah ik right lol

But I’ll not tell him

I told him so many times

But he says it’s alr

So I wanna see how it goes😙

[grim wind]

I think it's great

All my friends took AP Chemistry in their sophomore year

[abstract gulch]

Really?

Did they take normal chem before?

[grim wind]

I mean I could've as well, but...I transferred in the middle of the school year, so that messed up all my plans lol

[grim wind]

no

all freshmen at my school are required to take a general science class

i think its called integrated science or smth?

[abstract gulch]

Ohh

Ok

[abstract gulch]

So that course probably included some basic chemistry right?

[grim wind]

so now im gonna take ap physics and ap chem at the same time lol

[abstract gulch]

Oh no

[grim wind]

nah

[abstract gulch]

Good luck

[grim wind]

i took it in my sophomore year

useless class

[abstract gulch]

Ok

I’m taking it next year

So I’ll see

Gl on both ap phys and chem

[grim wind]

yeah

i mainly blame my counselor tho

she saw that I was in the IB pathway and was taking pre-IB bio, so she was like "lets put this guy in regular biology"

even though it was obvious that an academic asset like me was going to take AP bio later in my secondary education

I am definitely taking all of the AP classes:

AP Macroeconomics
AP US History
AP Calculus AB
AP Physics 1
AP Chemistry
AP Lang
Spanish II

But I am worried about Spanish II

I know ivys need 4 years of foreign language, so should I take Spanish 1-4 and leave it? Or should I take AP Spanish? (Keep in mind my school requires you to take Spanish 1-4 to take AP Spanish)

[jagged swift]

Is taking AP computer science principals my sophomore year a bad choice?

[brazen trout]

Spanish II was easy

[brazen trout]

It’s not that hard at all

If you want to take it then it’s not a bad choice

[undone grove]

If I am deciding between Pharmacy and Chemical Engineering, which two of the classes listed below would you recommend?

AP Biology
AP Physics II
Dual Enrollment Anatomy and Physiology

[deep sedge]

You should see those videos about the day in the life of those jobs then see what you like the most. But
AP biology might be your better path

[heavy drum]

Should I take ap bio and ap chem in the same year

[deep sedge]

Depends on your likings. I think AP Chem is really hard.

What course should I take? I really want to be a Doctor (Family Medicine Physician) what course should I take?

[sullen hearth]

biology

[deep sedge]

Thx

[coarse sigil]

you're going to die

dont bite more than what you can chew

its going to hurt you more than benefit yo

[cunning perch]

@heavy drum atio if you feel like you can handle that sort of courseload go for it. I'm doing physics 1 and bio (along with a few other aps) in the same year, and it's not too bad. I think chem and bio would be a harder combo though. what are you planning on taking outside of sciences? If the rest of your coursework is rigorous then you might want to consider splitting them across 2 years.

[barren chasm]

when should i apply to college?? (im a junior becoming a senior in august)

[solemn hamlet]

November - December this year

[verbal jackal]

what courses shoud i take in grade 11 to enter a university (ideally waterloo) cs course

[undone grove]

What would be another class to do? I plan to do two of those.

[cunning perch]

@barren chasm Depending on your senior courseload and how many/which schools you're interested in applying to, you can log into the CommonApp and start learning about which schools you're applying to as early as this summer. Idk I just know that a bunch of my due dates were in November, December, and January, which led to a lot of procrastination and such. Submitting college applications along with a heavy senior courseload can be difficult, so you might want to consider starting on your applications this summer.

[heavy drum]

Apush, ap lang

Trig

And other normal classes

[halcyon tulip]

For 9th grade, I have six course planned out English 9 Honors, Math 2 H, Biomed H, P.E, Global Studies/Health, and Spanish 1. For my seventh period I am planning on finishing the performing arts requirement and should I take Guitar

[grim wind]

How can I take AP courses to earn credits beyond the traditional classroom setting? My school does not offer Calculus BC

[open gale]

Rip my school goes all the way to diff equation

[full tinsel]

Some organizations offer APs online

Depending on the AP u can also self study

[grim wind]

But do they count as high school credit?

I want it for the class, not for the exam score

[full tinsel]

No I don't think so

[barren chasm]

oh dang thats much earlier than i thought

[full tinsel]

How can I self study APWH

[open gale]

Im a freshmen going in to 10th grade or sophomore. These are the classes I chose. Ignore the "prerequisites not met" it is a glitch and i have met them.

[cunning perch]

@barren chasm again it depends a lot on the classes you take as a senior and the colleges you plan to apply to. If you have a full rigorous schedule, or you're applying to UCs/schools with a low acceptance rate, it's better to start sooner rather than later. If you're taking a lighter courseload, or you're applying to a state school/community college, it's okay to wait a bit longer. Idk but I had a full schedule with APs and college courses, and that + scholarships + college apps REALLY sucked, especially in December and such.

[solemn hamlet]

You should be ready to submit them in November and December 🤔

[signal horizon]

hey, I am in grade 9 and in the IB syllabus where the choice I make next year pretty much decides my career but I am not sure what to choose. I need to choose 2 out of 3 sciences and 2 out of 5 arts (PHE, VA, Drama, Design and Music). Any advice on how to choose?

[cunning perch]

Do any of the courses pique your interest? I don't know a ton about IB

[wanton stream]

whats a good math course to take after ap calc bc?

[cunning perch]

@wanton stream multivariable or vector calculus is what I took after ab (my school doesn't have bc). with bc credit you'll probably get more out of it than i did

[solemn hamlet]

Fully depends on what u've got at ur school

[wanton stream]

so in my hs

well in the hs i will be going into

its not called actually calc bc

its just calc c/multi var calc

[solemn hamlet]

So is it even ap?

[cunning perch]

ah

[wanton stream]

yes

it counts for ap calc bc

youd take that ap exam for that class

[cunning perch]

if you've already done infinite series and matrix algebra, you can take differential equations, linear algebra, etc maybe? there's no ap exam for just calc 3

[wanton stream]

my options would be basically

Discrete Mathematics, Business Calculus, Linear Algebra or Differential Equations

[solemn hamlet]

Ok makes sense

[solemn hamlet]

What major do u wanna do btw

[cunning perch]

I don't have experience with linear algebra but I'd probably take that or diff eq. if you're interested in engineering. I know almost nothing about business calc or discrete math so idk

[patent geyser]

does anyone here have experience with gcse or igcse

i’m in year 9 rn (grade 8) and i just chose my gcses which are history, religious studies, french and drama

but i don’t know if they were good choices

[wanton stream]

as of right now I don't know

[wanton stream]

i see ok thx

[charred idol]

Is 16 APs too many?

My school dosent offer honors, IB, or dual enrollment

[plucky iris]

yes

[hollow shard]

nah

just try to spread it out though

dont' be taking 6 aps in one year 💀

[young pasture]

Is A levels global perspectives more highly valued while applying for colleges or A levels in critical thinking

[serene isle]

What do you mean?

[serene isle]

There are no good or bad choices, it all depends on your career and what you want really.

[opal talon]

If I have to be honest both are kinda bad subjects

[serene isle]

So if you want to be an engineer, computer science and ict would be more suited, however if you want to be an engineer and choose drama, then it's self explanatory.

[opal talon]

Some unis/colleges specifically say they don't accept those

[serene isle]

Wait

Those are a level courses?

[opal talon]

Yep

[serene isle]

I didn't know they existed tbh.

Lol

[opal talon]

They won't take you anywhere so doesn't really matter lol

It's just wasting one subject slot

[serene isle]

I'm going into O levels next year

Any tips?

[opal talon]

O levels? Are those a thing or did you mean A levels

Cause otherwise I have no idea what they are

[serene isle]

Gcse

They are also called o level

General Certificate of Secondary School

Lol

[opal talon]

Oh I didn't they were also called that

Tbh I have no specific tip

Other than the general

Slacking will cost you

[serene isle]

Alr thanks

[opal talon]

At my school where I did mine most people failed

[serene isle]

Oh

Thanks for the advice

[young pasture]

nah man im taking it as an extra subject like as a fourth subject so im not wasting my subject slots😭 im confused bout which ones less useless lmfao

[serene isle]

What do they even teach?

[opal talon]

I'd say global perspective is more broad but harder than critical thinking (not like it's a objectively hard subject to begin with) so ig that

But remember that most places will completely disregard those subjects which might make your time and effort vane

[young pasture]

global perspectives in a levels requires a shit ton of writing like around 10k words for the reports n shit and the theshold for that is higher too. I mean if both are uselss i thimk i should go for the easier one? what do u think

[opal talon]

Yeah definitely if I had to pick one of those which I knew are likely to be ignored by most places I apply I'd go for the easy one so that I can have a higher chance of having solid grades in other subjects,you wouldn't want to put too much effort so that your other subjects suffer

Already having 4 subjects takes away lots of free periods

The last subject being the hard would be even more stressful and give you less time overall for studying

(lots of students regret picking 4 in their second year)

However you must remember that you can back out of any subject in case it was too much

Some schools might try to dissuade you but it is a option,just don't do it right before or during exam period

[weary atlas]

What do want to pursue later on?

[obsidian swallow]

should i self study calc bc if i have a strong understanding of ab

[lone lion]

why do u wanna self study calc bc

💀

[solemn hamlet]

The.. credit?

[lone lion]

no shit really

i dont think thats my point 😭

[solemn hamlet]

No like if they don't have BC at their school 💀

[lone lion]

they aint mention that

🤷‍♂️

[full tinsel]

Bruh

[rough ledge]

hello

[solemn hamlet]

🤔🤔

[lapis island]

Will an anatomy college class be very difficult without ever taking biology (last time i did bio was 8th grade) or will I be able to survive? is bio something really needed?

[worldly flume]

nah you’ll be fine it might be challenging but definitely not very difficult

[solemn hamlet]

Depends on your school

Does the class go over basic required bio or does it expect bio knowledge

[lapis island]

ty do u have any insight on physiology class as well?

[lapis island]

oh yea i should prob check that ty

[worldly flume]

kinda i look class similar to A&P and its not that bad w/o knowing bio, but knowing it would definitely help but its not necessary

[solemn hamlet]

Again, it can vary a lot between schools 🤔

[worldly flume]

thats also very true but im speaking from my experience here

[cinder gorge]

I'm curious about what classes I should do if I'm planning to attend or attempt to enroll in an Ivy school, these are my current classes: Honors Science, Honors U.S History, Health, Writing Strategies, Honors L.A, Spanish 1, Algebra 1 Honors, Band ( Geometry over Summer ). Any other advice, please?

[low sigil]

Heyy!! Il going into 8th grade and need to pick subs for igcses. I had some questions regarding that.

1. If I'm aiming for an ivy league university how many subs should I take?
2. Suppose i hv quite a lot of subs so is it going to be ok to give them in two sittings?
3. When it come to universities does the exam board u gave ur igcses from matter i.e. I'm from edexcel and I keep hearing ppl saying things like cambridge is more standard and it has a higher acceptance rate in uni compared to edexcel. So I'm considering if I should switch to cambridge or not.

[solemn hamlet]

Number of subjects doesn't matter

And board doesn't either

[solemn hamlet]

1. If you take the normal amount of subjects and get good grades, you'll be fine, with high grades ECs and essays matter more for ivies.
2. Yes they won't care, unless you do them in two schools, they only accept one school, but if it's two sittings through the same school it doesn't matter
3. No

[obsidian swallow]

should i self study calc bc if i have a strong understanding of ab and my school doesnt offer bc

[solemn hamlet]

Yes

[low sigil]

Ty veryy much

U rlly r the most helpful!!

[obsidian swallow]

Alr thanks

[gentle crescent]

Hi anybody here doing a bsc nautical science course?

[tender wyvern]

Should I self study apes and ap micro Econ for 10th grade

And take the ap precalc exam (im taking normal precalc)

[solemn hamlet]

AP precalc exam is useless

Noone cares about the credit

It's a waste of time

[tender wyvern]

Just wanna take to boost cumulative ap exam score

[solemn hamlet]

Do you plan to take any elective APs

[solemn hamlet]

What

Who cares about that

Colleges definitely don't

[tender wyvern]

Stats, seminar, world, and music theory are my chosen APs to take in school

[solemn hamlet]

Ok, intended major?

[tender wyvern]

Idk maybe comp sci but I might change

I’m taking csp this year, school doesn’t offer csa

[solemn hamlet]

Then no, you alr have enough elective credits

[solemn hamlet]

Self study for that CSA exam if ur gonna

[tender wyvern]

I wanna max out

[solemn hamlet]

CSP credit doesn't matter

[tender wyvern]

Ik

[solemn hamlet]

Why?

What'll it give u

[tender wyvern]

Just bc

Academic validation

[solemn hamlet]

Wasting time and money just BC?

🤔

[tender wyvern]

Wait what were in the same grade what the hell

[solemn hamlet]

🤔

[tender wyvern]

100 bucks ain’t that much tbh

[solemn hamlet]

If you're okay wasting 100 bucks, give me another 100 🤨

[tender wyvern]

Nah

[solemn hamlet]

Yeah that's what I thought

Collegeboard definitely doesn't need ur 100 🤔

If u want academic validation, how many DE courses ru taking

[tender wyvern]

Just 1 in 12th grade for mutlivar calc

DE is good but it’s just significantly more expensive than APs

[solemn hamlet]

Where ru taking the de 💀

[tender wyvern]

Idk yet

[solemn hamlet]

Does ur school not allow u to do it at a cc

[tender wyvern]

Bc it’s in 12th

[solemn hamlet]

Then why is it so expensive 🤔

[tender wyvern]

No people do it tho

Idk

[solemn hamlet]

And why can't I take some earlier 🤔

[tender wyvern]

It’s like a few hundred to a thousand maybe

[solemn hamlet]

Do you see the reason why someone in the same grade can give you advice now

I don't think he sees it 🤔

[tender wyvern]

Huh

I’m confused

[solemn hamlet]

@tepid fern

[neat compass]

do i take any ap reach aheads for going into grade 10?

[unreal badger]

is self studying ap micro and macro worth it if im not planning to major in anything related to finance

my thinking is that it will look good on applications but idk if it really matters

[cinder gorge]

Im planning on taking the following aps: world history, stats, apes, psych, lang, calc ab, calc bc, bio, chem, us history, lit, gov, and econ, what de classes should I take at my community college during summer?

[plucky iris]

as far as my friends who did AP macro and micro it didn’t give them an egde at all

[sick umbra]

omg this is literally me but like honestly if I dont get like 5s on them Ik its stupid to say but like I feel like there isnt any point but Im prob going to do these too

[sand ridge]

I’m not planning on taking any AP’s until my junior year because I am taking other classes that are prerequisites to classes that are good extracurriculars. Would this hurt my chances of getting into a school like USC? (Planning on taking 2-3 AP’s in total)

[tender wyvern]

Oh hey water

[unreal badger]

yo

[pulsar cove]

Hey people is AP World history hard? I’m thinking of taking it in sophomore year, but all my friends are telling me not to because it’s just not worth the college credit. Any thoughts?

[young pasture]

hmm makes sense. thankyou sm for the help

[tender wyvern]

Dude just take it lol

[sullen geode]

is taking 6 aps senior year too much?

ap physics 1, ap calc ab, ap csp(might drop this, alrdy took csa), ap psych, ap micro, ap latin

[tender wyvern]

No this good just take something instead of ap csp

And do BC

Calc

[sullen geode]

like what?

i already exhausted my schools curriculum for cs except for ap csp

i might just completely drop it and work on an independent project with my teacher

[lone lion]

bros gonna cook

[lone lion]

let him take what he wants bro

💀

also u dont have to do calc bc

[solemn hamlet]

CSP is a free ap, take it

[solemn hamlet]

Unless it isn't at your school, make sure to ask

[lone lion]

broorro people gotta stop saying free aps

😭

[tender wyvern]

Well I’m just giving advice lol he doesn’t acc have to follow what I say lol

[lone lion]

ok

[solemn hamlet]

If that's your attitude, don't even try 💀

[lone lion]

womp womp

[tender wyvern]

…

[lone lion]

real

[void plover]

My friend was telling me I could skip alg 2 for precalc is it true?

Like would I have the knowledge to understand w/o alg 2

[sullen geode]

The comeback is real

[sullen geode]

Ik its a free ap, but im not interested at all in it. Ive heard its a joke. Im only considering taking it because i literally have no other options for cs 😔

[sullen geode]

I dont think thats true. I wouldn't try to skip classes just like that. I skipped 2 years of middle school (im a junior at 15) and i almost got fucked math wise and had to take courses over the summer to catch up

Take algebra 2 over the summer for credit. Check with your school if they offer that. If not, im sure you'll be able to arrange something with them

[vernal coral]

Does biology scale high?

In terms of atar

[coarse sigil]

Junior at 15 is wild

[sullen hearth]

hell no. You know you use to be able to go from Algebra 2 to Calculus…

[low fern]

chat what is the hardest and easiest AP class?

the hardest?

[void plover]

ik APUSH is up there

Calc BC too

[abstract gulch]

Ap phys c

[noble dawn]

i think you'll be fine. however, i would try to take as many APs as possible that your school offers. you want to take more APs than others if you want to get into a competitive school and shows that you're able to handle college-level classes (that's what people have been telling me) 😊

[slate garden]

taking 3 of those this year

[sand ridge]

Tysmmmm I’ll take note of that

[slate garden]

if you want to get into a top school take as many as you can

everyone has a different situation

[sand ridge]

So having more passion for your extracurriculars instead of as many AP’s as possible?

[noble dawn]

oh

yes

thats better

[sand ridge]

Oh ok

Tyyy

[slate garden]

both

[noble dawn]

just take more than 2-3 APs

i would suggest 4 or 5

[slate garden]

showing depth in extracurriculars and rigorous courseload is a ticket to the top

[noble dawn]

in span of your junior year and senior year

yeah

you can handle both

[sand ridge]

2 for each year

[slate garden]

anywhere from like

10-15

in all 4 years

is great

[sand ridge]

Damn I ain’t doing 10 AP’s

[slate garden]

your choice

[noble dawn]

i think thats good

[sand ridge]

👍

[noble dawn]

depends what your strengths are as well

and what you wanna major in

[sand ridge]

The easier AP’s are like psychology and apes?

[slate garden]

i wouldn't say that

[noble dawn]

yes

[sand ridge]

Ohhh

[noble dawn]

psych is mainly memorization

idk abt apes

you should watch his video

[slate garden]

it reflects on your transcript, at worst a B in an AP is better than an A in a regular class but a C is very harmful to a college app and a transcript

• class grades are dependent on the teacher as well

some teachers offer a ton of ec

while others make their tests insanely hard

[noble dawn]

mahad talked about his APs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFWVqxZe59A&t=565s

[slate garden]

exam score is standardized

and is what really matters

if you choose to enroll in an ap

I know several people who pay the $100 exam fee, work hard all year, get lazy in april and don't do well on the exam

no point in taking the class if you're going to do that

15 years of work experience for an entry level job

[noble dawn]

well cory said he wants to go to usc 🤷‍♀️

idk if that changes the convo lol

[slate garden]

usc is like

top 30?

right

I think

[noble dawn]

12%

[slate garden]

12%

yeah

so like tier 2

[noble dawn]

its slightly easier than harvard obviously

[slate garden]

tier 1 being all the 5-8 percenters

i'm happy the sat requirement is returning

yeah

taking easy aps doesn't help much either

they know what the easy aps are

[sand ridge]

Film production

[noble dawn]

oh

[sand ridge]

Not really any ap’s to help 😭

[slate garden]

and can see right through a portfolio loaded with ap world history, ap psych, ap comp sci principles, apes, etc

[noble dawn]

extracurriculars are good then

[slate garden]

that's cool

what grade are you in

[sand ridge]

So then a good portfolio is much more important than taking more ap’s

[slate garden]

junior?

[sand ridge]

Gotcha

[slate garden]

its just different

for every person

[sand ridge]

Right

[noble dawn]

if it helps ik a senior who got into usc and he's taking ap calc his senior year

thans the only AP

but he's involved with the video production so extracurriculars are good

[slate garden]

i want to major in applied mathematics and go into a stem field so i'm taking ap chemistry, physics c, calc bc, bio, etc to boost the application. for something like film production there aren't rlly many aps for that so in that case its way better to go deep into a few ec's

show impact

[sand ridge]

Kinda reminds me of a senior Ik that fits that exact description

[noble dawn]

oh lol

[sand ridge]

He always talks about how the video production teacher is always complaining

It’s so funny

[lone lion]

u need alg 2 for pre calc

U dont have to take a history class in the future if u do good on the ap exam

do u think ppl take it cause they wanna be historians or some shit 😂

rarely

u need ur gen ed

💀

ok well then dont take it im just saying u can clear those credits

😂😂

Also taking apush shows u can take on challenges

and u can do well in various classes not just 1 or 2

But ur life is ur life do what u want

yeah it does

Apush is extremely rigorous

Bro what

💀

ok then dont take it

why u arguing😂

dont even mention it then

nah

u said it first

still first

😇

cool

[full tinsel]

Woah

[sullen hearth]

True, one major flaw is that you have to pass ONE exam to get the credit, if you fail that no credit. Doesn't matter how well you did in the class, even if you had a 100 no credit and $-100

[raw spindle]

what do u guys think of this schedule going to sophmore year

ap world
spanish III
chemistry
honors algebra 2
marketing communications
honors soph english

[sullen hearth]

ye honors chem is light and spanish

i knew like 0 spanish and still had a rlly good grade in the calss

[raw spindle]

we dont get offered that at our school 😭

verys ad

[sullen hearth]

Oh than its fine

[covert brook]

Hi, I'm a sophomore and I wanted to ask for some admissions advice. You see, I want to be in the film industry as a career in the future, and currently I'm taking my first year of a digital video production class offered here at my school. I'm also currently taking Japanese 2, and they're both only one period. I've received news that both the video class and Japanese 3 are at the same period, which means I can't take both next year. I've already chosen the video class for now because it's what I want to do as a career later on, but I feel as though I don't want to abandon Japanese. Not that I want to improve my transcript, but that I enjoy the class and have a bond with it. It's challenging but I'm definitely engaged in the class. Don't get me wrong I do enjoy my video class too, but I hope you can see where my dilemma is now. So would you rather see that I had 3 years of being in my video class, or only one year in that class but 4 years in Japanese? Sorry for the long paragraph by the way.

[grim wind]

My school does not offer AP Calc BC and AP Stats, both of which I believe are crucial to my success in the computer science major. What can I do now that I can't even get a math credit in my senior year? (I am taking AP Calc AB in my junior year, so there is no harder math class to take in my senior year)

I think I also fell behind compared to my friends in other schools, one of them is taking linear algebra right now and then complex analysis next year, while I just got to Calculus

[solemn hamlet]

Take an AP physics, there is required physics in most cs majors

[solemn hamlet]

Are they in feeders or smth 🤔

[grim wind]

Just AP Physics 1? My friend is currently taking AP Physics C E/M? He told me there were two C branches

[grim wind]

What is feeders

He told me that they bused him to the local high school to take pre-calc in eighth grade or something

He also told me he skipped Physics 1 and 2 and went straight to physics c

[zinc blaze]

what should i do in the summer into 9th grade course wise

[sullen hearth]

yeah take E&M

Not so much mechanics, though y ou could

[solemn hamlet]

What maths ru on

[solemn hamlet]

Yeah either feeder or that

[lone lion]

ap physics c = hell

feeder schools suck bruh

take away from the more qualified

[grim wind]

The fact that he skipped 1 and 2 😂

[lone lion]

💀

what the 🤓 ☝️

[solemn hamlet]

No, that's just an opportunity cost for you not attending

[lone lion]

thanks for the economics reference 🤓

[grim wind]

Anyone could have been in his position

He had a really good educational environment

[lone lion]

智商很高

[solemn hamlet]

[grim wind]

I am also Chinese 😂

[lone lion]

不要说英文

[grim wind]

We Chinese are supposed to be high IQ or our mothers will whip us 😭

[solemn hamlet]

If you don't speak English, how did u understand the emoji

[solemn hamlet]

I'm asian too and I am so

[fossil spade]

Does anyone know how to study for a Chinese test

I’m trying to not fail

[wraith scarab]

can i still get into competitive colleges if i take 2 years of 2 languages (2 years french and 2 years spanish)?

[lone lion]

womp womp

[lone lion]

like what

"Chinese test"

yap more

[solemn hamlet]

Yes

[lone lion]

what tst

[solemn hamlet]

There's stuff that's way more

[fossil spade]

Veichals school and work

[wraith scarab]

thanks! i got a C- in french 2 and i dont want to continue the language, but still want to fulfill the language requirement

[solemn hamlet]

Is it plausible that you are asian?!

[fossil spade]

Like 每天 公共汽车

[fossil spade]

nope middle eastern!

[solemn hamlet]

🤔🧐😞😔

[fossil spade]

I keep messing up on tone marks

and idk how to memeorize them

[full tinsel]

Do DE courses usually boost high school GPAs?

[solemn hamlet]

It might work but you'd be unable to take the language ap so thats an opportunity cost

[solemn hamlet]

DE is usually taken the same as APs

5.0 wgpa

[full tinsel]

Alr

[lone lion]

lol for vocab tests i just wing it

[grim wind]

isnt middle east southwestern Asia?

[fossil spade]

yea

Pretty much

[grim wind]

so ur still asian

[wraith scarab]

the college i want to go to doesn’t require any foreign language credits at least for engineering

[lone lion]

its still better

[wraith scarab]

kinda pointless to take an ap for no credit im only doing the 2 years of 2 languages for an honors diploma

[lone lion]

then just dont take the ap

[solemn hamlet]

Weighted gpa

[wraith scarab]

yea thats what im doing lol

[solemn hamlet]

Do the course not the exam then

[lone lion]

screw the course

[wraith scarab]

i can take an extra ap math or science class instead

[lone lion]

yea

[solemn hamlet]

Also lang credits can be used as general ed electives can't they

[lone lion]

do clac and stats

calc

!

[solemn hamlet]

No

[lone lion]

yes

[solemn hamlet]

Likei

[lone lion]

@wraith scarab do calc and stats trust

[solemn hamlet]

If u took four years of the language

U could take an AP language course instead of the final one

[wraith scarab]

im doing honors precalc/trig and ap stats next year

[lone lion]

good for u

!

[wraith scarab]

my school only offers ap spanish though, so its a little too late

[full tinsel]

How hard AP Music Theory

For asian who play piano for ~10 years

[solemn hamlet]

Oh rip then

[solemn hamlet]

Very very hard

No but seriously, it depends between schools

[wraith scarab]

my fault for choosing french

also depends if you would enjoy the class too

[full tinsel]

Our AP Music Theory teqcher is very chill

[solemn hamlet]

AP music theory the ap exam is probably crammable

[full tinsel]

But I'm probably gonna have to prep outside of schooltime

[solemn hamlet]

Then dew it

[solemn hamlet]

What 🤔

[full tinsel]

Yea it's on my schedule

[solemn hamlet]

Does ap music theory have practical music too 😭🤔

[solemn hamlet]

Ur parents are still forcing u to play piano

🪦

[full tinsel]

Not anyone

[solemn hamlet]

Then you enjoy it!?

[full tinsel]

But I play synth in Indoor Percussion

Ye

[solemn hamlet]

Rip your unique identity

[full tinsel]

The only thing I'm not looking forward to is the singing portion, and the guess the note portion

[tender wyvern]

Wait since when was singing a part of ap music theory

I’m taking it next year 💀🙏

[coarse sigil]

how easy is ap geo

I plan to self study it

next year

[zinc blaze]

geometry

[coarse sigil]

ap hum geo

[coarse sigil]

same shit

[dusky seal]

please help. really debating if i want to take AP lang next year or not, i like writing, but i hear its a lot too, and im wondering if its also good for SAT please? my other option would be to just take honors english since we don't have DE or AP (im going into my junior year next year!)

[golden bronze]

im taking:
Ap ab/bc calculus
Ap Statistics
Ap Physics 1
Dual Ushistory fisrst sem, second semester English
Dual Computer science 1301, second semester 1331
Band

am i cooked

[dusky seal]

do you have good time management and motivation?

do you tihnk you can handle it?

think*

[golden bronze]

no

im studing for all my ap tests the night before

i did precalc on monday

morning

[dusky seal]

hmmm

i am taking similar classes

next year

but this is just if i was in your shoes

i would get better time management

and you're gonna have to work

because sophmore year has already killed me enough

but now next year YAY

[golden bronze]

yay.

[dusky seal]

i mean im also doing some electives like art

to make me not too stressed

also since i like art

electives that genuinely interest you as hobbies and that will be good

im no professional though

just imo

if you can fit them

like some easy fun electives to balance things out

yeah

[dusky seal]

i really need answers pls y'all im begging. ;,)

[golden bronze]

yeah do it

if u good at lit rn and working skills u good

jus dont procrastinate

everything else in lang is light

its just that u gotta be able to yap a lot

[dusky seal]

we didn't get to take lit in 10th grade.. we only get academic and honors

[dusky seal]

i see

i love yapping

[golden bronze]

and write an entrie essays in a short time

[dusky seal]

oof

im ok at that

just have to think ahead

then

[golden bronze]

yeah thats whatvi ment

like literature

[dusky seal]

ok

[golden bronze]

or english

[dusky seal]

im in honors lol

currently

[golden bronze]

yeah then ur fine

[dusky seal]

but i wasnt reccomended for lang ebcause of the pressure..

;((

[golden bronze]

when i took it last year it was a but hard but u get used tonit

[dusky seal]

ohh oki

hardest thing

??

[dusky seal]

WHA YOU GET TO TAKE IT AS A FRESHMAN?!

we can't take aps as freshman :((

freshmen*

atleast my school

[golden bronze]

no lmao

it was not recommended whatsoever

i took courses a year before like skipping a grade

but for lit

and took one over summer

[dusky seal]

dang

[golden bronze]

to teke ap lang

[dusky seal]

so cool

[golden bronze]

yeah very

[dusky seal]

im taking ab calc, DE ISR (independent science research, APUSH, and prob lang for my core classes

im scared

maybe i just gotta prep tho! :DDDD

[golden bronze]

lmao gl

[dusky seal]

you too!

[golden bronze]

ima have to take ab bc

in one year

[dusky seal]

you're doing wayyy harder stuff than i am

[golden bronze]

nah bru its p light

[dusky seal]

bro is a mathmatician

[golden bronze]

jus physics is gonna be hell ig

[golden bronze]

nah im not trynna be its jus easy for me sum times

[dusky seal]

true

it can be when you grasp concepts well

and how problems work

atleast for me thats how i can find math easy

when i understand

and can work it

into the problem

which i need to work on more

because stats and trig are kinda hard for me concept wise

...

[golden bronze]

yeah ti hate stats for sum reason

like geometric sequences are so annoying

[dusky seal]

yeah.

i hate them lol they are weird

and then i had to learn how to do sequences on a calculator and i got all mixed up ;,)

like i understood sequences at first

but then i just kind of fell off

[golden bronze]

lmao yeah i gotta lock in for calc ima grind them

[dusky seal]

me too fr

also i hear our calc teacher is bad

like she cries when people don't do the homework

and shes getting rid of the curve

if not most of it all of it

[old rain]

AP Lang vs AP Lit. Which should I take senior year next year?

[pliant thunder]

I think AP lang would be more useful in the long run (if it’s a common one) but if you’re pursuing a career in English do AP Lit. Otherwise, just follow what your heart says my guy

[golden bronze]

oh hell nah calc with no curve

everyones getting a 30

[dusky seal]

fr like so scared

my alg ii trig and math analysis skills gotta be SOLID

but its more than that

[old rain]

Are they weighted similar?

[solemn hamlet]

Yes

[old rain]

What are the most important differences I should know about the two?

[coral crane]

ap lit is considered to be harder

ap lit focuses on reading stuff more

altho it has quiet a big chunk of writing

[old rain]

And the test structure?

[pliant thunder]

I’m only a sophomore, so I would ask either another senior here or your guidance counselor/teacher for that kind of information.

[old rain]

Alr

Thx for the help

[worldly flume]

Lang fs

[old rain]

[void plover]

Are there any courses I should take b4 chem?

[cerulean zinc]

Guys help. Should I continue band or take AP Statistics next year as a sophomore. (I only need one more math credit to graduate, id be acquiring three math credits next yr if I take AP Statistics + in magnet school for entirety of hs)

[void plover]

stay in band, you can take stats whenever but it'll be hard to join back band after a year off

[cerulean zinc]

Would aerospace engineering count?

Alr!

I couldn't agree more lol

[void plover]

How many AP courses do yall think i could handle without having a mental breakdown as a sophomore

[cerulean zinc]

Three max imo

[proper snow]

Chat should I take IB American History

[void plover]

so would APHG, AP Euro, and AP Chem be good?

[cerulean zinc]

Yep, but keep in mind that AP Euro and AP Chem are one of the harder APs

[void plover]

ooooh ok

is there a science class that would help with chem or nah

[cerulean zinc]

Well in my school we have to take a normal bio and chem class before we take AP Chem

Do that might help

So*

[void plover]

Im probably wrong but wouldn't it be a waste of time to take chem twice

[cerulean zinc]

Not rly, bc chem honors is basics and foundations and then AP Chem is building on it and going into deeper and harder topics

[void plover]

alr

[cerulean zinc]

AP European history

[sudden badge]

I am going to be a freshman in high school in August and I am taking an AP class.

[cerulean zinc]

Bro howw

[sudden badge]

It’s AP Comp Sci Principles

[cerulean zinc]

Well which one?

Ahh we aren't allowed to take that till sophomore

We can only take comp math

[sturdy tendon]

Upcoming 9th Grader, was wondering what AP classes, if any should I take. Planning on taking Spanish 1, if I follow the linear line I'll be taking Algebra 2 this year, along with World Geography, Biology, and Pre AP English 1, haven't decided on an elective yet, but taking Health and Proffessional Communications just to get my required out the way and have more room next year.

Any and all tips are welcome

[golden bronze]

ehats ap english 1

[golden bronze]

it looks good take aps based ok what u wanna mahor in

like if u goin in med plan on taking things like ap bio sum time in ur hs carrer

dont limit ur courses to only ur major

rho

if u doing cs get a jump on math and cs courses like ap csp or smth

i only know bout cs so i would recommend doing harder courses cause its getting rly competitive

yeah

[sturdy tendon]

I took basic computer principles this year but I do have an interest in it
Still trying to decide on my career but I know it will be related to aerospace
Been my dream for years and hoping to make it happen

[golden bronze]

me? yeah

[golden bronze]

thats good try exploring options

me for example i heard bout software dev and tried it for a year

that shi was ass

so i tried ai and rly liked it

so spend a year or less trying to exapnd ur knowledge on cs pathways outside of school

then in the next year do things liek robotics, tsa (drone comps), or model roketing competitions

also get into research projects as early as possible and send these emails to community colleges for s position in their labs or smth

[sturdy tendon]

Question for whoever sees this, is it possible to get a head start or even completely do an AP Class online besides the exam during the summer?

[void plover]

I took aphg first semester (had to drop due to a move) but it was really easy so if u want that much of an edge on everyone else i'd reccomend it one of the easier ap's

over 50% pass rate and that includes the people who don't know what they're doing so you'd probably find it easy

[void plover]

are calc ab and bc meant to be either/or or is it one or the other

[sudden badge]

Do any of you think that 4 Honors and an AP is a bit much for Freshman Year?

[void plover]

nah thats what i had

honors aren't noticably harder than regular classes imo

what AP are you planning to take

[sudden badge]

Comp Sci Principles

[grim wind]

you take both

[glacial onyx]

Some schools make you take ab before bc which is what I did and it works well but some people here also have just skipped straight to bc

[tame pawn]

AP Human Geography has the highest rate of 1s at ~30% as well

[coarse sigil]

probably becasue of freshmans

just my theory tho

[tame pawn]

probably

[undone hill]

BC is just AB but extra content.

2 additional units

[undone hill]

if i did that Calculus would've been such a breeze

[muted grail]

what APs would you guys recommend for self-studying?

[coral crane]

u take either ab or bc, however if u take bc, ab is in bc, but bc has some topics that are a different ballgame

[coral crane]

biology

[void plover]

Yeah but so many freshmen that have no idea what's going on take the class it barely counts

Should I take ap lit and if I do what year

[jolly granite]

Bio or comp sci P

[weary dust]

Current sophomore going to junior year these are the classes I’m taking - AP Gov, AP Calc BC, AP Lang, AP CSA, AP Physics C Mechanics, and choir

I have one more class open what should I take?

I have already talked AP Stats and AP Chem this year

[jolly granite]

Multivariable

[weary dust]

Have to take calc bc first

[warped sinew]

I recomend AP chem since its more usefull in more decgrees if your going into stem and it helps with other subjects since there is alot of overlap between the sciences and its exam is easier

while stats exam people stuggl with it more since the content is soo diffrent

look up the course content first on khan academy first and see if you are interested in the content

[void plover]

hey I'm trying to lay out the rest of my schedule so Ik what to expect and here's what I have so far, can yall tell me what to change and help fill in some blanks

9: H Bio, H World History, H Geom, English I, Band

10: H Chem, H Alg 2, H English II, Band, APHG, Fitness

11: AP Chem, AP Precalc, H English III, AP Euro, Band

12: AP Physics 1, AP Lit, APUSH, Band

I've got a lot of gaps and senior year looks a little much once there's 8 classes if anyone has any recommendations for the gaps and maybe swaps that'd be great

[warped sinew]

i would swap APHG with AP euro since there is more overlap with world history

what do you mean about the part in senoir year

[void plover]

Cuz APUSH and Lit are both hard classes and I assume physics is too, so adding 5 classes onto that would be interesting

Also I took a semester of APHG so Ik units 1-3 but I had to move over Christmas so I don't have the credit so I thought it'd be an easy A since Ik almost half of it

[cerulean zinc]

U could take AP Seminar

[void plover]

What's that

[proper snow]

Chat next year, should I take IB Chem, IB English, IB American History, and Algebra II Honors? I can't take any AP until senior other than AP Lit

[cerulean zinc]

It's basically a writing course, u write research based essays (maybe reports), present ur idea/product

[dire parcel]

Do you guys recommend taking a study hall if your taking all AP classes

[unreal field]

what else can you do

[weary dust]

Sorry if my message was confusing I already took AP chem and AP stats this year

U could take a class related to ur major

[dire parcel]

Curently Im signed up for
AP physics,
AP Calc BC,
CCP english,
CCP psych,
PC council (no credits),
and a Career technical program (3 periods long)

im considering dropping the CTE to take 2 AP classes and a study hall

.
Do you think its beneficial in staying in a CTE that I probably wont use in the future when i could get more college credits. Im really torn between dropping it and not

[void plover]

3 periods is kinda crazy ngl

you might get burnt out on it quickly

Most of the class is just watching videos or doing nothing, theres no reason the class needs to be 3 periods long

[void plover]

If its the college credit ur after you could do choir and self study AP Sem

[buoyant vapor]

[buoyant vapor]
