<p>I know a guy that tried taking 15 in one year and pretty much bombed over half of them. Take it for what its worth, but I think its going to be very very tough. There is something called testing fatigue and I think at the point in which you take 16 exams in one year you are going to definitely be feeling it.</p>
<p>well for one thing, the OP isn't taking 16, they are taking 15...because of the fact you can't take 2 Calc exams.</p>
<p>Oh, only 15, not 16. Well, THAT will definitely help.</p>
<p>(Sarcasm.)</p>
<p>Seems to me you've got nothing to lose and lots of $$ to gain, so what the hell; why not give it a shot??</p>
<p>AP State Scholar is not as prestigious as you think; you'll be in college, so who cares?</p>
<p>Turns out I'm only taking 14, so far I've cruised through both Governments ( probably got a 4 and a 3, nothing to brag about but got the money) aced a Stats test, definitely got a 4 or 5 and tomorrow I have calculus. The first week is kind of a tune up of 6 tests building up to 8 tests next week. I'm trying not to exert myself and am just going at a steady pace, so far 3 tests down and 11 to go.</p>
<p>and if there's any confusion i'm getting paid 1500 dollars by our school to pass all of these exams</p>
<p>that's still incredible dude. keep it up!</p>
<p>how do you get paid for passing ap exams??!</p>
<p>It's a grant program</p>
<p>This post is not organized, fair warning:</p>
<p>How was the comparative government exam?</p>
<p>Also, taking the AP Spanish Language exam without taking the course is a tough move, considering most of the material on the exam is a listening portion and you need practice. I don't suppose you're doing this on your own the week of the test?</p>
<p>Are you taking AP Calculus BC and taking the BC exam? My school offers both AP Calculus AB and BC, but both exams are at the same time so you can't take both -- I don't see how you're going to do this.</p>
<p>You said you're in an AP Economics class?
Macroeconomics*
Microeconomics
You have to be in microeconomics if you're taking the macreconomics class. The macroeconomics and microeconomics class are each one semester, respectively. The two combine to form the modern course "AP Economics."</p>
<p>Why take the Environmental Science exam when you can take the Biology exam and get more credit?</p>
<p>I'm guessing you completed a portfolio for AP Studio Art, because its required to get a 2 or more. </p>
<p>Good luck on passing the Physics exams, they're not "a piece of cake," as you're probably thinking.</p>
<p>Something just seems odd about your first post. Are you just trying to brag to us or what? There is no logic behind your post, other than the fact you're flaunting the number of AP exams you're taking. Again, someone said earlier, if you have no interest in the AP course, you're probably not going to get a 4 or 5.</p>
<p>I don't know if anyone else thinks you're sketchy about this all, but we've all proven that you're a dumb ass when it came to buying the AP Calculus exams, AP Economics, and generally just counting.</p>
<p>^^ some school only offer AP Macro and not AP Micro... So it is not comined into AP Econ at every school. I know at my school people need to take Micro at a local CC... I commend him/her for his/her commitment to academics and I really hope he/she does well and get their goal.</p>
<p>Us poor city kids get paid $250 for every three or more we get on AP Tests. Considering with grants we only have to pay $8 per exam anyway that's pretty sweet. Especially if, like me, you're not really poor like they assume all city kids are, you're just not rich enough to afford private school. </p>
<p>I'm pretty sure I got $500 (actually $484) coming my way...sweeeeeet....</p>
<p>Damn I should never have moved out of Philly to the suburbs.</p>
<p>We don't get paid anything for passing. I am on reduced lunch too but we only have one person per school (there's three schools on my campus) that gets a reduced AP price. Mine was $93 per test. It was so hard to pay.</p>
<p>At that rate I would have $3,250 by the end of this year. However, there is the tradeoff that such schools probably are not very good, and so passing would be mildly difficult since most studying would be done by oneself.</p>
<p>Uhh, this seems really unlikely. 14 of them? and 2 hours to learn the class? Sure they may pay for it, but you are going to fail at least some.</p>
<p>$2,000! HAha, I think you have a decent chance to get 3s.</p>
<p>I was curious about that as well. My school doesn't offer ANYTHING in the way of art history so I was considering dual enrolling because I don't know of any meaningful ways to self study. Please explain.</p>
<p>my school covers the cost of the exam
so i pay...nothing</p>
<p>i'm glad i can focus on the exams related to my courses so that i can earn credit
instead of taking a multitude and hoping for a bunch of 3s (at best)</p>
<p>it is nice to not have to chase after grant money</p>
<p>This seems really unlikely, he seems to just be gloating about nothing. This doesn't seem to be true, since most of these take a long time to memorize and learn.</p>
