<p>Hi!~
I go to a private school in Conneticut, and I became a junior this september. My Academic Dean does not let me take AP US history. I studied US history and other subjects all summer, but he says "NO." It really ****es off... I don't know what to do. I got B- last year on honors history, but my teacher did not teach anything....</p>

<p>I am thinking about self-studying other subjects such as World History and European History, so my college application looks good (if i get a good score)... What are good subjects to self-study for a person who loves to read a lot? Give me your advices.... Thanks.</p>

<p>A B- last year and the teacher did nothing? Didn't you have a textbook you could read? </p>

<p>Maybe your Ac Dean is trying to do you a favor? A crappy grade in an AP isn't more acceptable to colleges because it's an AP class.</p>

<p>Get your parents to donate tons of money to the school. =P</p>

<p>But you could always self-study it, as you were saying, or abandon the pursuit and self-study English or something.</p>
