Any Rural High Schoolers Out There?

<p>I think my school has 11 AP's, but all AP class sizes are less than ten students. And most students really don't care. They don't take AP seriously.</p>

<p>I don't think theres even 10 people in Bio II and it's not even the AP one this year I don't think. There's 12 people in Spanish IV, but it's not AP either.. It's horrible</p>

<p>NE Oklahoma=Rural schools. My school will offer ONE AP next year (English Lit), and a Pre-AP for the said English class. We have 50-ish people in my grade currently, and it's bound to get smaller.</p>

<p>My town almost had enough people for each day of the year in the 2000 census. That's tiny. </p>

<p>I think that I'm part of a small handful of students that have never taken an Ag class. 4-H? FFA? Not my cup of tea.</p>

<p>I feel extremely out of place at my school.</p>

<p>^That sounds a lot like my situation, though not <em>quite</em> as many students have taken the Ag classes outside of the mandatory 8th grade one. My school has a very good program for that; but I just don't get along well with the teacher.</p>

<p>13 students in my class.</p>

<p>I'm going to guess the avg. ACT score was 18.</p>

<p>My school has no APs, but a few "community college credit" course (Calc and Physics)
Its public and has only 60 kids per grade (average)
We're a good school for most of the people who live there-(kids that don't really need special education, but have a hard time with course work anyway)
For a person like me who wants to go to a selective school, it's hard.
The town has 3500 people, total, and the only career organization in my school is the Future Farmers of America.</p>

<p>My school, a small catholic high school with about 200 students 9-12 in a small town, has no APs and, therefore, experiences insane grade inflation. Although my class of 54 is probably one of the smartest classes ever to come through, we have far too high of grades. The first quarter this year, there 22 out of 54 students had a 4.0 or higher and 51 out of 54 had a 3.0 or higher. It's not that we have a lot of weighted grades either. We have 5 weighted classes. It's just that the teachers give out As without thinking about it. Other than that, I like my school.</p>

<p>My school has ~15 APs... but most of them are jokes. There are about four AP classes that I would say are legitimate (BC Calc, Bio, Chem, and AP US History).
Everyone likes to talk about how good my HS is... but it isn't actually that great. My town is just really rich, so the HS looks pretty. So, we have couches in our cafeteria... but terrible computers that don't print and freeze every second. It's really stupid.</p>

<p>my school offers 4 APs, one honors course. most people think school is a joke. the largest department is the tech ed/shop classes.</p>

<p>av ACT about 19</p>

<p>no NMF for about 6 years</p>
