<p>These are the only AP classes I'm taking next year, and I wanted to know, how much studying I should put into these classes? Is studying about about 2 hours a night for each class sounds enough?</p>
<p>For Chem you honestly need 30 minutes a night and no more.</p>

<p>^ Really~? The AP Chemistry teacher at my school said about 1hr - 2hr of independent study lol.</p>
<p>Depends on how easily chemistry comes to you.</p>
<p>If it comes easily to you, sounds right. If it doesn’t come as easily, then 1-2 hours sounds right.</p>
<p>eh, i averaged about 35-45 minutes a night and ended up with a five on minimal prep. you should be good! switch into another AP, if you can.</p>
<p>Honestly, I think you should spend an hour everyday for AP Chem because not only there are many things to memorize but also you have to do many practices (especially FRQs).</p>
<p>But of course, it solely depens upon your studying skills.</p>
<p>^ Alright Thanks for the advice.</p>
<p>I say study until you I can comprehend what you are learning at the You may need 30 minutes or 3 hours. Also, it should depend on what else you got to do after school. I don’t like to study at all, so I study as little as possible.</p>
<p>I agree with the last poster. Studying should be finished when you learn the material, but you should always prioritize your time when more important things arise.</p>
<p>That being said, if you have taken a chemistry class before, you will probably find that the first semester will only require 10 minutes a night to review until you reach hybridized orbitals. I suspect you will be studying 30 minutes to an hour when you reach kinetics and equilibrium as these are new concepts not typically discussed in a first-year high school chemistry course.</p>
<p>AP Biology- 45 min. - 1 hr. a day? Of course, it depends on how well you understand, the effort you put into studying, etc.
However, I wouldn’t think that it should take much more.</p>
<p>But then again, with the new Bio format, no one even knows… Oh well! Better to over-prepare than to under-prepare! ^_^</p>
<p>I’ll e-mail the teachers to see what they recommend for their class.</p>
<p>LOL that is a little overkill for bio. Depending on the person,you could probably get away with studying 30 minutes a day 3 days a week.</p>
<p>I had honors bio (which covered genetics thoroughly but nothing else), and then after that two ~15 hour straight bio study sessions the weekend before the exam and still got a 5. xD</p>
<p>This depends a great deal on your interest in the subject and also your studying habits.</p>
<p>Back when I took AP Chem, I never even really did much self-studying outside of class. I caught onto chemistry extremely easily (hence part of why I’m a chemical engineer). So for me, I would just pay attention to the lectures. However, with Biology I wouldn’t be like that. It would be harder for me because I don’t understand it as easily as chemistry.</p>
<p>If it was me, I’d say 30 minutes for Chemistry and 1 hour for Biology a night… but this would probably change a lot.</p>
<p>Best of luck</p>
<p>^ Thank you.</p>
<p>the class is very subject, it is different for every school. Assuming you go to an average school, maybe like 2-3 hours a week for each? FOr the AP exam, it is also somewhat subject, because if u have a good teacher, you don’t really need to study for the exam. I would go on what your teachers recommended, but mostly on how long it took you in Honors Chem and Bio.</p>
<p>Honestly Chemistry is the most demanding AP science test.</p>
<p>Biology = all concept, 0 math
Physics = all math, 0 concept
Chemistry = mix of math & concept
Environmental = joke</p>
<p>^ Lol, Physics is also somewhat concept based I think…, but mostly math.</p>
