AP Biology, AP Chemistry, and Regular Physics

<p>I want to take all of these in the same year. Is this okay? Or is it bad idea?</p>

<p>Yeah, that’s perfectly fine. You shouldn’t have any problems of the hair-ripping variety.</p>

<p>I’m taking AP Biology and Regular Physics right now and it’s not so bad. AP Bio is pretty difficult, though, but that just might be me since I’m taking 2 other AP classes right now.</p>

<p>My best friend is taking AP Bio and Physics at the same time and she isn’t having any trouble at all - you should be fine - AP Bio is a lot of memorization!</p>

<p>Don’t take AP Chem with anything else.
AP Bio and Physics is doable</p>

<p>It’s perfectly fine to take AP Chem with AP Bio and regular physics. It’s a good balance. Chemistry and physics are very math orientated while biology isn’t.</p>

<p>Yeah it’s fine and probably easily manageable. AP Bio is honestly just reading a chapter every few days and studying for tests/quizzes. AP Chem all depends on you and how easily you understand what is covered in class. Adding regular physics to the mix shouldn’t make much of a difference if you’re already motivated enough to take AP Bio and AP Chem in the same year.</p>

<p>If you’re good at science and math and think you can handle it–go ahead. It just depends on you an your school; at my school ap physics is a pretty bs ap (we watch movies and work in groups for everything) , but at everyone else’s school I’ve heard it’s pretty insane</p>

<p>It’s going to be really hard, AP Chemistry gets a whole lot harder throughout the year and physics is just difficult to understand the math behind the concepts and AP Biology is overwhelming. I’m having a hard time with just AP Biology and AP Chemistry. I took a physics class freshman year, and it was really difficult, physics isn’t a joke. I think you should only do two science classes. Take your time, don’t rush things.</p>

<p>depends on how hard the teachers are, what other classes you are taking, and if they are yearlong or not.</p>

<p>I just don’t want to discourage the OP. I’ll describe my experience. I’m taking AP Chemsitry, AP Physics B, and AP Calc BC. We sort of have the same level of difficulty. </p>

<p>AP Chemistry - If you completely understand stoichiometry, how the periodic table, works, and have no problem doing simple algebra; take this class. Currrently we’re learning about thermochemistry. It’s pretty straightforward. Heat goes in…heat goes out. You just need to focus. Hopefully your class will be doing a large amount of labs. (They’re required by college board to do so.) We have about one lab per week. We’ll be doing a minimum of 40 labs this year. Labs are very important and they make the free response questions a lot easier to understand because you have done the lab. </p>

<p>AP Physics B - If you like puzzles and using one equation to get to another to find another answer; take this class. We go fairly fast, about one chapter every week or every week and half. We have one lab a week. Know your equations. This class will be hard if you don’t know your equations. You can’t do the problems if you don’t know it. You’ll be taking regulars so you won’t be goings as fast and you won’t have to worry about the exam at the end of the year. </p>

<p>AP Bio - I have not taken this class. I’ve heard that it’s a lot of memorization. I have the teacher that teaches AP Bio and she frequently hares what they’re doing. A lot of terms to know. </p>

<p>If you’re good at memorizing, contune with bio. Chemistry and Physics, I must admit, is a lot of math. I know, for a fact, that every night I will have physics and chemistry homework. along with calculus, it’s just an overload of math sometimes.</p>
