<p>I am a sophmore in Brooklyn, NY. I am currently taking Chemistry and AP Biology. I just and trying to figure out what I should take next year. I'm not so much concerned with Medical Science (considering that has a reputation of being an easy course), but AP Chemistry and Physics at the same same. First off, did anybody take a high school Medical Science class? If so, how was it (difficulty + tests + memorization)? Also, how hard is AP Chemistry- compared to regular chemistry or even in comparison to AP Biology (in terms of tests, memorization, and difficulty)? Thank you very much!</p>
<p>Hey, I'm from New York too! :) From the suburbs though- about half an hour north of the city, Rockland County. I haven't taken Medical Science, but regarding AP Chem- AP Chem is tough, a lot tougher than AP Bio. I did really well in my AP Bio class, but this year, in AP chem, i'm slipping :P AP Bio is more about memorizing facts, and AP Chem is a bit of synthesizing all of your knowledge</p>
<p>me.
self study chemistry --> 5
take Ap bio in school --> 4</p>
<p>depends on the students=.=</p>
<p>Depends on your school with medical science.
At my school it is particularly easy, lots of vocab memorization, tests were gone over before taken so you knew answers, and studying was minimum about 20 - 30 minutes for a test. Eh I say not worth it, wait till college</p>
<p>Thanks! I have too weigh out my options some more.. Anyone else ever in this situation and can share their experiences?</p>
