<p>Can anyone please help me decide on which AP courses I should take next year? I've been studying Chemistry, Physics, Biology and Calculus since 9th Grade and have a GPA of 3.63. I've always loved Bio and wanted to focus on that, but suddenly as a Junior, my interests are fading and I have no idea why. </p>
<p>I wish to take two more AP classes along with AP Calculus. Please tell me about AP US History, AP Environmental Science and AP Psychology along with the AP Science classes. I've only taken a standard US History class and a college-level Introduction to Psychology class.</p>
<p>Questions Comments Concerns.
My mind is reeling with indecisiveness and it's taking up a lot of my time, I hope a discussion here can at least to an extent give me a direction.</p>
<p>Thank you.</p>
<p>AP US History- lots of homework…time consuming, but I thought it was very interesting and is one of my favorite classes I’ve ever taken throughout HS.</p>
<p>AP Psych- self-studied that this year…very easy, all memorization of terms, so if you can memorize a lot of definitions, you’re fine.</p>
<p>APUSH is an absolute beast. Unless you are good with history, or are thoroughly interested in USH, you’ll find it a difficult one. I’ve scored 5s on 3 of my AP exams, took 7 last month, and am expecting to get at least another 4-5 5s, and I scored a 2 on the APUSH exam. Although, it probably doesn’t help that I suck at history and like it as a subject but not as a class.</p>
<p>Environmental science and psychology are among the easiest APs that are offered. If you ever want to self-study an AP, those two will be your top picks.</p>
<p>AP Physics has two parts: a B and C. B is manageable for most, but C is for the best of the physics B students. It’s still tough, and won’t be easy unless physics is your thing, but it’s more general knowledge than C.</p>
<p>AP Biology is heavy, heavy memorization. You decide if that’s easy or hard.</p>
<p>AP Chemistry can go either way. About 60% of the material is superbly easy. But a lot of the other 40% is just downright painful. I can’t say it’s impossible, but it’s absolutely nowhere near easy. You’ll need a good teacher for this one, so be sure to check or ask around for that information.</p>
