<p>Considering that 70% of the population at my school is Asian (including me)…</p>
<p>Some AP classes are 90%+ Asian, while others have more White and Mexican. For some reason, many White and Mexicans don’t seem to be motivated to take H/AP classes. In all 4 periods of Pre Calculus Honors, I think there’s only ~10 Mexicans and Whites.</p>
<p>It doesn’t bother me, though, because entrance into H/AP class should be based on achievement, not affirmative action policies.</p>
<p>I doubt Honors classes are based on AA. They recruit for AP classes at my HS.</p>
<p>Mine has mostly girls and all white except for a couple Indians. We don’t have a lot of black kids at my school.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>In what way is it diverse then?</p>
<p>Oh, and 1 Asian. For some reason, my grade doesn’t have very many Asians, but the other grades do.</p>
<p>The classes I’m taking are slightly diverse, some more than others though.
AP English: Mostly white, two black, two hispanic, two asian, about 75% female though
AP US: Again, mostly white, one black, three hispanic, five asian, even gender
AP Calc: My class is all white. The other sections are more diverse though. About 60% female.
AP Psych: Still mostly white, three black, three asian, two hispanic, even gender</p>
<p>I’m not in this class but AP Chem has seven kids. All seven are Asian guys.</p>
<p>This is at a school that is roughly 75% white, 10% black, 10% hispanic, and 5% asian. So basically, AP classes represent the general population, but tend to skew more Asian and more female than average for the school.</p>
<p>Basically everyone in AP classes at my school is either white, Asian, or Indian. However, that pretty much matches the rest of the school. The only huge gender disparity I saw was in AP computer science, where we had one girl. </p>
<p>Although, it’s not like the lack of diversity has really had an effect on anything. All our AP classes run smoothly as far as I know.</p>
<p>There are mainly Asian females in our school’s AP classes.</p>
<p>A lot more females than males.</p>
<p>Asians, asians asians. And white people.</p>
<p>Guess who’s going to be the only black guy in a lot of classes?</p>
<p>
I have black kids in all but one of my other classes. 2 in Honors English, 4 in Health, 2 in Civics, 3 in Chemistry, 8 in Algebra II.</p>
<p>What’s up with the lack of black people in Honors/AP English? I’m black BTW.</p>
<p>
Gender-wise. And different varieties of Asians.</p>
<p>^^</p>
<p>At least in my area, the black people speak illiterate terms that I can’t even understand as a black person. As a race, we generally don’t go above and beyond(Not a black person on CC does that).</p>
<p>I gotta cosign. What’s up with all the remedial classes being filled with black people?</p>
<p>They don’t give a damn. We allow ourselves to fall behind. We succumb to stereotypes.</p>
<p>I try not to but oh well.</p>
<p>Almost all my IB classes are predominantly asian</p>
<p>^ Same. Well, I love asians, and I love diversity.</p>
<p>I love diversity in the form of white boys.</p>
<p>I don’t have a single black person in any of my classes (5 APs + a language), and only 1 Hispanic person (A girl in my APUSH class). My math/science APs tend to be saturated with Asians and the humanities APs are a little more even, 60/40 Asian/White.</p>
