Hey everybody, I’m about to enter my junior year of high school this year. I’m a little intimidated by my AP courses, and how likely I am to pass them in conjunction with my other courses. My AP experience isn’t very broad: I took AP Human Geography as a freshman and passed with a 4 (I didn’t put too much work into that class at all,) and I took AP World History last year, and I’m pretty sure I passed, as I studied my butt off and did fairly well in the class itself. I’ve also been an all-honors student up until this point, passing with A’s and the occasional B (one exception is a C I carried almost all year in Algebra 2 Honors this year. I’ve dropped down to College Prep Pre-Cal for next year so I can assure myself an A… math isn’t my strongpoint.)
I’m really worried that I’ve overloaded myself for this upcoming year. My courses are as follows:
CP Pre-Cal
Chemistry Honors
Astronomy
AP US History
AP Psychology
AP Biology
AP Language and Composition
I’ve been told that psych is a breeze, so I’m not too concerned about that, but I’m concerned about the other three. I decided to take AP Bio because I’ve planned on going the biology route pretty much since the first science class I ever took, and I thoroughly enjoyed biology honors my sophomore year. US History is more of a couse that I took because I’d like to accumulate as many AP credits as I can, and I took AP Lang because I took english 3 honors my sophomore year, and I’d rather step up into the AP curriculum than down into the “average” curriculum.
I’m not in any clubs or after school activities, so grades and testing are really my sole priorities at this time.
Any advice on the classes above would be helpful, specifically the AP courses. Thanks for your help!
