I’m an incoming junior and I’m worried about my schedule. I have never taken an ap course but I have signed up for three this year my schedule would be
Ap Lang
Ap environmental
Ap us history
Math 2 (I used to do honors but I want an easier class if I’m doing a lot of ap’s)
Tennis
Spanish 3
I’m not sure if these ap classes are hard especially if I’ve never taken one
Would this be too much ?
And i know I picked the wrong category
AP US is lots of reading, but if you schedule appropriately and don’t wait to start it until April, you’ll be fine. There’s also lots of online resources for it, like Khan Academy and Crash Course. The content itself isn’t necessarily that difficult; it’s the analysis and deep thinking that gets people. I found AP Environmental to be quite easy. I didn’t really study outside of class and got a 5. You should be good there. Opted for orchestra instead of AP Lang so I can’t speak to that.
Wow thank you ! I really appreciate the advice
AP Lang was not that challenging of a course at my school. You just had to make sure you kept up on your active reading and the occasional project
@SuperGeo5999 dream schedule. APUSH is a lot of reading.
That’s a very good schedule.
Ask your GC if you will be able to drop down to honors UA history if you find you’re in over your head with three AP s, keep the other two regardless.
Looks like a good schedule. APES and Lang were not too much work (at my school), but APUSH required a lot of reading and revising, which is definitely doable if you set time aside every night
I took APUSH, AP English, and AP Physics, as well as the hardest possible Precalc course and I had my best semester ever. If you are motivated enough, you will be fine.
I might recommend trying to take Spanish 3 honors if you’re school offers it. I don’t know you personally, but Spanish honors vs. Spanish regular in my school are quite similar.
@NASA2014 why was I tagged on this thread when I didn’t even comment on this discussion?
