Can a sophomore self-study?

<p>I'll be a sophomore next year and I have a some-what difficult schedule. It is:
1. Advanced Weight Training
2. Religion II
3. Conceptual Physics (might be in H. Chemistry)
4. Honors English II
5. AP World History
6. Honors Spanish III
7. Dance
8. Honors Algebra II</p>

<p>I am thinking about self-studying for AP Gov or AP Human Geography. Has anyone self-studied these before? Is it a bad idea to do so?</p>

<p>not a bad idea at all! you may even want to do both!</p>

<p>I don’t know how hard AP Gov or AP Human Geo is, although purportedly the latter is an “easier” AP.</p>

<p>But yeah, I was in a similar situation last year, taking AP Calc BC, AP Physics Mechanics, and AP World, and I went ahead and self-studied AP Stat (all 5s). So I certainly say it’s doable, and advisable if you want potential college credit. Pick a subject that’s relatively simple to self study (so not like, AP Physics E/M) and to your liking (optional though, just might make it more enjoyable).</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>buy ap books from amazon, learn time management, and remember anything is possible</p>

<p>also, take a few practice tests and figure out where you currently stand</p>
