<p>It's really easy at my school and the teacher is cool. I'd be taking it in my Senior year ( after CALC BC) as well as Stats.</p>
<p>yes. it’s an intro course</p>
<p>yes, it’s an introductory course in java, and it seems like you have a good enough math background for it</p>
<p>Math really doesn’t have much to do with it. I’d say anything beyond Geometry/Algebra 2 is useless for APCS.
I’d say that this is one of the harder exams in the sense that you either really get it or you don’t. The way you have to think in this class is a lot different than any other.
I recommend flipping through Barron’s at a store and seeing whether it makes a bit of sense. If so, then by all means take the course.</p>
<p>It’s significantly easier if you have some programming experience already, because the the course is a breeze. I’d watch some Java tutorials on Youtube “there are tons of them” and see what you think. </p>
<p>As chilldude said, you either get it or you don’t. It will be either a really easy class or one of the hardest APs you take.</p>
