- The reason for my lackluster senior year schedule is because of my school. They made it so that an AP class would count as 2 periods. I was livid! They cut AP Chem, AP Bio, and put AP Stats the same period as calculus. Hopefully these new changes fall through but there is a strong possibly it will run as is. Which screw me over to be honest. Any Suggestions. </p>
