<p>beechbum, you're only in 10th? for the longest time I assumed you were a senior!</p>
<p>beechbum is a senior. the 10th grade is the <em>starting grade</em></p>
<p>3, 11th grade. </p>
<p>All at UC Berkeley... and all math classes...</p>
<p>2 at Yale, between junior and senior years
1 AP junior year
2 APs senior year</p>
<p>suburbian -- I'm pretty sure beechbum is a senior. I think what he meant was that he started his college classes in 10th grade... that was what the OP asked. I may be wrong.</p>
<p>yeah, i'm a senior.....second semester in fact :D</p>
<p>How does one take 6 and a half APs?</p>
<p>I have 0 college classes and 1 AP :(</p>
<p>I took 3 Bio courses from UMD College Park. I've taken 7 APs, started in tenth. (although i'd love to strike AP chem from my transcript)</p>
<p>0 college. 2 at canadian university. 15 ap 5 self study</p>
<p>My son has taken 11 college classes, starting in 8th grade.
And will have 6 APs done by June.</p>
<p>(When I was in high school, we didn't have APs and it was unheard of for h.s. kids to take college classes. You guys are impressive! I can't imagine how well prepared you all are for college.) :)</p>
<p>Oh and I will have done eight AP classes (chem,bio,physics C, calc b/c, stat, literature, government, economics)</p>
<p>Ooh! I just remembered that I took health by correspondence through Texas Tech so that I could graduate, so my "college" classes count is at a grand 0.5.</p>
<p>And maybe half an AP is like, just micro or macro economics or something?</p>
<p>I'm wondering, would there be any point in taking both the Calc AB and BC tests in the same year? I'm doing AB in school and BC independent study.</p>
<p>I said 6 and a half because I'm only taking half of Physics B AP. I'm switching to honors. It was just a joke. An unsuccessful joke, but a joke nonetheless. and surburbian, why not? if you want to spend the extra money, go for it. You're given an AB subscore on the BC test though, so I don't know...</p>
<p>heh, forgot about the extra $70. My school pays for IB exams, but not for AP.</p>
<p>At our school, the AB and BC tests are administered at the same time. There's really no point to taking both because of the AB subscore. I know that two-thirds of the free-response problems on the BC test was identical to the AB test last year, with the last two problems only on BC material (eg:Taylor series), and I assume that the same goes for the multiple choice section. However, if you're going to Yale, they don't distinguish between AB and BC when giving credit for acceleration, so if I were you, I would pick one or the other. Which one is your choice.</p>
