CTY Chem and AP Chem 9th Grade

Test Preparation AP Sciences
1

<p>Hello CC,</p>

<p>I am going to be a freshman in September, and I really want to get the most out of my high school experience, by skipping some easy classes that I can learn by my self or I could take online. Because of this I decided to take CTY's Honors chemistry class outside of school starting now and ending in 3-4 months then after that taking the CTYonline AP Chemistry course during the intensive spring period and taking the AP test in May.</p>

<p>My schedule is as follows: (all honors where is possible)
Bio
Algebra 2
Mandarin 1
Freshman Lit and Comp
World Civ
Latin 1
Wellness 1
CTY Chem then when this is done
AP CTY Chem
Also some extracurricular</p>

<p>My questions are as follows:
Is this too much for a Freshman
Has any one ever taken a CTY AP class over the intensive spring? If so, is it doable?</p>

<p>Basically, by taking my normal class high school classes with CTY Chem half of the year and AP CTY Chem the other half, will I learn all of the Chemistry needed to get a 5 on the AP exam or am I better off taking AP Chem with my class mates when I am a sophomore?</p>

<p>Thanks everyone,
finalfrontier</p>

<p>Chemistry is one of those subjects you really want a lab for.</p>

<p>Why would you want to do that though. Going through high school is not a race. You have adequate time to take many APs (more than any college will even care for) and get into great universities while having fun WITHOUT doing extra stuff like this.</p>

<p>It is always good to challenge yourself</p>
