<p>Next year I am taking:</p>
<p>AP Calc Ab
AP English Comp
AP US
AP Macro/AP Micro (we do one econ a semester)</p>
<p>and i may add AP PSYCH</p>
<p>Depends, depends, depends. I mean, depends on the school, really, not so much the course itself. Ideally, they're all college-level classes, but most of the AP teachers here at my school treat it like an honors US History class, except you have to do more reading, especially when the teachers are bad. For calc ab at my school, some students work really hard and many don't. If you want a 5, you have to work pretty hard, unless the concepts come easily to you. For AP US, it's not a very difficult exam--many people do well just by reading good study guides, but of course it's better to read the textbook. For AP Lit (?), to do well, you need to have read some good books and be generally good at critical reading. My Literature class is definitely not geared toward the AP test--we read a bunch of famous classics, but that's definitely not needed to do well on the AP test--doing well on the AP Language and Literature tests depends much more on being able to write a well-structured and well-supported and good-sounding and insightful rough draft of an essay in a short amount of time and on your ability to read critically. So it all depends on how much work you want to put into the class (most people in my lit class just read sparknotes, if that) and how serious and committed your teacher is.</p>
<p>thanks....</p>
<p>any other opinions</p>
<p>AP Psych is easy...almost a blowoff</p>
<p>AP Eng and APUSH are a lot of busywork...just do the work and you're fine.</p>
<p>It all depends on the teacher, just like dchow08 said. I've taken all of those except the Economics, and AP Calc. definitely had the most work for me. APUSH was a lot of reading, but I'm a fast reader and it wasn't a big deal.</p>
