<p>What is the hardest AP class in your school?</p>
<p>What do you think is the hardest AP class?</p>
<p>I've only taken 3 so far but my hardest was world history by far for the class. The teacher would give us essays like 3 times a week to do in one night, just for nightly hw. It was insane.</p>
<p>Yes..I just finished my sophmore year and AP WoHis was hardddd.. :( Glad got that over with though. What did you get on the AP world history exam?</p>
<p>AP Calculus is the most difficult AP at my school. Of course, this simply means that it more difficult than AP English, so I doubt this will help you. :D</p>
<p>AP Government...I know hardened, obsessive, GPA-hording kids who have opted for regular government to avoid this insanity of a class.</p>
<p>AP USH was hardest, workloadwise.
AP Calc has historically had the worst score averages (and no, the students don't get to slack off in that class...)</p>
<p>But we only had USH, Calc AB & BC, and Eng. Lit, so...</p>
<p>We have post-APs which are pretty hard. I think the hardest classes are post-AP neuro,dna1&2, comp architecture, and artificial intelligence..</p>
<p>For APs, maybe US History cause the teachers are crummy. But at the same time,
[quoted from Wikipedia]
</p>
<p>'For schools with more than 1,000 students, TJHSST was cited as having the highest-performing AP Biology, AP Calculus BC, AP Chemistry, AP English Language & Comprehension, AP French Language, AP Government & Politics: U.S., AP Psychology, and AP U.S. History courses among all schools nationwide in its size range. No other school had a greater proportion of its student body succeed in these subjects.'</p>
<p>I guess that means highest average score in those classes.</p>
<p>calc bc</p>
<p>it's in the gifted and talented program as the junior year course, right before multivariable. non-g&t people can take it if they skip a year of math, take calc ab junior year, and calc bc senior year. which is what i'm planning on doing (if i pass precalc this summer!)</p>
<p>good luck theoneo!</p>
<p>AP French/ Spanish (less than 10 students in each class)
AP Physics (generally taken by seniors at our school but I'm going to take it anyway)
AP English IV or whatever it's called (either crazy if you're a math/science person like me or love it if you're more English inclined)
AP US History (teacher demanding, an outline is due every school day)
AP Calculus BC (not formally a class, instead required to self-study under teacher supervision)</p>
<p>These are only what I've heard from people that have taken the classes. I have yet to take these myself.</p>
<p>The hardest class in my school is probably Trig/Analytic Geometry. Yes I know its not an AP</p>
<p>Well the hardest class at a school doesn't have to be an AP class. It's just that almost everyone assumes that the hardest class is...</p>
<p>kramer- i got a 4.. i took it 10th grade (last year)</p>
<p>spanish,.,,,..</p>
<p>AP Physics
Not only is it the hardest, but they give you a pass/fail grade. (There are usually <7 students taking it, however, this year there was around 15. The teacher is the only physics teacher in the school and supposedly his regents physics class is almost college-level- imagine AP?!</p>
<p>AP Calculus BC
I thought this was the second hardest until I realized that last year around 81.25% of the students in that class received a 5 on the AP exam. Mind you that my school has an SAT average of about 880 and 44% go to 4-year colleges.</p>
<p>AP Euro!! The only AP offered to Sophmores... it's the HARDEST</p>
<p>Workload-wise = AP Bio
Difficulty-wise = AP Physics C (only mechanics offered)</p>
<p>AP English Literature and Composition is the hardest class at my school.</p>
<p>I've heard (and believe) that AP Computer Science is VERY hard</p>
<p>AP Chemistry. Our teacher doesn't understand the concept of the curve on the AP exam. As in, she gave us a practice AP exam for a midterm and didn't think she had to scale it!</p>
<p>Fortunately, we talked her into scaling it. Unfortunately, she did not use a bell curve, so I got the second best grade in my class of 8 people (79). The best grade was an 83. I was still able to end the year with a 93 so it didn't really mess up my GPA.</p>
<p>Oh I forgot! AP Physics C(only one offerered) is very hard. Not because the AP exam is difficult, because after Dr. Dell's class, everything thinks the AP was EASY! He used to teach at Princeton I believe, and Princeton still wants him. He teaches at very fast and difficult pace and teaches probably twice as much as is needed. He grades based on how well he thinks you're grasping his class and whether or not you're putting the effort. So basically, if you're a math genius(only semi or full math geniuses take his class to begin with. suprisingly enough very few girls) you can not do any work outside class and perform well on tests and get an A. If you work hard but can't do well on his tests you can get B+ or B. He normally scares his students by giving them lower grades first two quarters but then softens and normally if people dont drop out by then they will get A/B+/B(only a few). But the courseload is so difficult that many people can not handle it.</p>
<p>By the way, our normal physics class is taught at the B level, but not many people knew so we couldn't take advantage of taking the AP Physics B exam. All the classes at our school is honors/AP/or post-AP, so I wish they would have told us we could take an AP exam for our honors class.</p>
