<p>I am an upcoming junior this coming year and this is my following schedule...</p>
<p>AP Biology
Pre-AP Calculus
AP Psychology
AP Art History
Band V
AP English Language
AP U.S. History (online)
Chemistry I Honors (online)</p>
<p>Also, how hard is Pre-AP Calculus.</p>
<p>Your schedule is easy. I'm just curious but, is that supposed to be PREcalculus? I never heard of a pre-ap CALC course. Then what will you do next year?</p>
<p>Yes, Pre-AP...how would I accidentally write Pre-AP....I would take AP Calculus next year...Pre-AP is what I wrote, not AP...pre meaning prerequisite.</p>
<p>it's not really that hard, precalc is easy and I'm assuming band is an automatic-A. Your 5 APs are among some of the easiest APs there are too.</p>
<p>AP Bio and AP US are easy?</p>
<p>Uhh..was that a statement?..I never said they were easy...I heard they are hard..A person who responded to me said that its easy..</p>
<p>Thanks though</p>
<p>I thought AP bio was hard...</p>
<p>ok..I am going to tell you the same thing I told kwyjibo, I am the one who asked the question about my schedule...I never said AP Biology was easy, someone else said its easy. I posted the comment. Thanks anyway though.</p>
<p>IMO bio is easy, USH is intense, but if you do the work it's still easy, eng lang was pretty easy (just a lot of reading sometimes and in class essays for us), and I've heard psyc was easy, and art history I have no clue.</p>
<p>It's all relative to how good you are at different topics, but for me that schedule wouldn't be too bad, except art history (i'd die). None of us can say how hard that schedule is for you, only for ourselves, because we aren't you.</p>
<p>I agree with most everyone whose posted here. AP Bio is tough, and so is APUSH. My AP English course was very difficult, but that's only because my teacher dealt out 100's like diamonds. A perfect score from HER was something to put on your wall of triumphs. Most AP Eng courses are fairly easy. I took Chem AP, not honors, but it was one of the most difficult courses I've ever taken. I passed with roughly a 93 or 94 average, and it was the longest seventh-period of my life. The teacher rocked though. Your course isn't easy, in fact, it's pretty difficult. Just manage your time wisely. In other words, DON'T head over to CC until you've finished all of your homework!</p>
<p>at my school hardly anyone gets A's in AP courses unless you work extremely hard. In my bio class there were only 2 A's out of 20 people. I am very strong in history but I only got two high B's both semesters in US. I guess it just depends on the school.</p>
<p>same with our school. 5 As out of ~20.</p>
<p>apush and apbio are tough.</p>
<p>im taking ap calc and ap chem... I hope I can fair well.</p>
<p>well in our school school calc BC was easy. I never studied until a few weeks before my AP exam and the day before my final. AP chem was easy too, but harder than calc.
As for the OP. I'm going to say that Precalc is easy, as well as AP psych, Band, and Chem I. As for AP bio I heard it was easy as long as you do the work. For lang I heard it was easy. For USH, it really depends on your school. However for me the first quarter was hard but the rest was easy. I didn't have to study, instead I just read the textbook. For AP Art History, I did hear that it's easy to get an A but you're going to have to do massive memorization for the AP exam. So think carefully about that.
However in a general context I think your schedule is fairly well-equipped. You have two really strong AP subjects(bio and USH) and one sort of strong one(AP lang). I seriously advise you to drop AP psych and AP art history and take something like euro history or something like that.</p>
<p>It all depends on your school and your teachers.</p>
<p>You have an AP Psychology? Damn...that sounds easy.</p>
<p>This thread has no point to it because there are so many variables (teacher difficulty, school difficulty, student skill, etc). If you want to know really how hard it's going to be, ask people at your school who have the same type of intellectual abilities and who have taken the classes with the same teachers.</p>
<p>atomicfusion is right. However, admissions has to make the same assumption when they see the courses he took. They don't know each teacher, if there were rigor (notice my use of the subjunctive), and the other circumstances. So as much as we cannot say how difficult it really is at the end of the day this is what each school he applies to will have to determine somehow. It looks like a hard schedule to me. Good luck with it.</p>
<p>If the OP is aiming for ultra selective schools, I suggest he/she take a foreign language course, instead of AP Psych or AP Art History.</p>
<p>I didn't think of that jap student. Very good thinking because that is true.</p>
