<p>Post the number of APs you indepedent studied...
And list them w/ your scores and how you studied..</p>
<p>Economics, Environmental, Psychology, Physics B or C, Statistics, US History, World History,... </p>
<p>This is not from experience, I will self study Psychology next year, but the list i gave is from intelligent people who have self studied in my school.</p>
<p>Basically, any AP can be self studied if you have extra time, a review book and a textbook.</p>
<p>Do colleges like AP Independent Studying???
Do colleges like National AP Scholar??</p>
<p>sophomore year: Ind. Study Calc BC: 5 (teacher gave assignment list and I followed; never touched review book, but I used a college text)
junior year: Self-Study Physics C: Mech: 5 (college text, review text)
senior (this year): Ind. Study Spanish Language (lots of writing, reading, and trying to speak to my teacher lol)
Self-Study Physics C: EM (review text only lol), Chemistry (college text, review text), Comp Sci AB (my subject...didn't study period...lol)</p>
<p>ap french and ap french literature. seriously, i studied verb charts for ap french the night before(1 hour) and found summaries for the books for ap french literature(2 hours) and sat II french didnt study and got 760(pretty bad!!!). got 5 on ap french and waiting for french lit in july.</p>
<p>If you are a junior right now, colleges won't care whether or not you are independent studying because they'll have no proof. </p>
<p>Do it if you actually want to get credit, not for college whoring purposes.</p>
<p>what about starting freshman or sophmore year..
in the case, would it affect college admissions?</p>
<p>Sophmore year i self studied US Government AP and Comparative Government and Politics AP and got 5s on boht (really easy)</p>
<p>Last year i did European Histoyr, World History, Us History, and Human Geography on my own and also got all 5s</p>
<p>For me, the studying started over spring break, when i layed on the beach and tanned/studied during the day then partied at night. Then, leading up to the test i would spend lie half and hour on one of hte subjects every night, then go through hell the test week studying. It worked great though</p>
<p>it seems easier to self-study memorization/general stuff (i.e., history, lit, language) than to do the sciences (unless you have prior interest/knowledge in the area)</p>
<p>only self-study what your school doesn't offer...always opt to take the course, since it (if it's good) will cover much more material than just the stuff on the AP Exam...if you study ONLY the stuff for the exam and you place out of the material, you'll have a rough time in college</p>
