<p>This is my 1st post on college confidential, so please excuse me. My schedule for this year, my sophomore year, is as follows:</p>
<p>Honors English 10
Advanced Band
Latin 2
AP World History
AP Physics 1
AP Computer Science
Accelerated Pre-Calculus</p>
<p>I'm a bit worried that I might have gone overboard with my class choice. Is 3 AP sophomore year a regular thing? Or is it unheard of? I took 2 AP Classes last year, my freshman year, AP Biology and AP US Government and made a 4 and 5, respectively. If I'm not crazy, any tips for these classes?</p>
<p>Since you succeeded in AP classes in freshman year, I think you should be fine. I personally took 3 AP classes sophomore year (US Gov, Calc BC, Comp Sci) and self-studied a 4th (Physics C Mechanics).
As for your classes, Physics 1 should not be too difficult for you, since I’ve heard it’s intended to be an introductory physics course (no prior knowledge needed). It only covers basic mechanics, a bit of waves/sound, and a bit of electricity. AP Computer Science was easy for me, since I had prior programming knowledge. If you don’t I think you should still be fine if you pay attention in class and can do the programming assignments. As for World History, I’m taking that this coming school year as a junior, but I’ve heard that the test is kind of difficult. The difficulty of the class depends on the teacher.</p>
