<p>I’m taking APCS A and it’s very challenging at times but rewarding once you’ve got the language down. I had no prior experience with programming, although I do know some HTML but it does not help at all. Personally, I’m aiming for a 4, but if computer science is something you’re thinking about pursuing, you could probably pull off a 5. As for the workload, I’m only taking one other AP so it’s really not strenuous for me.</p>
