Is This Self-Study Doable?

<p>Next year, I plan on self-studying some APs, because my courseload is not all that great, right now (only one honors class...ugh).</p>

<ol>
<li><p>AP Biology
Next year, I will taking Biology Regents. Instead of just doing Biology Regents work, I hope to build on my Biology knowledge, by buying a textbook (maybe...but really can't afford it), or by buying a review book. </p></li>
<li><p>AP World History
By the time, I take the exam, I will be have taken two years of Global History Honors. Just like Bio, instead of doing just Global History Honors work, I will build more, by using the World Civilizations AP Edition. </p></li>
<li><p>AP Music Theory
Just like both Bio and World History. I will take a Music Theory class next year, but it's not AP. </p></li>
</ol>

<p>Doable or not doable?</p>

<p>If you go on Amazon, used Campbell’s Biology books sell for ~1 buck. It doesn’t matter if it’s an older edition. </p>

<p>I would say that you have a lot on your hands, but it’s doable. Just be diligent because AP classes go way beyond what they teach in regular classes. </p>

<p>You’ll have to teach yourself how to do FRQ’s and the like.</p>

<p>Biology takes a lot of time to remember the information. Buying yourself a textbook is helpful. Most recommended study guide is Cliffnotes.</p>

<p>World History also takes a lot of time to remember the information. Since you have a textbook, you’re set if you study diligently.</p>

<p>Hopefully, my Biology teacher, who also teaches AP biology, just lends me the extra AP Biology books she has, which is Campell’s Biology.</p>

<p>But she’s the kind of teacher that is like “ugh, I don’t want you to self-stduy Biology, because I want you to be in my 12th Grade AP Bio class.”</p>
