Junior year AP Load

<p>Yeah. I am basically pretty pumped for APs. sophomore year is SO boring....but haha i'll probably regret that.</p>

<p>I actually really really want to take AP Pschy, too bad my school doesn't even offer it.</p>

<p>junior year;</p>

<p>Calc AB AP
Chem AP
Computer Science AB AP
Eng Lang AP
American History AP</p>

<p>would adding in bio be too much???</p>

<p>^ Yes. I'm guessing you're already (during jr. year) taking the PSAT for National Merit, either the SAT or the ACT, as well as SAT II's. Plus, you already have chem as a science, which is enough.</p>

<p>Junior Course Load:</p>

<p>Spanish 3 HON
Physics HON
AP Calculus AB
Anatomy and Physiology (Cat Dissection)
Symphonic Concert Band
AP English Lang
AP US History</p>

<p>AP US History is really easy to learn if you have enough motivation to learn all the facts</p>

<p>AP Calculus is mostly about remembering equations and applying concepts</p>

<p>AP English is about... well writing essays. If you are a strong writer, you will have no problem getting a excellent grade.</p>

<p>im not a math/science person at all but i thought ap chem was manageable if not occasionally amusing. i'm also a rising junior. apush is also pretty easy since its basic stuff that teachers have been drilling into our heads since elementary school- get that amsco book, and youll be fine. ap lang, i heard is pretty challenging. ap micro/macro, i havent taken it yet but i heard its not too bad. good luck =]</p>

<p>moneysworthelss - I was going to take both AP Bio and AP Chem, since I rock at both (haha not really). But I decided to take Econ instead..maybe too much of a good thing will turn out to be "bad".</p>

<p>it's not too bad.. i took 4 AP classes this year (in addition to my other Pre-AP classes that prep us for AP next year):</p>

<p>Calculus AB
World History
Physics B
Chemistry</p>

<p>it's a workload with 4 AP's... but it's worth getting the credit for college.. it's not too terribly bad, really.</p>

<p>My school doesn't offer World History and U.S. History is mandatory.</p>

<p>world history would be SO much better.</p>

<p>dude...think about this. do you want to go out, play sports, have friends, go to sporting events, you know normal "fun" stuff during high school.</p>

<p>i did all that with 3 varsity sports and a job and only 2 ap's (got 2 4's) but it didnt come without a little struggle. you gotta be willing to sacrifice if you wanna take 4 ap classes. </p>

<p>unless you can do all that at the same or dont care about going out and stuff.</p>

<p>you figure at least 30-60 min per night per AP class. and bam thats 2-4 hours gone just on 4 classes. plus projects and tests and your other classes</p>

<p>your schedule seems doable. In my school, Microeconomics is its own course, but it wasn't too hard (my grades were like 94 ish). Chem is brutal, US History is a breeze and English Lit is alright.</p>

<p>Hmm wow the exact opposite at my school (or so i heard) lol</p>

<p>omg...how do you say US History was a breeze?
at my school AP US and AP Chem are considered the two hardest. Both to get through and to get a good grade in.</p>

<p>I'm taking:
AP English Lit
AP Micro
and self studying AP Computer Science A.</p>

<p>I'm only taking 2 because IB takes up practically my entire schedule.</p>
