Hey guys, I’m planning on doing the following classes for junior year. I’d appreciate any feedback.
These are what I’m taking right now. I struggled in AP Computer Science, but I don’t think that will cause any problems for next year.
Honors Precalculus
Honors Chemistry
Honors English 10
AP Statistics
AP Computer Science
Spanish 4
These are what I’m planning to do next year.
AP Calc AB
Honors Physics
AP Language
AP Psychology
AP Environmental Science OR AP Biology (Would AP Biology be over the top?)
Business law/business math
If anyone has taken any of these classes, I would appreciate it if you could tell me how they went: which ones are hard, which are easy, which require more self studying, which are on the list of your life’s biggest regrets, which books would be helpful for studying, etc. At my school, AP Language and AP Biology are the harder classes. I was also wondering about Honors Physics and AP Calc AB because I’ve heard a lot of conflicting things about both. Thanks in advance!
I’m taking Honors Physics right now. It isn’t hard at all. I literally never studied and I didn’t know a thing about what I learned, and I got a B for the semester. Trust me, I’m not a gifted student. I’ve worked hard to be where I am. However, if you want an A in physics, you must know the formulas, take good notes, and that’s it. It’s like a math class. All you really need to know is the formulas and the concepts. I’ll be studying and paying attention for this semester so I can get an A.
By the way, is Honors PreCalc hard? I’m talking it next year.
@Sportsomatic71 I can only speak for first semester, but precalc isn’t too hard. It’s almost entirely review of Algebra 2/Trig, but it’s easier because you’ve already learned it. The only new thing we did first semester was limits, which weren’t all that difficult. Second semester is trig and new stuff, so I don’t know how that will be.
