<p>I've been thinking about self studying this subject this year... i'm currently taking ap chem and have always been interested in environmental science, especially weather (one of my hobbies. i have a weather station. =D ).</p>

<p>for those of you who have taken the exam, how is it? can i self study it fairly easily??</p>

<p>-will</p>

<p>interestingly, i just looked up the grade distributions for chem, bio, and enviro, and i was surprised to see that enviro has the lowest rate of getting a 5....</p>

<p>-------Bio------Chem------Enviro
5s.....18%.......15%.........9%
4s.....20%.......18%.........23%</p>

<p>at my school, AP Enviro is taken by kids who aren't smart enough for ap bio or ap chem... but maybe that's just my school.</p>

<p>hmmm i thought ap enviro was easiest?</p>

<p>AP Enviro has the lowest rate of people getting fives becase not many people have a class for it and most people who take it self-study it. Since it is one of the easiest APs out there many people don't take it very seriously and don't really study much for it. I took it without any preparation except for what I learned in my AP Bio class and got a four.</p>

<p>I am currently taking AP Environmental as a class. I can tell you first-hand, that the material is either common sense, or pretty specific. There isn't much material that falls into the middle. Because of this, I can see how people can score fairly well without the class, however, this also explains why there are not many 5's.</p>
