Official 2011 AP Self Study Thread

<p>Well I’m going to a lousy public school right now and I’m basically just bored.My mom wanted me to have a bit of time to catch up with American schoolwork(history,english,blah blah blah)before I go to boarding school.I want to go to a top university and yes I’m a little paranoid about it,especially after exploring CC I’m getting anxious. :(</p>

<p>@Julianyc haha, I feel sympathy for you. My public high school is pretty lousy too :slight_smile: Welll, maybe its because I chose lousy classes >< Gosh, I don’t think I’ll ever be able to get in a decent uni seeing how most CCer have great resumes. Btw, does anyone know if self studying APs (assuming I get good marks, i hope) could help overcome unrigorous classes?</p>

<p>I will self study, for I am a F U C King boss.</p>

<p>Would someone please lay down what i’d have to do to self study AP physics C? The exam is in a little under 3 months and I know nothing! I only want a 3</p>

<p>~1 month 26 days 20 hours 32 minutes 32 seconds</p>

<p>until the first AP exam!</p>

<p>^ That’s Environmental I think, I am self studying that</p>

<p>Think it’s too late to get a 5 in AP US History if I’m only in colonial age stuff right now? If I read a chapter of AMSCO every day until the exam?
And how about AP European History - I’m a chapter after the French Revolution? Thanks :)</p>

<p>EDIT: And read a chapter of Crash Course every day each? I know, I’m starting way too late, but I need to know my chances.</p>

<p>You think I can try the APUSH exam, I’m currently taking Honors US history now. Or should I cram a little or just study a whole lot cause they’re that different?</p>

<p>-never took an AP test before</p>

<p>Is it too late to self-study AP Psych? How long does it take to study it before the exam?</p>

<p>^About 2 weeks, according to other CC’ers. I’m doing it now; just read through Barrons a few times and make flashcards for the vocab. You’ll be set.</p>

<p>Alright, so I registered for my self-studied exams Friday.
Now I’m self-studying Psych, US Gov and Macro along with APUSH in class.
:)</p>

<p>taking courses for lit, comparative, art history, environmental, calc
going to self study psych, world, and maybe macro and micro
took u.s gov, u.s history, comp, stats, and euro last year 5s on all the histories 4s on the other two</p>

<p>Well I am about to start self studying for Psych and Human Geo. As well as do major work to bring up my grades. :confused: Wish me luck I will need it…■■■</p>
