<p>Next year, I will be a sophomore in my high school. My high school's only AP science course is Biology, so I wanted to know if it would be reasonable to complement my HS Chem class with materials to prepare for the AP Chemistry Exam. </p>
<p>This year, I took honors Biology and my teacher was excellent. He really pushed us to do our best and went above and beyond the typical scope of the course to really challenge us. Because of this, I have really developed a love for science, and I particularly enjoyed the chemistry component of his course. </p>
<p>So my question is, would this be a reasonable self-study if I had the guidance of the HS Chem instructor? I have the following credentials that would relate to taking the AP Chem Exam:</p>
<pre><code> - Completed Honors Biology w/ Strong Chem Emphasis (95 Avg.)
- 1910 on SAT exam as a Freshman (660 CR; 580 MA; 670 WR)
</code></pre>
<p>I know the exam is very difficult, but I have the motivation and discipline to set aside time to study and practice the additional material, but will I be able to comprehend it effectively?</p>
<p>Additionally, I will be enrolled in two courses at the college-level next year: AP European History and Business Math I, in addition to a full schedule of honors and regents courses. </p>
<p>So my question is, will I be able to handle and comprehend the AP Chemistry curriculum through a self-study? Thank you all for your responses!</p>
