Self Study Questions...Senior Year

Test Preparation AP Test Preparation
1

<p>I took three AP's this year (well 4, but only took 3 tests) as a junior and am planning to take 4-5 next year, including AP World, AP Lit, AP Calc BC, and AP Bio. I want to take AP Psych because that subject intersests me and it seems like an easy AP, plus it would boost my weighted GPA, but I'm wavering on whether to try and fit this into my already full schedule. I've never self-studied an AP so I have some questions:</p>

<p>1) Is AP Psych an easy self-study AP?</p>

<p>2) Does a self-study appear on your transcript/schedule as a normal class?</p>

<p>3) Is it worth it to self-study an AP senior year (since results won't come out until after I've graduated anyway)?</p>

<p>Some advice would be great! Thanks guys!</p>

<p>1) yes, very easy. Did that this year, along with 4 other APs at school. Get 5 Steps or Barron’s prep book, plus Barron’s flashcards.
2) depends on your school. I didn’t get any HS credit for mine.
3) Yes, I did that this year as a senior. It will still go for college credit, so it’s worth it.</p>

<p>A self study will not appear on your transcript.</p>
