<p>form what i've read and heard, it seems to me that self-study is appreciated
but how can you verify it? i mean, i can say that i self studied calc bc in my 7th grade
will you believe me? probably not
how can i prove it to you?
and how do you check it?
thanks</p>
<p>(i didn't self study calc bc in my 7th grade, but i'm doing it now)</p>
<p>Did you take the AP exam that follows after study of the material? That would be a very straightforward way to demonstrate the results of your study, at least.</p>
<p>AP, SAT II, and CLEP exams are all convenient ways to document material you have mastered on your own.</p>
<p>I self studied a lot of classes and let MIT know about it.</p>
<p>They saw I wasn't lying through tests.</p>
<p>oh...i see....
i thought you can take ap test only after you took that class..
pardon my stupidity lol
thanks</p>
<p>what dud other people self-study n when?
i did physics c in ninth grade and psych in eleventh</p>
<p>i'm doing Physics B and Calc BC now (sophmore)</p>
<p>I self-studied Physics C and Spanish Language (God, those essays were hard)</p>
<p>baronwolfnstein: how exactly did you go about self studying for the language exam? it seems as though i will have to self study for french lang (our school only goes up to french 4 and doesn't offer ap). any advice for how to prepare? i have a fairly strong grasp of hte language but have no clue how to prepare for those essays without being in a class.</p>
