<p>^hahaha
seems like the ideal summer</p>
<p>Well i don’t know if this is considered as a summer assignment but for us URochesterians, well we need to complete this writing assignment within 2 hours and then they grade it to see which writing course we’re more qualified for.</p>
<p>Math - A placement test to see where I will start in the fall
Chemistry - Some basic stuff for review
American Lit - 3 books to read and over 600 vocab words</p>
<p>@desi_chick
I wouldn’t consider that a summer assignment lol. It’s a placement test and all colleges require students to take them.</p>
<p>Ap Human Geo- finish up most of the coursewoork
Ap Enviro- Finish up most of coursework
Ap Pysch- probably not going to do anything.
French- Skipping French II and going to French III</p>
<p>Ap Lit - 2 books and a paper over both, and another book with extensive notes
Also learning Japanese, Chinese, Klingon, and keeping up on my Spanish</p>
<p>Oooooh I love socratic circles! Not to be a bragger like a lot of people on this site, but I really kick arse in those situations :D</p>
<p>Now in the way of summer work, well…</p>
<p>US2 course self study (stalled by browsing this site of course
Alg 2 course
AP Eng Lang- 3 books/ argumentative essay
AP Bio- 6 chapters outlined, etc.
AP Micro/Macro- TBA</p>
<p>and then Latin stuff I guess…?</p>
<p>btw @thes1tuation, how are you approaching Chinese? I want to self study AP Chinese for Senior year and my school doesn’t even offer the course so I’m at a loss as to where to start…</p>
<p>I’m gonna hit the books hard after the 4th of July.</p>
<p>Self-studying Pre-Calc
Reviewing Chem
Self-studying Consumer Ed. so I can test out of it and not have to take it 2nd semester senior year (yay study hall! aka do whatever your mind compels you)
Starting on Physics
Writing college essays! Can’t believe it’s already that time.</p>
<p>Calc: about 20 or so problems out of a Pre-Cal textbook every, so far they’ve been on limits, continuity, and logarithmic/exponential functions. </p>
<p>Phys B: some really easy stuff that seems like the introduction to any math/science course (scientific notation, converting from unit to another) </p>
<p>Lit: One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest and the Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time, with a bunch of questions on both. </p>
<p>I have assignments in all three courses every week, and I have to turn them on Friday before midnight. :</p>
<p>No summer homework. I graduated. :)</p>
<p>I have no summer.</p>
<p>My school has no summer break for seniors.</p>
<p>After the finals are over, we take “supplementary classes” which are pretty much mandatory because after the four day"break" (Alas…),
it’s immediately midterms :(</p>
<p>All my midterms are right after the holiday break in my country. So essentially, everyone spends their holidays studying.</p>
<p>Calc packet and two visual presentations for books on the AP Lit reading list.</p>
<p>And my required summer research internship. I need to finish collecting all my data by October and get a research paper ready.</p>
<p>I hate listening to people at school complain about how they don’t have free time during the summer because of math packets, reading lists, chem problems. Math/Science program kids are required to work 40-hour weeks in a science laboratory collecting data for the whole summer. And keep a comprehensive research journal of our daily activities and insights and read a bunch of scientific articles and turn in weekly updates about our progress/breatkthroughs. Then go back to school to write up a research paper and then submit it to a national science competition of our choice and then prepare a presentation for the Senior Research Science Symposium where experts will verify the work.</p>
<p>It’s technically optional but the teachers totally blackmail us into doing it, like: “If you choose to interview out of the project and the REQUIRED Senior Reasearch course you will be automatically withdrawn from the program and will be unable to receive credit for magnet coursework”</p>
<p>Why am I in this program?</p>
<p>^We had a science research program like that too, except that it was completely your choice whether you want to be a part of it or not. If you chose to participate, it was asssumed that you welcomed the work. It’s really not that bad… actually a lot of fun, you know. I hope you’ll end up liking it :).</p>
<p>I have two more placement exams to finish by tomorrow, that’s all.</p>
<p>how about this bet you can’t beat it
