<p>Out of the 5 I’m taking, only 3 have anything, which is good :D</p>
<p>AP Calc BC: Read Chapter 1 of our textbook and do ~150 problems from an assignment we were given. In addition, we should be ready for the first-day diagnostic test we will be given.</p>
<p>AP Chem: Do ~60 problems specifically assigned from last year and memorize certain tables in the book, as well as reading the first few chapters of the book (can’t remember how many). We should be prepared for a test on the first day about things we had to do over the summer as well.</p>
<p>AP Eng Lang + Composition: Same old summer assignment as always (read a book, write a one page paper, no big deal I guess).</p>
<p>taking 5, and only have work in 2!
euro is reading all 800-900 pages of peter the great… not happy.
psych is just a simple packet and reading dibs: in search of self (already done with this, so easy)
although i think i’m going to try to get ahead and read some books for ap eng, because the teacher at our school is killer and i’m terrified…</p>
<p>I’m doing APUSH with three other self-studies, so my only homework is reading Alan Taylor’s American Colonies for APUSH, with about fifteen essay questions.</p>
<p>^
Fifteen essay questions?
Do you have to do a full AP style essay for every one? I don’t think my APUSH class even did 10 essays throughout the entire school year…</p>
<p>AP English Language: I have to read 1984, Fast Food Nation, and Brave New World. I have to write a comparative essay for Brave New World and 1984 and an essay for Fast Food Nation, both have to be 5+ pages. I have to write about 10 newspaper articles and rank them in order of importance, and i have to study this vocabulary sheet. We have a test on the first day of school for ALL of this</p>
<p>AP US History: I have to outline chapters 2-6 of our textbook BY HAND, answer some key questions (he said some of them could be answered in an essay, but he’s only getting a paragraph for each from me), and define all the words on a vocabulary sheet</p>
<p>only 2 ap’s and this much work… i’m sad now… :(</p>
<p>-For AP Lang (we take it as seniors here), we have to read a book called “The Overachievers” about how AP classes ruin your lives. hmm. and then re-memorize like 100 lit terms that technically we’re supposed to know from Lit but no one actually does.
-For AP Euro, I have like 30 pages in the book to read and then liiiike 40 definitions.
-For Human Geo, memorize a bunch of places. beyond that I dont remember or care (second semester)
-For Psych, read a book I dont remember the title to and do something I, again, do not care about regarding the book (second semester)</p>

The whole summer assignment is based on the honors chemistry ciriculum in my school. Oh yeah, I have a test on all of the information the 2nd day of school.
AP Calc BC - A small ass packet of random precalc stuff. I have a small 15 problem take home test that is due 1 week after the first day of school and those problems are based on calculus stuff we did last year in precalc (limits, derivatives, curve sketching, basic integrals, some differentiablitiy, etc.)</p>
<p>Last year the teacher (same teacher for lang/lit) made us read 3 thick books, but this year she was sick/injured and didn’t bother giving us homework!</p>

<p>My other teachers have yet to post their summer assignments on Edline, but they guarantee there will be summer assignments.</p>
<p>I’m taking AP English Lit, AP Physics C (or B- I’m not quite sure), and AP Calc BC. My only work is for English. I have to read Pride and Prejudice, Beowulf, and Handmaid’s Tale and I’m almost done. I don’t have to write anything or do any other work.</p>
