<p>Thanks to everyone for the answers! :D</p>
<p>I’ll probably take AP Psych, Macro (or micro), and English my senior year. I only have the two AP Physics C courses then so I’ll have ample time to self-study. </p>
<p>Is the AP English exam itself just grammar rules and things of that sort? Or is it critical reading, reading comp, and things of that nature?</p>
<p>I assume there’s also an essay at the end?</p>
<p>And 1sparkle2, sadly, no. The school I go to now is one of the worst in the country, and the school I plan to go to in my junior year is a math and science school with a lot of emphasis on science and mathematics AP’s. </p>
<p>And to everyone taking Calc AB instead of BC, BC is just AB with a few extra concepts added on. I think they add stuff like Taylor series in there.</p>
<p>What’s the difference between Physics B and C? Is B trig based or something?</p>
<p>The AP English exams are about reading comprehension and application of literary terms (alliteration, hyperbole, etc). AP English Language, the junior class, is centered on nonfiction and how texts are crafted to make particular points. The multiple choice portion asks about tone, definitions of words in context, diction, syntax, and so on. There are three essays at the end. The first is the synthesis essay. You are given a series of documents and have to use them to answer a prompt. For the rhetorical analysis essay you are given a passage and asked to write an essay describing how the author used rhetorical strategies to prove his/her point. The last one is a persuasive essay. I’m sure there’s practice tests online. AP Lang is actually a good class for math and science inclined people because it requires a lot of analytical reasoning.</p>
<p>AP Lit is similar but the course is centered on fiction. Lit is the senior class.</p>
<p>AP Physics B is more concepts based than AP Physics C. My school is starting to offer B to juniors as preparation for C.</p>
<p>Yeah Physics B covers more topics, but in less depth. Physics C requires some calculus I think.</p>
<p>Also, answering your original question, I’ve taken:
-APES (exam-only)
-APUSH (exam-only)</p>
<p>And will take:
-AP Chemistry
-AP Biology
-AP Physics B
-AP Calculus AB (maybe, exam-only)
-AP Calculus BC
-AP Stats (exam-only)
-AP Lang (maybe, exam-only)</p>
<p>Whether your AP load is enough really depends on the context of your school, and since you’re taking all of the offered APs, it’s definitely enough.</p>
<p>Oh! Well, I guess I didn’t tell you my APs.</p>
<p>Sophomore year: AP World History, AP Psychology
Junior year: AP Chemistry, AP English Language/Composition, AP US History
Senior year (next year): AP English Literature/Composition, AP Comparative Government & Politics, AP Calculus BC, AP Biology, AP Spanish Language, AP Human Geography</p>
<p>All taken in school.</p>
<p>@sparkle Did you take AP Calculus AB junior year as well? Or did you skip right to BC?</p>
<p>I’m skipping right to BC. We don’t have to take AB first at my school and I’m one of the strongest honors precalc students.</p>
<p>Is this a bragging thread now?</p>
<p>@TeamRocketGrunt AP physics B is more broader than AP physics C, and it’s algebra-trigonometry-based. If you’ve taken a non-AP physics course, AP physics B is just and extension (I know this wasn’t part of your question, but it helps realize the difference). Usually, AP physics B is designed for students who wish not to major in the physical sciences (chemistry, physics, biophysics, biochemistry) or engineering. Whereas AP physics C is calculus based. You’ll use calculus throughout the year, and it’s more specific. Obviously, it’s more challenging and takes a lot of work. Opposite of AP physics B, C on the other hand is geared more towards students who are looking at a physical science or engineering major in the future, but this shouldn’t prevent anyone from taking the class. Also, the AP courses I plan to take are (for senior year, the ones I’ve completed are AP biology and AP chemistry):</p>
<ul>
<li>AP physics C</li>
<li>AP language and comp.</li>
<li>AP calculus AB (yearlong)</li>
<li>AP poly science</li>
</ul>
<p>Yeah, I guess this is sort of a bragging thread now. OP, if you have another question I’ll stop talking about myself and answer it.</p>
<p>Junior year - AP Calculus AB, AP Psychology, AP English Language
Senior year - AP Statistics, AP US Government, AP English Literature, AP Physics B
I also plan to self-study one or two senior year. I’m leaning towards Calc BC, Physics C Mechanics, Physics C E&M, and/or Macroeconomics. All four interest me, but are not offered by my school. Plus I am thinking about being an engineer so Calc BC and Physics C are useful as well. I just have to figure out which one or two to do, I don’t want to take 8 exams in one year.</p>

<p>I hate this site</p>
<p>I’ve heard macro is easier than micro.</p>
<p>Accurate statement?</p>
<p>Either way it’s considered one of the three hardest classes in my school, so that’s a pretty subjective statement.</p>
