What did you think of AP Stat/Physcology

<p>Those are the only 2 AP's i am taking this year I was wondering what you thought of the two courses/tests and their workloads</p>

<p>i didn't take the ap courses because my school doesnt offer them but i did take the college course equivilants. stats was pretty simple, the formulas were pretty easy and everything was pretty straigh forward. Physc however i found to be a lot more difficult. We covered a lot of material that was all spread around the different branches of physcology. For instance one week we would spend talking about the physical aspects of the brain and the next week we would talk about languages and the next week we would talk about sleeping disorders.<br>
I'm not quite sure if thats how the ap classes are but that was my experience.</p>

<p>psychology really isn't that bad. i screwed around during the whole course and ended up with a 4.</p>

<p>AP Psych is the easiest AP I've ever taken. If you know life, then you can easily learn psychology. It's just knowing key terms and schools of thought.</p>

<p>I somehow think that AP Psych is better for girls though. I dunno why.</p>

<p>Thats not true about AP Psych. Its not really based off of life. Its more like boring memorization of the Biology of the Human Brain and memorizing names of scientists and their semi-interesting experiments. It is easy (in my opinion) and even though this may sound sexist, it does seem like more girls are interested in it then guys.</p>

<p>the AP Stats class is pretty easy if you're good with the TI, but the exam was hellish last year. I don't kno how the f I got a 5(I left like 3 free response blank)</p>

<p>I was saying that AP Psych is based off of life because the course mentions many familiar things that you may have already learned or know a bit about (for example: SAD, AIDs, Freud, sexual disorders). </p>

<p>The greatest thing is that in this class you will hear about these topics for all your life. A good majority of the course is relevant unlike AP Calculus, which you'll never truly use in real-life situations unless your profession requires it.</p>

<p>The AP Psych exam is a total joke. I decided to take the exam for fun at the end of my senior year without having had any psych class (I know a little just from other general classes). I screwed around on the exam and did not write the second essay at all (I literally wrote a letter to the grader about my life). I still ended up with a three. A three is not a good score but if you have a psych book and review it you should easily get a four. Several of my friends decided to take the exam after having taken regular psych (my high school did not offer AP) and most of them got fives and there were also a few fours. I have heard that AP Stats is also pretty easy. But I have no experience with that exam soooooooooooooooooooooooooo.</p>

<p>chi squared lol</p>
