What Is The Best Self-Study?

Test Preparation AP Test Preparation

<p>Hey, here is my schedule for next year (10th Grade):</p>

<p>Honors Global History II
Honors French III
Regents English
Regents Geometry
Regents Biology
Music Theory w/Computer Applications
Physical Education
Religion</p>

<hr>

<p>Now, seeing this schedule, I want to see what would be the best self-study for me. None of the these APs are available at my school, besides Bio:</p>

<ol>
<li><p>AP Global History
By then, I would have taken Honors Global History I&II. That's the head start, but I don't think my school's honors classes are hard enough to get me at least a 3 on an exam with minimal studying.</p></li>
<li><p>AP Microeconomics OR AP Macroeconomics
I have no experience in any of these two. Flipping through a college level 100 textbook on Microeconomics, it seems pretty interesting. This actually could be fun. </p></li>
<li><p>AP Music Theory
The Music Theory w/Computer Applications course I will be taking next year can or cannot prepare me for the exam. It's just a class I am taking for the fine arts credit requirement for NYS. I might not succeed, because I can't read music that well. </p></li>
<li><p>AP Biology
Hey, my school has AP Biology for 12th Graders. If my school reccommends me to take it in 12th Grade, then, maybe it is more suitable for me to take in 12th Grade. However, if I do opt for AP Bio in 12th Grade, I will not be able to take Physics during my high school career.</p></li>
</ol>

<p>Thanks, everyone!!!</p>

<p>It all depends what you want to major in. Otherwise choose between micro/marco econ and ap biology. If you want to take physics take the ap bio exam in the 10th grade.</p>

<p>My intended major (foreign language) has nothing to do with these subjects. I just have a weaker schedule than kids who have the same weighted average as me.</p>

<p>i suggest take AP World along with regular history
idk, i got 4 on the AP but did pretty bad on the regents…=( i got 89 coming from an AP course
so in my opinion, they’re about the same level of difficulty, but the AP will ask more analysis questions, so might be just a bit harder. but essay-wise, approximately the same</p>

<p>The economics are probably the easiest to self-study and seem to be more fun for most people.</p>

6

<p>Should I self-study for AP World History, because I intend to take the World History SAT II in June?</p>

<p>^ definitely
tho i haven’t taken the WH SAT II, from what i’ve heard its much easier. you can even do well on it without the AP prep, with just WH Honors
i still suggest taking the AP for the credit, even if you’re not planning to major in it</p>
