AP tests start next week, and it would be awesome to know what people are taking. And we can post scores in here in July when they come out.

For me it is only:
Environmental Science
Calc AB
Literature and Comp.
Statistics

I'm sure there are people on here taking a bunch, post up!

I wrote French last year and it was the first year they totally re-organized the exam and it wasn't that bad (except for the part where you have to speak into a recorder). Got a 5 on it and I even said "merde" into the recording...

I fucking wish I could take AP classes, my school only offers AP physics and AP french. Signed up for physics but there's no use in me taking AP french in my opinion if I'm not going to use it in post secondary. Worst part is that because such a small number of people signed up for AP physics we probably wont be able to have the class. I think of how hard I worked my ass off in "advanced" classes to get 95+ plus marks and it won't even pay off compared to if I was able to take AP and it get me a lil upset.

My girlfriend's school only offers APUSH, and yeah it does suck. However, if you've taken the hardest courses that your high school offers, and gotten 95+ on all of them, colleges will be super happy. Sure you won't have AP credit coming in, but it's only a couple extra courses, and hardwork prevails over everything.

Also,

AP Calc AB
AP Comp and lit? idk, we just called it AP English, but I know there are two different ones.
AP Physics B

And in the past I took

APUSH, gotta 4
AP Euro, gotta 4
AP Chem, gotta 2 lol cause I FUCKING HATE CHEMISTRY.


I'm a senior, and with a 4 or a 5 on my AP English test coupled with my APUSH and AP Euro scores, I'm hopefully not gonna take any humanities next year as an engineering major!

AP European as an elective
AP Comparative Government, Independent Study.

I'd be thrilled with a 4 in Euro, a shit lot has happened in that place over the last 1000 years
I'm predicting a 4 in Comp Gov as well. For my first AP exams and independent study I'd be content

Yeah that was a bit of an overstatement but getting a post secondary credit for a course in highschool would be so convenient.

I'm Confident about Calculus because my teacher is really good (her husband even has brain cancer) and I dominate at that stuff, and I got a 36 on the math section of the ACT (which I know ain't calc. but /claim anyways)

I'm taking the Statistics and English Language ones. It sucks since they are on the same day. 8 consecutive hours of testing.

Can somebody tell me how difficult these are? I've gotten A's in both the classes but I still feel like I'm not prepared for the tests.

Bio

The only one I'm worried about is bio, but my teacher's students averaged a 4.5 last year so I think I should be set

My class is in the same boat haha. We're still wrapping up magnetism, and we'll probably cover modern physics an hour before the test.

AP chem wasn't nearly as bad as I was expecting. I'm expecting I'll get a 4. I have Spanish tomorrow, stats Friday, and micro and macroeconomics next week. I'm hoping for a 3 on Spanish and 4s on the others.

Last year I got a 4 on Calc AB and Physics C and a 2 on APUSH... Lol I hate history and didnt bother studying and my teacher didnt teach us anything.

I think it depends on your school. I come from a high school where the average ACT is a 26, and a 3.5 is considered "Average". AP Euro is taught great, but its hard as hell here. Makes APUSH and Psych look like a joke.

Took the ap lit today. Not nearly as hard as I though it would be. The essays were sort of a bummer because you are writing for so long though.
