idk if this is a thread yet but here goes...


Anyway, as AP test season is fast approaching, I thought I'd see what everyone's taking this year.

AP geo, AP lit and comp and AP chem.

I couldve taken ap econ or enviro but naah, waste of money for me. econ sucked a ton.

Taking econ, physics b and English. Feel pretty confident in physics and English. Econ was 1st period and I could hardly stay awake through all the graphs. Its going to be rough.

I don't think its too bad. Some of the problems require a lot of intuitive thinking but its really just a lot of formulas. Know your formulas and when to use em and youll do fine.

Its not that it is super hard, but certain aspects are hard like nuclear physics, and thermal physics(at least for me). But stuff like potential energy, kinematics, optics, waves is pretty easy. The practice that i took though had a lot of freaking thermal and nuclear so i got destroyed:)

Fuck, i'm not very good at thermochem so thermophysics might be tough. Nuclear sounds interested as hell though

Holy crap that's loaded I also took 4 ap classes... 4/10 would not recommend. Especially since, judging by your username, you're not a native spanish speaker

I got AP Biology and AP Stats.

Time to get my ass fisted in both of them. The AP bio because it's hard, the AP stats because my teacher doesn't know shit.

Just a question for everyone, how difficult are the AP classes in reality? Obviously this is subjective to everyones school, but ive been told AP Lit is easier than the Honors version of the class which must be taken sophmore year. If this is true, does it apply to other AP courses, specifically APUSH?

Like you said its very subjective, but for most schools I've heard ap lit and honors lit is close to the same thing. To put the difficulty of apush into perspective, I have three 150 page notebooks filled with notes, front and back.

Totally subjective. There was only honors US hist at my school last year, and most of us took the apush test. I didn't even have a full notebook of notes. I got a 4. Idk

I don't think the classes are really that hard. You just need to put in a lot of work outside of class and if you don't it makes the class hard. AP classes are good tho. Take them if you can, even if you get a low grade it'll help you in the long run. I have an 88 in AP bio and it's the 2nd or 3rd highest in the class with a class average of a 77 . The class probably hurts peoples overall GPA but when they go to college it will definitely help them.

Holy fucking overkill. If you don't get a 5 on that test with all those notes your doing something wrong.

Word. Took Ap human geography last year and got graded on my notebook. Shit was super lame even though it was only a couple hundred pages by the end of the year. But, I did get a 5 on the test although I've heard that's the easiest test.

I'm taking APES this year and AP Psych and I can probably get another 5 on The APES test but I'm thinking I'll barely pass the Psych test because the class consists "independent study only" which really means we get a lecture about once a month and take a test about once every 3.

Before anyone asks. Yes the psych teacher is at the school only to be a soccer coach and couldn't give a shit about his classes. I honestly don't even trust him enough to ask him a question about the class material.
