The whole school year I've been preparing for the AP Test, and now that it's nearly here, I know I'm not going to sleep very much.

Anyone else feeling it?

I have AP language on Monday and US history Friday, I think. In language, if all goes well, I think I should get a 4, but perhaps I shouldn't jump to conclusions by the practice tests. History is a bit more concerneind. SO MUCH INFORMATION! I've been studying for a couple of weeks, but it feels like I'm getting nowhere. I haven't even touched on last semester yet, either...arghh. (Also, why do they have to start so f**king early? I have to be somewhere half an hour away by 7:00AM!!)

^I have language on Monday too. Then I have AP Lit on Thursday, and then AP Psych late testing on the 17th. Frankly, I'm not really nervous because 1) I'm going to college and I don't really care and 2) I've taken AP/IB Exams before, and they're really not that bad.

I'm getting a little stressed, I'm sure I'll be okay though.. I've been through 5 others, 5 more can't hurt. Prom is the weekend between AP weeks, though, so I'm kind of dividing my energies between that and studying. =)
The only one I'm really worried about is microeconomics, I might not do well on that since I haven't actually taken the class.

I guess I used to only take APs just cause I was in the AP class and everyone else was doing it.. now it's to max out my college credits. yesssss. Except there's more stress on me for the latter reason..

Wait a second.

1. You don't make As on AP tests
2. I don't think there's any way to take all APs since freshman year since there's just not that many AP classes

You can get an A in the class, but not on the actual AP test.

There's AP tests for these classes:
Art History
Biology
Calculus AB
Calculus BC
Chemistry
Chinese Language and Culture
Computer Science A
Computer Science AB
Economics: Macro
Economics: Micro
English Language and Composition
English Literature and Composition
Environmental Science
European History
French Language
French Literature
German Language
Government and Politics: Comparative
Government and Politics: United States
Human Geography
Italian Language and Culture
Japanese Language and Culture
Latin Literature
Latin: Vergil
Music Theory
Physics B
Physics C: Electricity and Magnetism
Physics C: Mechanics
Psychology
Russian Language and Culture
Spanish Language
Spanish Literature
Statistics
Studio Art: 2-D
Design Studio Art: 3-D Design
Studio Art: Drawing
United States History
World History

So even if your school actually offered all those classes (which isn't likely) there's just about no way that they could make up a 4 year curriculum. Whatever. What do I know?

You don't get grade letters for AP tests. You could get As in an AP CLASS, but not the test. The score is from 1-5.

Also, There is no such thing as AP Algebra II.

some schools may use the AP designation indescriminately, and apply it to classes that other schools designate as "advanced" or "honors"

but anyways. here's how to tell if you're in an actual AP class:

1- is there an exam, about 3 hours on average, with essays, in may, costing 80 some dollars that you can take?

if not, then no, it's not a real AP class.

anyways; i have

bc calc
lang and comp
physics C mech
physics C E and M
APUSH


i feel special. Next year i'll have 8.
