are they really that important to get into college cuz im taking AP US history next year and the teacher came in today and it sounds like ill be skiing like 2 times a month next year cuz of the workload
 
i took AP Euro last year. its not that bad. tell your teacher to fuck off.

i was able to ski any time i wanted, so dont worry
 
i did ap economics the workload is only really bad once ski season is over... dont worry about it
 
i came into college a semester ahead because of AP classes. homework in general is not really important from what i've found out. you can always find ways to keep your grade high even without doing homework. just tell your teacher that you dont have to do it in college, so why do it now if an AP class is supposed to be a college level class. plus, by taking the AP class now, thats one less class you have to take in college, thus creating more skiing time.
 
Don't worry, APUSH won't take time out of your skiing. it's a lot of work, but not enough to effect that
 
im a freshman and i had signed up for AP us history next year, but then i found out that

a. the summer assignment is a bitch

b. you cant take the test or get credits if you're a sophmore..at my school you've got to be a junior to do taht

plus ill be taking all honors classes and two languages so ill have enough to do haha so i dropped the ap course and am taking honors instead

plus i still wanna have time to ski..
 
that would be such a hard class schedule for a sophomore, by the time you were a senior you would be taking classes at teh local college because your school doesn't offer anything higher
 
well that is my schedule... except for hte ap thing... im taking honors instead. but my school has a ton of ap and language courses and stuff, so i'll still have classes at my school

but yeah i took 2 languages this eyar..latin and french. and so i have to take 6 finals in 2 weeks haha i cant wait... but yeah its been a really busy year
 
i actually dont have to take that..well i mean i cant take that because i started latin 1 this year, and im a freshman so ill be taking latin 4 my senior year

i took french last year, so i'll take the ap course in that my senior year if i take it

are taking hard classes your senior year worth it? or should you schedule easy?
 
realize its ap us...if you dont know your own countries history then you got some problems. im takin the class also and it shouldnt be hard, you can still ski whenever
 
I'd say it's worth it. I almost wish I'd taken more. You can get a lot of college credit and even if you don't it will prepare you a lot more for classes when you do get to college.
 
im taking AP European History and Ap Language next year. for AP Euro i already got a huge packet thats like 40 pgs long and has 5 ?'s on every other page. who gives hwk over summer?
 
ya, the teachers always try to scare the kids away and make their class sound really hard because they wanna sound tuff. AP US really isnt that hard at all. dont worry.
 
I took AP history last year and all I can say is be prepared to read just about an entire 1000pg text book and be prepared to write 1-2 essays a week preparing you for the AP exam.
 
If your school has them, take them. You'll have a better chance of getting into somewhere good.

I took AP history, but it was the only AP course in my high school. Yeah, my high school sucked.

I still got into the college of my choice, though.
