My school has around 2000+ students (only public high besides a charter in town of 20,000), has a stelite campus for freshman w/ about 800 of 2000 students. Lots of underahieving stoners but also lots of preppy over achievers(me).
I'm a sophomore so I only have 1 Ap but my school offers 14 APs
Next Year for me =
AP English Lang- Apparently a joke, philosophy of school is if you turn up for AP English class you will pass test, my teacher this year is harder.
APUSH - Brutal class, hardest of all, impossible tests, essays, and teacher hard on purpose to make kids suffer, h.w. includes immense amounts of reading w/ identifications (little notes taken on reading on certain topics) checked daily, most people's 4.0 destroyed in this class alone.
AP Physics B - Pretty hard, web assign hw, tests, much easier than AP Chem w/ high pass rate and unlike Chem people get A's and B's on tests instead of c's, d's, f's
Ap Psychology - Really easy, reading, lots of quizes/tests but easy
Pre-Calc Competition - Most likely easy, I'm a math person
Spanish 4 - Easy, rarely homework, fluent speaker (take Spanish b/c french teacher doesn't teach anything (literally, misses almost everyday of school, also no AP French))
AP Stats - Maybe not taking this, really tough at my school cause of bad teacher, mostly involves self teaching, easy hw but tough tests, if I take this it will only be because Stats usually required for a polisci major.
I already spend a lot of time on hw but b/c of my choice. I could do hw faster if I wanted to and next year I will have to. Plan on doing APUSH reading on Sunday (no church means more time, glad I'm agnostic) and other class homework throughout week. I see all classes each day so no putting off hw like block schedule.
I have math team (practice, 1hr/wk= optional), quiz bowl team (practice 1hr/wk; comp 2hr./week sometimes instead of practice, but juniors go to more out of schools competitions than sophomores so might take up more time), National Honors Society (pretty much nothing), Science Fair (lots of time, will drop if can't do project over summer), Student Government (2 meetings/wk = 2.5hr/wk, might not do b/c of meeting times), Debate team (trying to start one, would tell teacher, who is getting PhD, to not make too much time), Key Club (tutoring charity 1/wk, meetings 1/month, not too much time, only thinking of doing for community service hours),
