For AP Spanish, I have about 500 words to memorize, 40 pages of exercises to do, and I'm supposed to be trying to absorb as much Spanish as I can by reading and watching Spanish TV...but I'm not

For APUSH, I have to read Chapters 2-6 of "The American Pageant", with 4 pages of notes per page.

For AP Bio, I have to read "Survival of the Sickest" by Sharon Moalem and be prepared to write an essay about it when we go back to school

For APEL, I have to read East of Eden and have 20 quotes and commentaries on the quotes.

For AP Literature I have to read Pride & Prejudice, Go Tell It on the Mountain, A Streetcar Named Desire, Crime & Punishment, Great Expectations, How to Read Literature like a Professor (which actually is good), and parts of the bible.
