| What Are the Most Difficult [AP] Courses At Your School?
AP Lang/Comp (although one of the three teachers makes it easy), AP Bio, and AP Physics C are generally regarded as the most difficult courses in our school. How about you? |

| Bio is a GPA killer, United States History is an extraordinary amount of work, Chem is hard (supposedly), and AP Language and Comp is hard (never took it) | |

| AP Bio is great fun with all the material that's covered. Campbell in 8 months is no fun.
However AP English Language is considered the great valedictorian killer at our school - not because it's time consuming. Rather, there is little work involved and the amount that is dictates our grade. APUSH/Euro is hard for those who are unwilling/unable to comprehend the text or listen to lecture. | |

| AP US History can either be impossibly hard or just right depending on which teacher you get. AP Physics is pretty hard just because the teacher doesn't really teach and gives very hard tests. The language AP courses (except German) supposedly are very hard too. | |

| AP Euro is supposed to be a killer at my school, as is APUSH if you get one particular teacher. The AP sciences are also all supposed to be brutal. |

| AP Euro...the course isn't hard, but our teacher is brutal. No one gets past without a B or C. About 50% get D's first semester...it's terrible.
Otherwise it's BC Calc. The teacher can't teach. At all. Actually, she doesn't teach. She just copy out of the textbook and expect us to learn by ourselves, since half of the kids in the class had already taken AB Calc or IB Math II | |

| AB Calc. (We don't have BC) Serious GPA killer. I"m really worried that I'm not going to manage an A this semester.
Otherwise no one class is really bad, its just the combination of all of them. | |
