AP Lang is EASY, don’t even bother taking the class you just have to know how to write a decent analytical/argumentative essay. Don’t know anything about physics or calc. With AP Lang though chances are you’ll get a lot of busy work-- taking notes and doing annotations, essay prompts, etc. APUSH is easy too it’s just a sheer truckload of information. Not gonna lie, some of the units might seem a little dry but if you’re into history and politics and that sort of thing you’ll probably enjoy it. APWH was much more interesting. For APUSH you’ll need to know a lot of policies and names and stuff. The writing part is so easy if you know what’s going on but you’ll need to know how to break down documents quickly and analyze them, similar to AP Lang. For the multiple choice, you need to do a good job of analyzing, but quickly enough so you manage your time well. It’s not necessarily like a traditional standardized test like the SAT but there are specific things you should have down. Junior year a lot of people get burned out by the sheer workload so maybe consider what you did last year and how you were able to manage it. Calc BC is pretty work heavy I’ve heard and for APUSH I pretty much guarantee you’ll be assigned notes, packets, readings, or a combination of the three. Also, if you’re pursuing a major in history or politics, I recommend taking APUSH, but at the same time, make sure you’re not biting off more than you can chew.
