<p>For the record: I received a 4 junior year, and did just fine. That’s why I’m so adamant on encouraging you to do this. I ended up just fine in the course. In fact, weirdly enough, I retained more info. than a lot of the people w/5s and ended up reteaching them some material before the first exam to them simply because it made more sense to me (I taught myself a lot of the stuff that wasn’t on the AP exam). Soria’s class is simply about keeping up and working hard. Too many people think that it should come natural simply because “I got a 5” or “I’m an Emory Scholar”. They believe they deserve an A when they step foot in the door and don’t work as hard as their peers.</p>
