I’m taking APES because I had an extra block in my schedule this year. APES is really not worth much credit wise, and most colleges don’t look at it very seriously. It’s sort of considered a blow off AP class for those who don’t want to take harder AP classes like AP physics. It’s an interesting class, but if you’re a busy person, I wouldn’t recommend adding this workload because it’s not really worth it. It’s a lott of reading and memorizing but not very hard concepts.
