High School Class of 2014

<p>I feel all Fridays should be early release days. I know that most of my friends that are in college are done with all of their classes by 12 or 1 in college.</p>

<p>How many APs do you guys say is to many for junior year?</p>

<p>@evanb1996: Oh alright, if its for minorities then I can’t do it. But thanks!</p>

<p>@gnastygnorc: All people are different when it comes to the amount of strenuous classes they can take, and still do well in all of them. I would say 4 is about my limit for AP’s in a single year. If you go over that you will be really pushing it.</p>

<p>@evanb1996: I researched the program a little and I saw that it is during school. I don’t think I could miss 3 days and not get behind in my classes.</p>

<p>@gnastygnorc I’ll be taking 5, but they’re all mangeable save for AP Physics. The difficulty of the classes should be taken into account.</p>

<p>^ I wish my school offered 5 AP’s for juniors. I am very lucky to be just taking 2. I really had to fight to take them since most juniors at my school only take honors.</p>

<p>@catch I’m with Studious! I kill Earth Science questions. Though, overall I’m the resident government/history/geography/current events guy.</p>

<p>I’m taking 5 or 6 APs next year. Then 7 senior year. My school isn’t very hard, though. Even so, it’s going to be a tough two years.</p>

<p>Summer programs update:</p>

<p>I have finished my Summer@Brown essay! Does anyone want to read it/give me tips?</p>

<p>I’m applying to another science internship… Agh February is not going to be a fun month. AMC 10 and 12, district debate tournament, UVA debate tournament, WACFL 5 debate tournament, and three summer program apps. Might as well lock myself in a cold room and work for ten hours straight every day. I can’t see how I’ll finish this month successfully otherwise…</p>

<p>I’d love to read it Studious! Relay it my way.</p>

<p>Studious, have you ever been to Robinson?</p>

<p>What’s Robinson? A high school?</p>

<p>yeah it’s in Northern Virginia and it sounded like you did a lot of the activities at Robinson. I’m in WACFL too. LD or PF?</p>

<p>Yeah, I think I did a tournament there actually. I do public forum. VHSL districts this Saturday!</p>

<p>yeah, we had Super Saturday in December. I’m excited for the next WACFL tournament next weekend. :slight_smile: I do Public Forum as well, haha.</p>

<p>Cool, will you be competing in Varsity?</p>

<p>Sorry this is kinda off the subject but I’m about to go on a teacher rant.</p>

<p>Okay first off, my Chem teacher has a website where he posts everything that we are doing for that week and all of the notes for his class. I just so happened to look and see what we are doing this week and I was utterly dumbfounded. He has scheduled 3 quizzes and a test! I am guessing that our tests that we toke on Friday were terrible…
But its really not our fault, there was at least 5 questions on it that he hasn’t even mentioned. This is one thing that really makes me mad when a teacher doesn’t prepare me for a test and I make a B or a C on it. In your opinion do you think my teacher is just in doing this?
I have never made a B in my life and I don’t plan on one teacher screwing it up for me.</p>

<p>People get bad teachers all the time… there’s nothing you can really do about it unless you want to switch teachers? And… “Oh no!” <em>Gasp</em> a B!</p>

<p>haven’t followed this thread for a while…</p>

<p>**Who else is taking AP gov. exam this year? ** I’m taking the class in school and getting As in the class. But the tests our teacher gave us were actually very hard. I don’t know how close his tests are to the national exam. I’m nervous about the exam in May. Is anybody else taking it? how do you plan to study for it?</p>

<p>I’m also taking AP gov right now, though I don’t find the tests hard at all. They’re all multiple choice and I don’t study. So if the national exam is like the ones in my class then I’ll just review a little the week before…</p>

<p>I collect all my college emails in a little folder. I have 200 something right now lol</p>

<p>Looks like there’s going to be 3 of us competing varsity at this months wacfl ;D</p>
