Online: Ap human geography (the online class is yearlong and ive heard it was pretty easy, should I think about adding another online class? (somthing like Ap world hist?) </p>

<p>Now im debating if i should or shouldnt take 2 online AP’s</p>

<p>WACFL Metro Finals took place this weekend. My partner and I took third in our region and qualified for the national (NCFL) tournament! The competition was extremely tough, and I feel lucky to have made it through.</p>

<p>^ Congrats. Not lucky, but well deserved. (:</p>

<p>On a side note, when do you guys plan to take your SATs (or have you guys already taken them)? </p>

<p>And since I post here like once a month, some updates: I got accepted for an internship at NIH; I’m quite pleased, although I have no idea what to expect, really. Also, just this past friday (and yesterday) my school’s robotics team competed in the regionals. It was fun (my first year on the robotics team), but we didn’t do as well as last year (came in fourth). I hope to contribute more next year; this year Robotics conflicted with my schedule… and in the week I wasn’t there, the team dismantled and practically rebuilt the whole thing. ._.</p>

<p>Any plans you guys are looking forward to (during spring break or summer vacation)?</p>

<p>I recently applied for a new school called SAS Where you complete your last two years of highschool and first two years of college combined. Passes the admissions test, awaiting my acceptance letter!!!</p>

<p>^^^ Fashion club? What do you do there?</p>

<p>@1017bricksquad: How do you even have enough time in the day to take 9 or 10 classes? My school only lets you take 7 classes, although you could probably make room for 8, I can’t imagine 9, lol.</p>

<p>Hey everyone!</p>

<p>First time poster–just thought I’d join the class thread. Currently a sophomore in the IBMYP program. My schedule:</p>

<p>AP Government (the only AP class my school offers)
Precalculus with Trigonometry (basically an honors class)
Health/PE 10 (last year of gym ever!)
Journalism 2
English 10 Honors
French 3
IB Chemistry I (basically honors chem)</p>

<p>Current GPA is around 4.2 (we only know our weighted GPAs). Took my PSAT twice (freshman year score: 172; sophomore year score:180)</p>

<p>Will be pursuing full IB diploma. Haven’t signed up for courses yet, but my plan is:</p>

<p>IB English HL
IB History of the Americas (declare as HL my senior year)
IB Biology SL (one year course–taking exam May 2013)
IB French I (declare as HL my senior year)
IB Math I SL
IB Business and Management SL (one year course–taking exam May 2013)
Journalism 3
IB Theory of Knowledge (after school)</p>

<p>That means my senior year I will take:
IB English II HL
IB 20th Century Topics HL
IB French II HL
IB Math II SL
IB Chemistry II (SL or HL haven’t decided which)
IB Physics I (need physics to graduate, but not taking test since it’s a two year course)
Journalism 4
IB Theory of Knowledge (after school)</p>

<p>My dream is to work in journalism. I work on the school paper. Currently, I hold the copy editor position and by senior year I hope to be a managing editor. </p>

<p>Other extracurriculars include NHS and French Honor Society. I volunteer each weekend at a local community center and tutor young children. Plus, each summer I am a volunteer camp counselor at a science camp for elementary age kids. I also plan to volunteer at my library branch. I hope to intern at a local newspaper before I graduate as well. </p>

<p>I don’t do any sports. My parents wanted me to be academically strong rather than physically.</p>

<p>I’m applying to University of Florida, UNC at Chapel Hill, Virginia Tech, and UVA for sure. I’ll be over the moon to get into any of them. </p>

<p>Sorry to give you my life story–ask me any questions or talk to me about anything! I’ll be sure to respond :)</p>

<p>Erm, my schedule isn’t set in stone yet, but I signed up for:
Microeconomics AP
Government and Politics, U.S. AP
English Language and Comp AP
Math Analysis
Chemistry
Psychology AP
Graphic Design I
Spanish IV AC </p>

<p>Alternates:
Programming, Visual Basic<br>
Photography I
Sports, Lifetime I</p>

<p>@lexap123: Welcome to the thread! Do you go to an IB school on the East Coast? I guessed because your junior and senior year schedules are full of IB courses. Also, your college choices are typical of an East Coaster’s. I’m from the East Coast too and I am looking at UNC-CH and UVA.</p>

<p>Hey so I come on here every few months because I’m way too busy to check in every day, but here is my Junior schedule</p>

<p>AP English 11
AP Calc AB
AP US History
CP Physics
Leadership
French III</p>

<p>This year I took
English H 10
Alg II/Trig H
AP World History
AP Biology
Play Production (I go to a magnet school for the arts)
Show Choir</p>

<p>First semester I got a 3.33(weighted…) gpa… Really bad I know, but my grades arent nearly as bad this semester, and i should have at least a 4.17, (weighted)</p>

<p>I’m not really sure what else i’m supposed to say… so I’ll leave it there…</p>

<p>There seems to be a lot of IB kids who live in Virginia in this thread. o.o</p>

<p>Anyways, I’ve posted this in another place, but I want to get some feedback from the people in this thread:</p>

<p>(Long post, how do you collapse things in this forum?)</p>

<p>I have a good idea of which HLs I want to take for my classes next year, but I absolutely detest the two subjects in the other two categories. My school only offers History and Business & Management for Group 3, and my only option for Group 2 is Spanish. I can’t stand writing history papers and I don’t want to learn Spanish. I’m not sure if colleges care a lot about the “diploma” part though, or if they’ll be happy with hard IB classes.</p>

<p>I signed up for these classes for now but I can still change them:</p>

<p>English Lit HL
Math HL II (I am currently taking HL I in 10th grade.)
Art HL
Bio HL
Spanish SL
History of the Americas SL
Orchestra (This is here to stay.)
Obligatory TOK</p>

<p>If I could get rid of Spanish and History, it would be:</p>

<p>English Lit HL
Math HL II
Art HL
Bio HL
Physics SL (11th grade)/Chem SL II (12th grade)
Music HL
Orchestra</p>

<p>(Or some other combination of sciences)</p>

<p>One issue with this is that my state requires 4 history credits, so I would have to take 2 additional history classes online.</p>

<p>Also, I want to major in something animation or animal science related. I know art schools don’t care much about academics, but I’ve heard that liberal arts schools do take academics very seriously even if you’re majoring in an art field.</p>

<p>@Globalwolf: Don’t most colleges require two years of a foreign language? Or is that just colleges in my state?</p>

<p>@evanb1996 Yes I go to an IB world school in VA, so I would apply to UVA and Virginia Tech in-state.</p>

<p>Wow, I have been absent from this thread/CC in general for a very long time.</p>

<p>Hello everyone.</p>

<p>I’m doing a dual enrollment program next year, so the only classes I will be taking at my high school are AP English 3 and Honors Chem. And maybe APUSH.</p>

<p>@Satine: I dunno, but right now I’m enrolled in my 3rd year of Spanish… IB Spanish I and II would make it 5 years in total.</p>

<p>haha no…i decided to take off ap world hist online (too much work). Ap bio and ap chem makes ur schedule atleast 10x harder</p>
