<p>okay thanks for your input</p>
<p>Has anyone taken the Sat Subject Tests for Math 2 or Chemistry. I heard they are pretty easy and don’t require an AP class to be prepared.</p>
<p>I’m taking Math 2 in May. You only need precalculus knowledge to do well.</p>
<p>@evanb1996: Oh okay that sounds pretty neat, being able to retake quizzes and tests. People at my school say they cheat in their online classes all of the time, so i’m guessing the person over online isn’t doing a good job with watching what her kids are doing.</p>
<p>While chemistry doesn’t require an AP class, per se, you should definitely study outside of class for it. I know a girl who took the Chem subject test and got a 700 by taking Chem I and studying outside of school. It might be smarter to take a subject test in a different subject after an AP class, though. (she got a 790 on US History after taking APUSH).</p>
<p>Does anyone here know how demanding AP Bio and AP English Language are? Or at least how they were at your school.</p>
<p>Took AP Bio this year after testing out of regular bio. The work isn’t hard, there’s just a lot of it. It’s not like chem or physics where you may have to grasp weird concepts. At my school its double period so the class isn’t that intense.</p>
<p>@apollo1974: Oh okay, that’s how my school is also. We receive 90 minutes of instruction everyday for the whole year. No every other day or 3 times a week like other AP programs.</p>
<p>Wow 4 days of inactivity…</p>
<p>I’ve been so inactive on this thread! I’ve been so caught up with school work, friend stuff, a part-time job, and church stuff. I am so glad that I do not have any homework this weekend! My first time this semester I haven’t had homework over the weekend.</p>
<p>Did any of you guys see The Hunger Games? I enjoyed it. I was mad that some things were changed or taken out (Haymitch’s drunken fall at the reaping, the Cornucopia, etc.), I felt it was money well spent.</p>
<p>@evanb1996: I saw the hunger games also. In my opinion the book was a lot better, but the movie wasn’t bad. Have you read all of the books in trilogy? </p>

<p>I’m also part of the class of 2014! I just chose my courses fro Junior year!</p>
<p>Honors Spanish 3 (1)
Pre Calc (1)
AP Government (1)
Honors Chemistry (1)
Accounting 2 (1)
AP Language and Comp. (1)
Child Development 2 (.5)
Gym (.5)</p>
<p>Only 2-3 months left of being underclassmen for all of us. Is everyone ready to be a Junior?</p>
<p>@briannamarie: You are required to take PE your junior year? </p>
<p>@md1114: Oh yes I am, this year has really flown by.</p>
<p>@md1114: Not at all. I’m terrified.</p>
<p>Gym is a 3-year requirement at my school, too.</p>
<p>@lldm21: I am a little nervous also, I have the hardest classes in the grade.</p>
<p>@Nate: xD. That’s not why I’m terrified. The whole “growing up” aspect is what I’m worried about.</p>
<p>My Junior year courses (pending scheduling):</p>
<p>AP Calculus BC
AP European History
AP Microeconomics (self-studying Macro)
AP Biology
AP English - Lit
Honors French V (taking AP French exam, self-studying AP Vergil)
Wind Ensemble, Orchestra</p>
<p>And yeah, I’m pretty happy about the accelerating speed at which high school seems to be passing by…</p>
<p>@nate42: I read all of them. I even wrote a test on The Hunger Games for the Honors English 1 class. The teacher was impressed with it.</p>
<p>Growing up is something that I am kind of scared of. I already have a part time job and my parents are making pay for some of my things (deoderant, etc.) to realize the cost of living already. Since I’m a big saver, I had a problem with spending money on the neccessities. But, I think it is something that my parents are really trying to teach me.</p>
<p>@evanb1996: Same here, I started reading the books when I was in 8th grade and got hooked. Also, have you checked any of your application statuses lately? My SVSM application still says, “Application under review.”</p>
