<p>AP English 11
APUSH
AP Chemistry
Intro to Calc (I was supposed to be in AP Calc AB, but my new school wants me to take this class instead. I might try to study for the AP test depending on how this class goes.)

<p>And it’s going to be my junior year so I’m not sure colleges will be too fond of my “choice” -____-</p>
<p>How many people here have to pay for AP classes? Not like the ones you self study for, but the ones that are taught in school. My county of schools is making parents pay half the cost of AP exams ($42.50 per exam) and PSAT ($15 or $25).</p>
<p>^ We have to pay the full cost of every exam. I wish my school reimbursed us for scoring 5s.</p>
<p>Junior year schedule:</p>
<p>AP Literature
AP US History
AP Art History
AP Statistics
AP Biology
AP Physics</p>
<p>^ We have to pay the full cost of every exam. I wish my school reimbursed us for scoring 5s.
^ Same here.</p>
<p>Ha, we don’t have to pay at all for exams. We only have to pay if we want to cancel an exam (like $10). That’s why I think I’m going to just sign up for a bunch of AP exams even if I fail, because I don’t really lose anything if I do. =p</p>
<p>What EC’s do y’all plan to do in Junior Year?</p>
<p>My school doesn’t have FBLA(wierd right?) so I’ll probably start that. The Stock Market Club was recently restarted after a brief hiccup. I wanna be more active in Robotics so I can take a leadership position next year like Finance Director. I really need to volunteer more and do more stuff. Maybe I’ll start a kpop club w/ friends for lols though my parents would flip ****.</p>
<p>ECs junior year?
Um. Not many. My school doesn’t have many ECs haha.</p>
<p>Science bowl, golf, psychology club, band, NHS, a charity club like key club, and that’s about it.</p>
<p>I want to make a science olympiad team but all of my friends hate biology. I had to convince them to join the science bowl team asdkflasdfk;</p>
<p>LOOOL KPOP CLUB I WOULD TOTALLY COME TO YOUR SCHOOL AND JOIN. XD
i have friends who are otakus like I am (though they don’t like kpop or kdramas -sadface-) and we wanted to start a club but the school was like noooooo you have to do stuff that benefits the community.</p>
<p>xD</p>
<p>Lol, we have Science Olympiad, Math Club, and Academic Decathlon, but virtually no one joins them. My friend’s in Science Olympiad, and her team didn’t go to a single competition
this year. In my freshman year we only had 3 members on our team (a full team consists of 9 members, 3 in each division, not including alternates). No wonder the reigning champions in our state for 12 years in a row has been our rival high school. It’s just too hard to recruit new members for AcaDeca at our school.</p>
<p>You wouldn’t be able to come gomdorri… It’s a guys school :)</p>
<p>I’m not a big fan of biology myself. Probably cause I didn’t pay attention in Honors Bio during Frosh and played with my ipod during class (ok I was dumb).</p>
<p>What is an otaku? I know absolutely no korean 
except for teddy bear :)</p>
<p>I haven’t signed up for any charitable and community serving clubs and stuff but now that you mention it I probably should. My school has Interact but i walked in there once and it was utter pandemonium. and remarkably asian o.O</p>
<p>Varsity wrestling, varsity track & field (pole vault, jumping), varsity golf, varsity tennis, Robotics Club, job over the summer and that’s about it. I was going to run XC but I dropped it because I don’t really like running lol.</p>
<p>I might do either cheerleading or football next year just for fun, depends on how swamped I am with college admissions.</p>
<p>Oh.
otaku is Japanese, not Korean haha. Otaku is what anime nerds call themselves, to give you a really vague definition LOL.</p>
<p>You shouldn’t if you don’t want to. I used to be in more than what I am in now, but it was insanely monotonous and boring so I just quit them all. I don’t regret it one bit.</p>
<p>I want to join volleyball but I’m too late lol.</p>

<p>“I might do either cheerleading … next year just for fun.”</p>
<p>Good for lols and picking up chicks? :D</p>
<p>And with one hasty blow, MutaRiSC hath felled the thread.</p>
<p>No LOL CC forums are usually like this; it’s not that you killed the board, it’s that it was already semi-dead in the first place LOL</p>
<p>Hey guys, so I had one quick question for next year. I need a backpack that can hold my 17 in. macbook pro, 4 textbooks, 2-3 binders, and a notebook and I was wondering if you guys have any suggestions of durable, very large backpacks. Last year, I used skateboarding backpacks(such as fox and element) that had enough room but they aren’t really that durable(I went through 2 last year). So, any help you guys could give would be great.</p>
<p>Whew. I experienced a stabbing, guilty feeling 
.</p>
<p>Does HSL become more vibrant during the school year? It has to be in order to reach >800K posts…</p>
<p>@aj1996</p>
<p>I use a burton snowboarding backpack. It looked less durable in person than on the website but it is still going strong.</p>
<p>It’s not very deep (think width in V=L<em>W</em>H) but I’m sure I could manage 2-3 binders if they were really thin. No way could I manage to fit 4 text books (thats really bad for your shoulders, I did it last year). </p>
<p>I don’t want to tell you what to do but unless your teachers absolutely require a binder for each class, I would combine them and keep old homework and tests in your locker. Again, your descision but thats my 2 cents</p>
<p>Its primarily because I go to a boarding school(as a day student) so the teachers don’t make it a priority to limit how much stuff we need for homework because 2/3 of the students live on campus and all of their books are in their rooms. Also, most of my teachers don’t tell us what the homework is in class but they post it on our online website(usually LONG after day students leave school), so over the weekend I could take home 4-5 textbooks, but only use like 1 or 2.</p>
