High School Class of 2014

<p>@Hannah isn’t it dreadful :/? I literally today in World History started reading the text book because I was not learning nothing. It’s like I can’t wait to go in class but when I get there it’s like -_____-. My American history teacher last year gave me and other students a challeging alternative to an assignment… WHY CAN’T HE DO THAT !!! </p>

<p>Also am so mad that my school is the last NYC and perhaps America to start clubs at the end of the month.</p>

<p>@FollowTheReaper In my AP Chemistry class, we have quiz corrections and we have to explain why we got an answer wrong and record the right answer. Test corrections are not common in my school, but in my Algebra II class last year, we had test corrections which gave us a chance to redeem ourselves also, by having these corrections, it gave us a better understanding of the concepts.</p>

<p>We get 1/4 of a point back for each one test correction in our AP Chem class</p>

<p>Man, that would help so much in my Physics class. Wish we had that :/</p>

<p>@Hannah: I have homework for chapter 8 tonight. It amazes me how much of Pageant I’ve read in only 2.5 weeks.</p>

<p>My only slow class is my computer class. Most of the kids in there think reading the textbook/listening to the teacher tell us what to do is pointless- they sleep, scribble on things, and zone when he’s teaching, so he repeats things over and over again, but then when we get to actually handling the towers everyone’s alert. They don’t seem to understand that if they pay attention the first time, he’s not going to repeat himself, meaning we’ll get to take things apart faster. -____-</p>

<p>I wish we got credit for correcting questions. We’re supposed to do it, but our grade stays the same.</p>

<p>My Lang teacher rounded my vocab. quiz grade up to a 100 today; I think it’s because she accidentally took off three points for no reason o_O.</p>

<p>i can’t believe that so many of you are taking ap chem. <em>shudders</em>
is anyone taking ap bio? i bombed the first quiz and i haven’t even read any of the three chapters that we were supposed to read and we have a test next week.
does anyone know if there’s a review book for the new curriculum out yet?</p>

<p>@aerophane I’m taking AP Biology, and it’s really stressful lol. I think the review books are coming out next year. I’m not completely sure.</p>

<p>I just looked at my grades, and they all went down just like that.</p>

<p>AP Biology: 89%
AP Chemistry: 81%
American Studies II: 88%
Latin I: 93%</p>

<p>Personally, I would like an A in AP Bio and in Amer. Studies, and I don’t really mind the B in AP Chemistry…because it’s AP CHEMISTRY! My dad will kill me if he saw my grades. Mid-Terms is on the 28th, so I have to get my AP Bio and Amer. Studies grade to at least a low A.</p>

<p>I’m taking ap bio, what textbook do you guys use?</p>

<p>^ We are using BIOLOGY AP* EDITION Eight Edition Campbell Reece.</p>

<p>I think I’m going to run an experiment this week; I’m going to finish all of my work before doing anything non-productive (including CC). Now that I’m actually getting hours of homework in 5 out of 7 classes, I’m getting behind to the point of no return.</p>

<p>The purpose is to see how much time I’m actually wasting due to my procrastination, to see how much of my stress is unnecessary, and to see if I can get to bed at a reasonable hour. I think my grades may go up as well (I have a few B’s at the moment). Wish me luck!</p>

<p>I’m using the Biology AP Edition Ninth Edition by Campbell Reece</p>

<p>We also used the Campbell book for Honors Bio (but not the AP Edition). I swear that one was more difficult to read…</p>

<p>Anyone getting iPhone 5? </p>

<p>To me its not worth it…looks like 4 and 4S :/</p>

<p>^ No, the iPhone 4 at AT&T is 0.99 cents with contract. I think the iPhone 5 is a waste to be honest.</p>

<p>I already have 4s. It’s a waste</p>

<p>I got a 92% on my first pre-calc test. I feel like a should have done much better, since the test was on functions… </p>

<p>Oh well, I got the highest score on my ap chem test, 19/25.</p>

<p>Doing well in all my class so far :slight_smile:
It has been about a month and here is how I am doing:</p>

<p>Calculus 3 - Don’t have exact assigned grade, but I have gotten 100% on all but 3/9 quizzes and he drops the lowest 3. Also, we just had our first exam last Thursday and I am pretty sure I did very well on it.
AP Environmental Science - 96.8%, easily one of the most interesting, applicable classes I have taken
AP US History - 96.4%, still missing an assignment though, but I kick butt at this class :smiley:
Physics - 100.5%, and I am missing six assignments, haha. This class is a joke, but it is regular physics, I guess. It’s required at my school before taking AP Physics.</p>

<p>So jealous of everybody who has grades. We have received tests and some other things back and so far I have all As, but we have not been graded on much. Monday I have an APUSH test on the first four chapters of the textbook so I guess I will see how that goes…</p>

<p>Anyone use pupilpath? It’s like an online gradebook. U can see your grades, report cards, transcripts and more. Wish my school had AP Bio :frowning: but i’m taking AP Chem and physics. Physics is too easy and AP chem isnt even hard. Pre calc is easy too.</p>

<p>I use pupil path:).</p>

<p>What exactly is pupil path?</p>
