<p>I joined a long time ago, but took a hiatus and then forgot my password. So I created a new one, had this one for about 3 or 4 weeks? Still remember the old members, Maverick and Apollo are the first names that come to mind…the good old days.</p>
<p>@taeny - My friend likes Johnyun from Shinee whoever that is hahah.</p>
<p>jonghyun! hahaah he’s really good at singing! :)</p>
<p>hhaah 3-4 weeks is still pretty long! longer than me, at least haha I’ll remember a lot of you guys’ usernames too! I’ll know yours for sure, catchinginfinity, since its somehow saved in my phone and pops up in autocorrect LOL wait so that means that you were on college confidential even before high school started? omg that’s so cool!</p>
<p>Yeah, jonghyun <3! He’s my bias, lol. @catching - yup. And I fell asleep at 4 last night instead of finishing my homework… and studying for the two major tests i have soon.</p>
<p>lol!!! i start school next week i haven’t finished summer reading yet (such a procrastinator)… two more books to go! I just finished Uncle Tom’s Cabin and Song of Solomon for my U.S. literature class. Two (in my opinion) very distinct books. My English books for sophomore year compared to freshman year (Romeo and Juliet, To Kill a Mockingbird, Bless Me, Ultima, Importance of Being Earnest) are more complex than the ones we had to read before.</p>
<p>My schools already started a while ago.
It’s the weekend and already I want to go back to school (Not that I like it that much), but it’s that my mom is really loud and I don’t get enough sleep. But seriously, I’m bored to tears.</p>
<p>Yea same, Aug 19th here…
I don’t get it…why can’t school start after labor day and end around the end of may. Here is drags on from aug 19 to june 10th or something :(</p>
<p>I start school on Tuesday. I decided to not think about school supply shopping because our teachers will tell us specifically what we need anyways. :P</p>
<p>@imhkim nah, i’m not korean. just in love with kdramas and kpop .__.</p>
<p>I don’t have any AP’s at my school, so i was wondering…what’s the difference between classes like AP World History/whatever you guys are taking and the “regular/academic” classes in your school? Is it the same material, but more work? Or more work AND more in-depth? I go to a school in Canada and we don’t have many schools with AP’s in our district…</p>
<p>@liking - APs follow a completely different curriculum. It’s supposedly a “college course”, except offered at high schools for HS students. By getting a “passing score” (3-5) on a test, you can get college credit at most colleges (4-5 for the more “elite” colleges). It’s generally both more work and more in-depth. </p>
<p>Imho (at least in my experience) you can focus better in AP classes because there aren’t any of the less motivated kids who misbehave & scream out random things the whole time, distracting the entire class. The outbursts are 95% of the time hilarious, but ultimately you don’t learn much with those kids around…</p>
