<p>@imhkim - Yeah, I speak it with my parents at home! (: So if I have the hanyupinying above the words (the things that tell you how they’re pronounced), I can obviously understand it a lot better. Is Spanish 3 the highest level at your school?</p>
<p>When do you guys finish homework and go to bed nowadays?</p>
<p>@catchinginfinity For some strange reason I woke up at 2:30am and couldn’t sleep so I stayed awake. I usually finish by 9pm and sleep at 10.</p>
<p>hahaha that’s pretty neat 
Chinese is actually one of my favorite subjects at school cuz it’s a unique language lol well for sophomores, Spanish 3 honors is the highest level but some native speakers take like Spanish 5 honors in sophomore year. so generally for most sophomores, Spanish 3 honors is the highest. same goes for Chinese 3h, French 3h, and Italian is 2h. </p>
<p>I usually sleep at 1 and wake up at 7. the time I finish my hw really varies. I’m almost done with hw for today (it’s only 6:44 and I actually took a half hour nap so I didn’t have much hw to do) but then I have to do projects and study for tests so yeah. I can def sleep at 12 each night if I concentrate though.</p>
<p>Do you guys have a mandatory Driver’s Education class? my state (NJ) has that and I’m in that class for this first quarter, but idk if other states require sophomores to take that lol ik it varies from state, but do you know if the final state test is hard?</p>
<p>This is really off topic to what you all are talking about right now but do any of you know if there’s a limit to how many times we can do the SAT’s?</p>
<p>@imhkim Haha, you’re the first to notice! And yeah, I see where you’re coming from. Also, Drivers’ Ed isn’t required here in PA. </p>
<p>@Jawmess Gotcha. We’re only on chapter 3, and we already took the unit one test (which was one chapter), so I guess we’re using different books?</p>
<p>I like the updates made to the mobile app ^_^</p>
<p>@imhkim - In NY we start that in junior year I believe! I don’t think it’s required, though.</p>
<p>@eno - Same! It’s a lot more modern looking!</p>
<p>@amica - You can take it however many times you want, but they say it looks bad if you do it more than three times. It’d be pretty ridiculous if you did that anyway.</p>
<p>@amica123- haha yeah just like what catchinginfinity said, I think three times should be the max. but that shouldn’t discourage you from taking more lol</p>
<p>@enotramsolleh- ahhaha am I really? and it’s not required? hahah wow! are you still going to take it though? </p>
<p>@catchinginfinity- ooh that’s cool too! it’s actually kinda funny how my state is like the only state that requires it when our states are the tri-state areas haha</p>
<p>@enotramsolleh you’re so lucky it’s your unit is only 1 chapter. Actually, my unit test was mostly on Mesopotamia, even though my teacher said chapters 1-6 + 10. I officially quit studying for this class because of that test. Last year’s curve was a 60% for an A and now I know why, we all wasted time studying for the 10 questions on the test that weren’t on Mesopotamia.</p>
<p>Driver’s Ed is optional in my state which is usually taken the summer after sophomore year, but summer classes have been cancelled in my school district lol.</p>
<p>@Jawmess - Is this AP World? If it is, savor Mesopotamia while you can…wait until you get into the Indian Ocean Basin/Middle Ages, it gets confusing as heck.</p>
<p>@catchinginfinity I love the Middle Ages though. Oceania was the last thing I learned in geography in 9th grade and Oceania was part of the 1st unit, so your warning does not worry me lol.</p>
<p>On a side note, do you guys think it’ll be a good idea to self study AP Biology, AP Calculus, and take AP USH through school? My school offers both biology and calculus, but the teacher for biology sucks, and only cal ab is offered here. Does self studying look bad? I’m doing USABO prep, so I was thinking that AP biology would be covered by that.</p>
<p>@imhkim I was going to take it this year, but it didn’t fit with the other classes I wanted, so I don’t think I am. I actually don’t really want to drive :P</p>
<p>@Jawmess Geez. You quit studying already? XD</p>
<p>Is anyone interested in giving me a little feed back or critisim(?) about my ECs? If so, please PM me. I know this is CC and I could easily make a thread but those get pretty annoying after awhile and sometimes it ends up looking like bragging a little.</p>
<p>Other than that, I’ve been able to catch up a little in regards to some complaints I made earlier about having a rough start… :rolleyes:</p>
<p>But I went three weeks without a chemistry teacher and it’s been tough trying to get caught up with the other classes. I started freaking out once they brought out the math. Lol, I miss biology a little but I’m excited to actually learn about the different elements.</p>
<p>@enotramsolleh I quit studying for AP World. The curve made a B an A on my unit test now that worries me more lol. I can’t believe I started off with all A’s except Japanese, but idk if I can maintain any of them except math and English</p>
<p>Well, I might as well talk about what I’m doing. So I’m working on self-studying for AP World Tests (my school doesn’t offer AP World as a course, cause it’s kinda weird the way it works) and biology (cause my last high school I transferred out of only offered ‘Integrated Science’) Extracurricular wise, I am running in cross country (one of only two boys on the entire team with 3 other girls representing a school of about 300) Am working on starting a community service club, but it’s been frustrating. Might do Odyssey of the mind with some kids in Science Club, which I’m curious to see how colleges perceive. Also on student council, and juggling around ideas on how to actually lighten up the campus mood cause right now it’s depressing (granted this is my first year here, I am a sophomore). Hmm…</p>
<p>@Jawmess - Middle Ages as in European Middle Ages…where did Oceania come from? Hahah, but everyone “gets” different things. It’s just a lot of connections and cause/effect. (:</p>
<p>@letmeseetheworld - Woah, three weeks without a teacher. Did you just have one sub the entire three weeks? That’s ridiculous…unless she’s pregnant or something.</p>
<p>Yes, we just had the same sub the entire time. There was work left for us to do related to what we were suppose to be doing in class but ofcourse no one took it seriously. The teacher we were initially suppose to have at the beginning of the school year moved and ended up getting a job closer to where she lived so I don’t think it was planned for her to not come back or anything like that. Also, my school is on A/B schedule so three weeks is really only…8 class periods? That’s still a lot of time gone though.</p>
<p>@catchinginfinity oops I read that wrong haha. But I do like Europe though. My class is doing an FRQ and we chose to compare china and egypt and idk how their technology is similar. And I just took the longest set of notes I’ve ever taken just because the teacher wants specificity.</p>
