<p>Indeed.</p>
<p>I have some reading and some problems (i think) for ap cal.</p>
<p>@Animefan1998 We just watched To Live in IBMYP VA/US Comp Gov! (We’re learning about totalitarianism and Maoist China).
@TeamRocketGrunt A Clockwork Orange is really good.</p>
<p>hi everyone!! :). I am new to CC. Has anyone decided when they will take ACT/SAT?</p>
<p>@animefan1998
I read for the heck of it, but I have a list that I need to read.
-The other two books of the divergent series
-The Fault in our stars
-Percy Jackson series</p>
<p>@jumpingstar
I have the same problem also. I don’t think I will be able to do a AP class in high school. I will be taking two honor classes next year ( my first I ever done ) so I probably wouldn’t qualify to do AP.</p>
<p>@babyblue98 Already taken the SAT once. Hope to improve my school the first test in the 2014-15 school year.</p>
<p>@Woandering
How was it? I heard ACT is a lot easier the SAT. I am taking the ACT probably somewhere in fall.</p>
<p>@babyblue98
Took the ACT already (35 yo*). Taking the SAT in the fall. </p>
<p>*Shameless bragging swag</p>
<p>@babyblue98 </p>
<p>You’re reading Percy Jackson and The Fault in Our Stars when you’re almost a junior? Not to be rude, but SATs and stuff are testing vocab from higher levels of reading; those books are considered to be for a middle school audience. There are a lot of really nice “high-end” books that you might like if you like that stuff though, like the winners of the Hugo and Nebula awards.</p>
<p>Also, @TeamRocketGrunt, that 35 is so…ugh. You got it as a freshman?</p>
<p>I choked badly this semester. It feels like a large majority of sophomores grades plummeted this semester though.</p>
<p>@Apollo11 S/he could just be reading the books for fun. Not everything has to be about studying</p>
<p>@SwaggyC yeah… Ugh I think I might get two A-'s as opposed to my 4.0 first semester… God managing sports with school and other extracurriculars suckkkk asssssss</p>
<p>@TeamRocketGrunt god I hate you! So ashamed of my ACT score… But at least I haven’t even taken the real thing yet. How did you study? </p>
<p>@Apollo11 nope. Got it as a sophy. It was the October 2013 one. </p>
<p>@jumpingstar Took a few practice exams the month prior to the exam. Oh, and I did SAT math instead of ACT math. I initially gave myself 8 minutes to solve the last 10 problems in each SAT math section (last 10 are the hardest), and I managed to get my time down to ~7 minutes/10 problems by the time the ACT rolled around. Still only managed a 34 on the math, but that’s because I suck at coordinate geometry, which made up the last five problems lmao </p>
<p>@SwaggyC Sophomore year sucks. Hopefully Junior year will make up for it, or I’m screwed. </p>
<p>@Apollo11
I’m just reading them for fun since I didn’t really enjoy reading when I was in middle school. </p>
<p>I messed up my freshmen year. My sophomore year I was on it. I know most of you are mostly smarter then me, but all of use have the same goal… to go to college/university</p>
<p>@Bardinators
I was just stating that if it was for studying, certain books would better fit them</p>
<p>“Not everything has to be about studying”
Lies.</p>
<p>@Apollo11<br>
How is that lies? </p>
