<p>im screaming. my teachers daughter is in my class at my school. no one likes my chemistry teacher and there are mixed feelings anout her daughter. anyays on sunday night i tweeted about how i was going to add someone (her daughter) on snapchat to see my teacher drunk. a bunch of my friends told me she was dancing drunk and her daughter put it on her snapchat story. anyways today her daughter stalked for my twitter i guess and found me and just went off on me. i am so worried that my teacher is going to assasinate me tomorrow or i might go to the office or something. whtever i did not even mean to hurt her feelings or whatever anyone would want to see their teacher drunk its funny. but her daughter was so made but what i dont understand is that she is the one who put it on snapchat in the first place?!! she tweeted at me shes like my mom wasnt even drunk i totally bit my tounge and just was so apologetic and all but her mom was definetley not holding a glass of water and drinking. no one drinks with a glass in their hand so she needs to stop. this is all so blown out of proprtion. im sorry but does anyone have advice to deal with the teacher tomorrow??? her daughter accepted my apology but still… i feel like she should apologize to me because first of all she took my tweet the wrong way and second of all she was so rude in her tweet back at me. i laughed so hard though becaude she insulted my dancing at homecoming i was like how old are you do i really give a flying ferret. anyways yeah she needs to take a chill pill and stop pointing the finger at me. i just dont know how im going to go to school tomorrow… arghh.</p>
<p>@topaz1116 But my teacher puts grades on the essay that literally say “C-/C” and “B+/A-” and I have no idea what number that is</p>
<p>Maybe… a 89.5, or a 72.5? Because there’s a bit of a gray line there for some…</p>
<p>Also, our Winterguard theme this year is Maleficent, and I’m really happy 
We just started learning the routine, though, and it’s pretty difficult–especially doing it quickly. The fact that I was pushed up against a condiments stand (we practice in a cafeteria) and I was afraid to toss my flag due to the fact that it had already hit the condiments stand several times didn’t exactly help.</p>
<p>I have a lot of homework this weekend:</p>
<ul>
<li><p>3 essays for AP World History all need to be peer reviewed and due Friday, so I need to finish them this weekend so I have time for peer reviews. I haven’t even started. We have to do an essay packet of 3 essays every month.</p></li>
<li><p>Need to finish reading Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass: An American slave. I’m only 30 pages in.</p></li>
</ul>
<p>-I then need to write an essay on the book and some pro-slavery passages we had to read</p>
<p>-Need to read a chapter in AP World History book</p>
<p>-AP Chemistry online homework</p>
<p>I’m using this chrome extension called StayFocusd which’ll limit the time I can spend on certain websites (such as this one). That’ll help me keep focused so I can actually finish all this!</p>
<p>I have been trying to convince my mom that I should take AP Environmental Science (which is actually a very rigorous/difficult course at my school; all the AP sciences are really difficult at my school) instead of AP Bio (I hate most aspects of biology; genetics, immunology, and evolution are the only exceptions). </p>
<p>I think she’s starting to listen to my points… But she keeps telling me to take it at the community college, even though I tried that last summer and dropped out within two days because the course material was absurdly easy–stuff I’ve known since, like, sixth grade. And I was the youngest person there by ~3 or 4 years, which was really awkward because it was a small class (20-ish people) and I kept answering questions. I actually like environmental science, so I’d like to actually learn something in the class (although APES is hard at my school, the teacher is really, really good; my main concern is that there won’t be a class next year due to lack of interest xD I heard they were talking about cancelling it because there are only around 20 people in the class this year).</p>
<p>She also wants me to take a language all four years so I can fulfill my college language requirements. Yeah, no. I don’t like Spanish; I’d prefer to learn Latin or Greek in college. </p>
<p>Hey Guys! </p>
<p>This Is my intended Junior Year Schedule. Please give me feedback on whether it is too much or too less! All help will be appreciated!</p>
<p>AP Biology
AP Chemistry
AP World History
AP Language and Composition
AP Human Geography
Honors Pre-Calculus
Honors Biochemistry (2.5 credits)
Honors Spanish 4
Honors Trigonometry (2.5 credits)</p>
<p>Should I switch Honors Trigonometry and Honors Biochemistry to some other easier electives? Should I take one less AP Course? I need help!</p>
<p>Trig isn’t too difficult, and it’s an integral part of Precalculus. APHG is just generally regarded as a joke. Bio and Chem, depending on your school, can be pretty hard; although with them, Biochem as a side course seems a bit unnecessary. My school doesn’t have Lang, so I can’t say anything about that. However, I’d suggest you only take an AP English course if you’re doing well in an Honors English course or something…</p>
<p>I think that Environmental Science is quite boring. </p>
<p>@adidas15 At my school an AP class gives, on average 80 minutes of work/day. And honors class give an average of 40 minutes. Standard classes give 20.</p>
<p>Needless to say, your schedule would result over 9 solid hours of work every night, at my school.</p>
<p>Here is my potential Junior schedule. I would appreciate all comments and suggestions!!</p>
<p>AP Chem
AP Lang
AP Stat
APUSH
H Chinese 3
H Spanish 5
H Latin 2</p>
<p>This will take about 7 hours a night. It is a full schedule. And then there are ECs</p>
<p>@Spiral7 7 hours of homework seems like a lot, I start my homework around 4 or 5 every day and if I had that much homework I’d be up till 11 or 12 (and I don’t even have ECs). I’m taking AP Chem and AP Lang right now and neither of them give me that much homework a day. Hopefully they’ll give you less than an hour or else that’s a lot. And I’ve never seen anyone take 3 languages before.</p>
<p>Here’s my junior schedule if anyone wants to comment. The classes marked as AP/IB means I’m taking the IB equivalent but you all might not be familiar with IB classes:</p>
<p>1.AP/IB English Literature
2.AP Calculus BC
3.AP/IB US History
4.AP Biology
5.IB SL Spanish 1 (equal to Honors Spanish 3)
6.Not sure, choices are AP Psychology, IB World Religions, AP Computer Science, or for my VAPA credit, AP Art History or SL Visual Arts. Which should I take?</p>
<p>@dsi411 Psych is incredibly interesting; I’ve heard that with APCS (at least at my school), all the people who already know CS set the curve, so if you don’t know much about CS, you’re at a major disadvantage. Really, take anything that you’re particularly interested in. Make sure the teachers are good, though.</p>
<p>Your schedules make me feel really insecure… I mean, I know people who are taking six weighted classes at my school, but their APs are the easy APs (except APUSH) and one of their classes is a language (languages are DE). I’ll only be taking </p>
<p>I’m taking:
H. English 11 (basically equivalent to Lang, except my school doesn’t offer Lang; UC weighted)
AP Calculus BC
AP Physics 1
AP Chemistry OR AP Environmental Science (APES is actually a really hard course at my school, and so is Chem; I’m deciding which one would be more useful to me when doing internships the summer before senior year, and I’ll take the other senior year with Physics 2)
US History
Journalism (if I get in; but it is very difficult); otherwise either AP Stats, Creative Writing/Public Speaking, or Ethnic Studies
Marching Band (optional 7th period first semester that lasts until 6 on Tuesdays and Thursdays)</p>
<p>Everyone’s telling me my schedule is murder (almost no one takes Physics with another science; occasionally with Bio, but not with Chem or Environmental Science), but I really want to take all the courses (I’d even take APUSH if I had time in my day, but APUSH is around 2 hours of homework a night and I don’t have time for that).</p>
<p>APs usually have an hour of homework a night (although Chem has ~1.5 hours), and Journalism would also have around an hour a night; English would probably be around a half hour unless I have an essay. I never do homework for CP classes at home anyways, and CPUSH is said to be a joke at my school (my cousin said she opened the book twice in the entire year and ended up with an A).</p>
<p>So that’s 5 hours a night? Not too bad on regular days, and on Marching Band days… Well, let’s hope I get less.</p>
<p>@Spiral7
APUSH is a joke. I am taking it right now as a sophomore and I have a 98. If you read the assigned chapters, you should be fine. I have one suggestion. Underline major events/important sentences/definitions in your textbook (light pencil marks so you erase them when you return the book). Before a quiz or a test, simply review these underlined notes. This makes a HUGE difference. Also one of my friend is taking AP Statistics as a sophomore and he finds the class pretty easy except for the tests. The quizzes are alright but the tests are very time-consuming and he often runs out of time. I don’t know maybe you’ll have a nicer teacher lol. Everything depends on your teacher.</p>
<p>Also Guys I’m thinking about dropping Trig, Biochemistry, and AP Human Geo.</p>
<p>@adidas15 It actually depends on your teacher for those classes; at my school, AP Stats is a joke (I don’t know anyone with a B) and APUSH is murder (I think there are only 1 or 2 classes a year of APUSH; you get two hours of homework a night and there are only a few As per class). It’s quite infamous, actually.</p>
<p>@dsi411 I can accomplish about 2 hours worth of ECs at school, (2:15-4:00) then take the late bus home (it takes 40+ minutes to get to my house so I have time to do homework on the bus. Then finish homework around 12:00. Give or take an hour every day. I’ll probably have to keep up with my ECs before school/on the morning bus. That’s about 15 minutes there. Oh well, sleep, TV, food, friends, who needs them 
:tired<em>face: :stuck</em>out<em>tongue</em>closed_eyes: Just kidding, I have time on the weekends and during school for friends!! I don’t have a lunch or time for breakfast, so I eat those during math class, dinner while I work. <em>sigh</em></p>
<p>@topaz1116 @adidas15 16 seniors are reportedly failing out of AP Stat after Q2 in my school. Only about 2/5 of each grade ever take it in their high school career at my school. We have multiple seniors in Algebra 1. 
We also have two PRODIGY kids in my grade, and the soonest they will make it to Calc is Junior Year. </p>
<p>APUSH has 2 HUGE essays at my school (I’m talking 40 pages as the MINIMUM)</p>
<p>At my school teachers give tons of work and grade harshly, therefore 2/3 of the student population has completely given up and ditch class to smoke ****.</p>
<p>so ya…</p>
<p>Does anyone wanna comment on my schedule?</p>
<p>AP Environmental Science
AP Language & Composition
AP Calculus BC (2 periods)
Honors US History ( I could take APUSH but I HATE history. The only reason I’m taking honors is due to a graduation requirement.)
Business Law
Gym (required)
Spanish 3
Intro to Coding/ personal finance concepts (.5 year each)</p>
<p>I am also taking AP Physics 1 over the summer</p>
<p>@tigerman333 Honors Spanish 3?</p>
