I’m .1 away form a B+ and my Chemistry teacher doesn’t round 
Aw that stinks
I have a 92.4 in Spanish and I need to do well on my midterm in order to bring it up to a full A (92.5 at the least). I hate language class and am contemplating whether or not I should take IB/AP Spanish next year. Any suggestions?
I recommend that you take Spanish next year, since it looks good to colleges. However, don’t let that be the only reason you decide to take AP/IB Spanish. On the other hand, if you have another class you want to take instead of AP/IB Spanish, you may want to take the other class, depending on how much you want to take the other class.
Spanish!!! I love Spanish but I think you should go for it too! I am hopefully going to be in AP Spanish Language next year and hopefully AP Spanish Literature Senior Year! Spanish is awesome go for it!
@SirSly Also, 92.4% is not bad in Spanish. Trust me, it’s a lot better than what I have.
You should definitely take AP Spanish! It will be very beneficial, trust me 
I’m going to take it next year, and it’s not my most favorite class in the world but it’s manageable.
A 92.4 isn’t considered an A? What? mind blown
I probably won’t be taking Spanish 4 (not AP Spanish at my school–that’s Spanish 5–but oh well) next year due to schedule constraints, but I honestly think it’s up to you. Is there another class you’d rather take? If not, I’d take it.
92.4 is an A- at my school.
At my school, an A- vs an A doesn’t matter in our GPA, so I’m happy with just scraping by with a 90 in my classes xD All the coursework at my school is easy, but it’s still absurdly hard to get an A in courses 
@topaz1116 lol, I remember a college counselor saying that it was very difficult to get straight A’s at your school
Then he said that my school has a ton of grade inflation xD
Edit: Just in case you were wondering, we go to schools that are just a 30 minute drive apart
@Cornbread1999 lol xD Yet there are those twenty people who somehow manage to get a 4.0 in every class (although a few do it by taking mostly nonhonors courses/easy APs).
My cousin is ASB VP, Homecoming Queen, and she’s only gotten one B in high school (with a pretty challenging schedule)–freshman year Honors English, where she ended the semester with an 89.9. She also did freaking SIMR last summer. Ugh. Perfect people like this make me insecure.
But it also makes it hard to take all the courses I want, since they’re all challenging APs. Although I suppose that’s the point. If you take two AP sciences, Honors English, AP Calc, and APUSH, you won’t get sleep, but I guess they’re trying to discourage us from that.
I’m taking 3 hard APs next year (APUSH and AP Chemistry are supposed to be hard!) and probably won’t get much sleep.
Our A- count as a 3.7 and an A is 4.0… It’s annoying.
APUSH isn’t supposed to be as hard as Euro. And depending on your other classes… You’ll have sleep.
@topaz1116 according to our school profile, 200 people have unweighted GPA’s between 3.5ish to 4.0 lol
@mrnephew ouch, dude, my school counts A- as 4.0
@topaz1116 wait…I WANNA DO FREAKIN SIMR NEXT SUMMER. welp, looks like I’m screwed
@mrnephew At my school, APUSH gets more homework than AP Euro. We go into AP Euro with more background knowledge than APUSH.
