What the heck. No offense or anything to your teacher and the TA but I’m taking 4 AP’s now and if they think 3 is hard… !!! I’m going to take 7 freaking AP’s next year so either I’m crazy or… idk
It’s not too much to handle for anyone, I sincerely hope that kid didn’t get discouraged by their words.
Yeah, she doesn’t need to know your true schedule because it’s not like she can do much about it. That’s so strange, though, that she would yell at a kid for wanting to challenge himself and go the extra mile.
Maybe our schools are just different, but holy crap those exam scores are low!
I hope your counselor lets you sign up for the courses; you can do it, regardless of what others say! In fact, we can all do anything we set our minds to. It’s almost 10 pm at night, this is my second night staying up late for homework, and it’s getting to my head so I feel like being a Spiritual Sally for the night lol.
Hurculean stunts are the best feats in life
@Spiral7 I had my midterms back in December.
Also, in my school, most people take one or two APs a year. Three or four is very uncommon.
@spiral7 I said that I would take 4 APs at my school and some girl flipped out and said that 2 a year should be the max a student can do lol. I’m basically in the same boat.
It’s really annoying because last semester a junior at our school took his own life. He left a note saying that it was not due to academic stress at all, but some parents immediately pointed fingers at academic stress itself and are loudly screaming for an AP cap.
And then some kid told me that I would “kill myself out of stress” and another said that my parents should read a book about abusive, overbearing Asian parenting. And I go to a school that’s about 45% Asian…
My schedule next year:
Analysis H
AP CompSci
AP SpanLang
AP Chemistry
AP Statistics
US History
World Classics H (english) and Classical Mythology
@Spiral7 @Cornbread1999 Well, let me rephrase my earlier statement. My school doesn’t have an AP cap, but there are so many requirements and so few APs that the most someone could possibly take in one year is 5 (Two Science, One English, One Math, One Language)
World Classics H and Classical Mythology sounds fun.
We offer 28 Ap’s at my school… but some of them you can’t take like the AP languages–you can only take one with the language you go. So that 23 available AP’s right there. Some people don’t get to the math AP’s or all of the science AP’s.
My school only offers 13 APs. We generally can’t start taking AP sciences until junior year (doubling science is close to impossible with our schedule without dropping a class or two, since most higher level classes are single sections), and of course there are the two or three APs for languages you don’t take, and you either take Calc AB or BC, so most people can only take 8 max.
I think we only offer 13. APUSH, AP Euro, AP Computer Science, AP French Language, AP Latin, AP Spanish Language, AP Spanish Literature, AP Calculus AB and BC, AP English Literature, AP Physics C, AP Biology, and AP Chemistry.
It’s a lot for a school of 1.5k kids in PreK-12.
Our school currently offers 22. I know there are AP C Physics, Bio, Chem, AB and BC Calc, the languages (idk which), CompSci A, Studio Art, Music Theory, Statistics, Econ (micro and macro in same class), English Lit, Psychology. that’s all I can name. There are 8 honors classes–Bio, Chem, Geo, Alg2/Trig, Analysis, World Classics (every other year), American Classics (every other year), Physics
It’s 10:40 and only one other person has given me their data 
At this rate, I will have to finish my lab during lunch!
sucks. When I die, I want to be lowered into my grave by the people whom I worked on group projects with, so they can let me down one last time.
kidding. kidding.
And it’s like, 7:40 here
@Cornbread1999 It’s not even a group project, but I need data from everyone in my class!
I just got home to 76 notifications, most of which were from here…
Is anyone else’s email currently being shot down by college emails? Received about 40 in the past few days lol.
@topaz1116 I’m not sorry for (probably) causing most of those.
@apandia No. My friends are though.
I can get my temps in half a month yes!
YES @apandia they all have the same type of message like: We are impressed with your preformance on the PSAT you are a select group of students blahblahblah. There was one where it was an orange and it said peel here and my friend and I were making fun of it so much lol.
And Yes I hate group projects everyone is so annoying they don’t do anything all they do is talk about how they feel not the project.
@apandia YES OH MY GOSH I’m getting like five every minute from colleges I’ve never even heard of. It’s because of PSAT, right?
It’s been 3 hours since I asked for the data. School got out 8 hours ago. I still have one person’s data.
@apandia I got a lot of that type of mail last year. This year, I think i wrote down my email wrong.
yeah freshman year was so easy. im a sophomore, and its hard already. its only getting harder from now on…
