I sort of wish I would’ve taken the lit SAT II on Saturday…I can’t do it in May and I don’t know how motivated I’ll be in June 
. If I take the French test this year, then I might not do lit until next year! Maybe never! :-*
I’m taking Math II and Chem in June (like tbh I’m also going to take Physics and I have no idea why I took Bio last October because I didn’t even do that well and I hate Bio). I’m thinking about taking Lit, but I also think that that would be too many SAT IIs.
Are there any other catholic schoolers on here? I am just so happy that this week is Catholic Schools Week we do not have any classes this week and we basically have a scavenger hunt tomorrow, service project Tuesday, mass and barbecue on Wednesday, and same on friday! YAY
Haha I go to a public school.
I’m applying to this summer program called COSMOS at the UCs, and my parents are trying to make me pick a CS-related cluster (basically the topic you focus on for four weeks).
I’d rather be a doctor (which I have been vehemently opposed to since I knew what professions one could be) than a computer scientist at this point, and 90% of the reason is that my parents have been pushing me to go into computer science when I don’t want to. They seem to think that the only possible career path for anyone who doesn’t want to go to med school (which they don’t want me to do either because my sister’s path was so intense) is going into computer science/computer engineering–the one thing I DON’T want to do.
Honestly, I’m so done with all of this. They think all of my interests are “weird” and “won’t get me anywhere,” but I’ve actually thought it out really well–not that they’d listen if I told them (I’ve tried). And then they joke about it to their friends and family when it’s actually something that I really want to do with my life and ugh.
My parents don’t know my interests. All I’ve told them is what I don’t want to be, a doctor or an engineer. I don’t want to be doctor because I can’t deal with people and I don’t want to be an engineer because I just find engineering kinda boring. They don’t even know what I do all day. I just sit in this corner and browse the internet the whole day but they don’t know what I do on the Internet. My sister thinks I watch YouTube videos all day and that’s what she’s told my parents. They also don’t know what I do at school. All they know about is garden club because they have to pick me up late for that. I’m not trying to keep secrets, they just never ask.
@Calchong Yes! haha we still have classes, but do some fun stuff too. I’m excited because the archbishop is coming to our school, and whenever he comes he gives us a random day off. But by the looks of it, we’re gonna have snow days tom and tues so…
@iamnotironman same we have a snow day on tuesday! Now I can catch up on my homework…
Is anyone here in the New England area? How much snow are you guys getting? Looking forward to snow days or not?
@penngirlpending I live in the Northeast but not New England. We’re supposed to get 6+ inches but so far we haven’t gotten much.
I live in New England and we are supposed to get two feet of snow and winds of 70mph so school is cancelled tomorrow.
I got a 97% on my chem final! Raised my grade in the class to a 91%–I’m officially getting a 4.0 UW GPA this semester 
(unless I managed to royally screw up on my Spanish final; although I think I screwed up, I’m pretty sure I didn’t screw up THAT badly).
I could have gotten a 99%, though–I got four points off because of labels (it was out 250), and another two points off on a multiple choice question I SWORE I put in the right answer for–like, I even remember the question. But apparently I bubbled it in wrong xD Oh well. The last two points were on a question that asked which element had the lowest electron affinity (hm, do you mean most negative or least attracted? I don’t know), so screw them.
@topaz1116 nice job!
@topaz1116 Are you Indian by any chance? Just wondering…
Great job!!
I am planning my schedule for next year (c/o 2017) and I am wondering if this course load is too difficult. Any thoughts?
AP Calc AB
AP English Lang and Comp
AP Bio
AP World (this is the first time my school has offered this) or AP Human Geo
Spanish 4
PLTW Human Body Systems
I swim on the high school and a club team and am involved in the BSA.
Dream college is WUSTL or Duke for Pre-Med.
@greeneggsandsam9 You should be fine.
@tigerman333 yep. Gujarati, specifically.
@greeneggsandsam9
Lol, I am almost taking the exact courses as you except for AP Bio and PLTW HS. I’m taking AP Chem and PLTW Principles of Engineering next year. I would personally recommend you to take AP Human Geo than AP WH.
Last year, 5% of students that took the test got a 5 on AP WH, while 11% got a 5 on AP HG. Plus, it is relatively easier.
Thanks guys!
No school para mi today, thanks to the snow. 
Which is good, since my Algebra teacher has no choice but to give us our Unit Test on Blackboard before the semester ends! It’s also the hardest unit we’ve learned so far, so that’s good for us students!
Yesterday and today is my semester break… and of course it snows! I would’ve gotten snow days anyways :((
