I get to skip fifth and sixth period (my two least favorite classes) tomorrow for a winterguard performance! But first and second period, I have tests. I don’t really care about second period since I suppose I’m relatively good at English, but I tend to make a lot of silly mistakes in math.
@topaz1116 That’s awesome! Is it the same winterguard performance that you did last time?
Good luck on your tests :stuckouttongueclosedeyes:
@The5458Captain pretty much, although we rewrote the entire ending because what we had back then was just filler stuff. Now it’s actually difficult. And we learned it all today… I’m not sure how the competition will go xD
Right now I’m working on my chem lab and the teacher told one period not to write the (8-paragraph) essay we do for most labs, while he didn’t say anything about it to our period. I really want to study for math and go to sleep as soon as possible, but I can’t if I’m working on my stupid lab.
@cornbread1999 probably stats because I like graphs and data. But, I am not sure what this course will entail (Workload, etc.) while I know that the AP Psychology is super easy. I think I will stick to stats. I will talk to a bunch of my friends tomorrow and see who is doing Psych because everyone keeps changing their minds as to what they will be taking next year. Plus, I do not want to be stuck in a class where a bunch of the people just think that Psych is an easy AP so they are taking it (its the same with AP Human Geography everyone wants to do it because they hear its easy but THANK god I am taking it this year and there are only 4 other kids in my class). But yeah I think stats may be the better choice
@Calchong ok good.
It’s best to be your own advocate.
@CalChong If you aren’t interested in Psych, definitely take stats-- it’s one of those classes that is helpful to have a good understanding of for life in general.
go with psych! colleges value a class you took in an actual classroom way more than a virtual course, considering the controversy behind taking an online AP class.
What color is this dress? I see white and gold.

@dsi411 this was essentially everything on my facebook feed. I see blue and gold though, so that’s a little odd.
Haha, I don’t use my Facebook so I wouldn’t know.
This was all everyone at my schools been talking about… right before i went to bed last night my friend sent me a picture of it and i saw white and gold but this morning when i woke up i saw black and blue (Same picture) it totally freaks me out
@dsi411 I love how the picture found its way to College Confidential! 
When I saw it at first I thought it was white and gold as well. There’s a ton of theories regarding why people see different colors (someone at my school was talking about how it depends on your strongest emotions 
) but I think it depends more on whether you have higher-functioning rods or cones.
@KE3299 That’s what everyone was talking about at my school today as well. Something weird happened with me because after I saw an edited image of the dress where it was darkened to look blue and black, I no longer saw the original dress as white and gold, but after I woke up today and looked at the image the dress was white and gold.
I’m considering dropping AP Psychology and just taking a STEM course. At first I was afraid that taking a regular class instead of an AP class would drop my grade, but I think AP Psychology is worth the same amount of credits as a normal class, and even if it isn’t, I’m considering dropping AP Psychology anyways because I really need to start taking STEM classes (though I won’t get any credits for AP Psychology). I’ll try talking to my counselor about whether or not the two classes ARE the same credits, and if they are I’ll definitely drop the AP class.
I just hope it’s not too late to change my course schedule for next year…
It’s white and gold, though if I squint hard enough, I see blue and black.
Does anyone have any experience with PEPI or Teacher Cadet? I’m trying to decide which one would be more beneficial or if I should take a more traditional class.
(Not on topic, but I’m working on physics homework and realized that we’re 750 pages into the textbook & that’s a lot of pages. We skipped three chapters, so really we’ve only worked through 15 chapters/ 650 pages, but…wow…)
I see the dress both ways now. Initially, I was hell-bent on it being white and gold, but a few hours later it miraculously turned blue and black. I was and still am freaked.
Somehow, I see light blue and gold (a little drabby though)… definitely not black. Maybe it’s just me.
Schedule for next year? What do y’all think: Junior year is shaping to be tough, I think.
AP Stats
AP Physics 1
AP Calc AB
AP English Language
French 3
Chem Honors (will take AP Chem senior year)
US Honors (I am taking an AP history class right now, and had to decide between AP lang and US… chose lang)
Band
We got second at our guard competition by 0.3 points (like wth). I think our ending was sloppy, since we learned it all yesterday (the day before yesterday?). I just got home, though.
I think I’ve decided to do this as my schedule, I turned this one into the office (just praying that it will fit with the schools class schedule since many of these are only offered once a day)
1.Church history/morality ( it’s catholic school so I’m required to take it)
2 Honors Precalculus
3 AP Eng Lang
4. AP spanish Lang
5. AP physics 1
6. AP Us history
7. AP statistics (they may offer it at school if there are enough kids otherwise I’ll have to do it on flvs)
@TitusX17 Your schedule seems really good to me. It seems like what I would take if I were at your school.
I finally chose my official schedule for next year. There’s a bunch of IB classes so if your school doesn’t have IB you may not be familiar with them.
IB HL English 1
IB HL History 1
IB SL Spanish 1
IB SL Physics
AP Biology
AP Calc BC
