Repping class of 2017. I can’t believe we’re going to be juniors this year.
@Earthlingo me too…it feels like we entered freshman year yesterday…
@sprights Both scary and relieving. Like, I remember that first day of freshman year where I was standing around the halls like a deer in headlights trying to find my classes. With the way my school is numbered, I’m still going to have trouble finding my classes, honestly. d:
I’m freaking out. I don’t want to be a junior, but I want to be one all the same. While my classes will be 1000x more interesting, they’ll also be 1000x harder.
Yay.
Yeah definitely. ): Kind of stressed, I’m taking 4 APs this year, and Honors Chemistry.
I’m really nervous about becoming a junior, because it’s going to be a huge challenge adapting to the more rigorous classes. I hope the year will go by quickly.
Yeah, I’m taking my first APs this year…
and I’m taking four. Three of which are in the top 6 hardest courses at our school. And in the past, I’ve been very lucky to get easy teachers, which won’t happen next year because most of the courses I’m taking (sans English and US History) have one or two teachers.
I’m taking 4.5 APs and honors chemistry…ahh. I hope I survive…I’m thinking of doing speech and debate…I was in debate club freshman year (moved schools after) and this school is pretty competitive…I’m not the best public speaker but I won all of my debates that I did freshman year. Do you guys think I should join? I heard it is a bit time consuming, but I don’t know if its worth it.
If you like it, then do it! Esp. if your school has a good program; you could go to nationals or something.
Ahh I’m super pumped about next year! I’m taking 4 APs as well (the plan was 5 but my schedule screwed me over). Two happen to be the hardest APs at my school and two are kinda easy. I’m pumped. I’ve been waiting for junior year because now I can learn to drive (!!), get a job, do my extracurriculars and learn what I want to learn. I don’t know if I want to self study an AP (because I’m finishing high school with 10 AP exams). But I’m pumped for Sept 1.
Context:
Health & Fitness (required)
Honors Game Dev & Programming w/ XNA
Honors Spanish 4
AP World History
AP Physics C
AP Calculus BC
AP English Lang & Composition
Mine is:
Honors English 11
AP Calculus BC
AP Physics 1
AP Chemistry
AP World History
US History
Marching Band (after school whoops)
I’m mainly worried about marching band/colorguard, since that’s going to take up a lot of time, especially if I continue second semester. I love it soso much, but it’s going to eat up my time, especially in courses like Calc and Chem that get even harder than their already difficult selves second semester.
And, apparently, all the AP exams for my courses are very difficult. Whoopee.
Two history classes @topaz1116 .-.
Have fun with that
For sophomore year, I took 3 AP classes, but now that I will be a junior, I will be taking 7 AP classes.
APUSH
AP Gov
APES
AP Calc AB/BC (2 APs)
AP Physics 1
AP Lang
Woah, a lot of us are taking four AP classes! I’m taking:
AP Chemistry
AP English Language and Composition
AP Psychology
AP U.S. History
If the workload is low I might self-study AP European History.
Do you guys have your AP classes planned out for senior year? At the moment I’m probably going to take:
AP Calculus AB
AP Government
AP Japanese
AP Literature
AP Physics
Junior Year: AP Physics B, AP Calc BC, AP world history, AP Psych, AP Language + Comp
Senior Year: AP Chem or Bio, AP Stats, AP Lit, AP Gov/Econ, Multivariable Calc(not AP but), AP Spanish
I’ve already taken APUSH, AP Human Geo, and AP Comp Sci.
Senior Year
AP Spanish
AP English Literature & Composition
AP Biology
AP Chemistry
Honors Biotechnology (or possibly AP Computer Science… I don’t know)
Honors Economics (Required)
Health & Fitness
DE: Multivariable & Linear Algebra
Sophomore year, my APs were APUSH & AP Stats (self study).
I’m taking 4 this year as well: USH, ES, Calc BC Lang
For senior year I’m thinking:
AP Lit
AP Stats
AP Psychology
AP physics 1
AP human Geo
Gym (required)
Spanish 4
*additional elective I haven’t decided
So for the AP classes I will take:
Junior Year: AP Chem, APUSH, AP Lang, AP Psych, also taking Honors Precalc(since this is the highest junior math course my school offers), but will probably be taking AP Calc AB test
Senior Year: AP Bio, AP Stats (possibly), AP Lit, AP Spanish, AP Gov//Econ. , AP Calc BC
I’ve already taken AP World. I might consider self-studying some other APs too 
I’m honestly more worried about SAT and ACT test scores than anything else.
I’m taking:
CP Pre-Calc
Honors Chemistry
Astronomy
AP Biology
AP Psych
AP Lang
AP US His
I haven’t decided on exactly what courses I want to take my senior year. I might take Early Childhood (I’m kind of steering towards the Occupational Therapy route). I’m going to try and take a number of APs, but I think I’m just going to self-study AP Environmental, since it’s kind of the class students take if they’re too scared to take physics. I might do AP Physics 1, since I’ve heard that it’s not too challenging. I’m not the best mathematically, so I’m trying to kind of take it easy on those kinds of courses, though, so not too sure about physics.
I’ve only taken AP Human Geo (freshman) and AP World History (sophomore), so I’m not too sure how I’m gonna do. I might take AP Stats, but at my school, it’s almost all sophomores that take it, so I don’t know if I wanna do that as a senior. Might self-study!
If any of you would like to keep in touch and help study for certain APs, I’d really really appreciate it. I kind of need study buddies online, since I don’t have too many friends going the AP-driven route.
Thanks!
Senior year? I don’t want to think about it but I have.
Junior year:
AP Physics
AP English Language
AP US History
AP Comp Sci
Honors PreCalc and AP Calc A
Honors Chem
Yoga (required…sigh.)
I’m also doing psych 101 and sociology 101 if I have time, but if I do debate I probably won’t take it. I kinda want to though.
Senior year:
AP Calc BC
AP Chem
AP Lit
AP Gov
Senior board (hopefully I get chosen!)
Honors physiology and anatomy, if I have space in my schedule.
My district requires us to do “service learning”, like being a TA or something, so I might have to do that. I’m not sure if I’ve gotten credit for it yet, I’ll have to check.
