I’m really interested in pediatrics or emergency medicine. I have no desire to go into surgery though, haha. I can’t handle cutting into people.
does anyone else have 4x4 block scheduling for AP classes? Just realizing now how much of a disadvantage I have ._.
8 periods a day, with seven class periods, and only a few semester classes. So, nope
Well I have a block schedule that alternates every day. Hopefully next year my AP classes are evened out with 2 on A day and 2 on B day so I don’t flip my ****
@adiacs My old school(s?) in VA do that.
I love having a block schedule cause I get two days to do homework but normally I just slack off
That was me in sixth and seventh grade
And also now
“It’s not due today, it’s due eighth period. There’s a difference.”
I try to do my homework in the afternoon, but those attempts are usually futile. I have the same four classes a day for a semester, so I only get an afternoon and a morning to do the assignments.
@neophite That’s great! I managed to break 5:15 at a meet today even though my splits were terrible, got 5:13. So happy!
My middle school had a 4 period a day block schedule. I loved it and now I kind of miss it. Homework was such a breeze on that schedule. Especially, if I had stuff after school.
my school does eight periods on a semester schedule- no block
another high school in the region, though, does trimesters
pretty sure the Indiana Academy up in Muncie does semester classes, too
I’m assuming that you guys have heard of Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology. It’s a magnet school in Alexandria, VA, that serves students from 6 counties and cities; however, one of them is looking at phasing out its contract. TJ consistently ranks in the top 3 schools in America. I have 2 friends that go there.
Their scheduling is WEIRD. They have all 8 periods on Monday, and then they have 4 classes a day the alternate for the rest of the week. And 8th period isn’t a class, it’s a time for club meetings and athletics.
Reading the acceptances in the 2016 thread makes me excited, but I know that will be us in three years /
Kinda
@goldenhorde we need 4 years of gym, only 2 electives freshman and sophomore year, no APs until sophomore year, and we need two years of US history. We cant have more than two lab sciences a year too 
@literallyliteral last year for the state championship meet, our 400 runner got a concussion, so I had to give up my spot on discus to a 7th grader to run it cuz the 7th grader cried to not run it (he was a replacement). My time was a fabulous 1:20 (lol my mile split was like 1:26), and on top of that, the kid who threw discus didn’t even break 50, and I could break 90. The next week, he decided to try the 400, and he broke 1:00. I cringe thinking about it, cuz if we would have won discus, we could have medalled. sigh
@neophite what state are you in? FL?
My school is just your classic 7 classes a day, same classes for the whole year, but on your classic semester system.
@literallyliteral I do track. I specialize in the 200m dash, 400m dash, and 100m hurdles
@awesomepolyglot I’ve never heard of it! Mostly because Indiana :L
@IrrationalPepsi It’s so cool to see people getting in to places.
