hello @cactusvase ! Welcome :DD
What’s your schedule for next year (if you’ve got one yet)?
@greenlegobrick What’s you’r motivation behind self-studying? Psych is interesting enough that I’ve been considering it, too! :v
@kelsey19 English 10 over here will be taught by a certain teacher I’ve got a love/hate relationship with, so I’m conflicted but excited for it!
he seems to like my writing, though, and he’s not the type to shirk reading (like the English 9 teachers were) :>
@OMPursuit Without exception, my school doesn’t let people do APs until junior year because it’s an intensive private high and our normal classes are already pretty rigorous. So I’m just doing accelerated classes because those are the highest I’m allowed to do. But yeah, this is my sophomore year schedule:
French 3 Accelerated
Chemistry Accelerated
Fine Art I
English 10 (no accelerated available)
Algebra 2 Accelerated
World History Accelerated
There are only 2 English 2h teachers at my school and the first is also the AP Lang teacher who is supposedly super strict and then the other literally gives everyone a 100 and just plays the Star Wars movies in class-- it’s like polar opposites
@IrrationalPepsi I have the Barrons review book too, haha. Thanks, though! @OMPursuit I’m self-studying because Psychology is an amazing subject! Also, I’ve read through the IB Psychology textbook and I found it fun and rather easy to comprehend, so I’m giving it a try. Why not, right? You should definitely consider self-studying for Psych, too, if your school doesn’t offer the course.
The other day I was talking to my friend and I was like, “I can’t wait till school’s over.”
Her: “I can’t wait till I retire.”
Me: (insert rofl-ing emoji here)
@OMPursuit The English 2 teacher I’ll have seems pretty nice, or at least she did when she came in and talked to us about our summer reading. I was talking to a couple of people who had her this year, and they seemed to like her but thought she graded harder than the teacher I have now.
Only one day of school left for me! I have a final first hour tomorrow but that’s it. I can’t beleive freshmen year went by this fast.
Lol I’m having early onset senioritis right now…IDK how I’m gonna manage to pull of As in English and Bio-I have 91s in both classes right now and I got a B in both first quarter.
So if I get a B in either this quarter I have to get an A on the final exam, and I do not want that pressure on me…other classes I have to actually completely fail the final to get a B so…
Also is anyone else being harassed by the National Academy of Future Science and Technology Leaders? The deadline was three months ago and I’m still getting emails from them…I hate science.
Speaking of which, my school is making me take Honors Computer Science because AP Psych is full…
@jdecker9 They sent me their stuff! Only one letter, though. I hope they stop; that sounds terrible… :s
CS might not seem so cool as psych, but computers can be pretty awesome. I hope that turns out alright! :v
I keep getting spam from some leadership thing. Based on my PSAT scores! If anything, my score would suggest staying inside all day and studying rather than leadership.
