@thunderlight8 You are so lucky!! At my school, we can only take one AP course (AP Psychology) in freshman year, and up to 4 in sophomore year!
*Advanced courses are basically Honors/Pre-AP Courses at my school.
Hey all. Iām a fellow student in the class of 2020. Just wanted to say hi. Your classes compared to mine seem so much more difficult even though Iām in advanced. Hehe.
What are you taking right now/next year?
Hey I am also in the class of 2020. This year I am taking:
Precalc Honors
AP Statistics
Chemistry Honors
AP Euro
English 9 Honors
Latin 3
Concert Band
Next year I will (hopefully) be taking:
AP Calculus (probably BC)
AP Chemistry
Physics Honors
APUSH
English 10 Honors
Health (half year)
Ceramics (half year)
Concert Band
@CiaraFin Wow! That looks really hard! Is it a huge work load?
This year isnāt so bad because freshmen are required to have at least two study halls per week and lunch four days, so I can do a lot of homework then. Also, my chemistry teacher lets us do a lot of homework in his class, and when I finish that, I can work on math. I think next year will be a lot harder for me.
For me, itās the opposite where this year is harder than me because I only have a free once every other week, and those days where teachers decide they hate life and assign homework from heaven to earth, a free would be much appreciated lol.
Iām currently taking:
Honors Spanish 2
Chamber Ensemble (band)
Algebra 2
PE/Gym
Principles of Biomedical Science
Honors Chemistry
Honors English 9
Iām still undecided on what to take next year. I have to take some sort of world history and I was going to take Geography and History but then I heard it was a āblow-off classā that the goof-offs take and itās the easiest history class in the school so Iām leaning towards regular World History instead (itās a little bit harder).
Iām not sure if I want to do Honors English 10 next year. I have a solid A in honors right now (technically, itās an A+ for the semester but my teacher hasnāt graded anything major yet) but I donāt really like the class and it stresses me out. But I donāt know; I donāt really want to drop it next year either because in regular English 10 they read the same book we read in advanced English 8 last year, and it might be too easy.
I want to do Honors Precalc and Trig next year because Iāve felt kinda dumb having dropped honors to take regular algebra 2 this year, but I talked to the honors Precalc teacher and she said Iād definitely struggle even having the highest grades in regular this year. And honestly I donāt think struggling in an honors class is going to make me feel less dumb than taking regular. If that made sense.
I donāt like band class and if I dropped it Iād be able to take AP CS Principles, which I think would be helpful since itād be my first AP class and because Iām interested in the subject. But the band directors would be mad if I quit, plus I enjoy music, but I canāt stand class. Iād have to quit my music extra curriculars too, and I donāt want to quit music, just band. Most of my friends are quitting and itās hard to find freshmen who arenāt quitting. Even though I donāt want to stop playing oboe altogether, Iām afraid that with my workload and schedule itās not completely realistic that I would add private lessons or an outside ensemble to my after-school activities.
Since Iām taking genetics, a one-semester class, I have space for another one-semester elective. If I donāt take AP CS Principles, Iāll take Intro to Computer Science, but Iām not real excited for that because the material is what I learned back in 6th grade with mostly block coding on Scratch. If I do take AP CS Principles, I could take Painting 1 or Peer Tutoring/Special Needs or Organic and Biochemistry.
I think the only things I know for certain are Honors Spanish 3, Genetics, and Human Body Systems. Lol.
This Year:
Chemistry Honors
Algebra II/Trig Honors
English I Honors
Metalworking I
French I
Water Polo
Next Year:
AP Chemistry
AP World History
Pre-Calculus Honors
French II Honors
English II Honors

Hey guys! For my school sophmores arenāt allowed to take APs so the classes Iām taking next year are
Honors Algebra II/Trig
Honors Chem
Honors English 2
French 3
Global Studies
I feel you. At my school, sophomores can take APs but there are only 3 AP histories for sophomores along with AP Computer science principles. I have multiple friends and classmates who want to take an AP science class AND already have the prerequisites but arenāt allowed to take the AP classes because theyāre ātoo youngāā¦ even if theyāre prepared. Luckily I wasnāt planning to take those classes but it really stinks for people who were.
Another class of 2020 here (just registered to start participating on this thread; glad to find this board/forum)
My classes this year:
English 1(h)
A Mandorary Writing course
Spanish 2(h)
Biology (h)
Chemistry (h)
Pre-Calculus (h)
AP World History
May: self-study AP Statistics (not sure yet if I will do this - waiting for approval from GC, will know by Mar 1)
Summer:
online health course and possibly a 3-week math camp; 3 weeks vacation and chill out
Clubs:
Robotics (no cuts), Math club (varsity), Science Olympiad and Bowl (varsity), Chess (individual); Tennis - tryouts are next week, may not make it to varsity team, possibly JV.
Next year (our class selection completed couple weeks ago):
English 2(h)
Spanish 3 (h)
AP Calculus AB (we are not allowed to take BC without AB)
AP Physics 1
AP Physics 2
AP Govt and Politics
Clubs next year: same as above+debate
Anyone did self-study for AP Stats? is it doable and worth taking as self-study (i.e. does it add any more value to resume for college admission purposes). Math is my main strong subject and will be taking Calculus BC in junior year. BC is highest level course at school; if Iām allowed to take self-study Stats AP this May - plan is to take multi-variable calculus in a community college in the senior year; otherwise my senior year math course will be Stats AP.
Any comments/suggestions ?
Hi guys, so happy to hear everyone is doing fine.
My courses this year:
College Prep Chem
Art I
Honors English I
Spanish I
Honors Geometry
Health I
Honors World History
Summer:
Self study biology, algebra II, etc, etc
Possibly take summer courses for algebra II (I am not sure how the summer program works at my school, but apparently I need an 85 or above to pass H-Geo, and I am close to it but if I do not pass, Im hoping I can take it or the following class to get myself back on track.
Recommendations arent made yet but I am pretty sure Ill get into the next honors or AP science class or english class.
My schedule looks pretty shitty compared to others. Taking AP this year or the next sounds difficult. My options are very limited, especially with clubs and classes.
Wow you all go to super overachieving schools 
I go to a pretty poor high school with not very rigorous courses
However next year im transferring to a new, overachieving high school lol
So my question is, if you go to a high ranked school (top 1000) how hard are the academics? Do you still have time for extra curriculars and whatnot? Because i dont want to end up crashing hard at my new school
@catsarecute32 I donāt go to an amazing school (my classes are nothing compared to some of these posters @-) ) but we are top 1000. The difficulty really depends on your ability and the classes you choose. Many of my friends and I are taking advanced courses and still have time for a couple sports and a few clubs, but if you struggle in a certain subject than you may have to spend more time at it. It really depends on you and the schoolās focus. (Our school is very sports-focused, so we are sort of encouraged to join a team, for example.)
