is it worth my one shot at ED?

Well, let’s put it this way. At my school we have four day weeks every week until November. Then we don’t go to school at all in November because we have a program that involves outside exploration of an interest beyond the curriculum. Then we have four day weeks in February, and four weeks off when you combine Christmas and Spring breaks. This leaves us with not a whole lot of time for teachers to prepare us for AP exams. Considering that almost every student at my schools receives 5s on their APs, I think that the amount of work we put in for those 3 APs is far more than many students put into their 5 APs each year. So while it sounds lame at first to only say that we take 3 APs, it really is a whole lot more work than it sounds like :(
