Music theory question

My parents are both musicians so they’ve always been on me to learn music theory. And I’ve heard from people I’ve done workshops with that it’s important to be able to sight read/learn music quickly when auditioning professionally. I took AP music theory this year, and I’ve improved a LOT even though it’s a wicked hard class (and I like math!). Before I could read music decently, and I have perfect pitch which helps, but now I understand it so much better. I just had my first music rehearsal with a theatre company I haven’t been involved with in a couple of years, and the difference is huge. That said, AP music theory was a miserable time and I’m pretty sure no one in the class has above a B-. HA HA.
