Official Unofficial Class of '11 Thread

<p>Tags are fun. :)</p>

<p>Don’t let the thread die!!!
ahaha</p>

<p>when are you guys planning on taking the SAT/ACT, etc.?
I don’t know when the ACT is offered, but if I end up taking the SAT (I’ll probably only take one…) I’ll probably take it in December. (Because I’ll have half a year of math) Then I’ll probably take it again later in the school year.</p>

<p>I had my first session with my SAT/ACT tutor the other day, and I found it really helpful so far. Now I just have to take a practice test before the next time we meet.
Have you guys started prep yet?</p>

<p>I have no idea when im gonna take the SAT/ACT i’ve started prepping for the SAT.
The problem is that the debate state tournament is on one of those first saturdays of december and thats something i dont want to miss. I was planning on taking the ACT in feb, but im not sure about that anymore.</p>

<p>What months are the ACT offered?</p>

<p>The SAT in november is the DAY after my birthday, so I’d rather avoid studying on my birthday. haha</p>

<p>ACT: there is one in september, december, feb, june, and i dont konw the dates in between those</p>

<p>Okay, yeah I think my tutor mentioned that ACT isn’t offered as much as the SAT.</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>when do you think you’re gonna take it?
np btw</p>

<p>It depends which test I end up taking.
I’ll take a practice test of both and then my tutor will determine which is better for me.</p>

<p>Probably in December-ish though.</p>

<p>My schedule:
American Lit - H
HTML/Web Design - H
AP US History
Anatomy and Physiology - H
Precalculus - H
French IV - H
AP Vergil
Next year I’ll actually have to do stuff…
I’m interested in Colby, Reed, Bates, Kenyon, Carnegie Mellon, and a lot of LACs.
Do any of you have suggestions for SAT prep books? I figure I should start studying but there are so many books to choose from!</p>

I was thinking about doing one more period, which is possible, to get some more credit so hopefully I could get out of some annoying prereqs.
Should I AP music theory (I have perfect pitch, and I’ve done violin/piano for 10+ years so it shouldn’t be hard) or ap psych+sociology h (semester) it? I have a little interest in psych… but idk.</p>

<p>angelican0t: AP music theory fsho.</p>

<p>Ap Bio or AP Chem? Lawl</p>

<p>I hope your lawl answered that question. AP Bio FTW!</p>

<p>lol…you still haven’t figured it out? We’ll take a poll, because I’m bored. So far…</p>

<p>AP Bio: ||
AP Chem:</p>

<p>AP Bio: |||
AP Chem:</p>

<p>In my school, AP Bio is easier than AP Chem. I don’t think either AP looks more impressive than the other to adcoms, but I might be wrong. Since you’re taking a lot of other APs, I would take AP Bio. </p>

<p>Personally, I prefer AP Chem :)</p>

<p>AP Bio: l l l
AP Chem: l</p>

<p>I’d go with AP Chem… just because I reallly hated bio freshman year.</p>

<p>^ Same here</p>

<p>And I refuse to take AP Bio. Besides, at my school, it is the easiest AP lab science. (We have AP enviro, Chem, Phys. B, and Bio).</p>

<p>And they go in this order: Chem>Phys>Bio>Enviro</p>

<p>Is anyone taking PSAT prep classes yet? I got one at my school at the end of the summer and beginning of next school year; i believe i would have to miss 2 of the sixteen classes at the end of the summer do to prior engagements (blink 182 concert (<3333) and family vacation)</p>
