<p>Next year will be my senior year and I really want to take as many AP classes as I can handle. I went to public school for kindergarten through eighth grade and I’ve always been an Honors student with all As (until 8th grade algebra.) Due to the fact that I’ve home schooled for the past three grades, I want to try to make up for it my senior year. The way I was home schooled was more like an independent study…I basically taught myself all of the information, did the homework assignments, and tested on it. I’ve kept up all As and Bs, save for one C in Geometry. The AP courses I’m interested in are all related to my college major, so they would benefit me later (hence the reason why I want to take them.) </p>
<p>AP Classes I want to take next year:
AP Literature and Composition
AP Calculus AB
AP Physics 1
AP Psychology </p>
<p>My electives will be:
Life Skills in Business (you basically learn how to live without your parents, how to buy a house, car, take care of a family, cook, etc.)
Print Journalism
Concert Band
Physical Education (required)</p>
<p>I do have an interest in all of the courses, so I think that will help. But how long should I expect to study every night? I’ve never taken an AP course before so is four in one year too many? I know I’m already behind everybody else. I’ve seen freshman plan to be in AP Statistics by senior year, and here I am with no AP courses at all. </p>
<p>Thanks for any help! </p>
