<p>I’ve known Californian’s who call California Cali when talking with out-of-state people. It’s not uncommon.</p>
<p>Oh, and, 2011 > 2012… come on… 1, 2??</p>
<p>but 2010 > 2011 > 2012, that’s it…</p>
<p>“Can you not do APs until Junior year Arquellania?”</p>
<p>No APs until Junior year. Block schedule…</p>
<p>“Your sports count as classes? I do softball but it is after school 2 hrs each day not a class during school. That must stink.”</p>
<p>It depends on the day. Sometimes they call you down during class (studies, usually), or you have to go to practice during lunch. There’s also afterschool practice.</p>
<p>YAYAYAY BUMPING THIS THREAD -_- </p>
<p>Seriously though, no college should accept someone who cannot form proper sentences and use proper grammar. “should have got” <<<< what? And the continued use of apostrophes to form a plural and the ever-present use of “your” instead of “you’re” is really just embarrassing…</p>
<p>I’m just surprised these mistakes haven’t garnered more abuse from other posters than they have already. CC was being nice to you, early_college.</p>
<p>ohmygod ohmygod ohmygod ohmygod ohmygod :O</p>
<p>^Don’t hurt yourself</p>
<p>don’t worry: I found a paper bag</p>
<p>I’m going to send AOM’s multi a series of PM’s to finish this off</p>
<p>hahahaha the first page of this thread is so angry.</p>
<p>Why are you still on CC? Shouldn’t you be enjoying college life? Get off the high school life section, please! Also, like I care about my grammar on CC! Uh, no! I got a 93 in Honors Language Arts, :)</p>
<p>OK, but is that a frito on your shoulder? Or is it Ruffles?</p>
<p>Wait you only got a 93? lawls</p>
<p>It was the 2nd highest grade, :)</p>
<p>But anyways this is suppose to be the class of 2012 thread!</p>
<p>yes, it’s supposed to be, but it doesn’t look like there are many here yet.</p>
<p>Or maybe they’re just scared.</p>
<p>Yeah, well just wait a year or two!</p>
<p>OMG. I just read the majority of this thread. Hi-la-ri-ous.</p>
<p>“early_college” has some pretty silly posts around the first page.</p>
<p>So, I’ll start off with myself…
I’m a freshman (Class of '13, bay-beh!), and please get off my case for not being a sophomore this year. Here’s mah schedule:</p>
<p>PAP English I
PAP World Geography
AP Calculus BC
PAP Biology
PAP French II
Introduction to Electrical Careers
Art
Tennis</p>
<p>I’m self-studying AP Human Geography and Physics this semester.
Here’s my schedule for next year:</p>
<p>PAP English II
AP World History
AP Statistics
Differential Equations at my local CC
Pre-AP Chemistry
AP Physics C
Pre-AP French III
Scientific Research & Design: Engineering
Debate I</p>
<p>What’s your schedule right now, early-college? Do you still aspire of going to Simon’s Rock?</p>
<p>@fireflake, BC during your freshman year? Wow. </p>
<p>Be careful to fully absorb the material covered in your Calculus curriculum as Physics C is extremely dependent upon a fluent and flawless conceptual and practical understanding of Calculus, including non-cartesian forms (Vector calculus is the worst of it however, so you should be fine). But as you will be taking Diff Eq during your sophomore year (to which I must once again exclaim: Wow), I’m certain that you will do fine on Physics C, as many of the more abstract mathematical concepts presented to most Physics students are covered in Diff Eq. </p>
<p>I applaud you on your initiative, although try not to push yourself over the edge, as I too had as ambitious of a schedule as you had during my Freshman and Sophomore year, yet I couldn’t adequately deal with the immense pressure of my course-load, as I had on average a cumulative of less than 10 hours of sleep per school week, and so I broke down during the last two weeks of my Sophomore year. It took me all of my Junior year to recover, and even to this day I can still feel the effects of my self imposed sleep deprivation. My advice to you, and this is in full sincerity, is to lighten up your workload as you’ll never truly realize how much damage it will inflict on your body and mind until it’s too late.</p>
<p>We don’t have Pre AP classes, but you have a great sch! I honestly don’t remember the whole thread. I don’t go on CC as much as I use to, thank god! </p>
<p>My sch for this year includes:
AP World History
Int Geom
Honors Chemistry
Advanced Drama
French I</p>
<p>I obviously do not have a fantastic sch, but that was the most rigours I could have taken except for CP Math. I took math last year and got a D in honors. I chose to take Drama and AP Human instead of French last year. I regret taking French though!</p>
<p>I never applied to Simon’s Rock. I didn’t think it was for me and had many reasons why I did not. I have a 3.333 GPA, so I’m not your typical CC student. My goal is to get a 3.5-3.6 by senior year and my top choice is NYU.</p>
<p>My schedule for this year includes:
Accelerated English II
Spanish II
AP European History
Honors Algebra II/Trig
Chemistry
Tennis</p>
<p>My grades at the moment are horrible…I have 89 %'s in most of my classes…pretty depressing 
And a C in Euro :D</p>
<p>Wow, I seriously pity you guys.</p>
<p>I seriously believe that everyone on CC is insanely smart. Is 89% really considered a very low average? I’m relatively new to CC so I don’t really know the standard but after reading all those college posts, I feel very scared.
I have about an 89% for IGCSE biology too because I messed up one test. Gosh, I hope I’m not screwed for college.</p>
<p>Oh my God, I can’t believe this thread still lives.</p>
<p>Especially with all of the hate it got before. ■■■■■.</p>
<p>Failboat, I think a large majority of CC users are the type who take on way more than they can handle when they begin high school. Thankfully, I realized this before I got into a situation like yours, sleeping less than 10 hours a week. I’m still working on tying up all loose ends with my responsibilities so I can have some more free time for myself, though :(</p>
<p>Greenbean, yeah, most of the kids here aren’t average. I find it kind of sad that early_college says he isn’t the ‘typical CC student’ (i’m assuming he meant this negatively) just because he has a 3.333. That’s what, mostly As and Bs, unless you have tons of good grades and a couple of really bad ones? Definitely not bad.</p>
<p>I feel as if my perspective has changed a lot this year. On one hand, I’m afraid that by being less focused I’ll make too many mistakes. On the other hand, I realized I was pretty d*** obsessed, which is far less healthy than focused.</p>
<p>p.s. one 89% isn’t going to make much of a difference in the college admissions process, especially not in a harder course.</p>
