Every year in May, many high schoolers know that May is AP test month and I am no exception. Tomorrow I have AP Statistics. There's going to be probability, Z/T/ChiSquared tests, graphs, EVERYTHING. I've been trying to study, but it is just so dang hard. And next week is even worse. AP Biology and AP Environmental Science on consecutive days will surely test my endurance.
I'm a high school senior... I have already gotten into COLLEGE. Ahhhh my motivation is slowly dissipating. It doesn't help that people who've taken these test last year tell me that "Oh, it's so easy I didn't even study and I got a 4". I need at least a 4 to get college credit.
--------------------- On a side note, I live in eastern Massachusetts and it was 93 DEGREES YESTERDAY, and high 80's today. ITS SO HAWT

My highschool stats class was harder than my college multivariable calculus class....I absolutely hate stats, and I will never take it again.

Next monday is going to be all sorts of hell with back to back to back bio and physics
|
Yayay Calculus AP test on Wednesday..
On a brighter note, four more weeks of school!
|
Congrats on college, good luck, and as a survivor of 6 AP exams, I can honestly tell you it gets harder
|
AP Calc on Wednesday AP US History on Friday. Not looking forward to them.
|
stat is gonna be tough because my teacher taught us nothing.
|
Well at least I'm not new to the AP tests, I took Chem last year.
To anyone who is nervous about them, DON'T STRESS TOO MUCH!!! It's really ONLY a test. There are much more important things in life and AP tests 
EDIT: LOL I just re-thought what I wrote. Basically... if you have a rope and a stool... don't do it!

Good luck on your APs guys. I only have two this year, and one of them is delayed for tennis. Freaking $40 to schedule a late testing though, seriously.
|
stat was so easy...i think a third grader could get a 4
|
Good luck everyone! 
I took AP Government today. I feel that I did well on the multiple choice but not so well on the first two FRQ's. I think I dominated the last two though.
I remember taking the AP US History one last year.. that was actually a fun day. I had the most awesome class and that night got a girlfriend.. fun times, fun times. If you took AP US History, definitely take AP Government because you already have some very solid blocks to build on!
|
Indeed, it's going to be a rough two weeks. BC calc Wednesday, Euro History Friday I think, Physics C Monday, and Chem Tuesday.
Really looking forward to getting the tests over with.

I am in Boston and today was FUCKING RIDICULOUSLY HOT HOLY SHIT. No AC in dorms = gg.
Not only that, we cant even use water because of the water contamination. fml.
Back on topic, Good luck with AP's! I can assure you once you are in college, everything you learned in AP's will not be remembered.

what if life gave you 50 grand for doing well on those tests?
i took 12 AP tests in high school (didn't get credit for ALL of them but for most) and managed to shave off a year of school. that's a year of $56000+ tuition.
try hard. do well. make money.

Taking Calc AB, Chem, Physics B, Comp Sci A, and World History. Five this year, seven next year, 5+ senior year! :D
I think I'll do fine, but I can never be sure... if anyone wants help on anything besides Physics I could try to help lol
How late is everyone staying up? I'm aiming for midnight myself tonight. I think I'll take a break tomorrow (AP Calc AB Wednesday lol) and watch a movie or something.
|
Ive only taken AP History in High school and that was a joke. Dont even need that class in college.
-_______________-

AP Histories are so dumb... and pointless
Why do you need to know about Europe or US history if you have no interest in it at all? So many people take AP History at my school just for the heck of it.
Don't tell anyone... but I found out the secret to AP Euro + Show Spoiler +

Woo APs
6 this year. Took French already and I'll be taking stats in a few hours. xd
Worried about French (outcome), Stats (sorta, I want to get the 5 but I'm pretty sure I'll get a 4), Physics E&M (derp). Self studying Microeconomics so that might be a little bit difficult.
I dunno about you guys, but I have never had any problems with either Calc classes. 
Anyone know how much harder IB tests are?
|
5 this year.
Calc, Euro, APES, Lang, and Chem.
I think I'm set for Calc, APES, and Lang but I'm screwed for euro and chem.
GL for calc tomorrow guys.
