    yea that's true. but if you plan on going further in college you might want to have college experience. for example, taking ap calculus in high school is NOT going to prepare you for calc2 in college

    AP classes are supposed to be hard....they ARE college level courses.

    I took AP Biology, Calculus, and German my senior year of high school, and would have taken AP Physics as well but doing so would have meant dropping my visual arts and graphic arts classes.

    I passed all my AP exams though (only person in my German class who passed the test, it was HARD....and I got straight A's in that class all four years with doing no work at all).

    I have a friend who took all AP classes and now he's in his senior year. I don't see how he can do it.

    Why shoudln't I take that? Although I don't get that subject due to the place I'm studying but it seems interesting. Stimulates the mind to think more. Science and Maths are my two favourite subjects.

    dont cry about it. you knew ap classes were hard. most of the time they give you a month or more to decide if you really want to stay in the ap course, so there is no reason for you to be acting this way. only making this worse for you in the future.

    AP Physics is probably the hardest AP Class. Not only is physics hard to start out with, and difficult to understand, you should also have to take AP Calculus, because AP Physics is all about calculus formulas.


    Im taking


    AP Biology
    AP Chemistry
    AP Psycology
    AP Math Analysis
    AP U.S. History



    I was adviced of taking AP Physics, but No Calculus = F in AP Physics.

    What do you mean by lying? I dont see how taking 5 AP Classes would be lieying?, its just I picked the easy AP courses, hard ones are Physics, etc. Psycholog yis easy, math analysis is easy, us history is easy, and bio is easy. Only thing I have to work for is Chem.
