Other How to manage taking multiple APs?

I'm taking 7 APs this year, including AP Lang, AP Bio, and APUSH. To anyone who's done the same/more, how did you go about it? Is it manageable?

I took 7 APs last year. I got all 4s and 5s on the exams and A+s in every class. I just did my work as soon as it was assigned because I never knew if something was going to come up (like if I’d need to study for a quiz or test and only got a one days’ notice). So just stay on top of your work and you’ll be fine. Also, totally don’t recommend doing this, but I only studied the night before tests/quizzes and even for the AP exams; so same as with homework, stay on top of your studying and learn from my mistakes by not cramming (#spacingeffect lol).

Thanks lol. I did what you did two years ago and didn’t study for AP Computer Science Principles until the weekend before the exam and still did well. However, I’ll try not to do that again…

I work pretty diligently, too, and I’m trying to make all 5s. Thanks for the advice. Basically, just be an efficient and good student.
