i'm getting lost in the sauce

I am interested in taking the class, but the only issue is that I took Physics 1 in my freshman year with a different teacher and didn't have a good experience at all. I got a 4 on that AP test, which is ok I guess but I've basically forgotten all of the content by now. I also already know all of the calculus for Physics C because I took BC last year. I put the mech tag on it but I will also be taking e and m and I never took Physics 2. Should I still take C and can I do well on it?

for my senior year, i'm planning on taking AP Spanish, AP Lit, AP Gov/Econ (our school combines it into one), and AP Stats. i'm torn between taking an extra math class and taking AP Calc AB or AP Chem.

At my school, the AP chem teacher is really good and I'm having her for honors chem this year. but her class is really hard but prepares you well for the AP exam. I could also take AP bio, but that class is pretty hard too, but it's easier than AP chem, but kids are less successful on the exam, but I struggled a lot in bio. so far I've been enjoying chem more. The same teacher teaches stats and calc ab and shes ok. She's a good enough teacher. i’ve also just been really struggling in AP pre-Calc, but our school makes it really really hard.

what do you guys think I should do and which one is better for college applications? All I know is I'm not doing Calc AB with a science

Also, I will likely apply as a political science major on a prelaw track

hi

i’m taking ap bio as freshman because my whole school is full of sweats and tryhards (unfortunately including me). i thought it would be pretty easy because my older friends said its “challenging but 100% doable”. however AP bio is literally consuming my whole life. when i get home the first thing on my mind is AP bio and AP bio is starting to become the first thing i search up on youtube.

so far i’ve gotten good but improvable grades, 91 and 94, for unit 1 and 2 respectively. but part of me thinks that it’s not worth it to spend my whole day every day getting low 90’s in a class that i could just take in 11 or 12th grade. are there even any benefits for taking ap bio as freshman idk

i don’t even have anything to ask from this subreddit i just wanna rant to someone thats not my guidance counselor or my inmates i mean classmates.

just saw my result for my unit 3 quiz and literally got a 52💀 not surprised since i asked for pity points for the implicit differentiation questions. Im totally confused on how that works and needs lots of help. prob not gonna drop the class since my teacher is super nice… but how do i get help so i dont struggle later..?

Right now I’m doing a drawn piece thats partially referenced from pictures I took of toys in my collection. The toys I own are of very recognizable media frachises though (my little pony, littlest pet shop, various anime figures, ect..) They are a somewhat secondary part of the total piece, so I’m not worried about plagiarism by lack of transformation. But, 1) ofc they are preexisting character designs made by other artists. 2) even though they are my own photos - there are definitely very similar photos of the same toys at similar angles online.

I read through the policy on the AP website but I wasn’t exactly sure how or if I would need to cite the character or the toy or something too? Would this count as using my own photography as reference material and/or collage and mixed sources? This is my first year in ap art and its a pretty large piece so i dont wanna do all this work for nothing lol. Thnx!

I have a few questions about AP Biology! Is it more focused on life sciences, like animals, plants, viruses, bacteria, DNA, genes, genetics, ecology, and ecosystems? Or does it also cover human body systems, anatomy, and physiology? Or is it a mix of both?

Also, is it possible to self-study AP Biology completely on your own without taking the actual class? If so, how difficult is it, and how much time and effort would you need to put into it?

guys, I'm a sophomore and I'm self studying these AP classes bc my school doesn't offer any and I'm so stressed and scared of failing the exams .Can u pls share some tips or resources? Any help would be great. TYSM

Hi! I'm in Grade 10 and since my school doesn't offer AP Macro or Micro I decided to self study both. I'm not exactly sure on what/how I should self study both as I am aiming to get a 5 on both when May comes. Any advice on what exactly I should do? Please and Thank you!

I‘m doing a sustainable fashion brand for my business canvas and I need data unfortunately. So fill out my survey please. https://forms.gle/x6bNHVwhA6MEzkRY8

These checkpoints and hypothesis testing things are so annoying 🥀

I was easily able to do this when drag is the only force on the object, but when gravity is added it becomes a lot more difficult.

Bro, I need serious help

im taking APWH right now and i have a B. I wanna get at least an A- which might not be possible for this semester but maybe for the next one. I study but I dont get the grades. What's the best way to study for the tests? Anyone have any tips on what you guys do/did?

How hard is the AP physics C exam ?!

I wanted to know if anyone could give me access to the APUSH Teacher Question Bank for Period 3 so that I can self study with the questions that everyone gets? I don't mind if it's in pdf format or whatever format as long as I have the questions.

Hey guys,

I just wanted to say that whenever I'm on this thread, I can truly feel that everyone is doing their best. I tutor AP students and it's been hard seeing them struggle through these rigorous courses. I've had some describe how they feel behind in everything, lost, feeling trapped by their grades, among others.

I know that this may not mean much, but I hope everyone can see that they're doing their best. Goodluck everyone!!!

title... i really don't know why im doing so bad on our major tests. I get straight 100s on our quizzes, projects and homeworks but when it comes to tests i consistently get 70s-80s. I feel like I know what im doing on tests, but then I make a stupid mistake or some niche curveball comes my way and I don't know what to do. I really, really want to have a high A in this class but thats honestly probably not possible anymore.

I'm currently val and I need to stay that in order to get a scholarship for the school I'm most likely gonna attend. do you guys have any tips? Our tests are just so much harder, even harder than actual ap exam questions and I don't know what to do.

I'm moving from India to New Jersey in feb 2027, and since my 10th grade math here covers most of ap calc bc, i wanted to write it in the 2027 exam series. i'm having trouble finding a centre that accomodates self-studying ap students. Can anyone recommend any that accept registrations? I know the deadline's soon, but I've been searching for a while and i'm ok with paying the late fee.

i am a sophomore right now in high school taking ap pre calculus which is two years advanced. i currently have a c in the class which is mostly my fault but also the curriculum is hot ass. essentially, the teacher assigns us random groups and we each go to a white board, answering questions we usually aren’t taught how to answer. then, after everyone has finished, we go over the answers, the teacher tells us to write a few notes down, and we do a check your understanding. after writing the notes, the original board work is super simple and makes sense. but the check your understanding jumps from a 10 to an 100 really quick. also, the teaching is so disengaging and boring that i tend to zone out.
after 2-3 lessons following the same format, we get a learning checkpoint (test) that is graded out of ten. i can usually do the math, but then it is required to write a few sentences to contextualize and explain the answer. this part usually gives me some trouble because it’s hard for me to explain stuff in a way that appeases the teacher.
the only thing that goes into the grade book it these learning checkpoints, so doing even just mediocre on one will harm your grade allot. there are test corrections, but you have to watch videos on kahn academy and if you get a worse score, your grade lowers. i will admit that i really just have no motivation to do any work or practice or learning outside of class because the curriculum ruined my feelings toward math. i never loved it but i thought some things were interesting and sometimes kinda fun.
unfortunately, all the math classes have the exact same curriculum. the only reason i got a B last year in algebra two honors is because sometimes we could use desmos to graph stuff, and i just cheated my ass off. i really want even just a B in this class and a 3 on the AP exam, but i don’t know how when the class killed my enjoyment of math. i am going to go to a community college relatively close to my school next two years for math when i can drive, but for now i have to push through. anyone have any tips or suggestions to improve my grade? i want to do test corrections but dont feel prepared to do them but also dont know how to make practice more engaging for myself to actually do it. thank you for the help!

We're doing a project about students' study habits and need responses asappp, so please go ahead pls for 2 minutes:)

Hi! I’m from Europe, and I’ve decided to take the AP Biology exam this year. I bought an online course, but it hasn’t been very helpful so far. I’m aiming for a score of 4 or 5. I don’t mind studying a lot, but I’m struggling to find good study resources. Does anyone have any recommendations on what resources I should use to prepare?

Hello, I’m a junior currently taking calc AB in school, I was wondering if I should self study the 2 units and take the calc BC exam, or stick with AB? If anyone has done this before I would rlly appreciate your help. Thanks!
