我应该同时采取既AP美国历史和AP生物学?
我很抱歉,我不能在我的电脑上输入中文.因此,所有的zhong文,我输入的是从谷歌翻译.我一年前来到U.S,
im gonna be an junior next year,and im so confused about my courses.Im chinese,and i have only been in the U.S for a year.My English is ok,but i dont think it's that good to handle all the courses im taking next year.
Here is my schedule.
Regular English 5-6
Pre-calculas
AP U.S.history
AP.Bio
Drama
Health( almost like,nothing)
Im not gonna take AP USH if it seems too overwhelming when i take it with ap biology.I heard a lot of people say that they are the most challenging courses,but i really have no idea how hard they are.I would like to hear from more people who are like me.We all speak english as our second language and i think we share more ideas.
Did i choose wisely or not?Should i drop AP us histry?
Looking forward to ur valuable advice.the more perspectives your answer provides,the more possible that you can get the credits =D Thank you!

AP=Advanced Placement.it is to save credits for college so that we dont have to take that many classes.Colleges like to see students challenge themselves and get higher GPA by taking AP.APs r weighed 1pt higher than a regular.So my gpa will be higher if i take more,on the condition that i get good grades on them.BUT what if im pressured and all my regular classes drop because i run out of time?we r gonna cover about 30 pages every week OMG!But i still wanna get in a better college.
Here's my junior year schedule:
AP chem
AP Bio
Pre-calc H
AP English
USH
As you can see, history is my only non-weighted course, and hence, my easiest class. But then I'm more of a science person than an English/history person.
Note I go to a pretty intense high school (in the top 50), so the AP courses can be very challenging.
The AP bio test itself was changed this year, it focuses way less on knowledge, more on graphical reading. It's like the science portion of the ACT.
However, I will tell you that 95% of my friends took APUSH. Although history is pretty much memorizing, for the AP test itself, I need to remind you that you have to write 3 (I think) essays in about 2 hours. This includes reading 10 different documents and synthesizing an analysis of the issue.
AP bio also have free response section (FRQ), but you are not graded on grammar or spelling.
I'm naturally good in bio, I basically got ALL A's on every single one of my tests throughout the year.
Because you have to answer about 80 questions in 55 minutes and write 3 essays in 2 hours, I suggest that you do NOT take apush. There's no way at your level you will be able to do that. I had to write 3 essays for the AP English exam, and it was horrible.
But seriously, if the only reason you are taking AP classes is so you can save money and don't have to take it in college, you will not do well in the class. GPA is only 1 component of getting into college. You can have a GPA of 100 and still won't be able to get into any good colleges. What you do OUTSIDE of school matters more.
Oh and download Google Pinyin so you can type Chinese.
You go to Mills High?! Lol... That's a pretty good school.
