Across more than two decades of exam data, the researchers found participation in AP tests were often split along gender lines. Girls dominated the languages, humanities and arts, while boys took more STEM (or science, technology, engineering and math) subjects.

Other Ok guys I need study material asap rocky

• Upvotes

Ok so I need study material to where it will drill info into my head. I’m the type of person who will eventually memorize info if it’s in a thing like blooket or gimkit etc. I need something that will help me visualize Ap chem and go back over the basics with me again bc I forgot them from honors last year. I need something that will help me remember rules for Ap precal and help me get better at answering questions. I need something that will help me learn apush in general. My first Ap class was Ap world which is what my school offers freshmen 😑 like idk why they offer world before human geo but I got a better score on human geo because of it so I mean good for that. This is my junior year and I would also like help if anyone has anything to study for act. Thank you for reading 😊.

Bio Tips and habits for getting a 5 in AP Biology

2 Upvotes

Anybody that has passed AP Biology with a 5, this is for you. I’ve been doing the studying, and I enjoy it so much but the tests we get are always some material I’ve missed. Please tell me how I should start preparing for the test as early as possible. Study habits, tips and tricks, literally anything. A 5 in bio would be EXTREMELY helpful for me as a soon-to-be biology major.

Question Why are AP Students so smart?

65 Upvotes

In AP Lit, everyone in my class, but me has over a 1500 SAT (im at 1190 as a senior)... They avg 10-11/12 on mcqs, I avg like a 7. these kids r literally ivy bound (4.0s, great ec's, great essays)...

In AP stats, I am the "low" for the past 3 assessments. I have a C, 80% of the people in my class have an A.

In AP bio, I kid you not. every time, people ask how did the class do and my teacher replies "everyone did well, except one person"... and guess who that person is every single damn time... I have a C in that course too. omg if I feel confident Ik that's not good cuz like that means I got a high 70...

I have the lowest grade in my class in 3 of the 5 AP courses I'm taking.

weird thing is as soon as I step into any non-elective class that's just non-AP... I have the highest grade...

Question Excuse for missing PE consistently due to workload

1 Upvotes

Hi guys, my PE grades are gonna take a plunge because I've only been showing up to my PE class first thing in the morning 1-2 times per week. I tend to stay up very late completing my work for a bunch of my AP classes and I often can't wake up in time, so I usually miss it. In exchange, I get all A's for all five of my AP classes.

My PE class only does participation grades and I'm a senior whose Q1 grades are going to be sent to my early schools. What excuses can I make?? What can I do? Reddit please help!

Bio How do I study well for AP Bio quizzes and tests?

3 Upvotes

I’m in 9th grade and new to AP classes and I never really managed my time well too, but I do ask for practice questions on chat gpt and other ai and I watch review videos. My grades are kind of bad and I really want to bring it up except all the quizzes and tests are hard and I’m not understanding the topics and even if I study for a long time I’m not able to apply what I learnt into other questions. I stay up really late studying, so how can I study easily, get good grades and make sure I have time for other subjects?

Other Made a free planner for juggling multiple APs: assignments, exams and schedules

2 Upvotes

When you have several AP classes, the deadlines and exams scatter across Canvas, Classroom and whatever the teacher says out loud. I couldn't find a planner that held everything and didn't look terrible, so I built one.

It handles assignments, exams (with optional study-progress tracking), recurring tasks, a weekly class schedule with A/B week support, and notes.

It's free, and I'd really like feedback from people actually juggling AP workloads. What would make this useful for you? https://planiverse.org

Micro Taking Microeconomics as a dual enrollment course, should I take the AP course too(self study) too?

0 Upvotes

Hi!

I’m a high school junior and I’m taking a microeconomics dual enrollment course at my local community college and was wondering if I should also take the ap exam, or does dual enrollment “make up” for it if I don’t take it? I don’t know whether to take it or not, and AP early bird test sales for in school + self study courses are gonna end soon. What are your thoughts?

I'm looking to apply for an AP exam at another school.

I've called a lot of schools & they either didn't respond or said they didn't have. The only school that had said they only had it for students of government schools.

(it's calculus BC)

Thanks for answering!

Other ap physics 2 rant

2 Upvotes

My teacher literally can't teach to save their life omg.

All we learn is the derivation of formulas for each chapter and then some experiments that we have to do ourselves. I get that experiments can help with learning but there is absolutely no concept building in my class; which is annoying because you need it to solve problems on your own.

Does anyone have any resources for physics concepts only/ heavily concept focused?

Research AP research help

1 Upvotes

Im in research right now, and although i think i have a decent topic, i just dont really care for the class. It brings me no enjoyment and i think i just mask how much i hate it with laughing with my friends. Its not even like i hate english, because I read for around 1-2 hours every day of a physical book, and i took seminar as well last year. I kinda just took this for the capstone but as the year goes on im starting to realize i just hate doing research. should i just tough it out or what? any suggestions welcome. also it feels like all of the assignments are just busywork, where i could be doing stuff that is actually productive and topics that actually make me want to study for them. sorry for the rant

CSA Opinion: CSA essentially a reading comprehension class

I've been taking CSA for about 4 months now, and I've realized something. This class isn't focused on programming, most of the class is just learning java terms and rules, and then you take a test on what is basically an english test disguised as java

Question Should I take the AP Precalculus exam?

1 Upvotes

I'm already in the class, but I'm not sure if it's worth taking the exam. Theres only like three days left for me to decide if I'm going to opt out. It's not like the class is hard, but I hear that not a lot of colleges really care about that exam, so should I just not waste my time on it? Or should I just do it anyways? Thanks!

Hi, I'm studying for the placement test using the paths. But I'm barely memorizing anything because it constantly just throws me new stuff. I just need a 14 in the test to get the class I need, any tips? Learning on what to focus on and tricks to memorize and recognize equations would be really helpful.

Research AP Capstone worth it or not?

1 Upvotes

I'm currently a junior who took AP Seminar last year and scored a 4. This year I'm enrolled in AP Research but as it gets closer to submitting AP test payment, doubts are forming. Our teacher teaches AP Seminar and AP Research the same period, so research gets much less attention, and we have to guide ourselves. I like my current question and topic but its only for the practice run first semester, not the actual exam. I just essentially want to know if AP Capstone looks good for college applications or if they don't really care, I know they most likely won't take the credit but does it look impressive.

Edit: I forgot to mention that I planned on publishing whatever research comes from this class, our teacher has connections and gets almost everybody's papers published at least somewhere. However, I can just publish my paper from first semester instead of second.
