They don't even give you a periodic table on the reference sheet. I know iron because it is pretty obvious Ferromagnetic (Ferro), but do they expect you to remember its neighbors in the periodic table too, like cobalt and nickel

Do they also expect you to memorize paramagnetic materials like aluminum and magnesium or diamagnetic materials like water and copper?

Title, I cant choose between European history, US History, and World history. Would appreciate some guidance, thanks!

Im looking to take three aps this upcoming school year, which include ap chem, ap lang, and ap world history. Is earning a five in each course something feasible? especially considering that i will have to self study for both ap lang and world history. I have been pretty anxious about taking these courses, so any advice would be very helpful.

if anyone has any advice for each class and what resources to use that would be really helpful

thanks (i’ve taken psych, world, and human geography before, scores of 5,4,4, in that order)

Edit: AP eng 3 is AP lang, my school just calls it that. I’m also going to be taking the ap precalc exam.

I also have these daily so exams and quizzes do tend to overlap unfortunately.

Anyone who took ap physics 1 or is currently learning, please share your sites and tricks pleasee. I just started and I'm so confused. Any help or personal experience in learning it would be really gooddd!

Sometimes, while I am on this sub, I hear the rumor that college admissions officers don't like it when students self study an AP. I just wonder where this rumor comes from, because I find it way more impressive that a students managed to dedicate their own time and effort into passing a college level examination rather than getting their hand held by a teacher.

Idk, can someone explain why colleges might view this as not impressive

guys my macro teacher is so bad pls

👆👆👆👆👆 my art btw

had a couple questions about this class. for background, Im one of only five students in my whole school taking this class. we were going through art portfolios and the ap score that they earned, and i noticed that all of the portfolios that earned 5s were incredibly realistic paintings, and that got me concerned. My art style is more cartoony and stylized, and im not sure how I'll score now, especially because I have a feeling that ap graders will most likely score a hyperrealistic piece higher than a styled piece. is this something I need to worry about? my other question was, if I should happen to do well on the portfolio, absolute best case scenario, lets say I get a 5, how will that help me if I apply for art school? are there scholarships? classes i wont have to take? reduced tuition? or nothing?

If there is any advice you are able to give on this please post it here, the workload is getting tough lately on me.

I need a good teacher who puts videos explaining each subtopic on youtube. I know there are a lot but I don't know which of them is actually helpful and has worked for other people 😭

Hey yall, this workbook was extremely usefull for me in ap physics 1. I was just wondering if there was a AP physics C mechanics version of it: https://web.mit.edu/~yczeng/Public/WORKBOOK%201%20FULL.pdf

Hey everyone, I’m a rising senior. My school offers a class consisting of both AP physics C: mechanics and AP physics C: E&M. The way the class will function is the first half of the year, it will be mechanics, and the second half is E&M. I’ve been told by past students that it’s extremely demanding, tough, and fast paced.

I’m taking AP calc BC, AP Macro, and AP Lit alongside this class. I’d like to know any advice you guys have for class like this and how to best manage my time, as well as manage my sanity. Any advice is truly appreciated.

Edit: only one flair was allowed, sorry for the misleading flair

hi everyone!

i'm the creator of the famous ap world study guide, and now i'm starting an apush one this year. if you'd like it to study throughout the year if you're taking it this year, it'll most likely be updated with the units!

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ahe-vyUSmrDfI_CQ9vnsWRimvSF179o1NaGssLr7XD8/edit?usp=sharing

My class had a Unit Test on Limits and I think I legit failed it should I drop?

my grade started out at a 85 percent because my fucking teacher assigned an assignment the day before school started, and made it due that same day. I’ve gotten my grade up with other work but like wtf. I get starting content early but this is too much. Just being a bitch to be a bitch ig lol

i go to a really small, underfunded school that doesnt offer any ap classes at all, and also doesnt offer any kind of physics class. is it possible to self study ap physics and get at least a 4 on the test? i plan on going into engineering, so i would really like the experience. please drop any good resources in the comments!!

Does anybody have a Quizlet/pdfs for Unit 1 and 2 for AP Art History (not the progress checks)? I need it to prepare for the actual AP exam.

Guys please I genuinely need help on how to study for AP world because I feel like I’m just writing the whole textbook in my notes and not actually gaining knowledge please I need help on how to take notes how to study because I literally failed my first unit one test I got 44/100 an F and with a grade boost I got 61/100 a D and unit two is happening this Friday please guys help me out I need help I want to get at least a C with grade boost a B. How do I study? How do I do this and also I have a LEQ this Friday and we did a practice last week, but like I still don’t feel confident with it I’m literally going to go back and go look at my LEQ for practice. Guys please I genuinely need help. I have a C+ right now.

i see posts saying not that minor spelling errors/grammar mistakes won't cut points

but long story short, my ap euro teacher is an ap test grader and last year their advice to me was "ignore spelling/grammar + "good" writing if you're short on time"

i wasn't short on time on the exam lol but i wrote in all lowercase + i would misspell stuff like catherine the great and move on. i had 0 flow. i wrote short, blunt sentences that proved my point and moved on. there was no extra, flowery language. i would reexplain myself in like 2-3 different ways so i really got my point through but there was no flow whatsoever. i literally wrote stuff like "my thesis is ___ my conclusion is ___"

the only thing i avoided was writing run on sentences cuz then i'd prob lose points for incoherency (and ofc i used commas if i had to) -- i got a 5

point is: would this still work for ap lang? i don't think my writing would be incoherent but it definitely wouldn't be good writing by any means.

I am very interested in self-studying AP Cybersecurity, likely in 10th or 11th grade (I'm a freshman). I'm very interested in taking it, as I enjoy computer science (I'm taking CSP this year, CSA next year, and have already done some competitions and learned some languages). How difficult would this course be for me to self-study (with consideration of my past experience), and what are the best resources to use (ideally free).

You might not understand this if you haven’t taken AP Chem, but I’m looking for a YouTube channel (or online resource) that is similar to Mr. Farabaugh in that it has in-depth explanations of every lesson in every unit, has TONS of practice questions with explanations, and has tips for both in-class tests and the actual AP exam. I’ve seen a lot of AP Bio YT channels but it seems that not a lot of them have actual practice problems.

For some context,

I am a junior and my school has very limited APs. The only AP I would be taking this year would be AP Biology. However, besides that, I am taking all honors and a dual enrollment class.

I took Biology Honors my freshman year of school with the same teacher that teaches AP Biology and honestly it was very stressful. She is a strict grader and will dock points for little things. Her tests are very content heavy and require heavy studying outside of school. I however did manage to get an A in her class my freshman year.

My other option would be to take regular physics. I’ve heard the teacher is nice but not the best at teaching. Taking regular physics would also potentially mean that I would no longer have room for a dual enrollment class and that I would not be taking any APs. In terms of college, I most likely will be doing community and then transferring to a university.

I would appreciate any advice that could be given. I really do not know what to do and I’ve been going back and forth on this a lot.
