For those who don't know, Advanced Placement (shortened AP) is a series of tests designed and administered by College Board. They are scored one to five, and one who passes with a high enough score (usually 3 or above) can earn credit at many U.S. universities. AP also refers to classes in high schools that prepare students for these tests.
So this is the thread for all who are taking AP tests in the future and/or are taking AP classes. What classes are you taking? How are things going? Studying well? Any studying tips? Any funny AP stories? Any general thoughts on the difficulty, content, or general character of anything related to AP anything is welcome in this thread. This thread isn't even restricted to the U.S. only. Comments on AP analogues, like the International Baccalaureate (IB), are also welcome.
Personally, I'm taking four AP classes this year, my junior year. They are AP Statistics, AP U.S. History (shortened APUSH), AP English, and AP Physics I. Classes are pretty easy and my grades are good, but I'm worried about the tests. I've already taken two AP tests my sophomore year (AP Computer Science and AP World History) and I did acceptably on those, but four AP tests might be overload for me.
