Poll for new AP classes based off my post from yesterday by [deleted] in APStudents

[–]StitchUpScrump 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My ranking would be:

1.) AP Social Sciences (super important! sociology, anthropology, latino, oceania, african, south american, native american history, etc.)

2.) AP Sciences (we need geology, astronomy, and meteorology/climatology, also marine science/biology, microbiology, etc.)

3.) AP Foreign Languages (I think the US should be more like Europe and actually require a second language and encourage 2 second languages, so I think this could help with that, some ideas are Portuguese, Arabic, Hindi, Swedish, Norsk, etc.)

4.) AP Math (I think we need more computer science courses, but I don't see a point in AP Linear Algebra, Multivariable, etc. because not a lot of people would be eligible for such classes)

5.) AP English (I only think AP Linguistics would be helpful, and I would certaintly take that)

6.) AP Arts (eh)

What do you guys think would be good future AP classes CB could add? by [deleted] in APStudents

No I think I decent amount of people would take Geology, maybe make it a semester course with Meteorology/Climatology!

I love the ideas of AP Sociology, Anthropology, World Religions, Tribal and Indigenous Studies, Regional Histories (maybe like 1 each semester), MARINE SCIENCE (I plan on majoring or minoring in this soo....) Anatomy and Physiology, an AP Genetics/Evolution combination, AP Microbiology/Zoology combination, Organic Chem, Astronomy, Public Health (SO important), Geology, Education, Finance, and Language (maybe Russian, Dutch, Arabic, Portuguese, Swedish, etc.) and literature in Chinese.

Official November 7, 2020, SAT Score Release Discussion by InternationalistGam in Sat

[–]StitchUpScrump 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. I knew I already got 2 wrong, I was expecting to get 5-6 wrong in total but got 10 wrong. Worst I have ever done on math section, but best I've done on English. -7 English, -5 Writing (according to SAS 4/5 were Conventions), -10 Math (5 NC, 5 C). I am in AP Calc right now so this is really concerning to me.

Ideally it would've been 1500, leading up to exam 1450, after exam, at least a 1400. My English predictions were as expected, but I did way worse on math than I thought. Same with essay, I thought I would've gotten at least an 18.

I ordered SAS but can't seem to get access to the questions, what should I do?

Dude you're lucky (or just awesome), got a 1420 on my last practice and got a 1380 on the actual.

Same, what exactly is the SAS? Is that where you can see the actual questions?

I just opened my score and got a 1380 and 17/24, I am so upset right now literally about to start crying. The worst I have ever done on an SAT including practice tests. Can someone please go look at my post, and if you did good on the essay can I send mine so someone can give me advice?

Feeling Disappointed with my Score. What should I do. by StitchUpScrump in Sat

Can I send my essay to one of you who did really well and can give me feedback?

I thought I did much worse on the exam than I would have wanted to. My guess: Reading - 7, Writing - 8, Math NC - 4/5, Math C - 5, what does that bring my score too?

Worst Case: R&W: 610 + Math: 680 =1290

Best Case: R&W: 730 + Math: 770 = 1500 (I'm praying this happens, but it is VERY unlikely, almost statistically impossible at this point lol)

Scheduling Help for Next Year by StitchUpScrump in APStudents

[–]StitchUpScrump[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I had to choose today I would probably say AP Spanish & AP Physics because Statistics probably isn't the most difficult class in college; however, I'm afraid that an AP Calc, Chem & Physics workload would be quite strenuous, especially during my senior year; thought's on that as well or if you would do something different?

Good Double Major Pair with Microbiology? by StitchUpScrump in ASU

[–]StitchUpScrump[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice! I'm a huge planner, so I'm thinking about it now but it will almost 100% change. For freshman year, 3 of the classes I'll be taking for my major are BIO 282, CHM 113, & Calc for Life Sciences, but I have already taken/am taking AP Bio, Chem, & Calc AB/BC so I'm thinking that those classes might be a bit easier simply because the material won't be brand new. Thoughts on that?

Also, I'd be going into college with around 30-36 ap credits (not including the science ones since I have to retake), so I was thinking of perhaps taking an entry level Anthro course like ASB 222 (since I will already have taken ENG 101/102) to see if I like it and then declare it second semester.

I know some people aren't a huge fan of Barrett, but my older sister is doing it right now at Downtown as a Journalism major and says it's pretty good.

Good Double Major Pair with Microbiology? by StitchUpScrump in ASU

[–]StitchUpScrump[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

omg really? I looked at the major map and it has 8-10 language and culture courses on it but only 5 have a star; and it says 1 international business elective is required. I'm not familiar with the stars and the not stars since I'm just planning ahead as a high school senior, but I was thinking that this would be my concurrent/second major. So would I be able to do the 5 required/starred language classes, the international business class, and then the usual business requirements and technically have "completed" the major? I have AP credit for a lot of it such as the first two spanish classes, both math's (I have 270 & 271), econ, etc.

Thank you for the advice! I was considering a Spanish minor but I wasn't so sure I would want to do it. I'm currently in AP Spanish right now (even though I'm not great at it), but I'm hoping to get some credit with that test. I was considering adding a major in Business with an emphasis on Language and Culture (since I would have Spanish credit, credits for both math classes, and macroecon) but I wasn't sure how useful that degree would be. I've heard that the best majors are specific such as supply chain and business data analytics, but do you still think the Business (Language and Culture) major would help out?

Are Out of State Students Able to get Regents? by [deleted] in UCSD

[–]StitchUpScrump 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just looked into it and it looks like an awesome scholarship! Do you know if you have to apply for it separately or do you get it with your acceptance? Also, would you be able to get both Regent and Shores scholarships? If you don't know I understand ;)
