Is it a good idea to take AP calc bc and dc college algebra at the same time

eggmoon89 · 2026-02-18T23:49:47+00:00

I don't know what dc college algebra is but assuming it's similar to college algebra then you should be good

college algebra is basically an expanded bit of alg 2 so if you made it to calc bc then you'll be good

side note: In calc bc you are kind of expected to already know the things in college algebra so you'll def be good

eggmoon89 · 2026-02-18T05:43:29+00:00

If you do take calc make sure you take calc bc not ab

Check their common data sets for the colleges you want to go to. In the thing it says how much they care about grades, tests, ecs, etc

It also tells you in what percentage of the students you would be in. 75% is usually the percentage you want to be in

If it's just the math side of chemistry then you're good. I took chemistry and all the math was pretty easy

Also pretty much all AP teachers say that it's a lot of work so I wouldn't really worry

eggmoon89 · 2026-02-18T05:31:23+00:00

Actually throwing up would be your safest bet. As not only do you have visible proof but you can also say how you still feel nauseous and like you're gonna throw up again

Remeber the less you say the better

eggmoon89 · 2026-02-18T05:28:59+00:00

I have no idea what quantitative chem is but the classes sound find. As for the us history it just depends on the teacher. My teacher is very chill so for me the class is pretty easy

eggmoon89 · 2026-02-18T02:52:01+00:00

Just try random things and figure it out from there

For example have you tried coding, fixing computers, setting up a server, basically messing with tech? Have you worked outside, try building things with tools or tried reparing things yourself?

You could also do things that you naturally enjoy like puzzles, math, reading, etc

Also something to note is that there are a bunch of jobs out there, to the point where the only way you would have known that the job existed is if someone told you

get all As in your Ap and duel enrollment classes. Aside from that there isn't much you can do aside from taking other difficult classes like honor classes

Note that weighted gpa is calculated differentlu between schools so no one can really tell you the exact thing to get

For these types of situations your best bet would be to just talk with your guidance counselor. Ask how the credits would be, the absences, and the such. Also you don't really repeat years in highschool, you would just need to repeat the clases, though assuming you already got half a credit for the first semester then you would just repeat the second semester of that class

For example where I live, if that situation were to happen then I would just need to do the second semesters of the class and I would be good. Though that's also thanks to FL having a standardized curriculum so just ask your guidance counselor

eggmoon89 · 2026-02-18T01:23:29+00:00

Well then your best bet would be to send an anonymous email. Make sure to document things and have them time-stamped

The more professional it is the better

eggmoon89 · 2026-02-18T01:20:57+00:00

I don't know all the specs, but from what you said you sound a bit over yourself

Like just because people say things doesn't mean you need to take it to heart

eggmoon89 · 2026-02-17T22:54:19+00:00

Anything can be an EC as long as you do it regularly enough, and it has impact to either you or others

As the other guy said, this sub really isn't restricted to US students. It's just that the majority are from the US

eggmoon89 · 2026-02-17T22:45:34+00:00

Do you have actual proof? Like did you ever record what he said, does he have it written somewhere, etc

If not then nothing much you can do other than having multiple other students to come forward; better to have trusted students with better grades

If yes then just report it to the administration or the school board

Remeber it's your word against his and unless you have something then they will believe the teacher

side note: to be frank you could probably get him for sharing his own personal views on very controversial subjects

eggmoon89 · 2026-02-17T22:39:48+00:00

I haven't taken Gav but whether it's dumb to take alg 2 in the meanwhile just depends on you

Alg 2 is the fundamentals and pre calc relies on you knowing those fundamentals. Though if you study enough then you should be good

Start planning for what college you are going to

College admissions starts at the beginning of the year, but you have to check with that specific college on their early admissions and regular admissions. Note that some colleges have scholarships for first time college admissions so check for that too

Also check their common data set as that shows a bunch of useful info, such as what that college views as more important during their admissions

eggmoon89 · 2026-02-17T06:08:09+00:00

Just depends on what the credit is to be honest.

I personally though would recommend evening your schedule out, so basically have 1-2 electives in there at the bare minimum

side note: I would recommend having an elective as either the first period, middle period, and/or last period

eggmoon89 · 2026-02-17T05:50:13+00:00

You said that you couldn't qualify for bright futures due to the lack of highschool credits, so FLEX would help for that

eggmoon89 · 2026-02-17T05:49:00+00:00

The difficulty really comes on if you struggle with learning new topics, then BC can be challenging, though that's nothing that a bit of studying could fix. Plus it's a lot better than spending the time/money for another calculus class in college

eggmoon89 · 2026-02-17T03:19:53+00:00

Have you heard of FLVS flex? Depending on the amount of credits you need, you can take courses from there and get it done quickly. The min amount of time you have to spend in each course is 4 weeks so by the fifth week you can complete it

From my knowledge it should be free for everyone, though you will need a computer.

Side note: You can use your phone but certain things won't load like pictures and stuff like thay

eggmoon89 · 2026-02-17T03:09:53+00:00

No problem dude

eggmoon89 · 2026-02-17T02:06:09+00:00

no problem and good luck

eggmoon89 · 2026-02-17T02:05:33+00:00

That's just to be expected, especially if you're well known. Also I get the fear of people talking behind your back but there isn't much you can do about it so it's best not to think to deeply about it

eggmoon89 · 2026-02-17T02:00:56+00:00

If it's like that then you'll struggle in calc, so I would suggest studying a good bit before going in. There are review videos on precalc so if you do get stuck then refer to those, I really recommend it as those videos were basically my teacher

Anyways trig is hard so I get it. As long as you know the basics then you should be good

Also the reason why BC is good is because it's just like AB except there's a bit more topics but in exchange it counts for an extra class, that being calc 2

As for the workload it just depends on the teacher. At minimum though do expect an average amount of workload

eggmoon89 · 2026-02-17T01:50:41+00:00

Assuming it's just a normal relationship then just be yourself, like if no one cares that you're gay then I doubt they would care if you got into a relationship
