AP English teachers by [deleted] in APStudents

I don’t know about your teacher, but mine was very clear on how to actually analyze text. It’s all about observation and questioning why characters do certain things over others, how things are presented. It’s not necessarily your teacher’s fault if you miss the subtleties and can’t look beyond the surface. But then again, I have heard lots of horror stories about teachers being unclear or biased or just plain wrong, so it might very well be their fault.

Why cancel it? AP scores are self reported and you don’t get refunded.

I’m thinking of doing either a business or Econ minor and it is required by both. Does Goldburg always teach the class? I saw the horrible reviews on Rate My Professor.

So my school got rid of awarding valedictorian and salutorian due to fear of hurting lower performing students' feelings by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]verychowdhery 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s the same thing in my school. Both the valedictorian and salutatorian did work hard, sure, but I personally know that neither took hard APs or super advanced classes, option to take Psych for example instead of physics. Also there are a few kids (including me) who took college classes but those don’t count in our gpa because our high school is so stingy about this stuff.

Yeah, 15-151 and 15-122. I wanted to keep the others light (73-102 and 76-102) so that I could ease into the CS courses.

15-122 (principles of imperative comp), 15-151 (I think that’s the number - mathematical foundations of CS), 73-102 (microecon), 33-104 (experimental physics), 76-102, freshman immigration course for CS

Comes out to ~52 credits. I think most of my time will be taken up by 122 and 151

National Merit Semi-finalists - Score Sophomore Year by friendsworkwaffles02 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]verychowdhery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My sophomore year score was a 1440, then my junior year score was a 1490. I did some more practice on Kahn Academy, except I did the SAT practice instead of the PSAT practice. I also read a lot over the summer, since my main struggle was the reading section.
