AP's
I am so scared, I have 2 AP exams this week--Biology tomorrow and Human Geography Friday.
Let's just say that Biology is gonna kill me--120 Multiple Choice Q's, 90 minutes + 4 Essay Q's, 90 minutes=DEATH!!!
Human Geography's not bad, I'm not too stressed because I just need a 3 to get full credit at UMD, yay! But AP Bio I need a 4 or 5
Has anyone taken AP Bio?

i haven't taken AP bio (you talkin about high school AP or college?) but i have taken college bio and micro bio (among other things) if you have a question......?
don't be scared........eat right and get lots of sleep (but not more than 8 hours), study what you need to and don't get stressed, and you will be a-ok.

So I took my exam this morning, it wasn't so bad. I skipped a lot of the multiple choice, but hey it doesn't count for or against me, so whatever! The essays weren't too bad. One of them I ruled, but the others were ehhhh. The last one, however, told us to predict some stuff and graph it, and so I did but didn't realize that we had to EXPLAIN our predictions until the proctor called time. Oh well, I'm done with AP Bio, so I am a happy gal.

Getting AP credit for college is definitely worth it. Puts you ahead of the game in your first year. Then you can laugh at the other students swearing they want to burn their textbooks for their core classes while you go do something fun. Ha ha.
