Examples Of Dear Future Ap Course

Dear future AP chem student. I am here to provide you with all the information about this course and to be entirely honest with you so that you may make the best decision about enrolling in it. I understand that choosing a class can be quite stressful and nerve-wracking. Do not enter this class with the expectation that it will be easy. This class may be your first AP course, as it was mine, so instead of starting with an easy AP course like statistics, you will be starting from scratch, which turns out to be a lot easier. I would have liked to know that there is less overlap between honors and AP chemistry than I had anticipated. Be aware that there is overlap—all of the first unit, for example. However, honors chemistry is not necessary to succeed. I understand that Honors Chemistry has a lot of homework, but AP Chemistry has much more. This class progresses much more quickly than honors, but you will be okay if you are aware of that before enrolling. Since I truly enjoyed honors chemistry, I took AP Chemistry. If you're in a similar situation, I highly recommend this subject because it's easier to gain a solid grasp now rather than in college, putting you ahead of your peers. …show more content…

I've always found that chemistry takes a lot of work, but when the extra effort is put in, the results are eventually worthwhile. Because they are more concept-based, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, and intermolecular forces were the areas that I found the simplest to understand. I found Kinects the most challenging since I was never able to grasp the fundamentals, the math, or the concepts associated with this course. It is crucial to have a firm grasp of kinetics, equilibrium, acids, and bases because they are significant topics covered on the AP Chemistry exam. I discovered that I usually strive to complete tasks at the last minute, and sometimes it works to my advantage, but other times it won't. And that's the hard

Since I was a toddler, I enjoyed investigation and exploration. Whether through trying to create a potato-powered clock or through pulling apart the wires that comprise an old radio, I have always had an immense desire to know the intricacies that encompass any item or concept. At my high school, AP Chemistry provided me with the best resources through which I could understand and engage with the complexities of the world around me. The curriculum incorporated more than just textbooks or powerpoints, but also hands-on experiences and real-world applications of the science. Thus, this course nourished my curiosity and inspired me to pursue chemistry in college and beyond.

The Chemistry AP class serves as a connection to the chemical dispositions of actual concerns facing society today. The Economics AP class and Government and Politics AP class I enrolled in have a growing importance to accomplishing my goal. Economics play a significant role in policy making. The more the policy affects certain business or corporations, the more those businesses will try to disrupt or impede those policies. Understanding the relationship between needs of the corporations and the needs of the environment is crucial in finding a compromise that will satisfy the wishes of both sides.

Dear AP Calculus student! AP Calculus AB has been the most instructive of all my classes during my entire senior year. Although it's challenging, I feel well-prepared for the AP test and am optimistic about scoring decently. If my score isn’t high enough to earn college credit, I’ll simply take Calculus 1 in college, where I’m extremely well-prepared. On the first day of school, you may walk into this class and, much to your dismay, find a seating chart displayed on the screen.

This years most challenging courses were AP Chemistry and Math Analysis. Science and math are the toughest subjects for me and I planned to challenge myself this junior year. I was able to get my grades up for AP Chemistry by retaking tests and completing extra credit because my test grades were low even though I pushed myself to study nightly. My strengths would include that I never throw in the towel and I push myself every day, every night, in every way to understand what I am learning and achieve what I am striving for.

During the spring 2016 semester I enrolled in physics II, organic chemistry II, and biochemistry, while also being a student researcher and participating in extracurricular activities. The combination of all of this left me feeling a little overwhelmed and stressed, to say the least, but I found a way to balance it all and still maintain good grades. I owe my ability to endure that semester to my ambition and the supportive community at Spelman. It was ambition that helped me through this difficult semester. My strong desire to learn the necessary material and have a satisfactory grade helped me by allowing me to expend all my possible resources to achieve the outcome I wanted.

My freshman year of high school was difficult for me to adjust to and I did not perform to the best of my ability on my biology honors midterm. Due to this discrepancy, I was unable to be accepted into the Science Honor Society in junior year. Although disappointed that a singular grade had the ability to decide a part of my future two years later, I continued to work hard, especially in my science courses. Junior year, I decided to challenge myself and take an AP Physics course, even though I had never taken a physics course prior. This class was excruciatingly demanding and a new experience for someone who had never taken an AP class before.

To some, Advanced Placement (AP) courses are strenuous courses and unbeneficial, but it is important to understand that they are courses used to prepare students for college. AP courses are designed to help students reach their maximum learning potential, while exposing them to the workload of a college course. AP courses are beneficial for students who wish to challenge themselves and increase their options for their future. One reason AP classes are advantageous to high school students is because they put them ahead of students who do not take AP when they apply to college. According to “The Pros and Cons of Taking AP Classes in High School”, the author Allison Wignall suggests that taking standard courses is not as impressive to the college

I only took total of 4 Ap classes in high school compared to many other classmates who took in their senior year alone. I feel very overwhelmed because I read a lots of informations about Class of UNC 21 and of those previous years who have the extremely challenging course loads in high school. This made me feel a bit of slacker; however, I want to tell the Admissions more about my story. One of the reason is that Ap classes conflicted my schedules, so I have to choose between a lemon and a lime. Ap classes will help me impress college more and save more money.

Honors Science is by far the most exacting class I have had this year. Honors Science is challenging because of how time-consuming the homework is. Students receive at least thirty minutes to an hour of homework every other day from this class. For example, last Tuesday students were to finish a buoyancy lab at home. In this lab, we were testing the density of an egg in fresh water compared to sugar water.

My favorite class in high school has been AP Psychology. Taken during my sophomore year, this class helped further my understanding about the human mind and social behavior, while also strengthening my work ethic as a student. As a new AP student, I was introduced to a higher level of academic rigor. I was required to study nightly, conduct research outside of the classroom, and also teach myself concepts on the subject that had not been covered in class. With hopes to succeed in the class and perform proficiently on the AP Exam, I was driven to work hard to get the results I desired.
