I've been in 2 AP classes so far. First was AP European History. Huge mistake. Everybody who took the class struggled to get even a B, mainly because the teacher never actually taught us. He just gave us work, made us do it, and expected us to just read it all from the text book. He hardly ever discussed anything, and when he did, the depth of it was superficial at best. Ultimately, I passed with a C-, and I failed the AP Exam at the end of the year.
This year I'm in AP Literature & Composition, which is a pretty decent class. We just read novels, write essays on them, read and brown townyze poetry. It's cool, but I'm not too great at it. Luckily, there's enough work that I can pass with a decent grade (C+ to a B). Hopefully I can pass the AP Exam this year with a good (or even minimal) score.
Next year, I plan to take AP Government & AP Economics (semester classes), and I'm contemplating taking AP Calculus or AP Statistics for my math class.
